Minions! Operatives! With just over two weeks to go, the countdown
to Theatre of Shadows has truly begun. There are only a few
tickets left, so if you want to take part in an ASTONISHING ADVENTURE THAT WILL
CHANGE THE WORLD* then please book now to secure a place in Dublin!
(*May not actually change the world.)
Today marks the launch of the Theatre of Shadows microsite:
here you'll find galleries, an archive of all the messages so far in the hunt
for Silas, and all the news to come. Just click the link ENTER THE DARKNESS from the main Theatre of Shadows page. We've built this specifically to include all the
American, Swedish and Norwegian Minions — who until this point have been unable
to register — in order to have a truly global experience. There'll be
heaps more to come, and for anybody not based in USA Sweden or Norway, don't
forget to register for the online Theatre of Shadows Mystery here.
The microsite password will be changed regularly so keep on here.
First one to get you started though is… RESCUE.
Wondering what on earth I'm talking about?
Theatre of Shadows is an immersive fan event like no other…
on Saturday 27th September, those lucky enough
to secure a ticket will be taken on an adventure inside the
world of the books. I'll be there, along with the incredible LARP (Live Action
Role Playing) specialists who have helped produce this madness. There'll
be role-playing, problem solving and an amazing quest to tackle. The
event is tailor-made by yours truly and I'll be writing a brand new short story, inspired and informed
by YOUR participation, on the day! Which means the brave actions of ALL the
Operatives – Live and Remote - stand a chance of entering officially into the
Skulduggery history books.
Once you've registered and are heading into battle: remember to
leave a REFLECTION behind to keep friends and relatives quiet. Our shiny new Reflections Hall of Fame app is now live on Facebook. I want to see your preppiest, most saccharine
outfits and expressions people! Remember — you Reflections are the goody-goody
two-shoes version of you, so smile, be happy, and be the "perfect"
version of you that you can be! If you'd like to share these as your profile
pictures then all the better. Mention #TheatreofShadows so that other
Operatives will know you're in on the secret.

Thanks Fabi. You Fabulous!
I really do love you...*hugs*
*kisses her cheek* Do you want cuddle time?
Then what do you want? I am here for you.
That does not bode well, why do you wish to? What is there you seek?
You are not a piece of shit, you are an amazing person. Rose....
You're a person who is loved, Rose. You are always loved.
No, I would NEVER forget.
I would never, I could never forget you.
No, we are NOT testing it. Get your ass back here.
Rose don't you even dare. You get back now.
Oh hi Dragona care to help me?
ROSE STOP IT OK? STOP YOU NEED TO CALM DOWN AND THINK YOU REALLY WANT TO LEAVE PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY CARE? FOR WHAT?!
(This is not Dragona.)
Dragona- this isn't roleplay fyi this is Rose LEAVING
You cannot give up. Stop it, you are strong. Keep breathing, Rose. Keep breathing, keep talking to us.
You are not giving up, because you have Em. You need to stay strong for yourself. Rose, come back, okay? Come back where you have friends.
Then don't add. Stay strong, think of anyone and anything that keeps you going. Roleplaying even. Anything. You made a promise, keep that promise to Em, stay strong and show her the light, you both can help each other, Rose. You're each other's light.
(As I said previously, this is not Dragona. And quite frankly - there's nothing he could do at the moment which I can't.)
Then continue to give her hope, Rose. You can do it, be the light for her, she is there for you, as are all of is. You're a package deal.
(Pixels, hm? You can do lots with some pixels.
However, you shouldn't have made a promise you couldn't keep - it defeats the object of a promise.)
(Alright, Elleni.)
Hello Elleni.
Wbd, working on the new challenge for the GtB blog...
The prologue is up.
http://bloglandpuzzlesandgames.blogspot.com/2014/09/the-new-challenge-prologue.html
Thank you. :-)
So do I. I've been wanting to do something like this for a while, but I'm a bit worried that not enough people will participate... That's part of why I'm bringing in the whole team thing.
Are you going to stay up and try to see the auroras?
Well, thank you. :-)
Okay, see you.
Hello.
Hey Amy!
Hello Fabi! How are you?
I'm good. You?
I'm good too! :)
Good. :-)
How's school?
It hasn't started yet for me...
I have orientation Wednesday.
Oh, okay.
I'm going to go on a walk with my sister, to see if we can find a place with a bit less tree cover, so I'll be back later.
Okay. Talk to you later!
