Thank you. I have some pics under work currently, and I already promised to draw my Hunter and Smoker some time. Though it needs little time, admitted. Got other matters under process now as well.

Do you take requests?
π: 0 β©: 1
It depends on what kind of artwork is to be requested, but yes, I do take requests. So go ahead, what's in your mind about it?

Well my DA sis drew my OC as a Tank the other day and I was wondering if you could draw him please? It's just a sketch though.
π: 0 β©: 1
Sure, I think could do that

That's him. He's a Half Koopa Half Yoshi guy.
And do you think you could just do a pic of the other 5 infected seeing him for the first time and wondering what he is or something? Please?
The pose doesn't matter to me just as long as it's appropriate.
π: 0 β©: 1
Hmm, I haven't actually drawn beings like that, but I'll give it a try, always a new experience and so on
Sure, I can draw the other Special Infected ones if they fit in the pic, I guess it's a matter of atmospheric design now in how they should appear (meaning that if it's a bright pic, they can all just goggle at your OC on sight, or if it's a dark pic, they can lurk in the shadows and observe your OC from there). So I guess that's another thing for you to decide (forgive me that I ask so much, but like I said, it's easier to work with when you have more knowledge of what you wish of the pic, and more likely the result will be to your liking as well ^^").
I guess that since your OC is a little manga-ish, I could use that style in the pic (my usual style, like the one in the "End of All Hope" picture, might be too stern for it). So the next questions are, what kind of pic you wish it to be? Happy, sad, funny, dark etc. ? And then, do you wish it as a pencil sketch or full colouring?
I also hope you don't mind if it takes some time to be done. I'm currently going to visit my parents and applying for a job, but I do have my spare time to do the request for you, no worries about that. I'm just warning that it may take a little while ^^"

Well it doesn't matter to me if it's a sketch or colored.
But also I'll let you decide on funny or dark if you want.
π: 0 β©: 1
You're giving me quite the freedom there I see. But sure, I will try to get on working with a sketch soon. Hopefully it'll be to your liking once it's finished
If you have any questions, requests or ides for the pic, you can contact me via Note

Hi - I'm trying to find a good download of VtM and oWoD, but I'm crap at looking for stuff like this on google. Do you know of any sites that do a high-qualtity download of them? (If you've already found any, please can you link me?)
Thanks in advance XD!
π: 0 β©: 1
Do you mean you wish to find the rulebooks for the old World of Darkness, or are you looking for mods for the existing games? If you could define a bit of what you're looking for, I might be able to help better ^^"
π: 0 β©: 1
I'm looking for the rulebooks X3
π: 0 β©: 1
Ok. Hmm...Well, let me try to look for something. I don't know if I can find any, but I guess I have something in my BitTorrent files that might include info. I'll just take a check of it and inform if I find anything.
π: 0 β©: 1
Thank you!
I can find the VtM rulebook and the clanbooks, but not core oWoD X)
π: 0 β©: 1
I seem to find some sort of WoD core books, but I'm not too sure whether they're for the old WoD or the boring-as-heck new WoD. Also, it seems that most of the pdf-downloads are not working due to lack of downloaders. But I can try to keep on looking.
π: 0 β©: 1
Thanks. It's hard to tell - is there anything specifying what it's used with?
Thanks anyway - PS; wjere do you reckon is the best place to download the clanbooks from?
π: 0 β©: 1
I'm not too sure, but since WoD's gone through changes with the new editions, it's probably nothign strange if there's a new core book of the world itself.
Best place? To be honest, I don't know. Torrents usually have almost all the books you need if you can find a good one with all the needed books included. You just have to google and look I guess.
π: 0 β©: 1
OK. Which goes with the last VtM? since if we can find that edition, I should be able to download it X3
OK
π: 0 β©: 1
Gah, it seems that my search is going just as bad as with you. Also, there're no people giving downloads for the core books I found. Sorry -_-
π: 0 β©: 1
It's OK.
Thanks for trying though, I really appreciate it - PS, how's your day been?
π: 0 β©: 1
You're welcome ^^"
My day? Um...You really don't wanna know, I had a test today and...Well, let's just say Dante might be meeting it in his journey through Hell. And that's nicely said of it.

