Here's where we can talk about improvements we'd like to make, goals, etc. Updates will now be featured at the top of this page, so we can easily see what cool new stuff everyone's been working on. Try to remember to put a little blurb in here if you add anything even moderately substantial to the wiki.

• 11-23-08 New Chaim and Talin Art! More detailed description added to Chaim's page.
• 03-03-08 A new holiday Kyuss worm, a more elaborate description of Talin and her current gear, and a brand-spankin'-new page on which we may record all our insane and inane Quotes. Check 'em, out, and do me a favor, while you're at it: put up a more detailed description of your characters, too. This will help me obtain the most accurate fanart possible; Thanks in advance, and enjoy!

• 02-07-08 New Filge and Vincent Art today, as well as the first of a smattering of updated tekteks. Also debuting today is the WhatIf page. I got this idea from a combination of all the odd tekteks and heromachine versions of our AoW characters I've done that just don't have a place in the storyline as of yet (characters in fancy party clothes, for instance), and Dan's newly photoshopped Filgey Idol, which made me think, "What if Filge really was a rock star? We can never have a drawing of him with a guitar or anything, since it doesn't fit the continuity..." So alternate-universify away, fellow fanfolk, and let your imaginations run wild. Also, don't forget V-Day is just a week away...the Kyuss worm surely hasn't...
• 09-12-07 If you're reading this, then it hopefully means the Updates page has been restored to its former glory. The weird "everything's a link" issue seems to have been resolved on Chaim's story page as well. To be on the safe side, I did finally change the password (The problem was that I used my other email address, that I barely ever use, I think because I was afraid I couldn't be an admin on two wikis. >.<), and email has been sent to several members of the illustrious wiki staff, hopefully to be disseminated to all. As always, any questions or comments can be left on the page here, or emailed to me if you want to get involved with the wiki and need the password.

• 09-08-07 Chaim has added the first two parts of the most recent adventure in A+Bard's+Tale! After many additions this thing is 13 pages long! You have been warned!
• 09-03-07 Croidhamsa has finished his journal entry about the battle with the Black Dragon. He has also added more information about his unusual companion, Insight. He'll have more entries soon... and there may be other new content soon now that we're playing again! Yay!
• 08-15-07 Fern has added another page to her... grammatically challenged journal!
• 08-02-07 Good god, it's been a long time since the last update. A silly pic in the group section, an adorable one of Tree-I mean, Croidhamsa, and three, count 'em, THREE new Fern pics. I also scored some teensy little pixel dolls of Chaim, Fern, Thomas, Talin, and Filge, but I'm not sure where to put them. I was hoping for one of everybody, but the artist gave up, I guess. Anyway, enjoy!
• 07-25-07 Talin's Nightmare has finally been added!
• 04-04-07 Smell that? It's the delectable aroma of new fan art! Feast your eyes on more art from Motobon, who has provided us with Sorin and Filge, the cuddliest antiheroes ever. I'm also beginning the process of tagging all the pics with "Age of Worms," which should theoretically help the search engines sniff us out a little better.
• 03-30-07 Not entirely sure what to do with this, but the party's Nightmares have been posted! (Talin and Filge's are missing) They can be seperated onto different pages whenever.
• 03-24-07 Hey! Croidhamsa has been adding more pages to his Journal! Check it out!
• 3-19-07 Yes, once again, we have an update to the Chaim Art section!
• 3-11-07 At the request of the board mistress, I (AJ/Chaim) have included "the Dark Side" ramble to Chaim's page. Hopefully it doesn't confuse anyone too much.

