Pirate Appreciation Day / Sylum Events1

Last Day: Ask A Pirate!!

As we’re prepping for Pirate Appreciation Day on September 19th, we’re looking for question for our resident Pirates!

Okay guys!! Seriously do I need to start keelhauling?!

Do you really want pouty Pirates, because no one had questions??  We’ve got 11 Pirates … ELEVEN!  There must be more questions than the few we’ve gotten.

So who exactly are our resident Pirates?

Captain Jack Sparrow (The one and only)

William Turner

Joshamee Gibbs

Captain Hector Barbossa (Technically)

Ragetti

Pintel

Captain Warrick Calhoun (Pirate!)

Jim Brass

Captain Edward Kenway (Fights like a Devil dressed like a Man)

Samuel Axe

So please send the Vampire Gazette your questions and we’ll herd the Pirates (be something akin to herding cats) together to have a panel discussion to answer your questions.

Character Introduction / Sylum Clan0

Sylum Inspiration: John Constantine

Sylum: Hunter

***

So you’re thinking … wait he’s not in Passion Kin Clan.

No he’s not … but Passion is a small Clan and we’re all out of Hunters.

So here’s a random one 🙂

***

John grew up in California with a very Catholic mother.  He never asked where his father was, knowing it would upset her to talk about it.  He learned later in life that he had disappeared when John was very young.  There were rumors of gambling debts, entanglements with the mob, and that he ran off with his secretary.

As a young man he was called to the Priesthood, and went through the eight years of Seminary only to start getting doubts months before he was to be Ordained.  His Confessor suggested he take a pilgrimage to the Vatican.

Constantine knelt in front of La Pietà and prayed for guidance.  When he stood up, he came face to face with Andrew Kiernan.  The two men talked for days, ending with John leaving Seminary and following his true calling.  He studied with Keirnan in The Congregation for the Causes of Saints, and spent the next decade traveling the world, studying miracles and holy relics.

He returned to Los Angeles at the news of the death of his mother.  Settling back into the city, he started a Private Investigator business, where he took a few odd jobs, but still his focus was on the work sent to him by Kiernan.  While investigating a missing person, he stumbled upon Balthazar and his ‘brides’.  As the investigation progressed he got pulled into Balthazar’s schemes.  As he tried to escape, he was Turned without Consent.

Sylum Advent 2017: Sign Ups

 

I’m sending out that call once again.

There are many things that you can do: fic, art, fanmixs, aesthetics … the options are endless.  Just sign up, and we can chat about what you want to do.

There are over a 1000 characters in the Sylum Wiki – there are many that don’t have storyline and have a bare minimum in their history.   Scroll through the Wiki – pick someone and lets figure something out.

What is Sylum Advent? 

Sylum Advent s is our Annual Winter Event.  It will start on December 1st and go through to New Years Day, January 1st.  It usually focused on Sylum Stories, but we also accept Sylum Art, fanmix, aesthetics, and videos.

REMINDER:  All Sylum Stories will need to be approved by Bj Jones – It’s not difficult to work with me for storyline.   I’ll be honest 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 Bj (sylumclan@yahoo.com).

Take out characters being used in major story – there are over 800 characters to choose from!!
