Seven Days of Summer 2018: Sign Ups

 

Seven Days of Summer 2018: Sign Ups

 

It’s that time of year again!!

We’re taking sign ups for this years Seven Days of Summer.

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*

What is Seven Days? 

Seven Days is our Annual Summer Event.  We accept Sylum Art, fanmixs, videos and stories.  It’s not uncommon to see stories that are set up for future fics or Timestamps that relate to stories from Advent.

REMINDER:  All Sylum Stories will need to be approved by Bj Jones.  If you’re interested in doing a Sylum Story contact Bj (sylumclan@yahoo.com).  DO NOT write the story then send it, this makes the General very cranky.

Character Introduction / Sylum Clan0

Sylum Inspiration: Jupiter Twins

Sylum: Hunter

Laura & Lily Jupiter lost their father when they were four years old.  They don’t remember much, but knew their mom cried a lot, until Riddick came into their lives and helped where he could.

They knew something happened to their Uncle Riddick, he was gruffer and more reserved after the nice blonde man had died.

He came in and out of their lives, always making sure mom and them were taken care of.  After mom died, he stayed in New York intent to find them good husbands.  They disagreed.

He took them back to New Orleans and handed them over to Queen Moussette so they could finish their education and be proper ladies.  He had no idea she was also teaching them how to fight, bringing in the warrior he saw roaming New Orleans a few times that only talks to Nico.

They finally approached him and informed they both wanted to be Turned.

He really couldn’t say no.

Sylum: Hunter

Sylum Information: Vaako (who was barely saved)

 

Vaako.

Okay so here’s the thing.  You can all thank Taibhrigh for him being saved.  The original storyline that was given to me by persons long ago – wasn’t really working and so the best option I had was to kill them off in Family.

Taibhrigh was like can we figure something out for poor Vaako??

So this is how he got removed, updated/changed and combined with Cooper from RED.

So for Vaako fans – thank our Resident Artist for this save.

Sylum Information1

Note from General: Update in Real Life

Okay this is an announcement from The General.

Real Life has been in a major upheaval for a while now.   And do to some of the changes that have taken place, I’ve lost some of the time I spent on Sylum.  This includes writing, blog work, and updates.

Before you panic! I’m still working on new stories and updating older ones – it’s just slowing down slightly.

And if you see some holes in the schedules for the blog, it would because I just couldn’t get it that week.

Plus it’s likely the Afternoon Fic is the first thing to be hit the hardest … I’m not stopping it entirely, it will just be way more sporadic.

Sylum is still running strong.  We’ve got new items for the shop!  If you didn’t check out yesterday’s Bookmark Event for World Book Day – there’s still a chance today!!  We’re also  prepping for 7 Days of Summer (hing: Russian Spy is up to 40pgs … just sayin’) along with the next ‘Appreciation Event’ – Fassbender Fortnight.

And we always prepping for Advent.

So please be patient.  And if you would like to participate in Sylum Events like: 7 Days of Summer or Advent – sign up!  The less spaces I have to fill means I can work longer on bigger stories.

Sylum Inspiration: Siberius Vaako

Sanguen Vitae: Lead Hunter

Vaako was a dedicated Roman Soldier, who followed his General Marcus Antonius throughout his career, and even helped him get out of Rome and back to Egypt after Caesar was killed.  He stayed by his side, despite the need to smack the crap out of him.

When Marc was Turned and escorted out of Egypt.

He followed.

Once Marc was Mated.

He followed.

Until Marc finally got the idea and Turned him.
