time for an update :D

I AM...

...Finally making my navy start to look a bit like one. She may think she's not doing good, but I could never get this far without her.

...Suddenly in charge of my town and my dwindling army. I'm not sure I want to do this, but I'm the only one they've got.

...Finally doing what I was born to do; Fight. And we may soon have a very unexpected truce.

...not sure whether I'm more angry or sad. They killed my friends, there's nothing we can do about it either.

...Regretting joining them. I'm pretty sure that once I leave for this mission, I won't be coming back.

...Slowly starting to loose hope. I've given up on my plans for my business. I just want her to wake up again.

...Enjoying a nice, quiet day in the forest. It's been a while since things have been this slow.

...Finally got my ship back! I'm so happy I could fly!!

...Worried. Our numbers have shrank so drastically.

...Happy. I've found myself a home. And that girl is kind of cute too.

...Enjoying the quiet in the kitchen.

...Waiting to build my new hospital.

...So happy. I think I've found my sister!

...Kinda bored mining this silver.
Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked in to jet engines... :P

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Now... I am...

...still learning 'Jestem' but it is not going as well as I want it to. The others seem to grasp it much quicker then me but I will lean. Other then that I am just working to work.

...on a trip? *laughs* Not sure! Bodyguard maybe? *laughs again*

...sailing still and glad that one ship stopped following us as that was a little bothersome.

...getting sadder and sadder that she is sleepy... *sniffles* She's NEVER gonna wake up! *cries*

...staying and helping and really glad I was allowed too. I kinda like her but maybe I shouldn't?

...Uh... I am.. uh... being a dick?

Alright..for old time's sake..and last post before I leave.


I am....

..seriously hating this hammer, I'm sure the feeling is mutual. So glad that we've been able to get this Navy going though, and happy to see him happy.

..not exactly sure why I'm playing with fire. I'm sooo screwed and I know it, but its one hell of a ride baby...well...walk right now. Stupid long road.

..getting a little anxious. I don't want to help, I want to leave. But I must not.

..making some awesome new threads and loving my job as leader mostly because he's been amazing lately.

..giving up. I'm faking sleep on this damn boat because I hate this life.

..working happily as always, back home finally. Loove this radio.

..in a new city since my best friend died and working quietly as always.

..very much wanting to find a city and build a life with her. Also, I promised her we could bring someone else in, and that's exciting.

..absolutely nothing, just watching her, and keeping her fed.

..getting coal, then something else, then home. Thinking about the marriage and the house and him..oh him..

..killing myself, and planning on taking a few down with me.

..travelling through macgregor territory, very close to peeing myself I'm so scared.

..nothing. Watching. Talking. ..maybe squishing :D

  • being a general nuisance, albeit a rather cheerful one.

-Going to somewhere exciting! We're getting copper! I love my sister! YAY!


Going back home! Hunting is fun! I want to stay out longer!


Gathering resources. But I'm not so happy right now... someone very close to me died. At least I still have my sister.


Terribly bored, continuing one of my grand plans. I'd like to go to that new island...


Still bored, still looking for something to do.


Bringing one of my schemes back to life. Yay!


Returning back to work after a brief spell of introspection.

-Make stuff. Daddy busy.


Protect home. Turtle bad.


Miss daddy. Confusing turtle.


Not kill turtle. Frustrating.


Making Guild do better?


Making 'winderstuff.


Being very drowsy.

-FINALLY getting the answers I NEED.


Spreading the holy word of a religion of about two people.


Gathering spinach quietly after a new revelation brought about by hunger.


Evangelizing, but encountering more resistance than ever before.


Being brought back from the brink... perhaps.


Being rather sleepy, after a long, long sleep.


Dead.

Falling in love with one of the three men I've ever known.


Slowly bringing myself back to health, worried about how sleepy my love is.


Beginning to hallucinate, far, far away from home.


Finally getting out of these woods. Is one of the newspawns an ambassador?


