<@Saigh> The meeting will begin with Out of Character Discussion. We will cover topics one at a time and after each discussion topic we will ask for any questions/comments/concerns. At that time it is required that you either type X to indicate you have something to say or ask or - to indicate you are ready to move on. After Discussion, we will move into IC stuff, you may rp amongst yourselves during <@Saigh> this time but keep it to a minimum and remember to cheer on your fellow members. <@Saigh> We have been very lax about member activity for the past couple of months due to the Holiday Season. We are proud to say that many of you have suprised us by remaining dutifully active despite the season, others we know have had family affairs to attend to so absences have been excused. However, those whos activity has been nonexistant have been removed. Moving forward we do expect activity <@Saigh> to continue as per the rules. <@Saigh> Type X for any questions/comments/concerns or - if you understand/accept/are ready to move on <%Ammorez> - - - - - <%Kelais> - - <@Saigh> You guys have experianced some time without the bot. Now I ask you guys what features you would like to see brought back when the bot does return or do you guys want it back at all? <@Saigh> Type X for any questions/comments/concerns or - if you understand/accept/are ready to move on X X <%Kelais> X <@Saigh> Slone I think having the bot around is a good motive to RP. For myself, I like having to maintain my wolf's health and hunger and thirst. I also like that it give the realistic feel of actually eat from the cache and such. I like the bot as it was before it went out of order. :D <@Saigh> Thank you for your input hun <3 <@Saigh> Nuri id like to see the hunting,and members stats return. its easier and makes both hunting and rp more realistic. * @Saigh noddles "Thank you" welcome^^ <@Saigh> Kelz poofed - Ammorez? Lindin? Senan - anything to add X I suppose just that I agree. <@Saigh> Lindin <%Ammorez> x <@Saigh> Thank you Sennie <# I will just add in addition to what has been said in favor for the bot that the order and weather functions are both very useful and I would love to see that stay. <@Saigh> Thankies lindin <3 <@Saigh> Ammo <%Ammorez> I actually enjoyed the rping part of no bot. Of course, it was difficult to get back into the groove of it, (And it made Ammo not injure herself repeatedly..) But I think that without the bot, it brings a lot of closeness to the rp sessions. I feel like I can picture the wolves hunting a bit more realistically that way. * @Saigh nods "Thats something we will take into concideration :) X <@Saigh> Kelz you had something to say about the bot? <%Kelais> Oh right o.o I think we should get her back...and perhaps some additional attack commands, for hunts maybe? So people can say more than attack repeatedly? * @Saigh noddles - Ill definatly look into that! <@Saigh> Lindin Just going off Ammorez's and Kelais' point, hunting does feel very...repetitive. From the one attack function. It tends to end up being a short series of posts just describing what happened or what you saw last then a sentence with -attack in it. So, shaking it up with more commands or other things may be interesting. And may have special effects we could look into. Who knows? * @Haezani (Haezani@fp1kd3hvpbjd4.nxyereh.v4d5ae.26001012.ipv6) Quit (Ping timeout: 248 seconds ) <@Saigh> For sure! Its definatly something to concider to spice things up :) <@Saigh> Thank you everyone for your input. Once I am able to establish the bot again we will take all your thoughts into concideration when rebooting her :) A reminder to those who are or will be playing two characters - Activity is very important in the sense that you must be able to maintain both your main and secondary character. If you begin to slack on your activity you will be asked to choose which character you wish to keep and will be required to release the other. questions comments suggestions x, understand - - - + - <%Kelais> - - <%Ammorez> - In addtion For those playing secondary characters, please remember that each character must be played on individual clients. You may not roleplay two characters on one name. BOTH characters must be in the IC channel at all times if you are active but only one is required to be in the out of character. questions commemts etc (x) otherwise (-) - - - <%Kelais> - - <@Saigh> We will be having another lorenight later this month. I will be posting a sign up sheet on the forum with suggested dates and times to see what is the best for time/day for it. The theme will be "New Years Resolutions" I would like everyone who comes to tell us a new years resolution tehy have for themselves, both in and out of character. A resolution for your human self, and one for your <@Saigh> character. <@Saigh> Type X for any questions/comments/concerns or - if you understand/accept/are ready to move on - - <%Kelais> - - - <@Saigh> Though the winter months are typically very slow for the pack, I think we can all safely say that a driving force to rp is when others request and initiate it. That is exactly what Kelais has pushed for each and every time she comes on and her drive and initaitive to motivate the pack has not gone unnoticed. That is why we have chosen her to be the packs Featured Member. ^^ yay kel!!:) <%Kelais> :o Eeee thank you <3333 Congradulations Kel :D <@Saigh> Youve more then earned it hun <3 Congrats! (: Congratulations, Kelais! =) <%Ammorez> Great job Kel! Just wanna say, She's also one of the sweetest and most active members here <3 <@Saigh> ^ Agreed! <%Ammorez> <3 congrats kel! !!! <@Saigh> Does anyone else have anything to add on OOC matters? X if you have something - if we can continue onto IC discussions. - - aye, shes always the first to greet me when i arrive<33 - - <%Ammorez> - <%Kelais> - <@Saigh> alright then, to the IC we goo! In Character * @Saigh shuffles on her paws, struggling to find a position that didnt cut off the circulation to her hind toes before she started to speak. 