A DANCE OF ANGELS

Is now Here!

Except for...

  • The Kingdom of Winlandia - Winlandia is one of the larger and more prosperous nations in the north, consisting of several large population centers and any number of smaller towns and hamlets. Home to a unique race of winged humans, generally referred to as Windians, it is a place of great beauty and magic built among craggy mountain sides and lofty frozen peeks. Ancient engines of the First Age have helped ensure Windias safety and prosperity where most smaller countries have failed, while the unique nature of most of it’s citizenship has granted it a regality and sort of awe among many of it’s neighbors. Ruled primarily by small but elite households of Dragon-Blooded Windians.
  • The Kingdom of Whiteshield - A strong northern nation, Whiteshield is engulfed by majestic mountains and edged to the south by the River of Tears. These beautiful yet formidable natural barriers have ensured that the kingdom has enjoyed a level of protection and seclusion that few other countries and the north can claim. While only consisting of a handful of cities and towns, Whiteshield is prosperous and wealthy. The people of Whiteshield have an unusually close relationship with many of it's native spirits, strengthening the ties most citizens feel to their land and making god-blooded children rather common. Even it's ruling family, the Holyswords, bare a strong divine lineage which dates back to the First Age. Yet what would be even more heretical in the eyes of most the world and kept secret only thanks to it's relative isolation, Whiteshield bears a long tradition of worshiping the Unconquered Sun...
  • Other Locales – The many new places that will dot the landscape of Creation...
    • Snowflakes - Each Snowflake is unique. As is each person they meet during the Dance!
The Apostles of the Shining One - The greatest Antagonists on the Dance so far.

Removed Pages

Many of the pages for this campaign have been moved off site; however, because it is not possible to delete pages from the wiki, they were essentially stranded as Orphans. In deference to the UserFriendlyCategories project, which is trying to eliminate these orphans, links to these former pages are being added back here. At some point, all of these pages (and all of those that they lead to) should probably be edited to redirect back here, but it isn't entirely clear which of these pages have been moved and which haven't.

Comments

Nice... very, very nice. The game looks interestin. And the characters are all too notch. I do have a question thou, you made mention of converted dragonblooded 'hounds', but beyond the 'token' dragonblooded in the form of Kanti and Maera, there doesn't seem to be any Dragonblooded in the service of The Bishop. I know it's a minor nitpick... in any event, it looks stunning, the amount of work put into this. ~ Haku

The game is so so much fun to play in (so good I play in it twice >_<, but then I'm crazy like that) and Kanti is not a token Dragonblood :P But anyway, I know for a fact there are more. The leaders of the Dead Hand are dead Dragonbloods, if that counts ;) Also the General has about 4 Dragonbloods as his bodyguards, and I suspect we'll encounter more when we know more about the other Abyssals in the Bishop's circles. - Kraken

But Kanti does seem a token dragonblooded... yes, she does from my reading of the logs. ^_-

Heh, the Dead Hand don't quite count, but I suppose it's fair enough if their names never come up... they've been reduced to faceless Mook status! I hope more of the Bishop's plans come out and you manage to either save Creation or damn it to Oblivion.
~ Haku

Well, the majority of them *are* faceless mooks... but 90 out of the Bishop's millions of followers, so they are /very damn good/ faceless mooks^_^ And their leaders are not weak at all... Alabaster and Obsidian *did* beat Vorpy the Pale Angel down to bloody pulp, and the only reason they ended up being taken so fast by Selina and Alexander was because the fight had dragged on too long, so I made it faster. But they are all alive still, and I do hope Vorpy will shiver when she sees them again!

No no faceless mooks on the lords!

And on token DBs... well, the General will have four of them. I will split more if needed, but hey.. coming up with the fixed Deathknight number took priority. It's so hard to use Abbyes, what with their low numbers and all... even *Sids* have some 15 per direction, it is easier... *grumbles*

But there shall be more than Maera. Oh, there shall.

I do doubt if any will be scarier than a sadistic Water Immac, though >_> - GoldenCat

EDIT : Kanti is one of the most wonderful chars there, actually. She happens to be a Dragonblooded for the whole meek and her story. She is far, far more than a token!!!
Mmmmh... you do have a point there. She is far more then a token DB. ~ Haku surrending to GoldenCat

Mleh. This be DH. I might not be back for ANOTHER week or so. Long story, I'll explain when I'm back. -DarkheartOne

Mwah... what is going on, man...? We were worried ;_; Opal and Fiona are waiting to finish that scene... and well.. if you want to talk about it, my e-mail is Daniel.Queiroz.Lima@Gmail.com... if you can get on a 'net cafe or anything, please send a message. We are worried, and waiting for Raksha-boy to bring our cute monkey-girl *Nods* -GoldenCat

Just thought I'd note that I'm totally envious of everybody who plays in this game. - David.

Jeezus, GoldenCat, why is this so good?! I just finished reading the Infernal Linowan Shindig prelude, and I'm just utterly shocked. Kudos to you and your players! I can't wait to read the rest. --UncleChu

*Points at the Player list* Those reasons, and no less! The team of Selina, Jon and Mieu you saw is good indeed... and did I give Greymane the credit for playing Laken Knute? If not, then there! The game itself begins a little slower than that prologue, though... that remains my best suspense, ever. By the end of the First Movement it did catch a kind of a pace, at least... -- GoldenCat
Ah, indeed, the First Movement's slower. But its always that way when pitting a bunch of characters together. Inescapable. Domiel's currently my favorite character. A question, though. What sort of XP rate did you hand out? Did the characters walk out with like 120 XP after the First Movement? I'm doing a forum game now, and so its harder to judge progress and XP rate, so I'm curious how you handled it. --UncleChu
The exp is recorded here!, and, usually, it doesn't really have much of a formula to it. Usually, people get lots of exp from logs where big fights happened, or where they acted really well. So, drama = lots of points, relax = less so. Being amusing = lots too, though! And since we post so much and so long it might as well be forum-ish, you could do something like that. I usually award 4-5 exp for normal things, 6-10 for drama( being that I gave 12 for a couple big climaxes ). After awhile, minis begun to count only 2 per person. So, yes... kinda like that! And a pity for Dom, but he gets retired - Grey changes him for Moon! Sorry to tell you... we do want to make him appear more later, but only time - and me STing more than I am nowdays - will tell. --GoldenCat

Allo allo. I've been working on the Orphans project, and I noticed that a bunch of the ADanceOfAngels information was directed to from the Highlights page, which you deleted. I'm wondering if I should restore it, or go through and wipe all the pages that it once led to. - FrivYeti

I'm adding links back to various pages in a "Removed Pages" section. This should "un-orphan" those pages and those to which they lead. This should do for now. - Wordman
