Here's a little update... quite a lot has happened to some since I last posted...
I am still a hard worker for my group, though I just took my first venture away from the place I spawned in. I had to give some things to someone, but they weren't there, so I'm hoping the person I entrusted will give them to the person for me. I'm almost home again and I'm glad. There are many things I hope to find upon reaching home.
I am still with my wonderful boyfriend. He's so good to me, and I try to be good back. We're building our own home now and I have finally gotten that beautiful cotton ensemble that I've always wanted. I even got him a few things too! All that hunting sure did pay off, no matter how heavy the parts were! I still hunt every day and try to get those evil sheep and I just increased in my hunting prowess. Life is definitely good for me.
I am still in the small town, dedicated to its cause. The leader has passed on, and it was a hard, shocking reality. He definitely won the award for sleeping too long. But we'll keep building up our town and make it everything he dreamed of it being!
I have awakened and I've been making much more effort. Things were going alright, but the only person with a key to a locked building had to go help with some issues in a nearby town and now I've had to take off after a thief. I hope that everything is alright back home, but I'm determined this thief won't get away with their impertinence.
I am dead. I did make it back, but now I am dead. It's my own fault though.
I am still in the same place. Time is inconsequential to me; it is some sort of paradise and world away from the worlds. I have seen maybe one more person come through, and I'm hoping they'll come back with some stone again sometime, but until then, I'm just doing little things here and there and enjoying the company of Scruffy, another dog I've yet to name and two horses.
I am the same and still alive. I'm working towards some of my goals and getting ever closer. I also have quite the lovely outfit made of leather, and a lot of extra leather as well.
I am still happily married! And it's been 5 years! Time does go by so fast. We finally found out where our dear friend went to while we were gone to get some more silk and can't wait to see him again! He better be there when we get there!
I am happy enough, helping the town and doing my own little projects. I've met more friends and time continues going on. Strangely enough, I still continue to attract men, though I'm not nearly as outgoing and lively as I used to be. Unfortunately, I'm still afraid of them dying on me.
I am still here. The war didn't happen; the ones being attacked fled before they got there. There's not much work to do really. I've found that I like it outside more than I thought, but I'll not hesitate to go back inside if there's a project that needs to be done.
I am again away from home, only this time, much further away than I ever really thought I'd be. It's nice here, but we're just waiting to move on. Many things have happened that shocked me and I was glad to get away from my home after all was said and done.
I am entrusted with a title to protect this place I'm in. I have a shiney sabre and an iron shield. I've come to many conclusions about my purpose in this life. I'm convinced that hawks hold the power to make me stronger and to protect me if I kill them and use their feathers and bones and meat. I thirst to be imbued with the power they hold. I have many other thoughts too, but they shan't be revealed until it's time.
I am still married. I thought it would change. And I honestly tried. I'm not sure how much longer I want to live. I know all I have to do is knock on the door. Perhaps death would be better for me.
I am travelling with the one person that ever talked to me and another friend of his. We have delightful conversations and we want so much to see how our government works for us (if indeed it does as it claims). I'm still quiet; I can't really help it; I'm shy and always have been.
I am young and new to this world. I have indominitable enthusiasm and perhaps an overly curious nature. What can I say? I just want to know everything there is to know about the world I'm in!

I am back in my hometown with my bf. I still try to hunt faithfully, for it is one thing I'm smashingly good at. Poor animals. Except the sheep. They can die.

I am in a small, little-populated place. I'm trying to help the town grow, but I'm almost as sleepy as the leader as of late. But so far, I'm sure he can claim the award for sleepiness.

I am sleepy too and have been a long time, but I keep working. I should be more awake, because I fear I may not be living up to my responsibilities in some ways.