Hello Elleni! How are you?
What's happened.
Hello Silente. How are you?
I mean whats happened with Rose. All the deleted comments? All the replies? Has anyone heard from her.
Oh... No idea. I hope she's okay...
I hope it was just a temporary one and hopefully she gets better after some time...
Oh. Elleni, it starts a little above us, if that's what you mean... Like middle of this page.
Judging from Loki/Zaf's responce shes took a bad turn. (for lack of a better term)
@El its not your fault if you didnt see something
(Hello again.)
Is there any way we can help her in the long run?
Hello Sophia. How are you?
Gotta go. Will be back in 10-20 minutes. :\
(Hello and goodbye, Amethyst.)
(Personally, I think that is ridiculous. But from what I understand of Tarzan - that isn't much better.
I think a person should be self-reliant and independent.)
(Is this another moment of random disappearance?)
Back!
HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*does exactly what she did in Irish dance because it amuses herself*
*did I ever tell you that sometimes in 'real life' I do ridiculous things and then it amuses myself so much I burst out laughing? Yeah.... I do that....*
*wanders into somewhere and hugs the wall. Realizes it's vibrating and steps back looking at it*
*her friend notices it also and they begin to put their ears to the wall, listening to the humming*
*they begin feeling the wall until they have figure out how big the vibrating thing is*
*they call out to their Irish dance teacher who is looking at them weirdly even though she is kinda used to their weirdness by now*
*Dugglyn's eyes widen and she gasps in horror*
IT'S THE REFRIED BEANS!!!!!!!! THEY'RE GOING TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD!!!!
(Hello Amethyst and Dugglyn.)
(Don't know what that was about....
It was kinda random.)
Hey Dugglyn! How are you?
(HI SOPHIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*goes to update her profile...
Brb.*
Hey Dug.
(AMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*offers a face flavored lollipop*
I'M GOOD!!!! SUPER TIRED SO I MIGHT BE...
UM...
WEIRD. ER THAN USUAL...
BUT GOOD!!!!! HOW BE'S YOUS?!?!?!?!? HOW BE'S YOUS EYES?!!?!?)
*takes the lollipop* Thank you!
*sucks on it* I'm fine, thanks. My eyes are also okay. :)
SILLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*huggles her, glad she is normal and not rewritten*
(Nm about the email El....
And ok!!!!!)
*just smiles and nods*
Oh that's good!
o_o wait what?
("Usually when people are sad, they don't do anything. They just cry over their condition. But when they get angry, they bring about a change.")
(She was rewritten. Just not by Zafira or any of her goons.)
Wait, who?
*laughs, an easy smile flowing onto her lips, and hugs Dug back*
Guess who's back. Back again. I iz back. Tell a friend.
What happened? Did I miss something super major?
(Ok, I guess you could say that but it was written back to her original personality. Which is good.)
(Wait..
Sil. Why are you up so early?!)
(I believe Zafira kidnapped Silente and tried to change her to like something called Barbie, there was a short fight, and then Silente was changed back to her normal self as if James and Erica hadn't changed her, or something.)
(When bad stuff happens on the blog my body tends to be evil and wake me up too early.
Also...you know...people are here....
And bad dreams...)
(So Erica and James split Ashlea (clone of Sil who is now a real person) and Silente's personality so Sil was evil and Ash was good. She became worst and worst and then Zaf was going to rewrite Sil and pose saved her and now she's back!!)
*smiles*
Thank you!!! I'm so glad!!!
(Aw..
*huggles*)
*hugs Silente*
("The world needs anger. The world often continues to allow evil because it isn't angry enough.")
Soooooooooooo!!!! Role play with her face and they were talking about her eyes which are slowly melting and drowning in refried beans and rice is for horses!!!
(I will have to kill Zafira.)
o_o *is still kind of confused over the details but that's okay - at least everything turned out fine*
Have to? HAVE TO? You don't have to do anything!
OMG DID YOU GUYS HERE ABOUT THE SOLAR FLARE??!?!?! THE CME WAVE (coronal mass ejection) WELL, THE SECOND ONE (the first one hit on Thursday and was only a 1) IS COMING TONIGHT/MIGHT ALREADY HAVE HIT AND WE MIGHT SEE THE NORTHERN LIGHTS AND IT IS CLASS G3 AND IT MIGHT (maybe not) DISRUPT STUFF AND IT IS SO DARN COOL AND AWESOME BECAUSE I LOVE SOLAR STORMS AND I WANT TO STUDY THEM!!!!!!!!!!!