14Though I am sure none of you are blind, It is still my pleasure to announce that in a couple of months, two litters of pups will be born. she said, and felt movement in her gut as if the little ones knew they were being talked about. 14This will * @Saigh 14be a big moment for the pack, our first litters not only for us as mothers but for the pack as a whole. The future generations of Kladd`atir will be arriving sometime next month and we will need everywolf who is able to make sure scouting is handled, especailly near the whelping den which Haezani and I will be sharing just outside the hollow near the rockfalls. she explained though she * @Saigh doubted she needed to encourage them any furter. Many had already expressed their excitment... or terror at the prospects of the pups arrivals but she knew it would all work out in the end. * Zani` (Haezani@jato1ow4losrh.nxyereh.v4d5ae.26001012.ipv6) has joined #wolfhollow * %Ammorez lets out a howl for the coming of pups. She was both excited and nervous all at the same time.. More little paws to watch out for in the long run. * Nuri perks at the mention of little ones,howling along with ammorez for there arrival. She loved small ones and was looking forward to there birth. * Lindin simply thought silently about the words said. So, scouting needed to be handled while the Alpha and Beta were going to share the whelping den. Didn't sound hard and might as well go out to assist. The sound of pups were really nice though so he lifted his head up to howl in celebration. * AndroKaz (AndroKaz@14055aef.6ca5ed3b.199.106.imsk) Quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds ) * @Saigh paused for a moment before moving onward to the next order of business. 14After relentless scouting, it has been noted that the Cougars seem to no longer be around. We are raising the restirctions placed on everyone leaving the hollow. YOu may venture as you please now, but please remain vigilant for any signs of their return. * Slone tail wags and eyes he two pregnant faes happily, loving the fact that there are going to be little paws running around. Her tail wags more furiously hearing that the cougars are finally gone, and she doesn't need a partner to venture out anymore. * @Saigh cast her bluegrey hues out onto the wolves of Kladd`atir, scanning each wolven face for the one she was seeking. A smile snuck across her muzzle as she settled her gaze on Slone. 14Please step forward before the pack Slone she called to the older female. She waited for her to approach before speaking on 14You have completed your assessment and done your time as a packmember, its * @Saigh 14now time for you to move up on the heirarchy and it has come to our attention that the rank of Caretaker is the one you wish to hold. As Caretaker you will be in charge of caring for the sick, the injured, the weak, the elderly and the young of our pack. You will need to learn the properties of the resources we have and how to use them to aid in healing injuries. You will be the appointed * @Saigh 14pupsitter of the pack, charged with caring for the young when we are away and for aiding in the mentorship of new members, Is this the rank you desire? * Slone stepped forward a warm smile on her maw. 12 "I'd like that very much. I look forward to holding this rank, and starting my training." 6 Her tail wagged behind her slowly and happily. * @Saigh smiled kindly, she knew Slone would give it her best and had no doubts in her capabilities on the matter. Her tail swished and swayed behind her. 14Very well Slone, You may now present yourself as Caretaker in training of Kladd`atir. she called out, loud enough for all to hear as she raised her head, her song booming loudly as she encouraged the others to join in celebrating * @Saigh Slone's promotion * %Ammorez howls for the newly appointed caretaker-in training. * Senan smiled happily for the fae, raising his maw and howling in congradulations. /me parts her maw,adding her song to the others. woops) * Nuri parts her maw, adding her song to the others. * Lindin howls for the new caretaker in training, his tail waving lightly behind him. * @Saigh would dismiss the newly appointed caretaker with a dip of her charcoal smudged muzzle and called out for the wolves who wished to begin their assessment this evening. When all had arrived to stand in the center of the circle she spoke, her voicing ringing out. 14In order to join our family, we first require a period of assessment. During this time you will get to know us, our pack, * @Saigh 14our members and our ways, as we will get to know you. After a time, you will be asked if membership is still what you desire. If not, you will be released from assessmentship and sent on your way, if so, you will be named members of the pack. Do you all agree to this period of assessment? (Lindin, Nuri - this is you lol) * Lindin perked up at the words of the Alpha and upon arriving at the center of the circle and listening to what the Alpha had to say, he realized that this is what he wanted to do. The male smiled and nodded as he said, in a respectful but excited tone, 2 "Yes. I agree." * Nuri perks, arising she takes her place before her aunt. "Yes i wish to become an assessment of Kladd'Aatir" She speaks clearly and with pride. * AndroKaz (AndroKaz@22jb8j9bae5fqh.7e61oe.px49zfh.26001005.ipv6) has joined #wolfhollow * Zani` (Haezani@jato1ow4losrh.nxyereh.v4d5ae.26001012.ipv6) Quit (Ping timeout: 248 seconds ) * @Saigh smiled as she looked down at the two wolves, and nodded as each in turn agreed to the stipulations of assessmentship. 14Very well then, Let your assessment begin. she said aloud, raising her voice to the skies once again in support of the duo. * %Ammorez lets her eyes wonder over to the two new wolves and smiled softly. She had yet to meet Lindin, but she had met Nuri on several occasions, but either way she happy for the both of them. * @Saigh looks out onto the pack and sees their many forms sway slighty infront of her vision. Yup, the pups had enough of this excitement. Trying to remain composed she called out 14If no one has anything else to add, we can call thsi meeting to an end. she noted with her tail swaying gnetly side to side as she tried to distract herself with the movement
