170 Who could surpass a bard when it came to reading the tempo of battle? At times, one ought to swing back, weaving songs into succor to aid the breaking bodies of the frontline. At other times, one ought to stand tall, booming voice inspiring allies to greater heights. But at this time, with...

He widened his eyes as she buried her face against his chest, the softness of her hair felt even through his swallowtail suit, and Cain wrapped his arms around her once more, closing his eyes as well. They were both tired, weren't they? But they were both alive still, and though this was still a...

"Such confidence is endearing, of course, but Terrasphere, by its nature as an game that allows for fully customizable player avatars, has a surplus of supernaturally handsome individuals." He brushed his hair back, time itself seeming to slow as infinitesimal sparkles shone in the air and the...

His orchestration changed slightly. Had been changed by her. Was this kindness, or self-satisfaction? For those of the Harmonic lineage, it naturally became both, no longer distinguishable. As performers performed both to entertain and to empathize, the healing that came from Harmonic magic...

"Not an earthworm, but a Rootleech Treant. The Scarwoods, guarded as they are by the wolf pack who culls and protects the species within as necessary, remain vulnerable to parasites of the vegetative and invasive side. As wolves cannot dig into the earth, it becomes the work of adventurers to...

Oh, a lost newbie? Cain's eyes flickered from the quality of her weapon to the erratic twitching of her tail, then towards his surroundings once more. The Scarwoods, marked as they were by apex predators who claimed this strip of nature as their own, certainly wasn't the sort of place for a...

"Unnatural powers do appear to extract undue costs." The image was nebulous in his mind's eye, virtual aids granting only an incomplete visual understanding of what the large-hatted Magia was afflicted by, but it was clear enough that an excess of vestigal mana was being pulled into her form...

Day broke and day fell, Danielle gliding through her life with a present focus. There was shopping to do, cleaning to do, cooking to do, and work to do. Her freelancer's schedule gave her the flexibility to occasionally spend inordinate amounts of time in Terrasphere, but that didn't mean that...

He received the hat gingerly, holding it up for inspection with the tips of his fingers pressed against the rim. After a full day's of exploration, a terrible time spent in the Broodmother's folds, and then a subsequently battle to the death against the demon-ruined insectoid, the hat itself...

170 "Would recommend against that myself," Cain replied, flipping his Battle-Banner off his shoulder. "There's always the chance that the body reclaims its head if you're not thorough with the severance of their mortality." Taking a wide grip with his own weapon, the Flagbearer allowed his...

If it wasn't for her heightened aural senses, perhaps she wouldn't have heard it coming. The rumbling of earth, the groaning of roots. But despite all that, there was still something missing, something that prevented an immediately effective response from formulating in Kyra's mind. That...

Cain's eyes widened incrementally, the dim comfort of the room lit up by sparks of arcane energy that bounced off of Arashi's joints. She was undoubtedly a player, so problems in 'manufacturing' should exist in the same way that a lander Magia may, and yet, her movements were still curiously...

The nature of song and dance was founded in rhythm and note, both that could be accomplished with just a specific eye for timing. Though he had burned away much of his energy in the battle against the Kurungaar Matron, whatever the Starcalled exhausted in battle could be restored with a night's...

Silence. Day broke and still, it was silent, sound extrapolated only from the vibrations and the tremors he could feel on his skin. Tiring, but the sky was beautiful. Yellows gradating to a crisp blue, the storm having bled into light rain before finally be cast aside by that explosion that...

Perhaps it was to be expected. Certainly, his first encounter with Dissonance, with the knowledge of a new World Boss on the horizon, was to sign up for the most difficult part of the raid and plunge head first into the nightmare that was Titanius Core. Without experience, one could not gauge...

“There exists the central pantheon that most landers believe in, those of Idna and Syndra, Tyldr and Endra, and then there are outlier beliefs. Some speak of the Mother of Monsters. Others of the Prince Bound in the Stars.” Gods? Or just monsters of another tier? The lines blurred too easily...

145 Red Fever (7) Red Fever effects temporarily nullified (last cycle) -30 HP from Map Damage -30 from Finisher Retal Vulnerable|Protected “Of course.” How else could he answer her but this? How else could he act, but with his MAXIMUM EFFORT? Words of Power hummed in his hand as the...

145 Red Fever (6) Red Fever effects temporarily nullified +49 HP from Serenity Mist|Vina|Gideon -25 HP from Support Vulnerable/Protected Fury. His arm flung out, snatching @Bradwynne 's. Nails digging deep enough to draw blood. Even as Serenity seeped into his cranium, pressing down...

145 Unaffiliated Red Fever (4) - Sadness Hollowed out. How many times has it been now? Every time he hung below the world, suspended by a noose, he broke that braided hemp and surged forth regardless. And every time, that decision made turned out for the worse. Emotion. Loyalty. Sentiment...

170 Within the flurry of Fiora’s flying blades, which corralled the worm’s path with density alone, Cain lunged in. One hand grasped the base of his flagpole, the other splayed outwards to support it, and with a move reminiscent more of billiards than any proper form of sportsmanship, the...
