Allan Quatermain doesn’t talk much about his life before he set foot in Africa. He won’t even mention his real name.
What he will tell you, is this: Some strange little Shaman looked at him, yelled out some weird words, wiped paint across his cheeks and forehead and told him, ‘You have the Spirit of Africa in you. As long as you stay on her soil you will be immortal.’
Two days later the tribe he was with were attacked, and he was Turned by Anok Sabe.
So yes we’re moving.
The next two months will be hectic and chaotic.
Posts have been prepped way in advance, hopefully nothing will go off the rails *crosses fingers*. If need to get a hold of me – email: sylumclan@yahoo.com … but note it could take time for me to get back to you.
There will be times I’m not able to access the blog or site. So be patient if something does happen, I’ll work to get things fixed as quickly as possible.
At the moment – Sylum Vault is closed and we’ll make announcement when it reopens, likely in October.
Most importantly the bunnies have been packed and organized, hopefully they won’t get lost on the way to their new den.
Wish us luck and see you on the flip side.
It can’t be that time already?
But it is?
Okay guys, I’m asking all those who have always wanted to do something for Advent to sign up! Even if it’s for an art piece, or an aesthetic, or a small timestamp. Sign up!
There’s a lot of characters to work with – so browse the Wiki and give Advent a try.
Sylum Advent is our Annual Winter Event. It will start on December 1st and go through to New Years Day, January 1st.
You will need to sign up and state what your interested in doing.
Reminder: If you would like to work on a Sylum story, you will need to contact me with your idea, and I will have to see a draft ahead of time to make edits or notes. It’s best if you focus on stories that aren’t attached to main characters being used in Arcs or stories by other authors.
If you’re interested in doing a Sylum Story contact me: sylumclan@yahoo.com

Okay so tomorrow is August … seriously time has either been the slowest I’ve seen or moving at warp speed!
So check in. How is everyone doing!
It’s hard to believe we’ve hit 15 Years! I’m not even sure where the time has gone.
The fact that Sylum is still going, and has so many plans for the future is awe inspiring.
I think all of you for being here, supporting Sylum through the years, who knew we were going to include pandemic in that category.
As you know we do a lot to maintain Sylum, and on occasions ask for help to keep the servers up and running.
The servers hold the blog, wiki, and archive, which are supported by Dreamhost. It costs $150 a year to keep up with all the hosting fees. If you can please donate directly to Dreamhost – all donations go directly to the hosting service and we do not see any of the money.
If you would like to help support me directly you can always stop by Sylum Vault (though we’ll be closing on the 1st to prep for our move … though reopening in October). Get some beautiful bling, bookmarks, greeting cards, and other accessories!
As always your contributions are greatly appreciated.

Hilary was the 2nd soon of the Lord Bray Family. He was destined to marry Margaret, the oldest daughter of another high ranking family, who was considered a good match but difficult.
The two weren’t each others love of their lives, but they cared for each other dearly.
Margaret gave him 3 sons, only James survived into adulthood.
Hilary’s true love was the young servant girl, who had born him a daughter, who he made sure married into a good family from Scotland, the Bonds.
He was approached by Lamont who was recruiting him to the Vampire Council, said he had skills that would suit them.
Hilary laughed and said he should recruit his wife, M.
Little did he know, Lamont would do that and Turned them both.
