The White Tower & Warders

Hi folks! It's finally begun! Banned Books Mafia! I'm going to make this opening post as short and simple as possible so you can get playing! This is a very simple game of Mafia. It is abstract yes but it has players new to the game and it's designed quite like a newbie game. I may have added tricks or I may not have, guess you'll have to wait and see! First things first, Definitions: Book = Player Entity = Mafia Player Banned = Lynched or Nked Players: 1. DSage 2. Alanna 3. Myst 4. Meesh 5. Dsworn 6. Seryanne 7. Lily 8. Luddy 9. Charis 10.

The great hall of the white tower was silent. All of the ajahs very seldom venture there anymore. There is no mafia team in this game. Everyone is bunched in teams of threer. Abilities can be purchased in the way of ter’angreal. They are as following. Hedgehog – Makes a target skip a night action 35 points Oath rod lvl one – Role blocker – 65 points Oath rod lvl two – View someone’s night action – 80 points Oath rod lvl three – Finder – 115 points Balefire rod – Nightkill - 200 points A’dam – recruitment – 250 points Points are determined by relativity to the game. This game will take place in a different ajah headquarters every day. …

Hi all! As a part of this year's Autumn Festival, hosted by the Red Ajah. I will be taking in sigs and REVAMPING them. Just post your sig here by the 24th, so that you can get it back before the festival. You have the choice between ghost or haunted house. Choose wisely ;)

Alright... I was asked, and I have produced. These are my drafts for the Ajah Sigs. I am open to sugsestions or changes, but this is what I have thus far. Enjoy!

Come to the dorms and join us for a few Halloween festivities! http://forums.dragonmount.com/index.php/topic,49170.0.html Keep an eye out for more to come!

I know this is rather ironic, me "censoring" a thread created for Banned Books week, but I cannot let it go any further. This thread has quickly turned into a laundry list of generalizations and insensitive commentary on religions and that does NOT belong in the WT Org, where we have members of every race and creed and need to remember that when posting. That kind of stuff belongs on D&D (if anywhere). I apologize that I didn't catch this thread earlier in it's inception. If you have problems with me removing this topic, sorry. It's not going to get put back. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions or commentary. Claire

<a href=" http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/2009/sep/24/ellen-hopkins-anti-censorship-poem">Torch every book. Char every page. Burn every word to ash. Ideas are incombustible. And therein lies your real fear </a> If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind. Were an opinion a personal possession of no value except to the owner; if to be obstructed in the enjoyment of it were simply a private injury, it would make some difference whether the injury was inflicted on…

Hello people! ;D I am thrilled to present to you the three top entries for the story game. To the ones of you who aren't familiar, the task of these writers was to write a story about Kathana, using at least most of the pre-decided set of words. The sillier the story, the better. Those pre-decided words are as followed: Moist, Quadruple, Idiosyncrasy, Lavish, Pretty, Mushrooms, Flabbergast, Alleviate, Perspire, Bladder, Osteoporosis, Unalienable, Fun, Awe, Sick, Tender, Megalomaniac, Unresistablility, Aardvark, Squishy, Sphincter, Boobalicious, Devil, Crusty, Shortcake, Buffoonery, Flip-Flops, Blueberry, Corpulence, Warf, Spongy, Crocodile, Panda, Hypocritical, …

i'm in the process of trying to get a new computer, and i know it's been forever since i was here last. i do apologize for just up and disappearing but it couldn't be helped. my cpu at home pretty much had a melt down, and it seems i need to by a new motherboard in order to fix the problem. but with the economy the way it is now a days, i don't know when i'll get the money to do that. Bubba, my boyfreind, left the computer logged onto a messageboard over night (the same message board that forced us to re-format the computer mind you) back in april. it blew out all the USB ports (which is the only way to hook up my mouse and keyboard) and i'm able to get into the b…

i need soem help with my mother in law, who is a hoarder and has recently asked me for help cleaning up. i don't want to post her story for all to see, but if anyone has any information on how to help an individual that suffers from this conditions i would appreciate the help. if there is a professional organizer or phsycologist on here that deals with hoarders please PM so we can discuss it in more detail. thanks, Red

I'll be occasionally (can't commit to a specific time frame, so I don't disappoint!) posting news articles that I feel might fit into the atmosphere of the Ajahs and Warders Guild. Please join in if you find them interesting! I've already started one in the Blues and will be making my way around to the rest of them today! Claire

What is this organization for? I don't quite understand it. Is it RP, some sort of "fan club", or perhaps a simple sort of charity? Or maybe its a sort of social thing... I'm just not certain.

Hello folks! For Banned Books Week I'll be running a Mafia game! As soon as the 12 spots are taken up the game will start. The game is based on Banned Books so it will be a bit abstract, I think you'll still have fun though! ;D Choose whichever # you like, it determines your role. 1. DSage 2. Alanna 3. Myst 4. Meesh 5. Dsworn 6. Seryanne 7. Lily 8. Luddy 9. Charis 10. Ellianora 11. mnwhiterose 12. Torrie

As part of this month’s celebration of Kathana’s contribution to the WT, we are asking WT members to send Kath some happy mail! Your happy mail could be a card, post card, letter, or even a gift if you like -- just a little something to let Kathana know how much you appreciate all that she has done for and given to this community! We do ask, though, that you please send your happy mail so that it will arrive by October 3, if possible. Not that us WT members are procrastinators or anything . . . ;D *clears throat nervously and looks furtive* If you have access to the Great Hall, Kath’s address is available there. If not, please PM me and I’ll see about getting i…