• 3-08-07 Ordinarily I wouldn't post an update for just one fanart, but for some reason I'm smitten with this one. EDIT: We have our first Insight Art!
• 3-07-07 A couple new arts; check out Talin Art, Fern Art, and Other Art if you haven't yet. Tarn also has more info up now; as always, feel free to wiki-fy/link any relevant blurbs of text. Also, most of the characters now feature glitter text header names. ...Except Filge. Guess he's just not a sparkly kinda guy.
• 3-03-07 Hmm... the party seems to have added more recent opinions of one another.
• 2-26-07 Finished adding more info to the character pages. I don't know everything there is to know about any character besides my own, so please correct any errors I might have made. Also added a Fern Art, which is not the greatest, but if you click the link, you can watch it being drawn, which I suppose is pretty novel. More talented artists are invited to display their skill.
• 2-23-07 Finally, more animated pics! Check out Chaim Art, Filge Art, Talin Art, Thomas Art, Vincent Art, and Motey Art! Sorin is in the works!
• 2-22-07 Working on adding more info to the character bio pages, starting with Talin and Fern. Also added a short page on spiked chains... :)
• 2-21-07 Fern Art and Tarn Art updates. The Tarn one is especially spiffy, IMO.
• 2-16-07 More Group Art. Yaaay!
• 1-22-07 Motey finally has his own page, and Filge gets more info as well! Croi and even Dourstone scored some new line art, and as usual, there's more Chaim Art.
• 1-18-07 Mine Managers page added to the Cast of Characters section. They're all a bunch of jerks, really, but each one is unique jerk in his or her own way... Info up for Allustan, Smenk, and Zalamandra, with more NPCs to come! Finally, Chaim Art and Talin Art by yours truly, RD.
• 1-15-07 Croidhamsa now has an animated pic! Also, check out the Miscellaneous Art!
• 1-9-07 Thomas Art update. This one is very cute, so please check it out!
• 1-08-07, Fern Art, Filge Art, and Group Art updates, with more to come!
• 1-05-07, added a few more simple fan-arts, and I've commissioned a couple multi-character scenes, so look forward to more soon!
• 12-31-06, Almost the new year, and I managed to finish an animated Fern pic! The chain was gonna be animated.. until 80 layers in to it I realized it was taking too much time... ~AJ
• 12-25-06 Merry X-Mas! I (Gemini Drake) make you art!
• 12-24-06, 5:35 pm - Happy Holidays! Motey has his first Fan Art! Check it! ~AJ
• Check out the way-kewl group art by Hera Hestia. Romance is in the air... Also a new Vincent Art to check out, if you haven't yet.
• Additions to the Fern and Chaim FanArt pages! Whee! ~AJ
• 12-19-06, 4:30 pm - We have a functional sidebar, a more descriptive title, and I've added a bit more "color" to the pages. See if you can find it! I also added some tags to our page, so it will hopefully be easier for search engines to find. -c-
• 12-19-06, 2:45 pm - Finally added descriptions/gave credit to artists on the FanArt pages. If you add/have added art, be sure to attribute it to the rightful artist. Also, a new Vincent Art by spontaneousness!
• Chaim has A Bard's Tale up on the journals page! A narration that flits here and there that may or may not need some serious editting ^_^ ~AJ
• Chaim and Talin have put in their two coppers about their fellow party members - won't you return the favor?
• We now feature THREE journals - woo! Plus two more entries for our druid! Check out the Letters From Talin, Fern vs Grammar, and don't forget to add/update your own entries. Oh, yes...did you know Life ain't Fair?
• Found a picture of a tomb mote...not what I expected, but still weird and creepy. And he still makes that odd growling sound, no doubt...

• Gettin to that time of year...everybody, start figuring out what your schedules will be as soon as you can, alrighty? I know I'll probably need at least a week or two to really figure out how much time I'll need for study, but at the same time, the sooner we can get together, the better, right? Maybe we can put up a calendar section on here to better coordinate scedules?
• For a group artwork, I'd like some input on design. Would we like something like videogame cover art? Should Sorin be a faded bust like in some art a fallen hero is? Should we wait a few more books before commissioning a couple hundred dollar massive CG artwork from this lovely woman who is all too happy to oblige? I was thinking of Elf for the T-shirt/poster design thingy. What do you guys think? And if you want individual game design quality single character CGs, it's $150 without a background (example on her deviant art page) She's a really nice lady who will bust her rump to get everything exactly right. I don't know but I'm excited

• Should we post up a sister Wiki for Savage Tide?
• If'n ya want, I suppose I could support such a project...seein' as how it's the game I'm running and all...;) My main issue is that it's mostly the aj/rd dynamic duo working on this wiki, with input from the Treesong and the Dan. I feel a little silly putting work towards yet another wiki that the bulk of the group won't even look at.

