    ENW Short Story Smackdown Summer 07 (Winner Announced)

    The Real Beginning by Shawn Feakins When did it start? Hell, may as well say the Big Bang or God fartin', all amounts to the same thing. You can get all sorts of metaphysical with that question. You wanna talk about the squid heads invading? The day when the world wakes up and finds the...

    Ptolus: Midwood - "The Dark Waters of Moss Pond"

    Yay Artos. What readers have to realize is that this is a PbP campaign. So combat can be stretched out over days. Actually, this doesn't make it tedious, but almost maddeningly exciting as we wait for the next round's actions to be posted. With Artos, it all built slowly- starting from being...

    August 1 sounds about as good as possible for me. If it's cool with Cevalic it's fine with me.

    Cool! Go Hellefire! I'm glad I (sorta) broke your streak. Anyway, I'm gone to Comic Con from the 25th till the 30th. Getting on the plane tomorrow. Come August, I'm getting married on the 11th, so to be honest, the entire fricking week leading up to the 11th MIGHT be a wash. Depends on the...

    *blink blink* Well wow. I actually wasn't entirely expecting that. Cool. Thanks to the judges for the kind comments and thanks to Hellefire for being supernaturally gracious. I feel rather guilty for being the fourth writer to force you out in these contests. But I must admit I am eager to...

    Ptolus: The Legend of Longcoat

    "Damn." Ada shrugs. "Well. It was worth the try. I wasn't in this strictly for the money, but it would have been nice. Let's head to that tavern you others mentioned and divvy up everything in this chest there."

    Ptolus: The Legend of Longcoat

    "Doesn't matter what I'm known as as long as my name description is out of it." As the Dockmaster's girl runs down Ada looks around. "We have that scythe the muttering mage is leaning against. We didn't think to do much more with the bastard after we burned him. But if you let us in, we can...

    Just to let people know, I'm going to Comic Con come July 25 and won't be back till July 30th. We'll see how far we are come August, what with that whole wedding thing and all.

    And here begins my absolute favorite fight scene of the entire campaign so far.

    Ptolus: The Legend of Longcoat

    Ada nods to the cleric. "Well some of us wouldn't mind the glory to our gods. Others like myself would just rather keep it quiet. Either way, after we get our reward I'd be more than happy to share a drink and tell you what I know."

    ENW Short Story Smackdown Summer 07 (Winner Announced)

    Yeah, I posted a bit early, but I have friends that will be leaving town soon so much available time will be spent with them. I'm semi-happy with all the picture usage except the second one... It feels more nebulous to me for some reason. Nonetheless, there it is. Hope it is enjoyed.

    They Will Circle the Sky Round 1, Match 5 THEY WILL CIRCLE THE SKY Rain whipped the windows as Ophelia dipped the last strip of newspaper into the sticky plaster and set it gently onto the bridge of what would, eventually, make the nose of the woman. She looked into her project's closed eyes...

    "You could." "Tell you what Master Gnome, how about we leave my name out of it, THEN I'll tell you the story?"

    Ptolus: The Legend of Longcoat

    "Just an annoying little man with a red cap and claws. Scythe optional," Ada points to Garnet. "Bit of gore. Actually lots of it." "Can I ask who you are, just to try to even out the questions here?"

    Great pictures guys. Good Luck Hellefire. I'll read the other stories when I get mine done.

    Ptolus: The Legend of Longcoat

    Ada nods, looking over her shoulder. "Reward sounds good. I had other reasons for coming but.... Sure I'll go with to the Dockmaster. Do we have enough evidence that we killed him?"

    Ada nods silently and quickly moves out past the watchmen, clutching the chest close to her. She'll wait outside very briefly for the others to catch up.

    Enworld Short Story Smackdown (aka Ceramic DM) - sign-up thread

    I work Saturday, Sunday, and Monday weirdly enough. But if that's not work-aroundable, I'll manage. Just glad to be in!

    Ptolus: Midwood - "The Dark Waters of Moss Pond"

    This adventure is, so far in the campaign, my favorite for many reasons. The drafting of poor Oktav is one of them. HORRIBLE DEATH!
