Since we're down to the usual suspects over on the big story thread that is The South Is Rising..., I thought I'd resurrect the Fenwiki DeStub Project so everybody else has something to do. (For those of you new to this game, I present one of the "stubs" in the FenWiki and ask everybody else to provide in this thread some content for the article. Content should be in the spirit of Fenspace, and should not conflict with what's already been established in the article. Assume the FenWiki is discussing Fenspace as of early 2014 - just after the Boskone War.) Here's an easy one...

A good deal for a good cause.

the same sovereign, servants of the same law."

The latest installment of Drogan's "Messages Drifting On the Static" brought back to mind a question I started thinking about when I first heard the plans for I19 and beyond.
As I understand it, the three little islands of Praetoria are pretty much it for the civilized world, right?  Maybe a couple hundred thousand people at the most, and the rest of the world is Devouring Earth and a few survivors here and there?  Is that correct?
If it is, than I have serious concerns about Cole's sanity.  He's planning to mount an invasion of a world with a population of eight thousand million plus, with the same proportion of supers among them as seen in his own world with the entire planet's resources available to them, using what amounts to the inhabitants of a refugee camp and what they can get their hands on?  How does he expect to win?  How does he expect to survive the first counterattack?

This is actually part of a bigger promotional thing, where NCSoft asked several authors to create arcs in the Mission Editor, but this is the first one that I know specifically about: 

''Mystery On The Boardwalk'' (arc id: 369275).  And for those who miss her series, the contact is Diana Tregarde!

Anyone up for a team run through it?

~*~

Breathing in and out with tide
Leaving the mantra of a world outside
Faces bathed by moonbeams
All the sleepers send you their dreams

Rising from a wave of helping hands
A woman holds a statue till he becomes a man
Captured in her eyes he's finally complete
All the sleepers send you their dreams

Night terrors make you scream
Dogs turned reptiles halloween
Lizards and birds, claws in your feet
Can't shake off all the demons you meet

Surveillance camera in the sky
Big big brother telling you why
Too many saviours on my cross
Might as well worship the Wizards of Oz

Turning your dream around
Taking the reins again
Running through the flames
Sun shining out of the rain

Taking a leap of faith
Jumping into space
Find an unknown place
The moon's other face

All the sleepers send you their dreams
All the sleepers send you their dreams

's the best version I was able to find on YouTube. It's live, and unfortunately missing the really pretty classical guitar intro from the studio version.

No word on whether the girls in question are from Qingha province, nor what happens if you splash one with cold water.

Just something I put together after a brief stopover in scenic Dark Astoria


Naturally set to "Hotel California"

Quote:On a dark foggy highway, cold wind in your hair.
Hazy feel of eerieness, drifting through the air.
Up ahead in the distance, you see a shimmering light.
Your head grows heavy and your sight grows dim,
You need to stop for the night...

There she stands in the doorway, beneath the ringing bell.
You're thinking to yourself, is this heaven or is this hell?
As she lights up a candle, she shows you the way.
There's voices all around you, you think you hear them say...

Welcome to shadowy Dark Astoria...
It's such a lovely place. (Such a lovely place)
You've such a lovely face. (Such a lovely face)
Plenty of room in shadowy Dark Astoria...
Any time of year...
We will take you here...

Things start getting twisted...
As you follow her round the bend...
She's got lots of pretty, pretty boys...
That she calls friends...
Watch them dance through the courtyard...
Deep in the dark and dread...
Some dance with the living...
Some dance with the dead...

As you call out towards them...
Asking for the time...
You hear them say that they've been here since 1969...
And still those voices are echoing
From not so far away...
All around you in the depths of the night...
They continue to say...

Welcome to shadowy Dark Astoria...
It's such a lovely place. (Such a lovely place)
You've such a lovely face. (Such a lovely face)
Plenty of room in shadowy Dark Astoria...
Please, don't you fear...
Please, won't you stay here?

No reflections in the mirrors...
No souls in their eyes...
As she says "We are all just prisoners here..."
"Of His dark device..."
And in the Master's chambers...
Things gather for the feast.
They stab it with their steely knives
As they sacrifice it to the Beast...

Last thing you remember...
You were running for the door.
But you can't find the passage back
To the place you were before.

"Relax," says the Tall Man...
"We're always prepared to receive."
"You can check out any time you want, but you can never leave..."

Tis Fundraising Season:
The Academy is trying to get itself hooked into the teleportation grid.  This means we need to raise funds for the equipment, the space to put the pads, and the addtional power generation and control pllus the base space for THEM as well.
Accordingly, All persons with Academy toons are basicly Begged to dust em off and play em as much as possible to help us earn the needed prestige to pull this upgrade off.

Hear that thunder rolling till it seems to split the sky?
That's every ship in Grayson's Navy taking up the cry-
NO QUARTER!!!

In case you haven't been to the Virtue wiki in a while, it's just moved to a new server and a new URL -- http://www.virtueverse.net
Although the content has (mostly) been brought over, you'll need to recreate user accounts, watch lists, and stuff like that.  Also, the transfer of content hasn't been 100% perfect -- I found several of my toons missing and had to recreate them.  Fortunately the old wiki is still in place over at http://www.virtueverse.com and you can still log in there to grab page sources.  Note that the old wiki will only be left up for a month for this purpose -- say the middle of November -- after which the URL will be redirected to the new wiki.  So I encourage anyone who had stuff on the Virtue wiki to get over there now and make sure everything came over.
Also, please note that they put size limits on images, and any images over those limits -- including apparently some of the shots of the Legendary base -- were not brought over to the new wiki.  This probably makes it a good time to bring the base section of the Legendary page up to date, as it's still featuring the much smaller base we had a couple years ago.
Update:  While reconstructing my watch list, I discovered that the following pages did not carry over; their original creators may want to correct this:
?Crossroads - The Legendary - Beta Team

?ElectroEagle

Fae Wree Tail
TechHead
Wide Receiver