*nods and stops hugging Dug*
All better now 'kay?
(*has an annoying urge to get Sil tortured....*)
(Amethyst - from what I understand, Zafira took her to her lair and began to attempt to rewrite her personality completely - Hunter (who has tabs on the Sanctuary), a Mind Mage (who knows everything about the Sanctuary and could bring one collapsing down if they so wished), found Silente. There were some brief exchanges of energy, whilst the mind mage reversed what Zafira had done - then it seems they reconstructed Silente using her memories of what she was like before she turned bad or something.)
(*has the annoying urge to be nice and not torture people because SHE STILL HASN'T BROKE AGAIN AND IF SOMEONE were to maybe torture her? She might break...*)
That sounds interesting, Dugglyn!
Ohhh. I kind of get it now. Thanks Sophia!
THEY ARE REALLY COOL!!!!!!!!!!!! AND HAVE POTENTIAL (but it's unlikely) TO SERIOUSLY DAMAGE THE EARTH!!! (As in us technically dependent people)
(I wasn't exactly concentrating throughout that.
Silente, I think torturing your character would be unwise - I think she might have had enough.)
(Well.....
I was hoping it might break me again...)
(I think we should role play before I spam out then faint.)
(I have no intentions of being tortured - it has only happened once to me here, which was when I blew up Blake with a grenade and he turned into a bloody god.)
(*laughs at El* nah. I just..I like feeling Sil's emotions. Pain is her strongest emotion..
@Sophia *everything darkens* she'll never have had enough.)
(As I said before: The more I talk to you people, the more convinced I am sane.)
...o_o are you guys okay?
I mean...Silente, Dugglyn, and Elleni...Sophia seems fine...
(Yeah...
Well we could always do noncommercial. The program is great to taste and fun to work.
And Soho Sane??!?! Yeah right!!!
(Of course I'm fine. I'm being bloody sensible.)
(Kidding El. I just...*shrugs* sometimes random urges happen.)
(Do not call me Soho.)
*backs away slowly* ... o_o
(We Amy, yes and no. See I am not broken. It's fun to be broken. I torture people and go absolutely insane. So it's sad for me but good for peoples)
(Soho?)
(Ooohh. Soho. Soy sauce!!! It was an honest mistake!!!!! I'm fired and it's hard to tasteless!)
*hugs back*
*whispers* Are you sane? ...am I even sane?
*pops up between them*
*whispers*
We're all insane...
(I think you could be joint-first for being sane out of everyone on at the moment.
*sees Dugglyn*
*freezes*
*stares*
Well, we did a tour of everywhere, but there were people having the sort of parties where you drink alcoholic beverages and kiss a lot in most of the empty fields we knew of. So them we're on our way home, and we finally find an empty field with little light pollution and no drunk people.
And we didn't see any auroras. :-(
We have a plan for next time, though. It's kinda ironic, because we drove all the way out to North Bend and then ended up finding a good spot less than half a mile from our house.
*laughs maniacally*
Good good good good good good good good good good good idea to get a lollipop face-to-face with my phone!! Pie!!!
*bounces around town like bacon*
Hello Fabi!
That's unfortunate :( Hopefully you will have better luck next time!
(Oh no! I was going to try to see them too!! In the city....)
(Also hi!!!!!)
...am I sane? *ponders that*
*waves to Xya who is ghosting*
HI!!!!!! REMEMBER THIS FOR AFTER YOU REED THE FIRST ONE!!!
Well, they could very well show up between now and 2AM. I need sleep, though.
And we tried to find a spot away from the city because light pollution. Though it's quite possible they'd be visible anyway. We just didn't want to risk it.
(Yeah, I heard sometime after midnight. And I'm kinda worried about light pollution....)
(Yes, Xya!!!! Or Afro!! Either work though I think Xya is her taken name even she hasn't read the books yet)
PURPLE NEW PAGE!!!!!!
(You people are like a disease, infecting those around you.)
(gee thanks El. I just get a straight up 'no you're insane.' Thanks. :P)
(yes we are Sophia. We are. *hugs Sophia with hopes of infecting her too*)
Ok. So I dedicate this page to purple, carzy, solar flares, gumdrop, Master Dooba, Randy and Handy Mandy and Xandy, and the PP's. Sigh, the good ol days.
