Welcome to the Announcements thread! Normal posts are guild announcements concerning rules/updates etc etc (EDIT - most of them, I forgot with some and can't go back to change it! sweatdrop ). And all posts that are elaborate, shouted or otherwise decorated means they are story advancements in the plot! emotion_yatta
TEAM ELEXIR
In 3 unique locations the same announcement was made. In the halls of Asmodius College the General stands center-front stage beginning his announcement. He thanks everyone for coming, helmet under his arm, and lets out a hand to invite Lucas Purevelion to the stage. Long white hands covering his shoulders and back draped from his head. He wore white and silver robes whilst his blade, uniquely crafted, stayed on his waist. Only in the sunlight did its blade become visible.
At Merlin Academy, in the main atrium before Merlin's Tower the headmaster greeted all the students and called for silence, with a brilliant arcane serpentine dragon that curled around the tower. He wore slender blue robes that were shorter than that of traditional clothing for wizards and in one hand held a transparent screen.The room was bustling with wannabe magi and technological students.
And in the courtyard of Hope Academy, the headmaster of Hope walked out to the sunlight and held a half-staff in one hand, holding the tip like a higher class walking stick. He wore green sunglasses as well as purple and black attire, it looked like traveling, fighting gear as well as looking sophisticated at the same time.
Soon each school became silent and awaiting for the official announcement. At Asmodius, Lucas nodded before speaking proudly. At Entei, the headmaster moved some items over from his device as they appeared on screen and loudly presented the message. At Hope, the headmaster merely held up and hand and began:
"Welcome, all enthusiastic students, as you know our world is peaceful, and the 2 academies and Asmodius College thrive to train you to preserve this peace. Today, i announce Team Elexir. A small group of you that sign up will be chosen for your skills to be a part of this very special event. Those chosen will travel to Skyfall to meet with me (Lucas Purevelion) where you will prepare to journey to the Isle of Elexir. This opportunity is perfect for advancing in your own skills and improving yourselves with others as well as opening future opportunities. Why you travel to the isle? To ward off Scarred and safely secure the island with powerful seals. Please, if you wish to sign up, enter your name and personal statement to the ('computers' at Merlin Academy. 'Box' at Asmodius College & 'Fire pit' at Hope Academy). And remember, this will not be easy, but after success , your experience earned will be invaluable."
At Hope Academy, the headmaster nods before walking off-stage as many hopefully students rush to enter their names to the fire. At Merlin academy lines form to enter names on computers and within Asmodius many take paper and begin writing to sign up. However, at Asmodius College, Lucas looks to Selyne and and gets off the stage to speak with her.
'don't worry. I know you're new and have less experience at the college as the other's do. But if you decide to join - I will gladly make sure you get a place. After all, what better experience than this when you're new'
<<<<< To anyone that wishes to sign up for Team Elexir, (i know not many characters exist yet) then please private message me and i will tell you where to go to meet with the other lucky members chosen. Remember this is only open for characters attending Asmodius College, Hope Academy and Merlin Academy. This opportunity is a quest that will travel from Skyfall to The Isle of Elexir (see map in book of Horad Caiin) and will give rise to socialising, fighting and plenty of rp'ing with plots on the way.There won't be many places so start signing up!, Selene, if you would like for Selyne to be a part of this let me know and she has her place smile , it will be worth it as it holds important information in store for the Divine Race.>>>>>

Hello members.
I want to thank those of you being active. My only reward for that so far is becoming a part of extensive storylines. Also, the World Map in the Book of Horad Caiin has been updated to better suit recent changes made to available locations.
Please help to contribute to the guild and keep it active, that is all i ask, tell your friends, or even borrow the banner for your signature. You'll be in my good books ^_^
Thankyou