Newspawns, newspawns! Mother gives them the strangest ideas about the world.


Getting over him by trying to find him.

Trying to find an interesting personality (he's new and boring).


Gathering some food, and crushing on another man a bit.


Rejected by the one I love, I'm quietly working on some weapons.


Preparing for a war. I'm not sure I'm in love with anyone.


My love left, maybe crazy; the ones who give me help went, too.


Settling back into a routine after a terrifying experience out of my hometown.

Surviving on the indulgence of others, and loving every minute. Can't we just leave already?


Still waiting for others to just hurry up.


Yay, we left! Am I in love? I dunno, but I know lots of people love me.


Being held prisoner by the evil foreigners, confused as to why they're not being evil.

Makin' things to trade, I hope.


Possibly wakin' up? (I might be killing this guy off, he's more boring than I expected)


Dead.

New: Looking to get married somewhere, and fulfill my secret wish to be a legal burglar.


Dead.

Mi mentor habla más. ¡Aconséjeme!

I am...
  • Laying out a new highway, working alongside my fellow citizens. It feels good to be home, but I am distracted slightly by my responsibilities elsewhere. I am concerned about that person.
  • Complety shocked to find myself marooned in the middle of the ocean with no land in sight in any direction. I suppose that's what I get for sleeping for so long. I actually find the loneliness and silence enjoyable. Perhaps I will die out here... I wouldn't mind it. But my instincts will probably lead me back to that damned island.
  • Sailing around this intereresting island to the town on the other side. According to the maps I copied, I will find coal not far from that port. Things are going well again, and I feel immeasurably relieved to be free to sail where I want again.
  • Returning to my home with a load of stone. I grew careless in the last few days and forgot to take notes on the geography of the surrounding land. That will leave a few holes in my map, but I am sure I will be coming this way again some time and will be able to fill them in.
  • Malting barley, as always, and hearing about the misfortune that happened to those people. I feel sorry for them, which is unusual since I have always mainly thought of my own survival and honour.
  • Feeling hungry, so I am farming for carrots. The people here have made some effort to welcome me, but I don't care as long as I can farm in peace. I still feel slightly restless, like I want to diffuse across this world. Well, I can only wander in one direction, so that is what I will do.
  • Putting together an important tool to help me achieve my goals. Things seem to be going well, and progress should speed up in the near future if I can secure the trust of these other people. He seems to sleeping. Hopefully he'll die soon so I don't have to worry about him any more.
  • Locked in a room with her, on top of her, inside her. This feels amazing... she's so willing and supple. I don't care what the others say, my will is my own and I'll do what I want with my time.
  • Collecting wood, which I plan to later exchange for some real estate. This should go smoothly. Good thing I made this axe first, it speeds up my work a lot. There have been lots of newspawns lately.
  • Walking, coming closer to the new place. I don't know what to do. I'm embarrased about leaving so suddenly - they were kind to me, but I was confused.
  • Digging more potatoes, and looking forward to my new clothes. She is kind - I hope I'll have enough potatoes to adequately reimburse her for her work.
  • Still helping her with her cooking. I'm getting to know some of the people here, which is good. I'm starting to feel a bit claustrophobic in this room, though. I'll have to find a way to go outside without seeming rude. It shoudn't be too hard.

No prizes for anybody who guesses more than one of my characters - most of these are quite obvious.

Ok seeing as the fortnightly wave of I AMs are trickling through.. I'll be a sheep.

I AM...

..still making bows. I hope someone comes along to trade for some soon. Otherwise I'll load my cart full with them. *shrugs*

..burying my head in the sand, working indoors, terrified of my boyfriend dying in battle a few towns away. News comes through, but not the news I need.

..cooking. He came back just to tell me to work on something else. Life is pretty dull.

..exploring with my fellow soldiers. This is terribly exciting! I'm getting good at dodging. He is just so sweet.

..enjoying his company, finding things to do together on a VERY long road. I love him so much it hurts.

