So remember the 6 Characters in 6 Weeks?
Yeah it was actually 7 … but this asshole wasn’t supposed to arrive this early.
*sigh*
*eyeroll*
He’s known as The Counselor
For those paying attention this was the Bob how dare you a week before Advent Ranting!
Aladdin wasn’t a street rat nor a thief. He’s also not the Aladdin from the stories. He was named after them or so he states.
He’s the youngest son of the Captain of the guards. And it was obvious since he was a child he wasn’t going to be a Medjai warrior. His father sent him to the Clan, to help work in the library, as he knew his boy was smart and quickly figured things out once shown.
It was here he met Jafar, who cursed at him then fled the room. Aladdin wouldn’t see him for another twenty-years.
By that time he figured out the whole Vampire, Mate situation.
(Reminder: At the moment the wiki is down for Maintenance)
This will be the last of the Sylum Location Posts … as next month’s Calendar will be a new series.

What would y’all be interested in seeing on Sundays in the coming year!
While leading up to Advent, there are updates that need to be done on the Wiki.
Enough updates, that we need to shut it down for Maintenance.
So from this moment the Sylum Wiki Blog is Closed for Update.
It will Re-Open at Advent!!
Black Friday?
Who’s out shopping?
Who’s asleep because they were already been shopping?
Dude I’m still recovering from a food coma!

Author’s Note: Coming during Advent the full re work of all the Pirate stories ….
We’ve had discussions on this before.
I’ve written similar essays on our Modern Sensibilities.
And as we approach Advent, along with the next chapter of Clan War, I thought it would be a good time to remind people of one of Sylum’s basic things.
We don’t do individual story Warnings.
We never have.
We never will.
Sylum has one basic Warning …
Any and all Sylum Stories can and will have the following:
graphic violence, graphic sex (slash & het), torture, character death, abuse (mental, sexual, & physical), incest, rape, non-con, appropriate language for time periods (aka: derogatory terms & names), underage sex, kinks … the list goes on.
As writers, our job is to tell a story. Tell the best story that we can. We don’t shy away from controversial subjects, nor do we whitewash history. Our job is not to hold the readers’ hand, or make sure they always comfortable.
This may sound harsh but it’s true.
You don’t always have to like it.
You don’t always have to read it.
Hell, I’m sure that at some point you will feel uncomfortable while reading this vast multiple character universe, as it does incorporate everything.
We work to be as historically accurate as we can, and as we know already, history is not always pretty.
We will explore sexuality in all of its assorted shapes and sizes – from simple pleasures to all styles of kinks, with everything in between.
We don’t shy away from religion of any type, and show the good, the bad, and the very ugly.
There are times we’ll dive into the degradation of society, and the horrific crimes that are committed.
We get that there are moments, places, and things that will upset people. It’s not our intent to purposely upset someone, but it’s not our job to make sure we don’t upset you either.
So on that note.
Advent is coming up … we have 32 days of fics, artworks and videos coming your way.
Enjoy.

In Greek mythology, Iolaus was a Theban divine hero, son of Iphicles and Automedusa.
He was famed for being Heracles’s nephew and for helping with some of his Labors, and also for being one of the Argonauts. Through his daughter Leipephilene, he was considered to have fathered the mythic and historic line of the kings of Corinth, ending with Telestes.
This is the tales and the Legends.
For More information contact the Vampire Council Library
Iolaus is the nephew of Hercules, just down a few generational lines.
He was raised in Thebes and was a great warrior, married with a family. He had no intentions of being anything other than a good husband, father, and soldier.
But the gods had other ideas, and while journeying home with fellow soldiers, they came across a village being attacked by outsiders. Without hesitation all of them ran into battle, not realizing they were facing far greater powers.
Iolaus was the last one standing.
He swore before he blacked out he saw a large white bird and two men swarmed into battle.
