Happy belated birthday! by World-Jumper on 2012-12-20 09:07:00 UTC Reply

Seventeen, A ripe, good age I have not reached yet (soon...)But I missed it! I'm sorry, but what can I possibly give for compensation... hmmm... Oh, I know! It's supposed to be for my brother, but since I did not miss his birthday, and after-birthdays can be even more fun than the actual day, here is a certificate to one Pinkie Pie Party for one whole day! It will be insane, but if you know Pinkie, then you know how nuts it can be. No garantes you won't die in a terrible forth wall acident though.
(But hey, come on, how cool would it be if you were crushed under the forth wall!)
You're dead.
(Yes, but imagine millions would be *sunglasses* watching the funeral.)
That was a terrible joke. Still, being crushed by a immanganary force used for theater... It would be talked about for years.

Have a Minecraft dog!

A... Minecraft has dogs? Interesting.

Yup. Technically, they're tamed wolves... by SeaTurtle on 2012-12-19 21:50:00 UTC Reply

...but that's just nitpicking.

They're so cute and fluffeh.

Oooohhhh. by Lilac Lielac on 2012-12-19 21:55:00 UTC Reply

Tamed wolves that are cute and fluffy shall do. I will put it with my war moose and set it to guarding my fortresses. :D

Congratulations! by EileenAlphabet on 2012-12-19 20:46:00 UTC Reply

You are now of age, if you're living in the wizarding world. If not, you have to wait another year. (Or not, depending on your country of residence.)

Heheheheee by Lilac Lielac on 2012-12-19 20:48:00 UTC Reply

I was contemplating mentioning that. Instead I went with the Twilight reference because it's what popped into my head when I was typing. And I do, unfortunately, have another 365 days (not counting today) until I am legally of age. Canadia and all.

For that astronomy reference, have a full color map of the solar system. And my nostalgia. (I was a huge astronomy nerd as a little kid, and you saying "orbit" triggered memories)

Sweet! Is it to scale? :D

Sure! by hermione of vulcan on 2012-12-19 21:46:00 UTC Reply

Do you want it by distance between the planets or by sizes of the planets?

Hehehehe by Lilac Lielac on 2012-12-19 21:47:00 UTC Reply

Or? Hermione of Vulcan, really. Both. :D

Of course! Silly me. :) (nm) by hermione of vulcan on 2012-12-19 22:24:00 UTC Reply

To scale both ways is the best way. :D (nm) by Lilac Lielac on 2012-12-19 22:25:00 UTC Reply

Indeed. :D (nm) by hermione of vulcan on 2012-12-19 22:28:00 UTC Reply

How strange. Suddenly I am wearing a party hat.

The only twilight I accept is the time of day known as 'crepuscular'.

What about gloaming? (nm) by firemagic on 2012-12-19 20:30:00 UTC Reply

Okay, that too. But nothing written by Stephanie Meyer. (nm) by Lilac Lielac on 2012-12-19 20:30:00 UTC Reply

Bit sensitive to sweets at the moment, but I'll put a stasis spell on it and pull it out once I've got enough savory stuff in me that I won't get queasy. Thanks! :D

Have a Balvhakara suit of power armor!

Hey, my birthday is tomorrow. I wonder how many other Boarders had their birthdays within the same two days or so?

Ooooooooh, power armor? :D by Lilac Lielac on 2012-12-19 15:54:00 UTC Reply

I think I'll need a link to what exactly I've been given.

Hmmmm. The birthday problem means it's inevitable that a large enough group will have some pair with the same birthday, but a specific date is less likely, and 3 within 2 days is... hmmm... I don't think I know how to do this problem!

Re: *prepares babble hat* by firemagic on 2012-12-19 16:30:00 UTC Reply

Well! First off, here is the link to the Bal's wiki page: http://wiki.drowtales.com/index.php/Balvhakara

It's from a webcomic called Drowtales, which I absolutely reccomend, except it's been running for over ten years and has tons of stuff to get through, and worldbuilding, and it's so freaking huge.

The Balvhakara are a clan of engineers. In the peaceful (until the current Civil War arc) city, they are the only one of the clans to actively prepare for war. Nuqrah is an extremely prosperous city, as the main clan, the Val'Illhar'dro, is a massive trading clan. So there's that.

The Bals make their living off warfare, apparently selling their goods to the clans that do make war, like the Val'Sarghress, the Vel'Sharen, and others. They make war golems (enormous mecha, pretty much) and power armor. I'm not sure of the exact specs of the armor, but it has blades that extend, I'm pretty sure it has mana blasts.

Want me to try and find some comic pages with the armor in it?

Oh by firemagic on 2012-12-19 16:32:00 UTC Reply

This probably wasn't clear - the Bals are from Nuqrah'shareh, a peaceful city, but they probably sell to the clans of Chel'el'Sussoloth (which include the Sarghress and Sharen)
