»navigate _forums _join _plot _dialect »the goings on september sixteenth, 2005, 9:41 on a friday » the forums have all been re-named and new descriptions added. the setting is practically finished, except the wrigyn's place of residence, which is giving sel a little trouble. sel is getting very close to finishing the site. she just has to finish the rules, plot, fauna description...um...maybe not quite. september fifteenth, 2005, 3:39 pm on a thursday » sel wrote most of the plot for Acheten, redid the ugly layout on the base site, and is nearly ready to open. wish her luck! the gold community subscription has been extended to november 5th because ezboard likes to be generous (rarely), but sel is still trying to be done before her birthday, which is in two days. july thirtieth, 2005, 9:07 pm on a saturday » sel is back now and is finishing up the footer pic for the website. she spent the long car trip back from the deep south sorting out details of the plot in her mind, and is now almost ready to put it to paper. or, that is, put it to computer memory. the forum's gold runs out in mid-september, and the goal is to be open by that time. wish sel luck with that. she's not sure she can make it. july seventh, 2005, 11:17 pm on a wednesday » the plot for Acheten has not been completely decided, so it may undergo massive changes in the next few days. sel has been working, mostly, on the website mainpage appearance and content. hopefully, she will finish Acheten soon, and be able to open. she is going away to riding camp from the 23rd to till the 1st, so she'll have to take time off for that, too, but not sadly, as horses are fun. |
»in short admin: sel ambre established: september seventeenth, 2005 opened to public: september thirtieth, 2005 definition: an intermediate-advanced role-play game based on horses, humans, a touch of fantasy, and rural nineteenth-century english village life. the board is located on the ezboard network. setting: Acheten is set in a 'make-believe' place very similar to england's cotswold region. Acheten is a valley surrounded on all sides by mountains, except for one opening on the southeastern side. because Acheten's setting is not a real place, it is not set in a real time, either. however, technological advances include buildings made from stone, thatched roofs, gas lamps, and typewriters. they have advanced very far in some areas, but very little in others. setup: there are three groups within Acheten: the lihen, the csrinn, and the wrigyn. the lihen are humans, and they live in the village that is the rpg's namesake. they trade with the csrinn, a tribe of strange people that live just outside the village. the csrinn are also humans, but every human has a mental connection with a horse from birth, and they ride the horse more than walk. they do not have to speak to communicate with it, and have other, more complex connections also. lastly, the wrigyn are a herd of unusually intelligent and beautiful horses that seem to float rather than move. they are graceful, proud, and extremely dangerous if angered. they occupy the ring of hills, forests, and moors that surround Acheten. |
