Gaea: Life in Hell - What happens when 'Hell on Earth' isn't just a phrase.
These play by e-mail campaigns are currently up on this site for your preusal. At the moment, most of these campaigns are completed. The chapters put up here are significantly behind the actual storyline.
| A huge monster never before seen is lurking in the mountans to the east of the Green forest. And it likes the taste of flesh! | |
| Telor is over run with magi gathering for the Magical Minds Conference. Seeking refuge from the masses a few poor souls hide in an out of the way tavern. Unbeknownst to them they are about to be caught up in the middle of a blood feud and be called upon to battle unnatural creatues. | |
| A priestess on a quest for the ultimate weapon of peace. | |
| An army appears in town, they say they come to release the people from it's bondage from the Church. Problem is they don't want to be saved. | |
| The storm and the fury, one temple, one army, one magi, one god. Who will win? Not important! Who is going to survive...not who you think! | |
| Something is devouring all the life near an elvin commume. Can one lone ranger make a difference? | |
| The Orcs are about to commit another atrocity! Can the Allies special taskforce stop them before it's too late? Against incredible odds these medival commandos are going to give it a try. | |
| A traitor, A skulker, A diviner, A screwup, A neophyte, and A lunatic. Six men with one mission: Stop this war. Problem is they haven't a clue where to start. Follow the mis-adventure that leads them into friendly/enemy territory to discover something more sinister that they could have ever imagined. (Note: This is a currently running PBEM) | |
| Two Creatures, One mission. Find the one. No one said they couldn't have a little fun until then. | |
| Originally supposed to be the Magic Corner it blossomed into a heila monster covering many different aspects of Atrias, if you have a question burning the back of your head about Atrias, check here for the answer. | |
| Named after that crazy one-eyed dragon, it's a message board / ballot box for all players. The message board can be used for players, lurkers, etc. in any fashion possible. I expect that some players will use it to coordinate things like battle strategies and other ideas before submitting thier official post. And if you have a question for either your fellow players or the DM then this is the place to do it. | |
| An offshoot of the Knoweldge Corner, Timelines is an experimental page where the history behind some of the mysterious relationships around the valley. (i.e. Why do the orcs hate Charon so much?) | |
| A long way from home a group of youngsters try to prove themselves in this coming of age ritual. The first Play By Post Game in Atrias is open to all comers. Make sure the read the rules first before staring. (Note: This is a currently running PBP this is open to new players.) | |
| Once upon a time an ex-adventurer decides it's time to drag out that map to riches he's been sitting on and go get his retirement money. Along the way the map changed hands and now and inspiring young adventurer is out to make the score of a lifetime. |
|
Entirely New look
|
Something more in keeping with the Visions theme. I'm going to redesign the new site so the new layout will either be a nightmarish beast from hell or much easier to find the specific information people are looking for instead of slogging through seven or eight screen only to be sent to a second page. Hopefully I will upgrade the artwork and maybe add some animation. I'm a pathetic artist (i'm getting better), but I still want something better that what I have now. |
|
WAR: Unnatural Horde
|
Rumors of an evil in the southern portion of the valley have arisen. An evil once thought destroyed. The second of two task forces is sent to investigate. Will the this task force succeed and what happend to the last one? |
|
WAR: Navarok's Empire
|
Navarok has set his sights on a nice piece of prime real estate to add to his empire. Problem is its already occupied |
|
WAR: The Coming of the Wolfpack
|
Escort a bunch of neophyte priest wannabees to the front lines with no chance of being attacked by the enemy to help with the wounded. Sound easy? It is. Or...is it? |
|
WAR: The Shadow Walker: In Enemy Lands
|
The little apprentice must carry out one simple mission for his master: Invite one old companion over for dinner. So why is he suddenly miles behind enemy lines dodging armies, army killing spells and one really pissed off woman on a Tracara? |
|
Elemental Fury
|
Rouge soldiers from the plane of fire are reeking havok on the valley. Can one lone squire and a band of people who happend to be in the wrong place at the right time stop them. Or are they just in over thier heads....again. |
| Brisquen's Journey | Seperated from the rest of his herd this centaur begins a long lonely journey through a land of chaotic demons to find his way home. |

Introducing to the general public a first peek a currently running PBEM game known only as The Quest. I have included the first seven chapters, sections 1-33. Also made some minor changes to the Now Playing/Coming Soon pages. |
|
9/4/02
|
Added a few new chapters to: WAR: The Spy; And for now the only game open to new players is The Challenge so I will assume all new character submissions are for that game. But this may change soon so keep looking |
|

|
Sadly I have forgotten to include the updates of the last several months, and I'll try and keep from doing that in the future. However I will say that the PBP game The Challenge is always accepting new players as more and more fail to handle the challenge. Just read the rules and post your potential character to the appropriate forum and I'll take it from there. |

Thus begins the first Play by Post PBP game in Atrias; Originally titled "Dead meat on a stick" it has been changed to the much less menacing titled of Waiting to be killed....oh wait sorry I meant The Challenge; you can find it on the Psycho Dragon Inn Message board. Check out the New player discussion forum before you do anything first. |

You may have also noticed that the survey has not been updated on the Psycho Dragon Inn. That is because multicities.com has decided to go to e-mail only surveys instead of putting them up on web pages for all new surveys. That's fine by me because I've already decided to go else where for future surveys/message boards/chat rooms/etc. But all that is in the near mythical full-site update package. But the message board still works so get out there and post! post! post! |
|

After an extended absence (at least as far as updates are concerned), I am back and I've started with adding new chapters to: WAR: The Spy |
|
12/27/00

Add several new web rings to the Portals section! Why add more than one web ring you ask? Well I picked out the ones which I figured were most relevant out of the thousands perused and since past experience has taught me that some ring masters simply don't want new additions. So I'll give them all a chance to see if they want me and after a suitable period of time, if they don't then I'll remove the link. So I figure about half will vanish before too long. Maybe I'll think about structuring it better. Hmmm.... |
|

New Survey at the Psycho Dragon Inn! Go check it out! Thanks for all those who participated in the old survey, I'll see what I can do to make you happy. |

Yes, you guessed it! New chapters to WAR: Monster Attack, but this time I've also included a new chapter to the Warlord saga. Also you may have noticed that my guestbook appears empty. That's because geocities decided to do away with the old guestbooks and came up with a new method that doesn't allow me to customize it as much as I had in the past. |

In an attempt to make character creation and role playing of each particular class easier I have created a special page dedicated to each of the classes. It contains information on the class in a hopefully easy to understand format. For the moment I only have the dedicated Fighters (Warriors) page up, other classes will follow. You can access this page through the background information page. |