ENTEI - CAST IN SHADOWS
The day was shining brightly int he skies of Entei, the city of intelligence for the Arcaz Sovereignty. As the Hover Train passed through the central city from the Hypersphere Stadium, however, some unwanted guests take a ride above. On its first stop at the Plaza, four well covered men in black leather, some tightly fitting others with layers of dark cloth. It was hard to see their faces and they only ever walked i the shadows of the metallic city. When they passed into the darkness, they seemed to simply disappear. Bending the shadows around them they could see out but none could see them.
The great Arcane Crystal above the plaza is what they targeted, but one of the four was stood beside a security camera. Even though in darkness... the robet security system of Entei was far too superior. As the robot unfolded and beamed out soft lights that turned read it unfolded arms, legs, hands and head. And then many others came to life from lamp posts, walls and other features.
The other three were forced from the shadows and all four gathered in the center as around them gathered armed security robots. It was like their mission had come to an abrupt end, obviously outnumbered and obviously out armed. But they had one thing that the droids didn't. They had team work! As the robots closed in, the four men walked backwards closer to each other and at the precise moment, they all joint hands and like a burst of energy hit the droids they were gone. With the combination of their power they managed to escape and with great speed go back into the shadows of the robots, slashing limbs and heads off each one that got in their way. After about a minute they returned but running towards the great Arcane Crystal that floated high up upon the pinnacle of the towers on the north side.
Using the shadows on the walls they ran up quickly towards the grand, glowing blue crystal that seemed infinitely darker in the middle. Light blue eye-like features glowing from within too. As they got higher the shadows began to lessen, but this wouldn't stop them. Before the shadows ended, cast by the other surrounding buildings and Merlin Academy three of them jumped into the air between the two buildings and linked their hands in a lattice. The fourth jumped into their hands and was thrust high to the tip of the crystal. It was giant, and glorious, it distributed its power to many of the surrounding buildings. But so easily, the final, shadow bending invader brought a long, thin, black and purple crystal from his own sleeve and placed it on the Arcane Crystals tip.
As they dropped towards the ground, the Arcane Crystal became plagued, it's eyes closed and it's entire body became black. Without further warning the city was surrounding in a dark shadow like the sun had never touched it. A shadow dome was now in place, and the intruders... missing.
_______________________________________________________________________
In recent events, preparations for the first expansion for this guild are in place! This 'patch' involves the invasion of Entei. Anyone within Entei as of the moment will be unable to leave or enter for a short period of time! News of this event will spread across Occulas quickly, and the High Guild of Absolution will soon have the intruders in their grasp, answering tot he guild leaders in the court very soon! But for now.. enjoy the implications this upholds! Experience problems with electronics powered by Arcaz Sovereignty, try to work out the mystery of what is happening, and if you want to become more involved to the main plot, ask me, and i shall include you the best i can!
Please enjoy the story line that will bring back a forgotten guild to our world, and a forgotten land. The Land of Crows will be open soon, and Delorius'tatem: the Conclave of Declasia will be an option in the coming weeks! Don't worry, peace will soon take hold once again.
Thankyou

