Cloudflare is preventing Quibs from getting onto the boards. Apparently it doesn't like Norway much. He just wanted you all to know he's not ignoring anyone or deliberately not answering, he simply can't get on to DM to post.

I have heard that there is some new activity in the Warders Yard. I would love to be a part of it!! I have a former MoT Thera laying around somewhere who could be of some use. I also have a trainee that needs to start more training. -Crystal

Kyle was really getting into a routine. He woke up fairly early every morning, did some stretches and ate breakfast. Kyle was still getting used to having three meals a day, but he had to admit, anything was better than scrounging for food. Life had changed a lot for Kyle in a short amount of time. The biggest change was physical. He had gained a lot of weight and no longer looked malnourished. He was consistently clean and his fair complexion shone through. Working with several people had made him more outgoing. Kyle was also working on reading. He had learned all of his letters and was still working on reading. He could read simple things though and comprehend…

Taia was walking through the Green Halls on her own, Reki had told her he needed to go and get his own things, when she had said she would send servants he had seemed scandalized. So, she had let him go on his own she had told him where to find her, and if he got lost he would only need to ask any sister within the tower and she could point him in the right direction. After he got to the Green Halls any of her sisters would be able to point him to her room. She was not worried about him finding his way, she stepped into her rooms and yawned what she needed was sleep and a bath, although not in that order bath first. She began to get a new set of clothes ready, there were …

Okay, so I've developed a neat twist in my char - Coraman. She is deathly afraid of Aes Sedai Wait, what? My title already says that? bloody ashes So I've been thinking of some ideas to help Cora get over her fear. Maybe an Aes Sedai who is in a nasty mood? Or an Aes Sedai who takes part of a upcoming punishment of Cora? I'm mean, I know - but hey, it'll make for some fun RPs....

I have had this rp idea for a while but am finally getting around to posting it. Here's the scoop: Murandy: a land of many lords and ladies feuding for power. In this land rife with civil turmoil, brigands, murderers, and thieves roam freely across the countryside, terrorizing the land and its helpless people. These two fiefs are not far from the Andoran border, north of Murandy. Locked in a bitter rivalry with another Lord, one audacious Lady calls upon the White Tower for aide in settling the dispute and helping to restore her lands to stability, lest other nobility, from Murandy or Andor, move in to intervene with their own armies. Only our fair Lady has less than ho…

Who needs ws raised? Or just wants to play? I'm game if you are. Any ideas? Visar falmaien is always up for a spar with sword, spear, or knife, or a friendly chat. He is WS 15. Torvus might want to reintroduce himself as the cynical, alcoholic archer that likes to nerd out on obscure books in the library. He's WS 7. Who's around to play? I was thinking it's been a while since anyone did archery in the warder's yards.

Alright people! We need to develop a gauntlet that we can put up on the wiki for future trainingl this will accomplish different objectives. Balance, speed, endurance, pain tolerance, and all that fun stuff. In the past, only Ren'Shai could run the Gauntlet but I'm opening it up to all paths and disciplines. Trainees, only those with a WS 3 or 4, can run this because it will require a person with fitness and the basic movements to make it through. For now, each one of you, can you please give me an idea of one specific section of the gauntlet? A rolling log? Spinning blades? Oil-slicked ropes? Toss your idea and be a little detailed of how it works. If you want to…

(Ooc: this takes place just after Aek's meeting with the Master at Arms) Visar walked with a hint less of Warerly grace after meeting the new Master at Arms. He had made a horrible first impression, he was sure, and something about the way her single eyebrow raised irritated him so! He did his best to conceal his frustrated feelings, but he was no Aes Sedai. "Come, Aekold, I'll show you around. I'll show you your room first, so you can put up your belongings. Don't worry about them being misplaced or stolen; trust me, you don't want to know what we do with thieves here," he said with a grim smile. There was a reason Tar Valon had one of the lowest crime rates,…

The merchants he travelled with were very polite and grateful to have another armed man among them but Aekold kept his distance. They appeared to be decent fellows and under normal circumstances he would have liked to join in with their revelry but Aekold knew if he was to be a Warder he must be disciplined. “Simply knowing blade or spear is never enough” his uncle’s words echoed, “your mind must be just as deadly. And, lad you must keep it sharp and ready as you would on watch for a raid.” Aekold thought often of his uncle on this trip allowing Aethan free reign. The black horse was not trained but was clever and had a wicked sense of humour. Aekold had grown to love…

Hey guys - I need to submit a monthly report that includes our active RPs. Here's what I got so far. If I'm missing some, please post here with a brief description of the RP and I'll add it. Mention stalled RPs as well please! * * * * * * * * Itchy - Edana, Torvus, and Grey instigate a bar fight in Tar Valon. The Master at Arms will catch them and punish them for un-Tower Guard-like behavior. On-going I'm a Tower Guard Now? - Coraman swears her oaths as a new Tower Guard before a Tower Guard, Aes Sedai, and Master at Arms. On-going Learning the Blade - A trainee, Grey, learns how to handle the sword from a Tower Guard, Rekinu. On-going Stavi…

I received a PM from the new Warder's RGL today including the following idea: Now, to start, I wanna say I really like this idea. I think it would be fantastic to do it. I like the idea of the Warders and AS working together and getting more time together IC and OOC. We all live in the same grounds and we bond each other, so the more chances for people to interact from the members of the other group the better I believe. It could be good if Accepted do it since they have AS there to monitor them and it would be good practice with learning to control their hold on Saidar under stress, in a controlled environment. AS could come voluntarily for it (or per…

While I get everything straightened out with my RP char, I thought to post here to see who is around? As a quick intro, my RL name is Megan, I've been a WoT fan since I was a kid (about 20 years or so) but found Dragonmount back in 2001. I played a few characters but my true character was Seiaman Kera of the Me'Arearth discipline. I'm leaving her buried at this revival but bringing her foster daughter back to life, Coraman. Should be a fun time!

