Hi so I
Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket
Hi so I
Hi so I made another post that hasn't been confirmed yet so I can't comment on it, but this is sort of a continuation of that one. I forgot to add some stuff on it, but these aren't really questions. I've noticed that when people want stuff edited, they ask the Admins or Mods so here goes.
Hey Admins, could you please put the following text in my previous post? If you can't find it please let me know.
7. Everybody seems to know each other and know everybody's names. How? There has to be a lot of people here. I don't know what people are talking about and I feel kind of lost.
8. I'm very confused as to what KYNGDOM is exactly. I read all of the information pages and THE STORY SO FAR's, but I still don't get it. My grasp of it is, you create a character and post as that character in the KYNGDOM section of the CB while continuing a story. It is all very confusing to me, as everybody seems to know who each other's characters are already. Where do I create a character? What are all of the 'Power of' things (power of feather, power of claw, power of fin, power of hoof), and how do I know which one I should post in?
I have a suggestion for the Admins or Mods or whoever; try to make CB more welcoming to new users. I have found that all of the experienced users enjoy their time on this site, seem to know each other (to the point where they use nicknames), and are confident with the interface, but I have only seen one other new user (I got your back Foxy) in my time on this site. Granted, I have only been here a short time, but it was very confusing to me.
I don't mean any disrespect, and if I have come across that way I am very sorry.
I just added 7. and 8. to your previous comment and passed your suggestion on to the editors.

Yeah, I know the Chatterbox can be a bit overwhelming at first. I added the Ultimate Guide to your other thread. Welcome! I'm Cockleburr! I like reading, writing, drawing, and gymnastics. What are some of your hobbies? I'm very excited to meet you!

If you know what a roleplay is, Kyngdom is basically like a huge version of that.
There are six Powers in Kyngdom--each is an instrument, and when each is played, it transformed into a huge mythical beast from the dawn of time itself. There's also something called side-affected Powers, which are like evil shadow versions/creations of the Powers, but you don't have to worry about that now.
❄ Power of Howl. (Sometimes known as the Power of Light, in the dawn of time where there was a bunch of crazy stuff going on there with the Powers) It summons what is known as the Angel Wolf, a winged wolf with amazing and mythical powers. Her name is Lunee, but many people deny their sentience or the fact that they even have names. (My character isn't one of those people.) Her instrument hasn't been played yet.
❄ Power of Fang. (Sometimes known as the Power of Darkness, see above) It summons a giant black dragon with amazing and mythical powers. Her name is Claaws, and she recently died. When a Power dies, they turn back into an instrument, waiting to be played again.
❄ Power of Hoof. It summons a unicorn with AMAZING and mythical powers. Her name is Sylvia, and she created all of the living animals, humans, and other beings (except for plants) that we know today. Her instrument hasn't been played yet.
❄ Power of Claw. It summons a giant serpent--with claws, and amazing and mythical powers. His name is Ecio, and he can see very small glimpses of the future from time to time. He's also quite prideful when you get to know him.
❄ Power of Fin. It summons a sea serpent with amazing and mythical powers. However, we don't really know much about him. His name is Ayearth. (Fun fact: His name was originally Ecio, but someone mixed the two names up and it stuck!)
❄ Power of Wing. It summons a Gryphon with amazing and mythical anger issues. His name is Caelani.
❄ There's also a PowerFriend who has no instrument but has a living human line. *suddenly has strange fit of coughing* She honestly doesn't need to be explained.
I'll explain what's going on as best as I can try to explain it in my own words in another post.

*cough cough cough* Ayearth means Anti-earth, for the record, so that was always the sea serpents name. And for another fun-fact, my captcha came up with the name Eico.
But if it wasn't his name to begin with, I was probably the one to mix them up. Guilty as charged. ;)
Also, howdy all! Just give me two more weeks or so, and I'll be back at Kyndom, Icy. Finals are almost over!
(May 22, 2017 - 10:31 pm)
Yessss! YES!
Also, offnote, my brother has finals as well.