The Burning of Days
It has been several days now, and odd shadows have appeared across the globe. Last week, some loyal students have become heroes in cleansing the Isle of Elixer from Scarred plague. But now is not the time to rest. Shadows have cast upon the land, scarring the light in Magic Earth during the coming days. Entei had fallen to darkness, Asmodius was attacked by dark assassins, Skyfall the same and Shard City is currently preparing the the oncoming onslaught.
But not all is as it seems. Through all this confusion, this frustration that no one could answer, the Court has divulged information. After the attempts of treason upon the cities of the Guildeam, the High Court of Absolution has taken the intruders for questioning and they got what they wanted. Those taken to the court for questions were actually surviving remnants of the forgotten guild, the Conclave of Declasia, or historically known as Delorius'tatem. The guild was once cast away from the Guildeam shortly after the Jewel War, supposedly for helping to fuel it by bringing demons to our world.
However, what the Guildeam was told was far from bringing harm. The shadowmancers as they call themselves, bring help. They have foreseen an onslaught, an attack by the Scarred of Bloodholme on each city in the night. The shadows that the guild cast were in fact protective barriers to help protect the major cities. And even though the shadows are down now... the Guildeam knows what is happening, and the High Court has accepted the forgotten guild to walk amongst them once again.
So take up your sword, your magic or your mind, and try your best to survive the oncoming attack. For this is not some kind of childs play, this is an attack from the children of Hell, children of demons!
_________________________________________________________
Welcome to the next plot advancement, now that the Conclave of Declasia has been accepted once again the borders of The Shade may or may not be removed. But now it is more likely that members of the conclave guild will be sighted outside of its borders. Getting within the Land of Crows shall still be difficult, but admission can be granted. For now though, various things shall happen across Magic Earth (in the form of guild announcements). These will all be due to the Scarred forces of Bloodholme, the rebel race, outcast from the rest of the world for its demonic lineage. I will bring this part of the plot to a close in coming weeks and hope this will help to bring members together to rp together in a fun and exciting method.
Any questions or suggestions, please feel free to use the OOC threads, suggestion box or even pm me.
Thanks

Darkness Is Coming You've defeated the onslaught of Hell, you have battled your way through bloody Scarred and even the demons of Torment. En'radial is finally locked away and will forever have her soul imprisoned within the Crimson Soul Stone. You must be pleased? Magic Earth is once again at peace, the Guildeam, the government consisting of the Guild Leaders has accepted an alliance with the Conclave of Declasia, however they do not wish to join. With their land now available for you to traverse and discover, there's no doubt you will find something productive to do.
But peace is never without its brewing consequences. There are poems of a lingering darkness that will bide its time and rise when mortals can no longer hide. The Daywalkers know it well, and tell such poems to their children, share such legends with their scholars and cause fear in their villains with the very mention of it. Over the horizon comes a new era, an era of prosperity and new connections of renewed acceptation. In the skies, in the marshes and over your shoulders, the Darkness is Coming.
Prophesied by Weathermancers of Shard City, foretold by Runereaders of The Land of Crows and analysed by scientists of Entei... it will take us by surprise and will be of unknown origins. Old stories appear to suddenly be coming real, the moon will finish its final astronomical alignment for many years to come and one man is destined to corrupt all that he touches. The Legend of Darkness has spread far and wide and now it is finally coming for you, each and everyone one of you.
Only time will tell, and on Christmas Eve is it said to come to one conclusion, an end which is not preordained, a moment in time and space that may, even in the bleakest of times... be stopped.
_____________________________________________________________
Welcome, welcome, my Occulians! I hope you're all happy with the guild and having fun, if not, help me make it better! As for the new plot advancement, it involvs an age old tale handed down through the centuries of Daywalkers from the Land of Crows. The Legend of Darkness was created hundreds of years ago and foretold a link between the Full Moon and the Underworld coming together during a cause of astronomical alignments over many years. Now, this is all petty theories from old dead men, but then the Jewel War broke out, and rumours of the Black Jewel thrived and fuelled the Legend, saying it was a part of it. Later, over many centuries the legend became a tale, a poem told to children to scare them from being evil, from doing wrong.
And now... not many people bat an eye lid over it. However… it would seem some odd occurrences have taken place recently. At the City of Crows, dark clouds gave spawn to shadowy creatures and what would seem a corrupted angel, fallen from the supposed Heavens? The tides off the coast of The Shard have slowly become more treacherous. Lastly, the nights seem to be lasting… longer? Youre character will perhaps have noticed the changes in the lengths of the nights, but perhaps blamed that on winter?
If anyone will like to get involved get in touch with me, this is a small plot, relatively speaking, and will entail a lot. Anyone can join in and hopefully i'll get to a good point where i can include everyone towards the end! There will be random events happening around the world as well, just to let you know, hope you have fun emotion_yatta
P.S. This plot shall do very little in Magic Earth for some time, all that will take place is minor affects such as nights becoming slightly longer or tides being more extravagant due to moon-like interactions by this plot. I will make the plot properly come into action after Christmas, because I have something extra special planned for Christmas that I hope you will all enjoy, and it involves a blue box. *spoilers* I shall post more on this very soon!