I hope that everything is alright back home, but I'm determined this thief won't get away with their impertinence.
I am finally trying to make it back to my hometown from a resource run that didn't go very well in some aspects. It took me too long and I'm sure they think I'm dead or have run off with the things entrusted to me. It's not my fault that the person I was to rely on half-way through the journey let me down. I'll make it back. I promised I would short of death and that's what I intend.
I am dead. I did make it back, but now I am dead. It's my own fault though.
I live all alone on a sparsely-populated place where I'm sure I've only seen maybe four other Cantrians in my whole life. I travel some to get some resources but always return to my home to slowly try and build a cottage. My only companion is my dog Scruffy.
I am still in the same place. Time is inconsequential to me; it is some sort of paradise and world away from the worlds. I have seen maybe one more person come through, and I'm hoping they'll come back with some stone again sometime, but until then, I'm just doing little things here and there and enjoying the company of Scruffy, another dog I've yet to name and two horses.
I am tough and not very friendly. I'm not unfriendly, but I do not care much for people. I rarely speak to anyone without need. I do enjoy chasing down criminals though. And I like leather. Lots of leather.
I am the same and still alive. I'm working towards some of my goals and getting ever closer. I also have quite the lovely outfit made of leather, and a lot of extra leather as well.
I was happily living in paradise with the love of my life. But those dreams and plans came crashing down when we were brutally murdered. At least we were together until my dying day. Who thought it would end this way?
I am back home with my wonderful husband. No longer do the silk bushes and toolsheds have to beware, but certainly it doesn't mean we'll stop having fun. As long as I stop being sleepy! I'm sorry, my dearest husband and friend, I've not meant to be so sleepy! I am waking up more...
I am still happily married! And it's been 5 years! Time does go by so fast. We finally found out where our dear friend went to while we were gone to get some more silk and can't wait to see him again! He better be there when we get there!
I am done building my home. I'm over the loss of the man I had started to care about who died unexpectedly. I am not over the fact that I didn't even realize he'd died until I went to say something to him, but could not find him or his body. But the only other man I'd ever cared about died as well. He might've been the only one that could've convinced me to give love another try. At any rate, I'm determined to not let anyone else be more than a friend.
I am happy enough, helping the town and doing my own little projects. I've met more friends and time continues going on. Strangely enough, I still continue to attract men, though I'm not nearly as outgoing and lively as I used to be. Unfortunately, I'm still afraid of them dying on me.
I'm living and working in a town that's in an uproar. There's talk of going to war. I came outside because I was asked to, but I just want to go back inside to work. I could care less about war.
I am still here. The war didn't happen; the ones being attacked fled before they got there. There's not much work to do really. I've found that I like it outside more than I thought, but I'll not hesitate to go back inside if there's a project that needs to be done.
I am finally home. I'm glad to be home but many things have changed for me. My best friend is married and left, things I thought I could be sure of, I'm not, and I can't stand being locked inside, but I am. Of my own choice of course. I'm hurt but ever-unwilling to show it and I know that it's only my own fault. So I shall stay inside, despite my fear of being inside, so that I may meditate. I will be alright, though I'm not sure I'll ever be the same determined flirt that I was.
I am again away from home, only this time, much further away than I ever really thought I'd be. It's nice here, but we're just waiting to move on. Many things have happened that shocked me and I was glad to get away from my home after all was said and done.
I am back where I was supposed to be, but found that the one that was going to build an army with me is dead. And we lost recruits to death and silence as well along the way. I will get my revenge on that place, if only in the honor of my dead.. friend? I suppose it is the closest thing to a friend I would have. I'm not much for friends. I do like dead birds though. Or dead anything. Amazing when you know you can sap the life out of something.
I am entrusted with a title to protect this place I'm in. I have a shiney sabre and an iron shield. I've come to many conclusions about my purpose in this life. I'm convinced that hawks hold the power to make me stronger and to protect me if I kill them and use their feathers and bones and meat. I thirst to be imbued with the power they hold. I have many other thoughts too, but they shan't be revealed until it's time.
I am happily married and living quietly. Maybe too quietly for my husband, but that will change.
I am still married. I thought it would change. And I honestly tried. I'm not sure how much longer I want to live. I know all I have to do is knock on the door. Perhaps death would be better for me.
I was living then I died by cruel chance of fate. It won't be a lamented death though.
I am quiet. I live in a busy place, where only one person really ever talks to me. I lost two friends, one went completely mad. I don't know why, and sometimes I blame myself.
I am travelling with the one person that ever talked to me and another friend of his. We have delightful conversations and we want so much to see how our government works for us (if indeed it does as it claims). I'm still quiet; I can't really help it; I'm shy and always have been.

