On Uruz

Uruz' earliest incarnation can be traced back four or five years. At the time, I had an idea of a Half-Elf swordsman (named Lance, had to look through a sketchbook to find it) from a world where elves and humans did not coexist. The idea was that he was disliked by the people of the town where he lived (it would be a city-state surrounded mostly by wilderness) and eventually he would be framed for the murder a townsperson and banished to the northern mountains.
There he would meet a fox-child (some sort of human-fox hybrid imp) and get his help to find the person responsible for the murder of the townsperson. First they would go east, seeking help from the Elf Kingdom, but would be denied it. However, the elven princess (Marta) would sneak out to help them. Somewhere they were going to meet up with a thief.
The main villain would be an evil wizard who lived outside of the town and framed Lance for the murder. This was some attempt to keep him from the city so that he would not achieve his potential as Lance was the only person capable of stopping him. The climax of the story was to be when the wizard attacked the city using a gigantic stone golem.

I'll post his second incarnation either tomorrow or monday.

I've started writing 'Prometheus', a noveletta about a boy who washes up on an island where the natives speak english and believe that the island is the only land in the world.

Soul Calibur II

I've been playing lots of it lately. And Katamari Damacy.
I've noticed a strange smell in my room (first began to notice it when I first got the PS2) and It's become permanently linked with Kingdom Hearts and Cave Story in my head. It smells a bit like carpet, but also a bit like food.
I'm not really sure.

Next week is adventure week! Hoorah! Also I've been hand-writing an epic poem in ABccB format

One of those days...

I looked at my watch in the shower and it seemed really small.

You know those times when you just can't seem to get the hang of drinking water? Today was one of those days.

Epic Poem

My new idea for an epic poem is a story about a boy who journeys into hell to save the girl he loves who has been taken by the devil (likely some sort of bet with God). My biggest problem is finding a fitting rhyme-scheme. I don't want to go with ABCB because I'm using that in Aurelia.

Cave Story and EVA

I beat Cave Story! I played to the end once, but I had the machine gun and didn't say Curly. I was stuck there, so last night I started over and by today just after dinner I finished off Undead Core and am now stuck in the Sacred Grounds zone. It's really, crazy hard.

Also been watching Neon Genesis Evangelion and it is horrifically amazing. I find it very interesting to see the retro-futuristic aspects (2015 and they use Video Cameras that save on Floppies) Also, it's surprisingly gory. The Robots are organisms themselves, with what seems to be blood. Also, Shinji's reactions to fighting early on in the series are very realistic. It's likely the most accurate portrayal of what it would be like if we had giant Robots.

I've got an idea for another Epic Poem, but I'll talk about that later.