We all know each other because we just sort of do. Also, we nickname EVERYONE! I give people nicknames from the moment that I meet them! Make an introductory thread, and we'll all get the chance to meet you. I'm glad to have another new CBer here!
❄❄❄
Here's what's going on in Kyngdom.
The original plot of Kyngdom was that you received a letter from an animal-hating company named the Brazen Inquiry Guild, also known as B.I.G. On the letter was a paw-print and a hurried scrawl in inexperienced handwriting--"DON'T TAKE THE JOB".
The Cypher Project was going on at the time--a project that had successfully created a machine to translate animal speech to humans. B.I.G was interested in getting scientists from the Cypher project to move to their labs--but B.I.G did cruel, evil experiments on animals. They didn't believe in animal sentience at all.
Then the animals came out of the shadows. They confessed that they were sentient, and then they informed the world about FAFA.
FAFA is short for Fur And Feathers Association. They're a group of animals (and human spies inside B.I.G) that fight for the animals, rescue imprisoned test subject animals from B.I.G, and go on a bunch of heroic missions as such.
The FAFA missions, a few happy years, are as follows--
1. Rescue Zephyra.
Zephyra was an aunt of someone called Little Crow, and involved in FAFA. She had stopped outside the Bog & Burrow inn (a type of place for animals to go eat, underneath a human diner called the Jolly Roger) for a quick breather, and was captured by two thugs for B.I.G carrying Cyphers, named Bob & Gog. She had screamed several things saying that she didn't know anything about 'wind' or was it 'wing'?
Well, she had been taken by B.I.G, and FAFA organized a mission to rescue her--and did successfully. When Zephyra got back, she explained about Guardians, and that animals that are alike to a Power (they have it's trait, wings, claws, etc) guard the Power to make sure that nobody has it or would activate it. Then she revealed that she guarded the Power of Wing--and that B.I.G had it!
There was a scuffle, and one of the spies inside B.I.G (I'm SO sorry, I can't remember her name, and no, she isn't an Admin-made character like Zephyra and Little Crow) got the Power of Wing--but later, it was activated (it's unclear how).
The Power summoned a rampaging Gryphon (If you don't know what a Gryphon is, I'm sorry. Also, he just has anger issues. *pats Caelani on the back)! It tore apart at B.I.G's headquarters, and was caught after a long and difficult battle with FAFA (thanks mainly to Scarlet and Storm Windwhisperer, a chicken and an owl who were not Admin-made characters), and placed into a cage made of logs (thanks to some beavers).
2. Find the Power of Claw guardian
They discovered that there was a guardian of the Power of Claw, and a message in some strange, other-worldly magazine called Cricket told them to "Dig under the Stone Tree". And Storm Windwhisperer took the lead, along with a few other players, in planning the mission.
The mission found a huge cavern in the roots of the petrified tree. And a rabid badger.
One of the people on the mission, a girl named Wiseowl who was a morpher, who could shift shapes between girl and owl (Fun facts: a shapeshifter can do any form, a morpher can only do one, but also mutate themselves to have the characteristics of both), had been held captive by B.I.G. She recalled seeing a feral and rabid room full of animals that B.I.G was...turning rabid. (The project was later discontinued.) B.I.G had gotten to the guardian, and the limestone xylophone (which is the instrument of the Power of Claw) that was positioned in the middle of the cavern? A fake.
B.I.G had the power of Claw, and the guardian had died in the fighting.
3. Find the Power of Claw
It was that time again! Time to go back to B.I.G!
This time it was to find the Power of Claw instrument (also, fun fact, my character had been captured and taken to B.I.G at that time as well). And they found the base surprisingly easy to get into after last time.
Then they discovered the horrible truth. B.I.G had the instrument, and all of a sudden one of their young interns (a non-player character invented by UNSUSPECTINGSTORYTELLER, the writer of Wiseowl) named Marsha Yearwood darted forwards and played the xylophone.
Then chaos broke lose. Caelani and Claaws, the two Powers that had been still activated at that time (a gryphon and a dragon), arrived at B.I.G and had a reunion with Ecio, the clawed serpent. Aaaand B.I.G's precious lab got broken again.
In the midst of this, something happened that unless you've done a bunch of research on the Powers, you won't understand. There used to be a boy named Catastrophe who swore revenge on the Powers for an incident that happened with Caelani. He killed them all and invented Brazen Goo, the only poison that can truly poison the Powers. Claaws killed him--but as he was covered in Brazen Goo, she died also, leaving all the Powers as their instrument forms.
Then, Catastrophe made an appearance after having been dead for hundreds of years.
He showed up and the Song of War Bird began to sing, and they knew that war was near...then, after all that, FAFA, Capn'O (a branch of FAFA), and the Powers left their separate directions.
4. Labyrinth lands
FAFA had decided they wanted something to combat the Power of Claw if he got too dangerous. So they headed to the Labyrinth--where the Power of Claw used to be kept. The team followed a series of clues--but Little Crow, Icy, and Eliyana Fur went missing, to later be discovered to have been captured by a mysterious creature named Jaaws (they were rescued, don't worry.)
After beating the series of tests, they got interrupted by B.I.G and digging drills, a giant ground sloth awoke, and the maze flooded.
***
Next, Catastrophe makes an army, several armies are formed, and Kyngdom is in war, to wrap that all up nicely.
