Belin stared in astonishment at Amron, Findorfin, Carnil, and Derakis. The words of the Barrow-Wight were still ringing through her mind, and the dishwater was still dripping from the hands of Amron. Never above quoting words that had been seriously set forth in hopes of helping, she stood up on the raised hearth and repeated what he had said:

Quote:
Here in the Green Dragon, the idea is not to converse with the other guests, but to graphically describe yourself, your actions, and your surroundings. Kind of like a book.
"We meet here because we are adventures with tales to tell. We meet here because we have a love of writing and we have ourselves to offer to new adventures. We do not meet here to wash dishes, although there are indeed some left. Listen to the speech of others, and learn what you may." She handed out featherdusters, sure that they'd come in handy soon.

She looked around, pausing for everyone's attention. She had an announcement to make, and wanted to make sure that it was heard by all.

"LISTEN!" she cried. "A new Rule has been written! It is now asked that signatures not be included in threads, so please uncheck the "show signature" box when you post in an RPG. Those who read carefully enough to be distracted by the quotes you would otherwise provide will thank you. And you'll still be using them elsewhere, of course."

She stepped down quickly, and moved off toward the stairs, away from the murmuring crowd.