I am alone in the mountains, been traveling for ages. Everyone I meet are either asleep all the time, or dead... Sometimes I'm thinking of joining them...
I am seeking my best friend who vanished with all my tools. People think I speak funny. Oh, and I never get ill, immune to sneezings meesa bes...
I am traveling along with a nice woman. But our goal for the trip seems so distant. I just adore leather! But I do like women... in case you were wondering...?
I am a man who sometimes gets seizures where he believes he's (or in fact really is) posessed by a dark lord. The really bad seizures ends with him carving himself with knives... But he has recently seen the light in the form of a powerful woman... perhaps he's not beyond salvation after all...
I am a rich man, but no one to share my riches with. The love of my life just wouldn't wake up... So now I'm all alone in a very big city.
I am the world's luckiest man, no doubt. I live in a town with good friends and plenty of things to do. And above all else; I have met the woman of my dreams. I like to write poems, preferably really dark ones, probably because I'm haunted by my violent past. Sometimes I change the poetry into songs. I used to sing for myself, but these days I have found the courage to do it in public as well... Guess who I have to thank for that?

I am nobody
I am another nobody
I am not what I planned to be, even though I keep trying to fulfil my dreams
I am in love and have good friends.
I have an obsession with killing wild boars.
I am home again after travelling and don't have any idea what to do with my life
I was:
Killed by the Blackrocks
Killed by a wild horse after wandering, lost and starving since spawning. It was a tossup whether the wild animals or starvation would kill me first.
Just an update:
I am in love and travelling again
I almost have my business up and running.
I am making a car at the moment
I am travelling again *sighs* My poor tired feet
I am married and co-own a business
I am a trader on my first trip
I am a captain of a trading ship
I am sailing back home after being gone many years - I hope my building still belongs to me.
I am a heartbroken SK ........ *sighs* I don't know if I can go on.
I am far from home on a resource run
I am in the process of trying to build a nice cottage
I am donating a harvesting machine to my town - at least it's giving me something to do with my life for the next year or so. I have officially given up on my previous dreams.........
I still have good friends and am in love. However, my love is sleeping more and more these days. I have more responsibility than I wanted. *looks for someone to hand over the responsibilites to and sees a likely candidate - evil grin*
I am married but away from my spouse.
I am starting up a small trading post almost by accident. Who knew people would trade such valueable resources for my extra carrots?
I am still in love and we're getting ready to go on a long trip together
I have my business up and running and have met someone special
I'm a manager of a company with some unrest amongst the employees
I'm home and I think I can finally make a tandem bike! Yeah! No more sore feet from these long roads!
I'm still married. Going through a rocky patch right now.
[edit - found the one I forgot] Starting a new business. One of the partners recently disappeared. I don't know what happened to her.
I'm still a captain of a trading ship
I've left again on another sailing trip.
I'm still a SK.
I'm still on that resource run

I've got my cottage built. Gathering food for an eventual trip for hematite and limestone.
I'm now a guard for the town and have a relationship developing
My love died and I'm alone

I was killed by pirates
I'm about to go on a hematite run for my trading post
I spawned on an island with very few people and lots of violent animals.
edit: I forgot one, but right now, I can't remember who I forgot

I was...
...now I am...
...running the manufacturing department, albeit sleepily.
Making a whole new batch of weapons for the town... just in case...
...still trying to be the prettiest girl ever.
Been recruited to help run the town with the other two girls, but not sure what I can really offer. Helping to improve the road, though silently concerned about messing up my beautiful clothing.
...frustrated at people's self-absorption and unwillingness to help the needy.
Back home after many, many years. Nobody has changed, and my return has barely been noticed, despite once having served a significant role in the town. May leave for good, depending on if I can fulfill my life purpose here... or not...
...back from my mission, now helping another town set up a new government.
On the road again, this time for "promotional" purposes. The first mission that may end up being more fun than I've had in years.
...traveling with my loved ones, but discovering something unsettling about myself.
I'm going blind... have yet to see if what we seek will fix this condition. We barely escaped with our lives and are glad to have eachother.
...still serving the town, but not as well as my husband does. I wish he would return soon.
My husband is back! Those jerks finally left! But the town has shrunk. It's not the bustling city it once was... we'll rebuild.
...calling my new buddy my new girlfriend. We are gathering resources to start our new business.
I have to get her back... lest I have a heart attack! When I get her back, she will see... that I want to ask her to marry me.
...trying to be patient with travellers that do not read the laws.
Patience won't be needed much longer. Soon the jail will have a lock on it.
...sent to invite others to our festival, but am lost. Doesn't help that I can't read.
Festival's done. Made a radio... ain't gonna do no good when nobody else ain't got one.
...still exploring this untamed land with my travel partner. Happy about having found a better food source.
Elephants? Oh my... left them behind and back on the "haunted" roads..
...sleeping while guarding the town, as the other guards are on duty and awake.
We need tighter laws. Non-guards have no business enforcing laws. This will change.
...back from the journey, to find that the island has changed in politics.
Political climate change has allowed trade to open up. I've recruited a very active member to our organization, but he needs to be kept in check. After hearing about his recent "power trip", we will be having a little chat...
...bored, needing more thrills to stoke the developing flames of attraction to my shipmate.
Had a quick thrill in a town awhile back, but it's time to play it safe again for awhile. If we could only shake all of our "dead weight" (my mate knows what I mean)...
...planning to do more than argue now... taking some action.
Part of my action was to check out what we might be up against. Oh man, did that place give me the creeps! Now that I'm back home, I'm even more determined to "undo the arrogance", but clueless as to how to accomplish this successfully.

