Well, as I was making the banner for our new skin [hope ya'll like it by the way...I like the banner but the colors in the skin don't really feel exactly right] I came up with The Ressurection solely because I felt I needed a name for the new skin. This got me thinking about plots to go along with it and I have one. So here we go.....
Everywhere around there was whispering, I could feel the excitement of news in the air. The entire castle was abuzz with this silent frenzy. They'd silence as I'd walk by, just watching me with a strange look, all I could offer was an off smile, confused by what was going on. Did I have a visitor? The only thing I could think of was one of the Norms had come down to speak, but that was unlikely so I headed for the meeting hall where the King's council had gathered upon my request. Not the whole council, simply the Magyk part--a regular meeting that was called every month, surely that wasn't what this excitement was about.
I stepped into the room and immediately my head was spinning as I had come in on an argumentative debate. It only took them all a moment to notice I was there and the room feel into a hush. I gave them the same smile I'd given the others earlier because they too were looking at me in that strange way. I looked to History for an explanation but her thoughts were silent. The room filled with quiet whispering then finally I heard someone clear their throat. It was one of the Shifters who had seemingly conjured up the courage to explain what was going on.
"Jack, we think your father is still alive..."
The entire room went silent once more, waiting for my reaction. I just stood there, my eyes wide and mouth hanging open a bit.
My father was alive??
--------------------------------------------------------------
It has been 886 years since Alcott was seen on the Isle of Fable. Reports said he had died along with his dragon while he was coming back from one of his trips back to England. Now there are rumors circulating around the return of the island's founder. Excitement is buzzing on the whole Island, even to the North. Rumors have indeed spread into the Norm camp, only the Leader knows what the rumors are about--the other Norms do not know the real history of the Island, they are not taught about the Island. Even he is excited about the possible return of this man of legend.
People assume that the current Keeper, Alcott's son Jack, is ecstatic about the return of his father, but those close to him can sense this isn't true. Only his brother knows that Jack is worried. Alcott would bring news that the Island may not be ready for, he could also have changed drastically from the man he was. And what if he really wasn't there, then the people of Fable will be disappointed and that's just a crushing blow for Jack. Sure he loves his father dearly, but it's been 886 years and things have changed.

We will need someone to play Alcott, of course. This is a HUGE role, and I need to be able to trust that you will be active, around nearly every day even if there is nothing to post. I have grown attached to this character, the spirit of him and I'm not going to be easy about the audition. There will be information about auditioning for Alcott put up very soon.
Also, we desperately need more Norms, in particular, I'd like to get the Leader position filled because he will most likely be playing a big role in this as well for info on that just read the blurb above the boards in the Creation board. I hope you guys will enjoy this plot, I think it stirs things up enormously, Alcott could pop in on any thread--though there will be the condition that he has changed quite a bit in appearance and the fact that only Jack, History, and a few other creatures actually know what he looks like, so he wouldn't be recognized, not even by them for a while.
Also, just in general, we need more members. That equals more characters, and more activity. We need to fill these high ranks and get some roleplaying done here. I'm determined to keep this site afloat. If that means holding activity checks twice a month I absolutely will, I want you guys to have fun here, but I also want you active, other people are sitting around and twiddling their thumbs waiting for posts, I know, I've been there and it's frustrating.
So, watch for a thread about Alcott auditions, ADVERTISE BUNCHES, get your butts in gear and start posting more xD, and stick around, you never know what could happen next.