..sticking around for this new man. I like him, but he seems as difficult as me. I'm helping him work off his debt, reluctantly.

..fleeing on my ship after finding some very frightening projects in that last town. Those dodgy, perverted men.. why do I have a knack for finding the deceptive ones?

..starting to get things together. Some helpful men have spawned, and we're about to start trading. Plenty of work still to do, and I'm starting to realise I'm not a failure for not fixing everything in a year by myself.

..finally made a decent weapon. Now to build that smelter and start producing iron. Need to go on another resource run... ugh.

..fixed up my friend. He didn't appreciate the help so much though...hehe. Will gather some of this shiny stuff then off to wandering with them again.

..still a slave.. we did everything they told us to. Now they're killing us.. why didn't they keep their word? I just want to marry him and be free.

..helping the newspawns make their shields. I'm so desperate to start a proper guard, with proper weapons.

..sailing still. I know I'm on the right path, and nearly there. I hope noone else has claimed 'my' town already.

..unable to die in battle as I had hoped. I'm still very unhappy, but this has forced me to think about having a future. I'm heading home because it's the obvious thing to do. He has offered me a lift. I'm not sure where this is heading.

..still walking with my friend. Or boyfriend? I don't know. I want to set up a home with him.. he makes me feel safe.

I AM...

...Driving around with the woman I love deciding how stir trouble for business.

...Sitting in town after a decade or so at sea and lost as what to do next. Also pained that the woman I love tells me she loves me yet avoids even the smallest contact.

...walking down a long road with the woman I love, naked and covered in blood and could not be happier

...Helping a friend take care of a 'problem', returning the favour.

...Sick of ordering fools and looking forward to a drive with a new friend and getting to know her better on the way to see an old friend.

...Sitting in town making some shields with a skill I am natural expert with, hoping to be apprenticed to the towns weapon smith while I wait for my next posting.

11. I'm recruiting people for what may be the biggest economic venture this nation has ever seen.

1. She's gone. I don't know where. I took the ship and I'm sailing back home. I'm just a tired, broken man.

4. Walking down the road, starving to death. Life's boring.
5. I'm out of here. They're all cowards and morons, too. I'm going back to the mountains.
6. Still locked up. Shouldn't have turned myself in, and I miss her too. I hope she's still out there with the boat. If she's not....well, I'm fucked when I'm out of here.
7. Well, the Tribe's got an offensive apparently....I still have shackle marks on my wrists, too...
8. STILL LOCKED UP, and slowly going insane from lack of food and blood loss.

I am breaking locks and starting to wonder if I should go after him.

I am being intimate with the loveliest girl in the world! Well... she could be slightly less clueless, but I can teach her, I'm sure of it.

I am inside working on repairs and this seems like a good moment to fall asleep... Oh, except that I need to wait for that vehicle renting guy to come back.

I am hitting sleepers. Haha, that was fun! Can't wait to do it again.

I am getting anxious, she wants to travel but I'm not ready yet. For once I have a home and people I'm starting to consider friends and I'm SURE something awful will happen once we go...

I am planning to go on a long resource run with one or two guys. It'll be just like in the old days except with different people. I wish she'd be awake more and I don't think she knows how much I care about her.

I am... inside. Can't remember what I'm doing.

I am considering taking up a career of awaking people into realizing their lives are worthless and then helping them die. It beats my first idea of offering myself as a slave, since I doubt there's anyone out there who actually deserves to be my Master.

I am still getting ****ed by him but I can't seem to cum. This is so awkward, why won't he make it stop?

I am torn between wanting to find the girl who used me and fearing that I'll end up doing something I'll regret for the rest of my life.

I am sailing around the island after producing a good variety of foods.

I am exploring.

I am coming home.

What are our charries supposed to think?

Are they aware of this huge 'coma' / leap forward in time, or do we rp as if nothing happened?

What the characters experience is a period of about a day in which they could not start anything new. That should be all, since nothing within the game has happened since, and no game time has passed.
I think ...
