Dragon Warrior

Yeah. I didn't put too much description in chapter 1 because I wanted it to fly by and just show what Matthias was like and maybe some details about Gordendok. I was planning on writing way more in my next chapters, which I'll probably post today. Handcuffs? ;_; Thanks, Annie ^_^ I will not fail to please you again, then.

Well, I can still safely say that [b]The Hobbit[/b] was one of the first books that actually had me imagining a new world. I could see the rich landscapes that Tolkien did so well explaining. The eagles in The Hobbit were pictured in my head just as they were seen in the movies. Very large eagles =P They definately should make The Hobbit a movie as well. All the movie versions of it are either cartoons or crappy crap crap =D

Ah. He named his son after good ole Obi Wan, eh? Mer :) Oh, and I found this dude saying stuff about Star Wars and how it's a bad influence on kids. Something about how the good guy (Anakin, I suppose) becomes evil and it's teaching children that good can become criminals. Just some dude who's goofy.

Oh. It's travel through forests, then mountains, then forests, and so forth. But remember, I was a kid. Now, I like C.S. Lewis and his Narnia books. I only read the first two and a little of the third. He has decent writings. Turns out Tolkien and C.S. Lewis were good pals back in their day. But the thing was they wanted to read the same type of book, but could never find something to their taste. So they decided the only way to get what they want was to write it themselves. So in a way, C.S. Lewis and Tolkien's writings are similar. They both did create famous worlds of great fantasy.

Is Mara a person? I'm sorry. I don't read the books :< You just said Mara married Luke so it seemed obviously so.

I already know plenty on how evil came to it, but this Silmarillion sounds intriguing, nevertheless. But as such, I may read The Hobbit again. Parts of it I adored greatly, but sometimes, it was the same rubbish over and over again so that's what bored me. Maybe now that I'm older, I can enjoy it :)

I tried reading through The Hobbit and got rather bored so I never finished it. I never started reading LOTR because of that. Though, there's rumor that The Hobbit was the most boring of the bunch, anyways. I should probably give that good ole trilogy a good whack, then, aye? :)

Well, I suppose I didn't make it clear. In one sentence I mention that the book on the pedestal is of Matthias' world, Gordendok. So there ya go. It takes place in Gordendok, a medieval/piratey world.

Well, naturally, since it's the newest one, it may also grab a new audience of people (mostly younger) who weren't aware of Star Wars until a new movie was released to show them the Star Wars Universe. And hopefully they do bring out episodes 7-9 because I was crushed to finally have LOTR end. I'm still aching because I loved it so much that I just wished it'd go on forever and keep feeding me it's fantastic tales. I want George Lucas to feed the Star Wars hunger of all us fans :)

