There is confusion tinged with fear in his eyes. Never before had he experienced anything like that hungry grasp which seized him. Seized him and drew him to this place, this strange forum of text-based roleplaying. Something from the very heart of this forum, something terrible, something hungry, something very old and very powerful that has been waiting for a very long time had grasped him from the NWN boards where he was simply the subject of a post about ranger dual-wielding abilities. He thought that he would be utterly and completely consumed so great was the emptiness which drew him toward itself, but something had happened to free him. There were storms of terrible violence and whatever had seized him could not maintain its grasp as it drew him through those storms.

He has browsed the threads of this forum in search of a means back to the familiar CRPG world from which has been so violently snatched, but there seems to be no escape. He stills feels it, however, the hungry pull from the center of the forum and he wonders how it is that so many threads proceed as if nothing at all were wrong. And so his browsing turned into the agonizing chore of traveling through old and distant threads far from these first two pages of posts, a journey made more difficult by the lack of a search command. At last his wanderings brought him here to this very strange thread – the only IW roleplaying thread to ever have an ending. And here the pull of the great and terrible emptiness nearly captures him once more. Resisting its pull he reads each and every post of the great battle against the One that Mods and as he comes to the conclusion of the thread his eyes widen in horror. The character Cyril, called the Windbringer, allowed the fierce and unyielding appetite of the Chaos Hound to remain within the soil of the forums!

“The Modding Mage has fallen,” his voice is little more than a whisper, “but the tale itself is not so finished as was thought .....”

He walks slowly back to the page of active threads having made his decision. He may be little more than a swiftly generated character from the NWN single player campaign, but he will find others to join him in the difficult journey to that officially concluded thread so that the terrible Hunger that threatens the characters of these boards might be destroyed.

ooc: Larry - This character is now in your hands.

Presently the following players are involved in the thread:
* Azrael Stormblade - playing Dantes, his character from the original LOF story
* Morgeruat - playing his character from the original LOF -- a 'fallen' paladin?
* Ar Cunin - playing a fighter
* Larry_OHF - making an appearance on the side of the good guys [img]graemlins/blueblink.gif[/img]
* Cerek - playing a cleric of Odin
