"Class 2i"

Wednesday, 2008 January 2Thursday, 2018 July 19 James O'Neill4222Leave a Comment on "Class 2i"

So we stand there in front of my new flat in Belize. I have just upgraded my Domicile Class Rating (DCr) to 5 and we moved to here from Austria. I speak English, Austrian, and, strangely enough, Latin. In our times we are required to speak at least 3 languages and it is good for […]

Monday, 2007 December 31Friday, 2016 August 26 James O'Neill2526Leave a Comment on "Orkjager: The Dwarves of the Midden Alps"

I wrote this after being inspired by one of the other characters in our party. I stopped writing this because the gamed ended. There is a lot of DnD’isms that I am not going to explain, but I may someday try to explain or add definitions to it. The Story Fluffy white clouds are plentifully […]

I wrote a small narrative to the first two rounds of combat/ I was inspired so I started to write. There is a lot of DnD’isms that I am not going to explain, but I may someday try to explain or add definitions to it. The Story After a long hard day with the trudging […]

Monday, 2007 December 31Friday, 2016 August 26 James O'Neill2235Leave a Comment on "Orkjager: A New Beginning"

I wrote this as an introduction to a Play By Post game that I was in and it quickly died during March of 2005. I was inspired so I started to write, and this is much better than the Ceramic DM entries that posted earlier. At least I hope it is. There is a lot […]

I wrote this for for the first round of what is called a Ceramic DM’ contest via ENWorld from August of 2007. A Ceramic DM contest is where the judges give all contestants the same 3 or so pictures with which they have to write a story around, and then are judged on writing content […]

"Spawn"

Saturday, 2007 December 29Monday, 2023 April 24 James O'Neill2825Leave a Comment on "Spawn"

Introduction I am not going to go through and explain all of the phrases that non-players (and non Forgotten Realms players) may not understand right now. Maybe later I will come back and add in definitions. This is the beginning of a large base of writing I would like to do for Arion (Sir’ra would […]

"Of Books and Blades"

Saturday, 2007 December 29 James O'Neill24752 Comments on "Of Books and Blades"

This little short story is written as part of a background for a character I played while I was in the Navy (~1995), named Jaerle Blackmaine. He was a Human Male Paladin dedicated to the St. George in the DM’s game world where Mages very commonly summon demons and other vile creatures to do their […]

She is also referred to as the ‘The Lady in Gray’ or ‘The Big “E”‘. What follows are what I had written when I had Arion’s Home up way back in the day. Shipyard/Reactor Training I reported on board the U.S.S Enterprise on August 26, 1994 after a month of vacation. The Enterprise was moored […]

Ebon Solace

Writhing world and the darkness slakesCompanions of pain and doubt constantStabbing pains of twisted loves Resolve that is firm, yet doubting my rhymeTears fall amidst the fear and lossEphemeral life and relative reality Restless nights full of thoughts and premonitionsA life in tatters and yet is wholeThe questions pose themselves unavailed in the night The […]

Losing You

Friday, 2007 December 28 James O'Neill2418Leave a Comment on Losing You

Having lost your heart and kind eyes has ripped the joy from my life. I miss your thoughts, your looks, and your voice. I miss the illusion of friendship that your presence bore. Friends, I thought we were until your eyes cast me aside. Cast my heart from the warmth of your smile like it […]

The One That Got Away

My heart swells with the happiness and joy of having known you Longing now fills the void in my heart where you stood for a ten-day You are 5000 miles away and I feel very inch Wanting you to want to be with me is the bitter-sweet thought that rocks me to sleep I know […]

So far away An ocean apart I have missed you so much I can feel it in my heart Your soft touch and smile so bright Leave me happy memories that keep me warm at night You have made me feel so special, so happy, and right I wish you were here right now so […]

A Christmas Gift

Friday, 2007 December 28 James O'Neill2255Leave a Comment on A Christmas Gift

This was written in 4 parts. Each two lines was written to a specific person and written in a card for them, and each was meant to fit into this specific little Christmas Poem. I was in the military and at sea when I wrote this, perhaps during my cruise to the Mediterranean in 1995, […]
