    well all i have to say is that its the greatest forum that i have been to in all my life, the story is great and the info is really useful but the only sad part is that over 9 races there is only 8 playable ones... but if i cant be it its ok and ive made up my mind about what character i should build. oh and i just noticed here the Drafts saves as we write, awesome :P well cant wait to be accepted so im waiting :)
    see ya and good night

    The autosaving drafts are one of my favourite things. :) As for that ninth race, it'll be playable soon enough. I'm still working on a plot that will integrate and introduce them to the entire setting as playable races. (Dun dun dun!)

    @lotte Hey! Welcome back. :) Gosh, ah... quite a lot has changed in the past four years or so. I'm not quite sure where to begin. If there's anything that is confusing though, please let me know. I've been trying to rework all of the guides in recent years so that they're a lot friendlier (and they still need some work).

    People still call it RaL. :) There really hasn't been much advertising as of late. I think we've all kind of withdrawn a bit and focused more on world building, which is a little bit of a shame. It'd be nice to breathe a little more new life back into the place. ^_^

    Aloha everyone :D

    Been meaning to sign up and get my feet wet here for quite some time. Have participated in play by posting role play before and enjoy the format. Right now I'm reading as much as I can here at the wiki and will get started in creating a character soon.

    @Phuturism Hello and welcome! You're just in time for our NaNoWriMo event. :D

    Try not to overload too much on the information here. It can be a little difficult to try to take it all in. What kind of play by post games have you played before?

    • What should we call you? Aliases are fine! Chromi.
    • When and where did you first start roleplaying? Is Shadowlack your first online play-by-post game? Myspace.
    • Tell us what part(s) of Shadowlack interest you, and where you would like to get involved. The beautiful layout and community. I just want to rp.
    • How did you find out about Shadowlack? I was just surfing RPG sites.
    • Do you have any pets? Yes! Dozens.

    Welcome @Chromivale! Please tell me about your pets! I love it when people share details about their zoos.

    Lies of Locke Lamora, wise mans fear, the black company, skin hunger, and the black prism to name a few books. As for movies I mainly watch anime but the dark crystal and pans labyrinth both come to mind.

    Hey Monkshood, welcome to Shadowlack =D I just started reading the Lie of Locke Lamora series this year, I'm looking forward to getting my hands on the rest. I also once made one of the food dishes mentioned in the book because it sounded so delicious xD

    Thank you for the welcome. It took me forever to catch up on the series myself since my local bookstore doesn't stock it unfortunately. That's really cool though. What was the dish?
