Ah, assorted associates of this grand location. I bid you a collective greeting, and tell you now of my intention to remain here for a considerable duration.

For you see, it was no simple matter for me to arrive here. There were... difficulties in my travel to your world. Difficulties I would prefer not to elaborate on.

I know not who any of you are, and neither do you know me. But perhaps this will all change soon. Yes. Perhaps it will all change very soon indeed.

Greetings Nomus! I'm Sfot, Moderator of the Norn Gardens and local Annoyance. If you get picky I'm Mistress of Over There.

Do please remove any and all sanity and depoisit in the skull shaped baskets, else it'll leak out your ears and stain everything it touches. It's sticky and it's purple; trust me on this.

Welcome to the Dojo hun! I would pass onto you the canned greeting, but I unfortunately don't have. Nonetheless, enjoy your stay here, someone will come with that canned greeting soon, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask me. Wink

Greetings, most literate one, I am known as the Mad Miss Maraha, the strangely akward one with severe moodswings and a vast knowledge of prescription drugs. Speaking of canned greeting whichweweren'tbutwearenow, here's one for you, compliments of the self-proclaimed unofficial Canned Greeting Miss. Wink

Canned Greeting wrote:
Welcome to the Blackstar Role Playing Dojo!

If you are new to the world of Role Playing, you may wish to start at the Training Dojo, where any of our staff will be more than happy to help you learn the game.

The most important part of role playing is the development of a character. This is required before you participate in most role plays. You can look at examples of characters in our Hall of Records. Once you have a character, you can post your profile in there.

Once you have a character and some training, you may wish to join a role play. The most active of Role Playing boards is The Wilds. There are many other role playing boards for RPs of a specific location or type. Explore as much as you can.

A new feature to the Dojo is the addition of items. Most items have a way to be synthed, or combined, with other items to form usable items. Usable items will be listed in a pull down menu when you create a post, enabling you to specify which item you are using, who is using it, and what their target is. Usable items have a hit % and a break %. If you're lucky, your item use will suceed, if not, it will miss. Either way, there is a chance that your item will break and become unusable. See our wiki article on Items for more information.

Several of the boards are non-RPing boards. Boards like Announcements, General Chat, and Bugs and Features are examples of non-RPing boards. Be sure to explore these too.

We only have a few rules:
1. Respect other people, and treat them as you wish to be treated.
2. Do not argue with the Admins and Mods. They have plenty of work already. If you really have a beef with something, discussing it in a logical and calm manner will get you miles farther than whining.
3. No Powerplaying. This means forcing actions on other people. For more information on Powerplaying and how to avoid it, please refer to "Powerplaying" on our wiki.

If you have any questions during your stay here, you may ask one of the administrators or moderators. You can recognize us by our belts: Gold Dragons on the belt of an Admin, Silver on the belt of a mod.

Should you be unable to contact an Admin or you want your answer quickly, you can always refer to the Blackstar Wiki.

Please also be advised that Blackstar is considered highly addictive and may result in symptoms of insomnia, crankiness, longing for insanity, and general RP itch if you discontinue use.


... Am I a Greeting Miss in a can, or am I a miss who gives canned greetings? Discuss.

Well... seeing as you are not in a can right now, and seeing that you *Just* gave a canned greeting, I'd say the latter.


But, I've got to get away before either the cookie explodes, or it turns out to e normal and addman tries to kill me. Sad

I bid welcome to you, thee named Nomus.

Normally I would pick apart HLS's reply and decode it for you, but there are 2 reasons why I will not.

1. I have a feeling you would understand it better then I

2. I have no idea what he said after "I bid welcome to you, thee named Nomus." The rest is... not enough common american tongue then I can understand.

Perhaps because you've become too common, yourself. For it is common for the commoners to revile uncommon words, but a commonality among the wise crafts commons like no other, however uncommon such a thing may be.

Exactly what it says.

It's normal for people to dislike words they don't know.

Now you're just showing off. I grasp the meaning of it, but I can't put it into words other then the ones you put there.

Showing off or telling truth?

    Minerva's aide flies quite aloof!

You are both showing off and telling the truth.

And do you call yourself wisdom's aid, or what?

Form follows function.

Ideas have no true form - I simply take on an Owl because it's convenient. And what better are Owls associated with but Athene herself?


    Nomus knows names aplenty, secrets full and fat

    He's seen the trickers afore & again, and thus I doff my hat.