Hi everyone, just posted my arrival thread at the Warders yard, but I was wondering who is our Master at arms or person we would report to when we arrive to train. (I will edit my post if master at arms is incorrect). Also would any of the staff members care to RP this out with me?

Alright, my character was cc'ed so I'm ready to move her along. Technically, she's a WS 7 but I wanted to RP the ceremony. I'm petitioning the WT for an AS, I also need a witness from the Yards. Volunteers anyone? Once I get the participants, I'll start the thread. Thanks!

All - The new WS Advancement System is now updated on the wiki. If you have any concerns or questions, feel free to post here. If you're not comfortable doing so, PM or email me at warderdiv@dragonmount.com - this is NOT set in stone so if you see something you disagree with, let me know. With Visar's help to lay the groundwork, I was able to build this system up based on my observations and research on the Warder staff board. The purpose is to make advancement simpler, quicker, encourage interaction, and makes it more fun. The Mentor/Mentee system is replaced with a "Peer Training" system. Eqwina had already implemented this but it hasn't been ironed out with det…

Here at the DM, it is very easy to find yourself burned out while rping, and needing to take a break from one character or all of your characters. With this in mind, I've created a new rp where we can stretch our writing muscles and try things we have been thinking about, but have never been able to do. The premise is this: the Warders characters have got together and are taking turns telling stories to one another. They can be sad, or funny, long or short. Anything goes, the only rule is that the story has to take place in the WoT universe and associated DM mythology. You can write a new legend for one of the heroes, or a made up silly story, or even retell one of your c…

In the past, we always relied on the availability of mentors to help our trainees and tower guards to increase their WS. However, due to the low activity levels here, that will be like climbing Mt. Kilmanjaro during a massive winter snowstorm. So, after discussing with Visar and hashing out ideas, we came up with this. I'd really appreciate your feedback before we make it official. Once we get more members and activity kicks up, we can tweak the system or go back to the mentor/mentee system. So! Without further ado..... The New Peer Training System Active players are encouraged to respond to RP requests for training on the Warders RPG OOC board. Instead of…

I read somewhere that character progression has been revamped but can't find any info on it? Is there a thread somewhere here that I am missing?

*bows to the women of the Tower* I find that I am in need of an Aes Sedai to witness Coraman's Tower Guard ceremony. She doesn't really know any Aes Sedai yet and she is intimidated and frightened of them (her first time meeting an Accepted, she emptied the contents of her stomach). We probably can do a retro RP of Coraman and you meeting. From an OOC perspective, I've reactivated Coraman and was approved to increase her WS in order to train more victims TGs for y'all to bond. Let me know if you're interested! Thanks!

There's been an update to the Novice Reqs! It's very small, and it should make the work a little less tedious. However, the update still deserves your attention. So, head on over to the Reqs board and take a gander. And don't forget to R&U!

My character is going to go and get locked in a cupboard (reason is as of yet unclear) and it's going to be dark. She's going to freak out cause she's scared of the dark, and need someone to get her out and calm her down a bit and maybe chat a while. Would you be willing? She's gonna go from that to an RP with Nya.

Tar Valon seemed dizzingly familiar as Visar trod its streets once again. After being in the Tairen countryside to visit and settle things with his family, Visar decided his absence had gone on long enough. Still, he had been able to think and have plenty of alone time, riding in the countryside and enjoying some peace and quiet. There was something to be said for that, even as he felt his breath quicken at all the hustle and bustle of the big city that was his true home now. He could feel the emotions through the bond much more clearly than he had in a long time, too. Rasheta Sedai was excited and nervous at the same time. Visar felt a slight pang of guilt fo…

Knock Knock Knock "Michelle, will you please come out? I promise no one else is here." Knock Knock Knock "Come on, your food is getting cold!" Michelle buried her face into her pillow again, wishing that Arath would just leave her alone. She didn't want to eat. She just wanted sleep. Lots and lots of sleep. It had been 5 days since the attack in the woods, and she was still not leaving the house. She wouldn't even leave her room if Arath wasn't there, and if someone else was in the house, she just laid there and cried. She didn't want to be vulnerable again, and the only safe place was at Arath's side and in her room... she hoped. Knock Knock Knock …

"We don't need you in the lists, cripple. Can you even swing a sword?" Kerris shook his head no, and the officer guffawed. "See? You would be a danger to yourself and others around you. Go back to your farm, boy. The Lord Dragon has no use for cripples." Kerris wondered if this pompous windbag would be laughing after he showed off his knife work, but decided against it. It would likely get him thrown in the stocks, and besides, throwing knives wasn't much help on the battlefield. As much as Kerris hated to admit it, the goat-brained officer was correct. He was no use here. Kerris walked away and found a place on the baked earth to sit while he decid…

Is Arinth literate enough for this undertaking/are there any other characters who would be good at teaching Arkin how to read and write?

It has come to my attention that there is interest in having a Facebook page for the White Tower RP members on Facebook. This would be used to keep in touch should DM go down, as it often does lately, and we could post news of new members or any Ajah news you wish to share. This would not take the place of the OOC boards, rather it would serve as a reminder for people to check them. I would be more than willing to have such a group on Facebook, and so now I would like to have your thoughts on it as I would like it be something that all WT Staff are comfortable using to advertise news and draw their members back home to their Ajah boards. These are the options…

Let's see some activity people, getting those votes submitted for your favourites. List of the finalists Instruction and Voting Form Deadline is Saturday, March 2