Okay, just a quickie Occulians! Around or just after christmas i'm going to end the Christmas Special which is set on Christmas Eve and the day before in Magic Earth. Now, the Christmas Special begins today, with a very special guest appearance which i do hope you will all enjoy, and i hope i can RP them with justice served. Anyone can get involved, pull you're characters out of where ever they are or in the middle of if you need to, treat this like an event that shouldn't effect other's too much.
As for the plot, it all ties around the Darkness that is coming. Importantly, Zoltan Maues who is using it to his advantage, and guess what he wants? He wants to use this power to get to Non-Magic Earth and ruin Christmas, the most precious time of the year to strike fear in non-magic people and to enslave humanity. It will take each and every one of you to figure out what is going on and to cause the end to begin. Because if you don't... the world will succumb to the Darkness much sooner than anticipated. So! Everyone, grab you're bags, your sword, your magical book or merely you're thoughts or something, because two people are going to need your help to unexpectedly stop this traitor before leaving for England... Now, must dash, follow me for the plot advancement...

"GERONIMO!!!"
* - - - *
"Clara!? Clara?! Are you-"
"You should really learn to land properly" said a young woman, sweeping herself down.
*sounds of gas escaping from pipes and aching machinery*
"I'll take that as an okay then..." Said the mystery man, almost with a sigh. He then seemed to burst into life and raised his brows when he ran over from the silver railing " ah, well, yes. About that, never can, sorry" he said almost excitedly. He rushed over to a contraption in the center of the room, filled with leavers, buttons and gauges, screens and alien letters as he began twisting and pulling knobs and leavers without a second to lose. The young woman, Clara, rushed over to his side and looked at the screen before them at eye-level.
*Sounds calm down and a sudden 'ooh' sounded, as if they had suddenly placed a great weight down on the ground*
"So, where are we?" the brunette asked, turning to him, intrigued and wide-eyed. The mystery man then turned round with a smirk to his lips, straightening his collar. Then quickly running over to the double doors at one side of the room he grabbed his Victorian style coat and threw his arms through, holding a knob on the door he kept the tension building. "Well, Clara" he seemed to like surprises. Clara raised a brow and repeated his name "Doctor?". He then grinned once more before opening as a bright light shun through and revealed beautiful green grass and nearby a fantastic city.
"It's a pocket in time, in space, a fantastic little... thing!"
"And, what else?"
"... I don't really know" he replied with a cheeky grin, bow tie neatly in place beneath his chin. "Let's have a look shall we?" he said as he opened the door, a glare of light as he passed through and stepped onto some lush green grass. Outside, The Doctor could be seen standing online in a great field of varying heights, near-to-none trees and behind him a blue box. It was 12 feet tall with windows on each side and read in bold lettering on the top "Police Box : Public Call". Clara then rushed out and swung on the edge of the door as she held on and leaned over the Doctor's shoulder, darting her eyes around she took in the scene, a great, almost futuristic looking city in the distance. "Well" she began."should we explore?" she asked. "What, and make a mess? Solve something unexpected?" he paused for a second.
"I think we should" The Doctor ended with a smile, clicking his fingers and causing the blue box's doors to close behind them.

