I don't play Imperian very much anymore, and I'm not very active on the forums, but I thought she might like it if we could share some positive memories of her, or that at least anyone reading might sit back and remember her warmth. 

I had some art commissioned a few years ago of Leighanna's character, in her selkie form. I'm not sure if she ever shared it with you all, but I'd like to post it as something left of her character, if anyone wants to look back at memories of her in the future. 

I will miss you very much, Leighanna, and I hope you are in a kinder place now.

So, I know theres probably at least a few of you who have noticed I haven't been as active as much lately. I said before in another thread things should be back to normal for me in September. I thought they would be. However, running my new business with my friends, where I'm there about 30 hours a week, and then working my normal job still about 36 hours a week, and finding time to develop my relationship with my girlfriend...things have been less normal than I thought they would be.

I'm not quitting Imperian, or being an Entity. Things will likely continue to be hard in the new future, but I'm not quitting it. I'm trying to find my groove still. How I can still be productive while doing all these things. It's all just very physically and mentally draining for me.

The business itself has been going well. We already have store regulars who just come and hang out with us. We've done quite well in sales. I even ordered and shipped out some Warhammer stuff to a friend I met from Aetolia some time ago(we met in person too before he moved away across the country). A lot of things have been going 'good' for me lately, but with the good, comes the bad. That's the way it goes. I'm not looking for pity, but my home situation has changed drastically this past year, and suddenly I found myself recently having to pay everything by myself all at once. So that has been stressful as well.

I want to finish by saying that I am thinking about Imperian, and all of you, and unlike some other people have done to me, I won't abandon the game, or you. For a long time the last nearly 2 years or so, my life has been work my day job, do stuff on Imperian, sometimes go hang out with friends on weekends. Things have just changed a lot. But I will figure it out, and I appreciate everyone's patience and compassion.

 ]]> Real Life As Scarboro https://forums.imperian.com/index.php?p=/discussion/846/real-life-as-scarboro Sat, 15 Apr 2017 17:35:47 +0000 The Real Life Eosphoros 846@/index.php?p=/discussions
I felt a little inspired to share with you how Imperian has helped me creatively in my own life.

First off, who the heck is Scarboro? I'm certain a vast majority (of those that have stuck through to the very end) don't know about this Character I had developed for specifically this game and moreso for intensive Role-play purposes. Anyways, simply HONOURS EOSPHOROS for a little insight if you're interested.

Unfortunately there seemed to be a lot of decline in RP going around and sadly my investment towards Scarboro did not yield much fruit within the game.  My over-analytical brain took 3 entire years to fully flesh this Character out, very extreme I know, and why it has great significance for me due to the time and effort spent, but hopefully not in vain.

Outside Imperian, I enjoy creating music: making beats for friends or original mixes in the electronic dance genres. Then I had this idea - what if I took elements from Imperian to create a unique brand name for myself as an aspiring artist calling myself simply, 'SCARBORO'.

How would this translate from Imperian to the music world? It starts with fundamentals like the race of the Character: Akrabi. The brand image I have in mind would be a tribal scorpion design. Colours include white, orange, and grey. The Character is described as 'albino Akrabi' all white with coral pink-hued eyes. Also white as in purity, and purity as in the God of Light and lesser degree the Suns, moreso Light. Orange because that is the color of the Character's blood (very alien-predator like, creature look) and grey looks good with white other than the overused black/white. Think of 'White Label' from Mountain Dew to get a sense of colour palate in terms of lightness and the purity of all white. Also being a natural predator and seeking out to become an Idrasi is part of the Character as well but to a lesser form. There is a lot of depth to the Character as well as lots of details, which plays into the kind of music I enjoy creating as an artist.

All these various colors and images help form the look I wish to bring as an artist in order to bring about a very unique and custom brand that isn't a cliche. The idea of Scarboro became too big for just this game alone, there's also a certain mindset that comes with the Character, a quiet confidence and cool and calm. And with that mindset comes the type of music I wish to share as my personal style of what is known as Tech-House and Techno genres of EDM, which is heavy rhythm orientated music.

I hope this was entertaining and insightful. Perhaps if anyone is interested in the music I would be happy to point you to my SoundCloud page where it would be posted.

Take care and cheers guys,

Scarboro

Compass rose composite design. Part a stock photo I dug up somewhere combined with alterations from me and my artist. He did a phenomenal job with what I came to him with. I went to half a dozen other dudes and they all had truly boring suggestions or informed me I couldn't get what I wanted where I wanted it. I LOVE it there. I can see it, which was the point. It's to remind me to keep chasing my dreams. Rawr.

This one is incredibly difficult for me to take a picture of. Awkward angle no matter what I do. The script needs a touchup. It's a memorial for Sethren/Verick. He's a big part of why I keep at my writing goals. It was meant to be a quill, somehow lost the tip. Still love it, going to go get that fixed next time I have spare cash around.
