Exetrius Posted May 20, 2016 Posted May 20, 2016 Sweet! I'm not dead. Been lurking for a bit, starting to fiddle with a few bits. Vlad's story is probably gonna continue with the start of the next challenge. Shadowmere is pretty much engaging the Spire where it can, with its allies helping out. As for Vlad's story, I've found that it's lost it's compelling nature for me, (I'm still fond of him) and he's more on the back burner. Not gone, and will still be referenced in my builds (might even crop up soonish as a supporting member). I'm working on a new character to focus on for the time being, something like a vampire knight/mercenary type, ousted from his ancestral lands by the Spire, and now leads a band of individual like-minded warriors. "Sir "name-to-be-decided" the Iron, Lord of Bearholt. Pictures coming soon........... I will be awaiting your return! As for my story, I have two small-medium sized builds planned, but I have very limited time to work them out in the coming two weeks. Quote

Arcturus24 Posted May 22, 2016 Posted May 22, 2016 (edited) Hector Mithrades breathed in deeply and savored the smell of sulfur in the air. 'Finally. It seemed like that maze was never going to end. I swear, that thing grows everytime you cross.' Gareth Larconne nodded. 'It is good to be back. We're one step closer to punishing that treacherous nephew of mine! I can't thank you enough for lending me the strength of the Ebon Band, my old friend.' 'Your gratitude is not necessary. We would be coming here to fight the Black Spire anyway, and if we can add the strength of the Wyvern Guard to that of the Band, all the better.' A small smile played around his lips as he watched the soldiers of the Band file past. They might have missed most of the fighting of the civil war, but they were here now and it would be known. He turned around toward the horses, gesturing to Gareth. It was time the Ebon Band joined the fray. Hector Intro by Arcturus24, on Flickr ----------------------------------------------------------- Hey everyone! I'll be joining Nocturnus, and I'm bringing the Ebon Band to strengthen the Nocturnian resistance! The Ebon Band is a warband under the control of Hector Mithrades (the guy with the hood in the picture, and my sigfig). During the Elemental Crisis, the Band was stranded far from Nocturnus, and has missed most of the civil war. Now they've returned, and with a mission! Gareth Larconne, the Band's second-in-command, has received word that his nephew, the young lord of Wyvern's Reach, has joined the Black Spire. He has convinced Hector to help him bring his nephew to justice, and now the Band is bearing down on Wyvern's Reach, the ancient mountain stronghold of the Larconne family (located in the Rakath Mountains). Although I've been a lego fan for most of my life, I've never been a very good builder. I'm trying to improve now, and the little scene in the story is my first build since deciding to do so. (constructive feedback is more than welcome ;) ) I've looked at a couple of open building tasks, but am somewhat confused by them. Age of Mitgardia seems only open to Mitgardians, and although the Historican settlement thread has 'Avalonian' in it, all guilds are represented. Then there is the Nocturnus warlord build, which seems to have been rather inactive of late. And there is the University of Petraea, which is open to everyone. Which of these are open to Nocturnians, and have I missed any? Anyway, I'm very stoked about joining GoH and Nocturnus, and hope to contribute in the future! Have a good day/evening/whatever-part-of-the-day, my fellow Nocturnians! Arcturus24 Edited May 22, 2016 by Arcturus24 Quote
Exetrius Posted May 22, 2016 Posted May 22, 2016 A warm welcome, Arcturus, to the Guild of Nocturnus! Great to have you here! I am impressed with how familiar you seem to be with the history of the Guilds, also with your quality of writing. University of Petraea is open to everyone and also relatively active, feel free to participate. Currently, no challenges or contests are happening in Nocturnus, but that can be seen as a time for freebuilds and development of your character(s). However, a civil war within our Guild seems to be drawing closer... Anyway, I'm looking forward to your contributions! Quote
MKJoshA Posted May 24, 2016 Posted May 24, 2016 Since Brickworld has been mentioned here a few times, does anyone know if a thread has been started like we've had the past couple years for Eurobrick members who will be there? Quote
Tezclatipoca Posted May 24, 2016 Posted May 24, 2016 Welcome Arcturus ! Nice to see some reiforcement for the Nocty Resistance. Be sure (even if I am just a tree hugger ) that Falahuas is ready to help the resistance against the Black Spire ! To help you : I can say that Avalonian settlements mentioned as Task 4 in Avalonia thread is open to all guild members, so you can participate on this one, Age Of Midgardia is only for Midgardians, and I think I am not mistaking by saying you can build for Petraea University ranks even if you're nocturnian. So welcome ! and nice vignette ! Quote
Arcturus24 Posted May 25, 2016 Posted May 25, 2016 Thanks for the welcome everyone! I'm currently working on the Band itself, I'll put that up as soon as it's done. That will probably also become a story like those of Faladrin and Exetrius, and later I'll also probably enter Wyvern's Reach into the settlement task. And now, back to building ;) Quote
Lord Vladivus Posted May 30, 2016 Posted May 30, 2016 Welcome! The Warlord build as a competition is closed, but it's still a fun thing to build for! Quote
Blufiji Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 I'm a bit late but welcome Arcturus!! As others have said, your timing couldnt be better. Quote
-Sunder- Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 (edited) Remington Rot- the greatest bard who ever died- pledges his song and his support to the troops of Nocturnus in their plight against the Spire! --- Hey everyone! Sorry for the terrible picture quality. As you can see, I'm joining Nocturnus. Unlike Arcuturus with his Ebon Band, I don't really have much to offer to Nocturnus, as Rot isn't much of a fighter, and he's pretty lousy moral support too. Oh well, at least he can play the lute pretty well... Anyway, you should expect some mocs from me pretty soon! Edited June 9, 2016 by -Sunder- Quote
Umbra-Manis Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 Cool story Sunder! Welcome to the best Guild! Quote

Arcturus24 Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 Welcome Sunder! May Remington write many songs on the victory and glory of the Nocturnus Resistance! Quote

Would you mind giving us a chant, to liven up the Guild Hall? Ooc: A good sigfig and a nice background build as far as I can tell, Sunder! Looking forward to your builds. (That is a hilarious profile picture, btw! ) So, something weird happened to me today on Flickr. I posted a little Sabre Tigre figbarf/preview, around midnight. I woke up this morning, just the usual thing: 30 views or something, a couple of faves. Then, around noon, I got an invitation to post that picture in the group "in explore", a little later for another one "LIFE - Quality Pictures", both of which I accepted even though the pic does not at all fit in either one of those groups. In the meantime, it has 3,122 views and 52 faves! In addition most favers appear to be 'camera geeks' rather than AFOLs. I don't know, it struck me as weird! Anyway a new Exetrius Saga episode is underway, hope to post it somewhere next week. Quote

Tezclatipoca Posted June 11, 2016 Posted June 11, 2016 Welcome to the Guilds Sunder ! Nice to see a new opponent to the Spire. Quote
ixypixy Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 Welcome to the Guilds, Sunder Remington looks like an interesting character. Quote
Exetrius Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 June 7th, about a small week ago, marked my first year in Guilds of Historica! (my joining post here) Reason enough for me to look back for a moment and throw a collage together, containing almost every GoH moc I did: One year in the Guilds More will certainly follow! Quote
soccerkid6 Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 Congrats on one year, Exetrius! The Ambush Ritual and landscape, bottom second from left, are my favorites of your GoH builds so far Quote
TitusV Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 Congratulations Exetrius! I second SK with the Ambush Ritual being my favoured! Quote