Hello all!
This is an unofficial guild announcement just to let you all know where i am with the refurbishment. From the above, this much is done;
1) DONE
2) DONE
3) Planned, not implemented yet.
4) Planning Stages, will probably be added in a future, soon-to-come update.
5) Slowly getting through it, shall hopefully done during next week. Stages of this are as followes:
- Guildeam lore 75% finished
- New and different lore for Ravencrest Academy and the Occult, neither of the two will be connected as they are at the moment. Caster's will not be a part of Ravencrest Academy.
- High Elves, no longer exist.
- Add greater detail into the who, what, when, where and why of each available race to choose from.
- importantly, changes to be made to the Realms of Evil. Hell and Underworld are still as they are, but are slightly different purposes. Hell is as is already, except Lucifial took the Underworld many years ago as his own domain.
Thank you for your patience! Any questions/suggestions, please use the available OOC threads, or PM if you prefer emotion_yatta

PRE-UPDATE 2.0
Hello all Occulians!
I know you're probably fed up with all my announcements recently, i do apologise for that greatly. I do like to keep you all well informed so you know what's going on and don't find yourselves confused or at a stone wall with a change you weren't aware of. However, i am very pleased to announce the first half of the update is official finished. I do believe all lore has been re written and now works as a whole, with it, the addition of the tiki-Toki interactive online Timeline i've posted helps a lot to visualise it too.I'm going to dub the next update 2.0, i like to give my guild a 'game' feel to it, and it also helps me to distinguish between changes i've made if im referring back to it.
Like the first Land of Crows Expansion, when we revealed the Land of Crows and released the Daywalkers alongside the Conclave of Declasia, with The Lands of Occulas 2.0, another expansion shall be released. Journey, my fellow Occulains, into Otherearth. With yet a new unexplored area we'll meet two new races, the Therians, Orcs, Scarred and the Star Elves, which are now available. When 2.0 is released i the near future Otherearth will become available too! Which includes the mainlands for the Star Elves and Orcs mainly, and with Therian contact also. There'll be a struggle between them and the Scarred too.
Thanks for reading!

Hello Occulians.
I'm happy to announce the guild is now officially out of the 'updating' stage, all lore and present content should be updated and fit appropriately. For now, im calling the present state of the guild '1.5' as it is the new and improved version of the original. The new races have been added and some new locations exist, i may be adding a some minor zones soon when they come by. If anyone finds information that is confusing, contradictory or missing please let me know and i'll fix it right away. Same goes for missing locations or ones you would like me to add, please let me know and i'll get right to it.
I'll be holding off the '2.0' release, which includes the next expansion: Otherearth. This is the adopted new homeland of the Orcs, some Therians and Star Elves. Whilst you can create characters, you may mention or talk about Otherearth but i won't be accessible for some time whilst i'm developing it behind the scenes!
I'd also like to thank everyone for remaining active and being patient with me during this time. Without you guys the guild would be dead!

Darkness is Coming: Part 1
Zakernand was home to some of the greatest Soothsayers in all of Magic Earth, and above them was the one true Oracle that governed and protected Zakernand and the Spirit World. Inside the warm hall near the highest reaches of the Temple of Dreams the wide red doors pushed open as several women walked in, hands neatly tucked under each other. They wore dark velvet robes with long wide sleeves, different patterns and artwork covering them in light blues, oranges and golds.There was a crackling fire in the centre of the room were the floor stepped down to a stone surface, on the other side was the Oracle a tall and slender man with long black hair and a dark robe with reds and golds. His gloved arm had a Yin & Yang symbol on its palm, his eyebrows were dark and long, sticking out like a wise old owl. His sleeveless arm held a long staff, tipped with a carved dragon head that forever burned in it's mouth.
"Sisters" he began "I would be right in saying you know why you are here". One of them looked up and bright orange eyes stared over the fire to the Oracle, she replied "The visions are grim, Oracle" with a worried tone of regret. Another added "There is nothing but darkness, fear, and betrayal"
"Then the embers of life are true" he said "Something dark and sinister is approaching"
"We cannot tell when, Oracle"
"Or the source? For not the bones of the dead answer my calls"
"We must tread careful, Oracle. We know not enough to come to any kind of judgement"
"Then, my sisters, we need to peer deeper and listen to the spirits and all things around us. For i fear the balance of life and death is trembling before us" and then, Oracle and Soothsayers grouped to a circle around the flames as the fire grew brighter.