Hi, Riika!
It's been a long time since you saw an excerpt of my Eternal Darkness fanfic... but this time, I want to show you this:
[link]
From the first novel I began to write... Ah, 8 years ago.
There you can read some of the prose that mirrors the one in my fanfic. Oh, that Phobos is ominous.

Hi, sorry it has taken a bit long to check things out. I've been busy with my tests and other stressful matters lately concerning finding a job.
A short but rather sinister poem indeed. Yet also intriguingly dark and fascinating. Sometimes short poems like that are the best way to bring out the nature of the character, or create foreshadowing for the story.
I like it

Hi, Riika!
By the way, I want to show you this:
[link]
And see what do you think of it? I know Kari will gladly receive any comment and critique to improve it.
And yes, I'm celebrating my no-birthday, then in April will be my almost-birthday, and in April 28th, it'll be my birthday, at last.
In other news, I can't believe that I've got a norwegian fan... see what her profile says about her favourite poet or writer...

Congratulations to you for your birthday in advance ^^ And the picture is really beautiful, I don't know what else to say of it.
Heheh, seems like you've received fame already

Umm, I'm stuck for thinking of a beginning for a WoD game - its about trying to take down a tyrannical prince, but I can't think of how to start; the characters bump into one another when one is being chased or something? I'm not sure; Please can you help?
π: 0 β©: 1
Hmm, I don't know if I can be of much help, but I'll gladly try to give some aide ^^"
Usually characters bumping into one another randomly isn't the best way to start the story, so maybe we should try a different approach; how about starting the story fromt the points of the characters each on their own locations, and calmly lead them to one another through either one major event after which they are forced to stick together, or after series of events, each on their own time, which would turn them to form a group of their own, each having a different reason why to join. You know, like a bit of a rebellion activity?
I don't know much of your character settings there, but there's also a way that, if some characters know one another, they might join together naturally, or through mutual gains, and gather more similar members for these gains. Try to think of the possibilities your characters give, and use the ones you feel like will work the best
I hope this can help you somehow ^^"

Thanks!
I have a Mekhet and a Malkavian. (talk about M&Ms, lol) The Mekhet's sire is a son of a bitch who wants to use her to gain more power in the invictus (I'm not sure how Requiem savvy you are so I'll explain a bit - the invictus are power-hungry Camarilla-esque types who are usually elder using younger kindred as pawns 
The Malk is the childe of a Ordo Dracul (bunch of mystics, intellectuals and so-on who want to transcend the vampiric state 
Not to mention anyone who's not Invictus or Sanctified is PO'd but those two covenants are the most powerful, so everyone's cowed into submission
Any more tips?
π: 0 β©: 1
Ah, so your story's a VT: Requiem based? Um, unfortunately I dislike Requiem so much I simply refuse to acknowledge its existence, so I don't know anything about it ^^" Sorry I can't help much with it.
But I hope the tips I gave will be enough for you to form the base for the story and continue your own ideas from it, I'm sure you can do it fine
π: 0 β©: 1
I don't mind some of the covenants, but WHERE THE HELL DID THE CLANS GO? Seriously takes the fun out of guessing which Clan your fave book charas are,
Thanks!
PS - I did some HPL/VtM crossovers in my gallery,

Hi, Riika!
Well, I'll give you some spoilers for my fan-fic of Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem.
Obviously you must recall almost everything from the game, but in an adaptation to prose, I've taken advantage of some creativity to add better details for the story.
In the chapter of 'The Chosen' with Pious Augustus, one of the beginning scenes is a battle between Romans and Parthians (a Persian culture).
And here's one I really liked writing. In the chapter 'Shadows of Conspiracy', when Anthony finds the Tome, he browses through the pages and finds them all in blank. He keeps going and finds note, stanzas and bizarre drawings of rituals and fell creatures.
Then... as if that wasn't enough, he glimspes some interesting words. Chatpers! They're named like the ones in my fan-fic (Hey, that's breaking the Fourth Wall!). And Anthony finds the chapter 'Shadows of Conspiracy', he reads some paragraphs and finds, aghast, his actions, his name... then the pages are all blank again.
What do you think of it?
