| Welcome to Imythess, the border between dreams and reality. We hope you enjoy your visit. Imythess is a creative writing board where you narrate the story of a character in the medieval land of Imythess, on the planet Chaon. Each topic is an opportunity for your character to interact with the world and its peoples by cooperatively writing pieces of a story with other members, one post at a time. We call this role-playing, because you assume the identity of your character as if it were your own. In order to play, you must register an account for each character you would like to write about, and begin their tale by filling out their basic profile information: Race (human, elf, demon, etc.), class (warrior, mage, etc.), physical appearance, and any other personal details you would like to describe. You are also encouraged to come up with some background history information for what your character's life has been like up to the point at which their story in Imythess begins. There is no approval process or application required to join, so long as you follow the rules then you are free to write whatever character details you choose. Registration is simple, fast, and completely free. Create a character now! If you're already a member, you can log into your account below: |

They were all scum. Drows, other vampires and all the other outcasts who preferred the dark due to their shunning from regular society and forced to live in the god-forbidden hell hole which was simply known as Balefire... Nero did not like Balefire. He didn’t like its lanterns, its large number of Drow inhabitants; he didn’t really like anything about the city other than if he played his cards right he could easily get into a fight with someone if he wanted to. Fights were always a good option... The vampire stood idly in the middle of the lantern lit street mentally burning the entire area around him to the ground. He needed to find something to do. |

Ayperos sat crotched on the roof of some building. Knees bent out and hands on the edge in front of him. He was boredly, while interested at the few creatures around here, scanning the area. Seeing one man stop in the middle of the road, or has been there for a while without being noticed he shouted out to him. "Whatcha stopping for? You'll probably just get in something's bigger's way standing there." Ayperos only expected to be answered back harshly, as was the way of Balefire. |

Nero didn’t bother to turn to the voice which called out to him, but leaned his head to the side a bit which showed that he was aware of whoever it may have been voice’s presence. Why was he being spoken to? Did he stand out so much? It sounded like a child which had called him. Nero disliked children... To be frank, there weren’t many things which Nero himself did like. Nero did scoff at the mention of something bigger, but it was followed by a small, malevolent smirk. “Well, then,” Nero said brightly. “The bigger it is, the harder it’ll fall, eh?” The vampire liked that saying... |

Ayperos shook his head at the kind of answer. "So you're looking to get in a fight? Sounds so stubborn, well at least that'll get you far if you're after something." The Demon looked down at his gloved hands. Well, he only wondered when the bond on this form was going to be thrown away, he wanted to be himself again. |

After something? Nero wasn't after anything in particular; he just wanted to find something that could serve to quell his never-ending boredom. With a small sigh, Nero finally turned himself around so that he was facing this person who he had apparently got himself into a conversation with. Hands in pockets and a with a cigarette hanging loosely in his mouth, the vampire motioned briefly at the boy. "I wouldn't say stubborn... More like stupid." |

"Ah, so you have no reason to even be here, just nothing better to do at all? Quiet irritating on the mind, is it not?" Ayperos threw out, wondering how he ever solved his own boredom in the first place. He remembered before hiding himself away in this town where he wouldn't be bothered by Holy beings and Humans. He wasn't bored then, maybe just angry and enjoying destroying them. Ah, at least this place was more calm on his nerves, even if he wasn't born to be calm but a raging killer on Humanity. |

Of course there was no reason for Nero's visit to Balefire... He had just decided to visit the place on a whim after pondering over what to do for a day; he was nearest to the City of Lanterns, so it had seemed like a relatively obvious choice at first, but now the vampire was starting to question his own actions. Clucking his tongue in slight annoyance at the boy, Nero sighed heavily and proceeded to let out a small yawn. "I do not get irritated," Nero lied. "I simply get even." With that statement which made loose sense, Nero started to slowly walk down the street again... |

Ayperos flexed his fingers tightly around the edge of the roof he was on. Almost ripping his gloves off he stopped. He liked them on for some reason, why did he hid the few bits of Demon left of his body? "So you get even with yourself for your own stupidity? I'd like to see that, does it involve yelling in a mirror or whipping thy self? Eh?" He joked and yelled after the man when he was walking away. |

Nero was starting to get irritated by this boy. Even though he had just told a barefaced lie to the boy, he could easily turn around, show his building anger and maim the boy quickly, right? No. That'd take effort. Though Nero did have to admit the fact he called after him meant he at least was either slightly brave or slightly stupid. The vampire wasn't the most frail looking of characters... Maybe because he was up on a roof? Sighing, the vampre turned around again and looked up at the boy. He was trying to hide his irritation, which wasn't overly difficult considering it wasn't that much... But he still wanted to kill this boy. "Alas," Nero said smoothly. "I have done neither of those things to myself... Nor do I intend to. One does not get even with themself; they take it out on someone else." |

When turned too, Ayperos could only fail to not smile with a full mouth of sharp fangs bare. "Like who if you don't mind I ask? The innocent one, the heretic, the damned? Or maybe just the unfortunate one?" He asked this time with obvious he was just pressing and pressing for more information, the reason? Only he really knew. |

Nero noticed the boy's grin as he turned to him, his mouth filled with many sharp fangs. More than he had... It was, to be frank hideous... The fact the vampires had the enlarged fanged canines, was to Nero a beautiful sight as it was subtle yet rather intimidating if faced with it. But the fact this boy had many fangs meant that he was a different race to the vampire. He no longer wanted to kill him; he interested him. Returning a more mocking smile, which in turn bared his gleaming fangs. "I guess the last of those options," he stated. "Whoever just happens to get in my way. Whether that be women, children or whatever... Do you not abide by similar methods, child?" |

Ayperos only ignored the comment about being a child. He was young for being a Demon, especially an ArchDemon, and looked like a Human child, no matter how much he hated that idea. "Well I actually just plan an appointment to see my therapist and play with my stress ball in the meantime." He joked and wondered how else he could annoy the Man, that would have to wait. "As for killing the unfortunate, I have better reasons to do that than my own simple irritation, though that is a big fueler of my deeds." |

Nero's smile widened at the boy's response. He was obviously the joker type, and was trying to gain superiority of sorts over Nero by attempting to make him look silly. He was beginning to actually like this boy now that he had engaged in a real conversation with him... Maybe he should speak to people more? Nah. People like the boy would initiate the conversation itself, as he had done. "And I assume your parents take in you into see your therapists, holding your hand?" More digs at the fact he was a child... Maybe it was a tad underhanded, but hey. "So, you act on impulse? I've always preferred a plan of action, even when taking my rage out on someone else... Though I dislike screaming. So I usually cut out the tongue then stuff a rag down their throats. Effective method." He tapped his nose and winked. |

"Of course, though the first time the therapist had a heart attack from the sight of my Father. We had to find a new one, luckily our coverage was good there too." Ayperos said and resisted the urge to rip one of his arms off for the obvious insults. It wasn't that being a child was bad, he could take that, being it implied that he was a Human child was. Ah how that mad him fume inside, at best he could ignore it. "Plans can be made midway I suppose, just as long as the Xenocide continues and rages on, I'm happy and full of joy." |

Well, it appeared that neither of them were going to really fall to one or the other's taunts, and they were at a perpetual stalemate. Nero pondered over whether he should continue the slight insults or just decapitate the boy... It was a tough choice, but in the end, he agreed to himself to continue the banter. "Oh, why is your father ugly?" Nero said childishly. He knew one of the boy's parents were obviously something other than human, he just hadn't discerned what it could be. "I don't believe a kid like you could perform such an act of mass killing," the vampire crooned. "After all, I thought children were meant to be the most human of us all." |