(And Xya waves back!:)))
I also dedicate this page to the first time I ever ate my friend and drowning in refried beans and rice for I don't think you want to go to be neighbors and friends of her face to face with my mask and the clearing out!!
(*throws Silente backwards* I am already immune.)
I really miss roleplaying...
Gtg, parents up!)
(You can join in, Fabi.
Goodbye Dugglyn.)
Bye Dugglyn!
Most of my characters would have to deal with never having met people before, and I haven't been keeping track of the plots...
I mean, part of me wants to roleplay, but another part doesn't want to deal with it...
(Fabi - the answer is simple. Let them meet people and if anything is mentioned - they could ask about it and gain an understanding of current affairs.)
Goodbye Dugglyn.
(Ok, so just checked to see if we saw any northern lights but there weren't any but I don't think we'd be able to see them. Too much light pollution and the moon's full. :/
But I should sheep, I normally go to bed at nine and was falling a sheep at Irish so I need sheep. Pie!!!!!)
(It has occurred to me that people may be confused about what my ship actually looks like:
http://thedeadhorse.files.wordpress.com/2011/09/mass-effect-normandy.jpg
Obviously, it's called the SSV Naseby, not the Normandy, and rather than red, it has blue.)
I guess I'll try then. One moment...
I found a map thing and it looks like they're just not visible here. :-/
(Alright, Fabi.)
I think I'm going to leave now. Goodnight/morning!
(Goodnight Amethyst.)
Goodbye, Amy.
Hi.
*tilts head at Lux* And who might you be?
(Hello, Star.)
Lux Seren, tracker. Nice to meet you.
Hi Star.
Commander Sophia Keating - Spectre.
Did I hear introductions?
*leaning in the shadow of a tree so she's cast in shadow*
[She smiles for an undefined reason]
Interesting.
What does your title imply?
Hello, there.
*looks Lux up and down*
Hmm..
I have the rank of Commander in the Alliance Navy. Being a Spectre implies that I am part of Special Tactics and Reconnaissance - I have to ensure galactic peace by any means necessary, which normally ends in a lot of shooting.
I would ask what your title implies, but I do not need to.
(OH MY GOODNESS GRACIOUS ME!!! I JUST REALIZED SOMETHING!!!!!)
Hmm?
[She shifts her weight]
Well, galactic peace is always nice. Good luck with that.
(Hello, Vivanus)
I had a dream last night where Zaf killed Adra and then somehow a whole group of us were underground in this mine cart on these rails and for some reason I thought it would be beat if we all drove into the lava and died too but Ariana redirected us and we got out unharmed which was kind of 'Oh', which meant that this other person who'd died had sacrificed his life for nothing so that sucked.
*best
(Hello Lux)
(Elleni! Hi!)
My job hardly comes down to luck, but thank you.
(That doesn't sound like a very pleasant dream, Star...)
(what have you realised Viv?)
*smiles at Lux' discomfort*
*shrugs off and away from the tree, the sun hitting her pale skin as she smoothly walks towards Lux*
[shrugs]
Fair enough.
Msd,I think . . .
*waves hi to everyone :)*
@Lux: It was okay. But um, thank you?
[You're jumping to conclusions, sweetie.]
[Turns her attention to the approaching vampire]
Now, who might you be?
Hi.
Hi Raven. :)
*raises an eyebrow, starting to walk very slow circles around lux*
I'm me. And who would you be?
How are you Star?
(Hello, Raven.)
Good, thanks, Raven. :) You?
Hello Commander, how are you and for the sake of comment saving, how is everyone else?
Hello, Raven.
-
Well, I'm clearly not you.in case you were wondering.
[She turns, looking Silente in the eye]
[Her foot snakes out to trip her--it's a very controlled motion]
*you, in case
I'm great thanks.
(I'm average. Yourself?)
I am fine.
(She says thank you.)
*hits the foot and almost stumbles, managing to make the stumble look graceful and more like a big step*
@Raven: That's great. :)
*sighs, her arms glowing blue* *lifts Silente and Lux into the air, holding them apart*
Oh, terribly sorry about that.
[She doesn't mean it, of course]
[She doesn't leave her foot hanging there, she brings it back under her and stands normally]
(I realized that sorcerer parents have the easiest job on earth until their kids take their own names!)
[is lifted into the air]
[Looks down]
I see.
That's so true Vivanus.
*taps Lux on the shoulder*
(OMG that's so true!)
*frowns when shes lifted*
*glares at Lux*
*looks at Sophia*
Put us down.
