Hey all - As you may or may not have noticed, I am taking a break from the game, and shall be doing so for the forseeable future. I bet I'll still be poking around, but I won't be able to spend a goodly deal of time here for the time being.

As far as RP goes, rumors might have it that Elycia Innovius is heavily with child and has settled herself, for the time being, in a small city within the Far North. She writes letters to Candlekeep now and then, and has submitted formal resignation papers from her position as Editor of the Baldur's Gate Gazette. Chathra De'Karanos did not leave word outside of the Enclave of the reason for her departure, but perhaps something could be gleaned from those Thayans within.

All the best to you all, happy RPing :)
~Elycia Innovius, Reader of Candlekeep, Bardess of the Performer's Guild, and Editor of the Baldur's Gate Gazette.

Beloved BGers,

Some people have noticed I have been very scarce recently. I have just landed a new job in a new city, a major career step for me but also a logistical nightmare while I find a new place to live, move etc. I am therefore going to be away for a while longer, and it may be some time (at least a few more weeks) before I am settled and online once more. I'm going to try and squeeze in a priority event over the next week, but will otherwise be unavailable IG. If you were planning something with me, or are currently waiting on me for something else, please PM me a reminder so I can try and deal with it or involve another DM.

Thank you for your patience!

Good luck, Ashalon could use some rest as well :D .

I am going to be less active for some time, simply because Guild Wars 2 is awesome. I read the forums often, however, and if anyone needs Laitae or Nëa for anything, you can PM me and I'll log on.

I'll also log on now and then just because I need my dose of RP! :P

EDIT: I will of course go through with the Drought investigation and stuff as soon as possible, but as DS is also busy and he was the DM who wanted to take it, I guess we'll have to wait a bit.

I'm backish, not as much play time as I want but hopefully enough playtime I can start getting things caught up for my characters and maybe get into a semi regular playing schedule again. I missed you all bunches!

I'm sure stuff has gotten lost in the fray of late so if you need me, or what not, toss me a PM on the forums.

I'll be away for an undefined time. I'll probably still browse the forums with my morning coffee. :)

Have a great time, Nomster. And...yeah, I do the very same with forums and coffee :)!

Unstable availability there, explained in this topic. If I can pull off underclocking and low resolution play until I upgrade my PSU, I'll be around IG, if not.. then Hello forum RP!

As if you weren't posting enough..
And though I played the role,
I lost my soul, it's still within your heart.
It took a part of me, the heart of me..
To watch it fade away, It's over now..
Shades of blue and purple haunt me..

I had to stay a week longer in Portugal than expected, so those that are involved in storylines with my toons, I just want to let you all know nothing has stopped or disappeared-- I'll finally be back behind my gaming computer next week, and will be able to work out with DMs the next chapter(s).

As for the rest of youz: get ready for unprecedented item naming and very bad Gray Orcs doing very bad Gray Orc things.

Had some last minute, almost emergency stuff pop up. Should have things cleared up by Monday at the latest.

Sorry everyone.

Okay. No one panic. Almost emergency means it wasn't an emergency and is now safely dealt with. :)

However, real life is refusing to truly let me be until the winter months, with the exception of major holidays and what little I can steal between now and then. :evil:

I have promised a Meri day Exactly seven days from now (and part of Wed maybe). :D Not sure who can catch her when, but I'll try to catch up with as much as I physically and mentally can. We'll run the Saint ragged like the good old days. I'm afraid if you want to assassinate the Saint... You'll have to take a number. :P :lol: (I kid, I kid...). Send PMs first so I can try to shuffle all of this to get as much done as I can.

Scarlett, Echo and Alayna I'll sneak in when I have time. ;) As much as I can, promise. I know there's a lot of pending RP in the wings. Extra special hugs, and sorry guys for the repeated rain-checks I end up writing of late. :cry:

I will be completely unavailable all day tomorrow for a couple of weddings. So that isn't so bad. :mrgreen:

The next weekend: Friday Sept 21st-Tuesday Sept 25th I'll be out of state =D More weddings and some other fun stuff. I still miss my computer though. :|

I'll lurk about the forums as much as I can. Meri can be found in the IC forum threads for The Orphanage, the Temple, or you can reach her/me by PM. I may be stuck doing forum RP until the end of the month at this rate. :x

The rest of the girls, ICly by PMs for now if needed. I'll get in game as soon as I can! 8-)

[Edit: Well the smileys at least made me feel a bit better about it... HAHA. I miss my computer!]

This is simply unfair. RL hates me. Or maybe RL is a Bhaalist who hates Meri... because I am so sick its... sick. If the trip gets canceled because of how sick we are, I'll see you about. Unless we just stay sick. In any case... I'll be about the forums, but not likely in game. :cry:
