"Autumn has arrived early this year.. I repeat, Autumn has arrived early this year.." (A Godfather's Report)

Hey all,

Chapter 2 has been postponed until Trogdor recovers from his unexpected death army and girlfriend commitments. He is likely to be out of action until early next month.

At the Desert, the Heroes of Maya are helping Hen-Lord Alan locate several missing patrols around Castle Greyskill. Whatever the reason is regarding the disappearances, it seems bent on sending them to the Under, permanently.

Ahh. Talking about mysteries, I have been assigned the role of "Godfather" to my really cute niece, Autumn Elizabeth Kwek.

She was born on the afternoon of  March 18th, and has a full head of jet-black hair and a hearty cry. Her features are delicate and clear; thus I nicknamed her "Christian Advanced 2.0" as she seems like a superior-looking Christian comparing both their Day 1 looks.

The unverified picture above shows an extremely charming Oriental dude cradling Autumn -the equally charismatic girl-child- in his arms. From that snapshot alone, one could see the dude's her smooth skin, wide smile and overall youthfulness.

Attached loosely on the belt of the Oriental dude's slim waist was a hastily written DnD 4e Character Sheet:

Finally, a hearty congrats again to my sperm-laden brother Shane and his toon-generating wife Momo.

I wish Autumn a speedy journey to the day she can walk, talk, and comprehend; discovering that even though her lesser godfather would not be able to get her everything she wants, but one day he might be able to get her something she needs.

Cyall' on the flip side. (Astra's Beginnings to come soon.)

The HoM Fact-Files: Osiris the Mispronounced.

Hi all,

Shell's assassin has a magical fullblade presumably blessed by the Queen of Winters herself. Want to know more? Read on. This excerpt is by Shell, written specially for his character.

For decades he lay in silence and darkness, waiting. Waiting for the call of the Queen to once again pass back through the Veil of Life. So long has he waited that he no longer remembers what spurred him to strike this deal with the Queen or what the Queen demands in return. Darkness is all he can remember now.
Three years ago, the Queen had appeared before him. She led him slowly towards a bright light, a gate through the Veil.


"You shall now be known as Osiris, the Bringer of Death to those whose time is neigh."
She continues, "You will be provided the skills necessary to undertake the task and the revenge you so longed for, along with this-"
The Queen passes a long black blade to him.
"Dath le Sefet. It shall be your instrument for as long as your service is required." 
Osiris marveled at the make of the simple yet elegant two-hander, cold to the naked touch, and the Queen spoke again.
"It possesses greater power, especially if you show that you are worthy of it and the path."

Dath le Sefet replica (S$29.99) Comes in three different colors- Black, Really Black and Too Black.

In an instant, Osiris materialized at the gates of Castle Greyskill. He trained there for several years and left for Maya soon after, a strange calling urging him on.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dath le Sefet? Interesting. Maybe its Elven for "I Teleport quite a bit."

Next time round, I will be posting Alvin's take on Astra-- his reflex-tanking sorcerer, so keep your eyes peeled for it.
