The Black Tower

Happy Birthday Tina!!!!

HOLY CRAP ITS ALMOST HERE! *puts up the decorations* The table has been set And of course the dance hall has been made ready And last but not least, Tina has already seemed to have found her costume :P Now let's get this shindig started!

Someone thought it would be fun to see what would happen ifthe Heroes met the Villains. Having them turn up at the mansion all knowing whoeach other was, was not part of the master plan. Let them work for it, the OverLord though. Lets see can out smart who. So the invitations were all sent out,but they were all to come incognito. For some that wouldn’t be a problem, forone reason or another, they liked to keep their true identity hidden from thepublic, whether heroes or not! As they arrived at the mansion, you wouldn’t have guessedthat some hid super powers, others great evil. In fact they looked quitenormal, ordinary and really quite bland! But they were all one thi…

Wear this as or in your sig until it is over, and get 5 points, simple as that.

Welcome have a Brownie and let the Taint take hold. Then you can tell us about yourself between all the spam that will show up here. Don't stop at just a little crazy, go for two scoops.

Mine is Peter Pan Creamy Peanut Butter. What is yours?

It has come to my attention that as an Asha'man I do have 10pts to just give away. That being said, appease me :P

So I got to thinking I believe level wise I am ready for rank up so I was wondering... Is it like a formal type thingy and do I need to be decided where I'm going by the time I am raised? Or is that when the bribery/convincing/compulsion begins to get me to join one side or the other? I'm so confused, maybe I shouldn't of got spendy with it until I knew what to do after... >.>

You very much wanted I would read the Discworld, and I now finally started.

Hey guys I'm not sure if any had noticed, but I've been a lot spottier than normal lately on the social side. I hate saying this, but the social aspect of the BT just isn't quite as appealing to me anymore, and I will prob continue to be much of a lurker and occassional poster. I still plan on participating in games and activities, but it just kind of feels like I'm going through the motions lately and the interaction feels forced. Sorry to all the friends I've made here, I wish I had a better reason for this but I don't and don't want to lie to yall. Plus, I've rediscovered how much fun xbox is again lol, and I'm pretty sure I got Skyrim for christmas so I'll be play…

have a brownie

As someone who is a Christian, I took Rick Perry's Strong ad to be SUPER hypocritical. So when I found this, I laughed my butt off. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3epc2arU4g4

Thorkin! You made it. I'm so pleased. Pull up a minion and tell me what made you decide to come back to us?

Now this is the teaser I have been waiting for. The voice talking is Stannis Baratheon, and boy does it look amazing. They did a really good job with putting just enough to make me super excited and give me goosebumps. It's premiering April 2012, just in time for me to get home (hopefully). The book I am most excited to see done is book 3, but I loved book 2 as well. Did anyone notice that they put some stuff from book 2 into season 1 of Game of Thrones? http://youtu.be/sBrsM_WlfV8

Dice wanders around the outskirts of the Black Tower looking for a suitable place to set up drinks for tina. He spots some towering trees nearby and heads for them. Once he enters the area enclosed by the trees he feels a peacefullness wash over him looks around the glade...verry pretty starts to set up 0ne large table with comfortable chairs one fully stocked bar one pool table one jukebox a dicing area looks around "hmmm just needs a little something extra.." hangs a sign over the door then goes to prepare a drink for Tinahel (wonders to himself how many will come in before her figgers on 5)

Welcome to the Black Tower's Light vs. Shadow Week One Power Tournament! All match threads will be posted on the main board by me, and you will PM'd once yours is up. Each participant starts with all 10 stats. However, each one of you gets a pool of 20 points that you can add to your levels with. (Ex. If Fire is at 10, and you use 2 points, it is now at 12). You will be using Asha'man/Aes Sedai rank. You must set your points at the beginning of your first match, and then cannot change them once the match begins. Each match will be 5 rounds (a round is 1 attack by each participant). Semifinal matches will be seven rounds. The final match will be …

On a dark night in the Black Tower, while most of the citizens and Ashaman slept, some still were awake and stirring. Inside an elegant wing of the Tower which Despothera had taken as his quarters, the young Ashaman sat perusing several books, studying and researching for his next blog. His research assistant, Ithillian, was nearby, pulling random books from various shelves of the well-stocked library, deft hands finding quotes and references for the enterprising writer to use. Dim candlelight lit the room that was filled with many leather bound tomes and odd little collections of notes and sketches which were strewn across several tables. A pot of tea sat an another clut…

So I've only been around for a month and I've already hit 1000+ posts lets start the party!!!!

So I was wondering.... How can Ithi be on Turin's and Despo's side if they are rivals? >.> Shouldn't she has to choose?

Sooooo what happens when a firey bird gets hit with fire? Share your theories! I guess I'll start with my theory... my theory is if the fire is already burning it would do nothing, if it was not burning it would just reignite iono Also if you have something you would like theorized add it on!

We got a new recruit folks! Looks like this guy has already embraced the loving hold of the Taint, so everyone give him a proper Black Tower welcome and help make him feel at home! Matrim, you'll soon be getting a pm from one of our group staff letting you know more about us, but in the meantime go ahead and explore the Tower grounds a bit and introduce yourself. Someone will come by with some tainted brownies shortly, feel free to load up on those

Hooray! He finally caved in and decided to join! Let's all give him a true Black Tower welcome (read: spam ) and help make him feel at home! Phoenix, kick back, enjoy the adorations you're soon to receive, have some tainted brownies, and let the Taint do it's work. You'll receive a pm before too long, and you should receive access to the private boards before too long as well. if you have any questions, feel free to ask, and go ahead and just jump right into any conversation that you feel compelled to. Welcome!

Tina, Meesh and Lessa step out from the shadow. Eh, Meesh and Lessa might not have been in the shadow from the start but lets say they stepped out from the shadow anyway. Well, lets just say that all three are standing in the light now where everyone can see them. And by them I mean us. Now one of them (me) starts talking. And it´s very important that you listen carefully. Wow, that was not my best introduction. It´s time to put the faction rivalry aside. Not for good, no, but for one week. We are going to have a spam war between gals and guys. Rules 1. Keep it in this thread. We are talking about regular spam a´la 100.000 thread. 2. No double posts. Do…

I can't sleep... doo dee doo... lalala... So i'm on here bothering you guys. botherbotherbother. my brain capacity is rather diminished. I should sleep. But too mainstream.