My char feels like a true explorer there. Lot's of weird animals.
I actually thought i'd been placed on a foreign land to start.
We had a gathering frenzy only to realise, you have to meet a live person
to actually become traders.

Anyway making that neatly written map of yours will great, now we can
have a naming Frenzy.....



No one can make you feel inferior without your consent and Being happy doesn't mean everything is perfect. It means you have decided to look beyond the imperfections.

I have seen maybe one more person come through, and I'm hoping they'll come back with some stone again sometime, but until then, I'm just doing little things here and there and enjoying the company of Scruffy, another dog I've yet to name and two horses.

Okay, I couldn't find my other post to quote, so, this really is an update:
I am:
....A newlywed who is not very happy with the governing cantrians.
....A soldier who was on a search and rescue mission, for a woman
who did not want to be found. She views this as a complete waste of
time.
....A random travellor who is carrying lots of valuable resources. Sure
hope she doesn't meet any robbers...
....Another travellor, hoping to start a ferry service between one side of
an island to another.
....A postwoman. Nothing new here. Just doing her job.
....A somewhat newspawn who isn't talkative, but has somehow
accumulated thirty days of food in a place where there are no edible
resources.
I'm actually thinking of starting another character, but not for another couple of months. Maybe during Christmas Vacation...

I am copying heart*of*hearts!!!!!!
I am... still mourning, but in the process of moving on. I'm repairing all of his old things and moving them into my new house with the lock...soon to go visit my friend *** in ******.
I am... doing my job the best I can. I finally got some food, and am now travelling to the towns I've already visited to check on my handiwork.
I am... flirting shamelessly with a very pretty young lady. I'm making her a pair of pretty earrings out of my trade stock... she'd better appriciate them.
I am... still very efficient at theivery. I somehow managed to walk across water and have now arrived in *****, where I ran away to when I first spawned. I'm heading to **** to make some profit before stealing all they've got.
I am... highly embarassed because I just sailed around in a circle, trying to get the hang of the sloop's controlls while my boss was sleeping. I'm trying to get away from *** ******.
I am... on the way to visit a close friend of mine because I just gave all my food away to a newspawn girl. I live in the mountains, so I can't eat the stone...
I am... a newlywed who's as happy as a clam. I've got a pretty, sparkly ring! And I can't WAIT for that resource run!
I am... making some cloth so I can make a dress for myself. This bikini is itchy.
I am... still suicidal.
I am... holding a bunch of leather. For what reason, I don't know...I think I'm going to be making some pants for the men in the area. Sheesh...some boys and their loincloths!
I am... still anti-social, still grumpy, but on my way to a new town to be anti-social and grumpy there. Perhaps get a position of power so I can be really really grumpy.
I am... still fat, still jolly, and on my way to distribute tulips to the world!
I am... a newspawn in the German area. I'm horrible with a club.

I wouldn't. I'm a blonde, and didn't see my own post at the top of the page. But I searched every other page for it!
[quote="nitefyre']Well, there aren't that many active female postal employees, so for the few that're there, they'll be sure to catch a lad's eye. [/quote]
I think you might be hinting at something, but I'm not sure, so I'll just shut up now. I have this awesome knack at being wrong when I assume things.
And, that's what makes being a female postal worker so much fun for Devin, apart from having pretty much no social life.
Wait, I'm completely messing myself up. Forget everything I just said.
