Welcome to the Tales Collection, my friends. This is a haven where friends can be made and memories cherished. We offer a variety of activities including roleplaying, writing, polls, contests and the like. There are times when forum life can become stressful but that is what Tales Collection is for-- to escape the frustration of everyday life. Rant about the injustices of life, share the joys of your day, post that history paper for all we care. Simply put, this forum is for discussion and provides a place where individuals can find others who have something in common with them.

6-29-08 Hello there, everyone! Tales Collection has had a pretty good opening month plus seeing as most of the originally active Tales members have returned. We do have some new ones as well which is great. For those who want something more competitive, check out the contest section since we have a writing contest in session! 5-06-08 I am convinced that Tales Collection is pretty much complete, although there are still some minor things I may want to add or fix. Meanwhile, members are free to advertise and flock in at their own leisure. ^-^

Looking to advance? « Thread Started on May 5, 2008, 1:55pm »
Well, here's your chance. I require no specific post count nor any number of points in order for one to apply for entry into one of the higher-leveled playing fields. All you need to do is fill out this form in another thread and await approval; your thread will be moved to the Application Archive once it has been reviewed. However, fail to follow directions, and your application is automatically denied. You will have to wait another month before applying.
Code:
[b]Name:[/b] Your name, please. [b]Level:[/b] Your current level (trainee or honors). [b]Level desired:[/b] The level you wish to advance to (Yes, you are permitted to skip from trainee to honors if you so wish.). [b]Roleplay Experience:[/b] List a minimum of three RPs (URLs too, please.) you have participated in (They can be anything from whole forum RPGs to thread-RPs. However, I do not wish for you to list RPs which you have been a moderator or host of. This is because I want to gauge your experience working with others on the same ground, not as a higher-up.) [b]Roleplay-hosting Experience:[/b] Just list a few sites or threads (with URLs). This won't affect your eligibility negatively but it may help. [b]Response to a prompt:[/b] Take a look at the prompt below and respond to the best of your ability with a character you have already or even just created. No character sheet required. Do not complain about the prompt, as it will change on occasion. It is here to test your ability to adapt and flexibility.
It was dawn... the sun had just began to rise above the mountainous horizon in the east. Arrays of color spread out across the sky, as if an artist's paintbrush had claimed the heavens as his landscape. Small peeps from early risers could be heard, the birds singing soft melodies to each other from atop the many branches of the trees. A gentle wind grazed above the treetops, blowing the changing leaves to and fro. The leaves which had browned and fallen scattered in the breeze, helpless to where the draft would take them. Dark boots tread the land in a rhythmic motion. Vierka glanced at the rising sun and smiled-- it was peaceful to see such things in the midst of all of her worries. When she looked at nature, it seemed to wash her pondering away and fill her with some sort of idle joy. Ignorance was bliss after all. If she didn't realize or remember something, she wouldn't think about it. The earth was moist and soft, seeing as it had just rained the night before. Niakru seemed to like this, despite the fact that Vierka would just have to clean his paws later from the mud that gathered on his fur.
She yawned, settling down on a path of green moss to see what she could eat. Her stomach rumbled hungrily as she opened the lunch cloth. Vierka pulled out a small amount of berries which she eagerly popped into her mouth. Their sweet juices filled her and made her smile. Niakru barked in the distance and the half-elf packed her things away. Usually, Niakru only barked when he had found something-- namely food. She hoisted everything onto her back again before trotting toward the direction from which Niakru's voice came from. He barked once more, running back to his companion and tugging at her shorts with his teeth. "Calm down there, Niakru," Vierka replied in a pleasant tone. "Let's see what you've found." The Half-elf brushed a few tree branches aside to reveal...
Thank ye kindly. Staff will have results in no more than a week.