This is a story I thought up where it's actually not a comedy. I took a strange group of characters and shuffled them into a storyline which seemed to work out in the end. It's about a ranger named Matthias endlessly searching for a way to revive his wife since she died years ago. Magic is his answer, but no one knows if it's real. He's soon loosing hope that magic is nothing, but legend until his beliefs are revived when he meets a horse who can talk. The horse doesn't know much about who he is or where he is, just that the reason why he's a horse... Though, he does not tell Matthias this, he may just help Matthias get his wish at the same time of helping himself... even if he can't remember his own name. I'll post chapters. Here's a short chapter to start it off. [center][SIZE=4][b]Chapter 1[/b][/SIZE] [/center] The sheer will to see her again seemed to give Matthias strength to enter the towering tomb of his beloved lost wife, the one true love he ever had vanished within the realms of the afterlife. It?s large white walls marked with age and wear, the tapestries that hung in a spherical pattern around the large, open room giving it some sort of representation that this tomb was here for a reason. He approached the significant stone coffin that cradled his love. He looked up from the beautiful handcrafted designs on the cover of the sarcophagus to admire the book on a pedestal. It was like a bible to Matthias? world, Gordenlok. Its pages were leafed through recently. Matthias often came here to regain hope. You see, he wishes to bring her back. He wishes to bring her back--with magic! Magic: the powerful tool known to man as legend, known to the superstitious as the Apocalypse, and known to people with lost hope, like Matthias, as the only key to bringing their pain to an end. Untrue scandals only bring this wretched type of weapon into the minds of the people. They believe it to be a true thing. But is it really? Matthias believes it is and it?s his ticket to getting his wife back in his arms once more. Taking his eyes off the book of gods, he knelt down on one knee before the great coffin and revealed a simple rose from his cloak. It was white, like the tomb walls and almost everything else around. He laid it gently on the coffin top next to her name, which was carved in with chisel and hammer. ?Your favorite,? he said to her as though she could hear. ?I feel I?m getting closer.? He paused often between what he said to her, as if to take in air before diving into deep waters. ?I?m also having troubles. A man in a town called Forgendane told me of a magic creature called the Haslox, but it was never true. I searched and searched and did everything he said. I know he was just pulling my leg.? He began to wring his cloak in his sweaty hands, anger rising. ?I should?ve been smarter than that! More wise! Time is of the essence and I can?t keep allowing myself to fall into untrue gossip and folklore. In good time, you will be with me again. I promise.? He stood up and dusted off his pants. The tomb floor was dirty, after all the years of maturing. His constant attempts to find some form of magic to revive his wife were often trashed by laughing patrons of pubs and travelers who got kicks out of killing a poor ranger?s dreams. Constant objections to his journeys have been placed before him, but he disregards them and continues forth, determined to find a way. Though, he has had no luck. Battling creatures from the lesser depths of Gordendok has been one of his greater obstacles. Like any world, there are dangers and the dangers of Gordendok outmatch any of our world. He has faced Komodos, the archer lizards of the forests. He?s had countless attacks by the Rutarikans, which are nasty ogre-like creatures that wield deadly, long blades. He often is facing these monsters in combat, his two blades and his bow the only things from keeping him from ending up at the tip of a sword. Putting aside his misadventures, he stood back up, still keeping his gaze on the white rose. Then he made a swift turn, not knowing his cape knocked the rose to the floor. Strangely enough, the quiet sound--No! Almost impossible to hear sound of the rose hitting the floor made him turn. Noting it fell, he returned to where he once stood and placed it back on its cradle, making sure it didn?t fall again. He then left the tomb. It was still quite early in the afternoon and the sun was at its peak, shining its brilliant rays through the trees? canopy. It made him forget all worries to see such peace and beauty in one place, especially in the world of Gordendok, which some folk wish to rename it the World of the Damned. ?It?s crumbling apart,? some would say. Others would rave on about how the Lords and Ladies were all fools for doing what they?ve done. But what they?ve done is what keeps Gordendok from sheer destruction. It?s the ranting fools that may lead to the extinction of this world. Matthias saddled up and mounted his horse. In the world of Gordendok, horses were sacred. Some humans even treated them better than themselves. Horses were very unique and special and ministered close to royalty. Matthias took great care of his horse, Karoweon. It?s name means lightning fast and that it was. It took Matthias quite some time to learn to ride at such a pace. He didn?t believe there was a faster horse out there than Karoweon. And so, he rode off away from his love?s dreary tomb on Karoweon, not sure where he?d go next to find a way to bring her back. Unfortunately, he?s not alone. For in the shadows of the leaves and where the sun doesn?t break the canopy, an arrow is pulled back across a wooden bow, the tip with Matthias? name on it.

If Anakin brings someone back to life, could it possibly be Qui Gon Jin? Or even more so... his mother? :) Creepy thoughts, aye? Could be a villain for all we know. I mean, he is turning evil in this one. Something to ponder about there, aye? But yet, it's just gossip.

You haven't been in all of the animations so far. And Mr. T is on there because he's so damn cool. I pity da fool!

No, No, Lord Prozen. The computer I used the animation works fine. In fact, the animation went quite quickly on my computer. I just had to make sure the slower readers could read the text before it leaves. And to change the time of how long a frame stays on, you don't duplicate it. You right-click a frame, go to properties, and type in a number.

Correct! Lrb gets the point! Inuluvr1... [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?postid=537568[/img] [b]Q:[/b] In Episode 14 of Season 2 ("Let's Go To The Hop"), what did Tony the Tiger get as a gift?

Ohhh... I'm sorry, KKC. Incorrect. Now there's a toss up! Anyone can answer accept KKC! [IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?postid=537201[/IMG] [b]Q:[/b] In Episode 16 of Season 2 ("There's Something About Paulie"), who does Peter go to in the end to finally call off the hit on Lois?

Timing also determines how fast your comp is. If your computer is slow, it'll often make the animation incredibly slow. Trust me, my computer is slow and it sucks watching it on there. But on faster computers the battle scene with the Koopa flies by in a second. Also, when you first load the animation and are watching it as it loads, it tends to be a bit slower than it would be if it were loaded.

Heh. I'm not James. I'm Gavynn. James is the administrator of these boards here. ^_^ But thanks for compliments.

Thanks, Ms. Ayler. The Bert and Ernie dealy was half-credited to Family Guy. They were first to make Bert and Ernie gay XD And I love the name Stephanie XD Dunno why.

My grandfather loves it. It's his favorite show. He must've been crushed when the creator died :( I know I was. But the memories of those good ole comics and such will always be here. Gotta love that Snoopy XD Plus, Charlie Brown shares my last name :)

Ya know, I want Flash, but it's just so gosh dang expensive. That or it's a really large file :( So many things keep me from being creative to my full extent and it just shatters me to think such things XD
