Seven Days of Summer: Last Day for Sign Ups

Seven Days of Summer 2018: Sign Ups

Last Day to Sign Up!!!!!

I’m putting out the challenge like I did for Spring Fling.  There are over 1015 Characters in the Sylum Wiki Blog – take out the ones you know have major storyline or wrapped into major arcs etc… that still leaves about 815 Characters that have no stories written on them.  These characters are all over fandom, and they spread across history – so its a pretty good guess there are a few of you who could tackle story and/or art for these characters.

The main writers of Sylum have a lot on their plates mapping major arcs and stories.  We can’t tackle a majority of characters in other Clans.   So I’m callin’ y’all out.  Take up the challenge – sign up for Seven Days.  Browse the wiki, find someone you’re interested in.

*pokes*

Sylum Inspiration: Enki Sumer

Mod Clan: Member

 

Enki isn’t a Vampire, nor is Human.

He’s a Navigator and from the same planet as Davy Jones and Blackbeard.

He was pulled into their war, when Blackbeard enslaved his mermaids.  He was dragged to Earth, and severely wounded.  He found a safe place, in the Northern Seas, specifically like to stay near Iceland and Norway.

He became more known to Vampires after he met Hiccup and Toothless.  He ended up helping out Noromer, yet hasn’t told him quite yet.  He has a soft spot for him, especially after he faced Davy Jones head on, and won (sort of).

He finally got his mermaids back, after Jack Sparrow tricked Blackbeard back into the locker, leaving them finally free of his influence.

To this day he still prefers the Northerns Seas.  He stops by to see Gran, and talks to the Mariner a lot.  He gets a kick out of Jack Frost, always had and is happy he has his ‘Bunny’.

Search Feature: Sylum Wiki Blog

Wiki Blog Update

When I went to do maintenance on the Wiki Blog, I noticed that search queries were not pulling up any findings!  Despite the fact we all know, there is enough Michael’s and Sam’s to pull up at least 5 bios!!

It took some time, but was able to locate the problem and fix it.

If you were searching for anything on the Blog the past few days, and didn’t find anything – this would be why.  Feel free to try your searches again.

If some of you don’t mind, could you test the search function to make sure it is actually working and reply to this post … that would be great!

World Migratory Bird Day

 

What is World Migratory Bird Day?

I had no idea until I ran across this.

World Migratory Bird Day is a conservation initiative that brings awareness on conserving migratory birds and their habitats throughout the Western Hemisphere. This program is dedicated to international conservation efforts and environmental education in Canada, the United States, Mexico, Central and South America, and the Caribbean. Originated by the Smithsonian Migratory Bird Center, it is now coordinated by Environment for the Americas.

Why are we posting it?

A) This is kinda awesome!

B) We’ve been trying to showcase new and unique Holidays/International Events

C) Nico would be all over this due to his own affinity to Birds

Sylum Inspiration: Diana Prince

 

Diana isn’t a Vampire.  She is from the Asgardian Realm, specifically Themyscira.  She was raised by her mother, Hippolyta and her aunt General Antiope.  Diana became one of the fieriest fighters and trained diplomat.

Though she always felt as if she was missing something or meant for more.

Then suddenly through the biofrost, a bi-plane crashed into the ocean.  Without hesitation she dived into the waters and saved the pilot.  She learned about Earth, and the war to end all worlds.

She knew she had to go back with Steve Trevor to help.  She felt as if this was her calling.

Diana went back with Steve, and followed him to the front to try and stop Ludendorff from destroying the Armistice.  Instead she ended up facing off with Sir Patrick Morgan, who was playing both sides to the middle.

To discover, he was one of Loki’s.

In the mist of fighting him, she watched in horror as Steve Trevor’s plane was destroyed – she then understood his comment ‘I’ll save the Day – You save the world’.

She then finally understood human love and loss.

After destroying Morgan, she returned back to London with Steve’s friends, determined to stay with the humans, fight for them.  For love.

A month later she ended up confronting Jacob Frye and John Rhys, who had a message for her.  She traveled with them to Egypt, where she discovered Steve was still alive.

They explained about Vampires and Clans, and that Steve had been Turned.  He explained she was his Mate, but do to her physiology couldn’t be Turned.  But also because of her physiology she was merely immortal on Earth.

They both ended up staying with the Medjai, working with Henenu aka Henry Jekyll.

Her fondest memory is taking Steven back to Themyscira, where he was trained to fight with her.  Even Antiope had given him some admiration even if it was grudgingly.

Today they live between Paris, where Diana works at the Lourve, and Cairo.  Steve plays her assistant, hiding his spying easily.