So far these past few weeks have been all about Kath and how much we unequivocally love her (and we do), but its now time to forget about her and instead focus on someone far more important: Segurant!! *waits for the undoubtedly deafening applause to die down* As you may or may not be aware, Seggy (as we affectionately call him, cute isn’t it?) has been an integral part of Kathana’s life these many years and one might go as far to say she couldn’t have done all she did without him! With this in mind we can hardly let an event like this go by without recognizing the man behind the woman. So now we take this time to honour you Segurant, *clears throat* …

Write a poem about your favorite Kathana memories and post your entries in this thread. The poems can be any style as long as they have to do with Kathana. The champion will be chosen and will hopefully win a cool signature or avatar (if I have time to make one) and of course the awesome knowledge that they finished first in the Poetry Contest for Kathana! Good luck! - Narina Sedai

Kathana, front and centre! Or is that slightly to the left? Off right? Oh just put her over there by the empty table. The other empty table. Have you Gaidin been at the Oosquai again? You know the defendant always goes closest to the jury so they can slip them bribes! What do you mean there’s no jury? Oh right … we have the Judging Council. That would be us. Looks at the empty seats next to her. Shortly. Nods. Anyhoo … there’s a reason we’re here. I’ve got new boots. Puts her feet up on the table in front of her to show off her new red boots. Just check those 6 inch stiletto heels! Cool, heh? Of course, I had to have the Gaidin carry me here because I can’t a…

As part of this wonderful celebration of all that Kath has done here at DM and in the Tower, we thought it would be nice to have something tangible to touch and hold as she sits and rocks on the porch in her retirement! *grins* So..we are putting together a scrapbook of YOUR memories of Kath! Please send any pictures, momentoes, stories...ANYTHING you want to share to celebrate and keep the memories alive for her to look back on after the celebration is over here! LOL maybe a lock of hair, toenail clippings...(well we DO want to include the warder's in this too!) *grins*, a drawing, a painting or even a cross stitch! Please nothing larger than 7x7 inches square! …

In order to give some folks the extra time they need, I'm extending the recipe challenge another two days. The deadline is now Wednesday Sept 30.

It's been a while, so I figured it was time to say hi. So hi. What's going on? Anyone miss me? Anyone.. uh.. remember me?

The word "censorship" has mostly negative connotations for most people. But are there cases in which censorship might be necessary and/or beneficial? Examples for case study will follow, but first let's listen to the opinions on the subject in general.

[glow=red,2,300]ATTENTION: there is a change in the procedure. [/glow] Check out this post by Kara to read more about it. Attention all, In the year of the Light 2009 it is recorded that a severe breach of conduct has been taking root in the initiates of our historical Tower. A breach with custom and law so severe that it can not be ignored or dealt with in the privacy of our home. The Tower has decided that it was high time to send a message that this type of conduct will not be tolerated, so present and future initiates beware. The Amyrlin Seat has, in her wisdom, given full authority to the Highest of the Red Ajah and the Captain-General …

I will be rather scarce for I am not sure how long. I am at the hospital right now. My dad suffered a massive heart attack about 4 hours ago. His heart has stopped 3 times and they have had to shock him back each time. The cardiologist said there is a chance he won't make it through the night. His heart beat is very erratic right now and the angeoplast was unsuccessful so they couldn't get the stint into the heart valve to keep it open. Have to wait until the morning for the cardiac surgeon to get here and evaluate my dad then operate... I feel absolutely useless right now...

The Hall of the Brown Ajah has never been so crowded. Its remote wall was occupied by a weird bulky machine. It made strange sounds, the multi-coloured lights all over its front side went on and off chaotically, on the screen in its middle one could see rows of figures and strange graphs. In a chair in front of the screen sat Ludmian, doing the last-minute tweaking. People slowly trickled into the hall, taking their seats and carefully examining the weird helmets they found on each seat. Each helmet was connected to the machine by a wire. Between the machine and the rows of seats was a dais. On it was a big chair and a helmet similar to those that people found on th…

I've been a baaaaaad OL these last two weeks and I'm very sorry for it. Work got me buried last week and then I've been so sick with stomach flu since Sunday that they actually stuck me in the hospital for it (got out last night) and gave me lots of drugs (the good kind that make you stop throwing up!) and IV bags of saline (wooo saline!) Anyways, I'm vewy vewy sorry for my absence; I'm catching up with everything tonight, and you may all feel free to flog me with spaghetti noodles as long as you like. Claire

Cause they are having an awesome feature coming up in the very near future. The Illuminators Org would like to announce an upcoming Open Q&A with Baen Books author P.C. Hodgell ( http://www.pchodgell.com ). She will join the Illuminators on a thread starting on [glow=red,2,300]October 5, 2009[/glow]. You will be able to ask her questions about her books, the craft of writing, publishing, or if she is willing - life in general. This is your chance to talk a published author and get all your questions answered. So check back on the Illuminators Org board on October 5, 2009. Don't miss this opportunity! If you want to learn more about Ms. Hodgell, …

Don't forget, the deadline for the recipe challenge is almost here. If you have any questions, let me know. I won't be around DM much this weekend, but I'll be near e-mail. Show Kathana the love and send in those recipes!

Hey everyone. I went back a few pages and saw that the newcomers tend to introduce themselves here. I'm Jeff. New to dragonmount, but I came straight here for the warder path. I'm on book six right now and this is my first read through. I have been lurking around for a while now and thought I would join in. So... hi. :)