• AJ, a bit of info explaining Chaim's "shift" towards evil might be useful. Right now it seems a bit incongruous with the rest of his description. The folks at home want to know! :)
  • Will do cap'n! I've been trying to work around school and stuff to actually write more Bard's Tale stuff. I don't even have the first adventure up yet. *hangs head* But hopefully that'll clear some of it... or put it up on the front page maybe...
  • Thankie muchly!

Should updates to the art pages be put at the top, or the bottom? It's really just a matter of personal preference, but since there are a lot of persons making use of this site, I thought I'd ask. -c-

• I think the rearranging of the Fan Art may be a neat idea. Let's see how it looks?

If anybody knows an artist who's good at drawing characters with facial hair, 'twould be much appreciated. Gaia artists tend toward a distinctly non-beardy anime style.

• I can draw beards prety well, and am in the process of completing some Croi stuff :) ~AJ
• I (AJ/Chaim) have put up Chaim's alignment on the character page with link to definition-- is that a good idea? I think it'd be neat to list our alignments like this...
  • I like it! So much, in fact, I've made it standard practice for each character's bio page. rd

I'd like everyone to write a little bit about their character, so it could be in your own words instead of mine.

• It could also be cool to have a section in each character's profile where they say their opinion of the other characters, like in the old World of Darkness books. Help flesh out the party dynamics.
  • Hmm... how to get the opinions of Croi, Vincent and Thomas ...
  • Croi prolly won't be too much of a problem, but the other two... it's actually kind of funny, since they tend to be the most opinionated in the group..

• I've been trying to round up as much artwork as I can for the characters. If you feel it doesn't accurately represent your conception of your character, or you want more, please feel free to add to the collection.

• If anyone has difficult internet access, I (Treesong) am willing to type up handwritten entries or changes for you. Just be sure that (A) your handwriting is semi-legible, and (B) it's less than 10 bazillion words... :) (9 bazillion is OK)

What a cool wiki! Cool text, cool artwork, not as bare-bones as you made it sound. It makes our characters feel that much more real! I'm definitely excited to return to the adventure soon... :) In the meantime, I may do a bit more editing on my page and elsewhere.

• 08-02-07 Updates! Yay! I'll try to get Croi's journal up to date... if I can remember what happened after all this time... :) They were some pretty memorable experiences though, both in character and out of character, so I think I've got it covered...
• Treesong sets mode +w00t Age-of-Worms :)

"Wow" is exactly what I said when I saw this. I agree, great artwork and everything else! It took me a little while but I finally contributed... and in the future they will flow more coherently I swear! What a wonderful way to chronicle our adventure!

• Hmm... maybe I should get off my duff and actually chronologue the adventure...
• This site is becoming mostly fan art and Croidhamsa entries... we need to pick up the slack! *smacks self*
• Does anyone else have a problem with their pages re-editing themselves in strange and very bold manners?
• All I can say is be careful what you hilight, otherwise you might end up putting an involuntary disappearing act on some of your content. Happens a lot when I'm editing the art pages. Fortunately, I've got most of the pic backed up now. rd
  • I don't highlight anything and it seems fine before I save it. I come back to the page later and it's centered, bolded, and who knows what else :P
• Must... post.... adventure! Must... remember... dialogue! Unfortunately I am inspired to make art and I'm not finished with other people's stuff yet!

The Filge/Talin Picture is CREEPY!!!

• Why is it creepy? Necromancers need love, too... reality_deviant
  • That made it all the more creepy... ~AJ
