These are improtant things that've happened and will happen, significances, and other crazy tidbits.
- "The Beginning" - On the day Sirius was born, the weather was very peculiar in many places. (chngd:12-12-01)
- "The Beast Within" - Sirius and others encounter a chimera for the first time (around the end of book).
- "Return to Dust" - (around the end of book).
- "Imminent" - .
- "A Change of Season" - . 12/13/01
- "Now and Then, Here and There" - .
- Dark magic is highly illegal (I wonder why) and use of it is severly penalized.
- Causing things to cease to exist is prohibited (killing is also illegal of course). The reason is: trying to unmake things will inevitiably cause the spell caster to erase themselves from existance. The differnece is a person can die, but the matter of their bodies will still be there.
- Mindshift, Alteration, Killing Curse(s), and using them to goad someone into doing something. These are really only done by Dark wizards, so a long explanation isn't really nessecary.
- Sorcerers can affect/effect weather. However, it's *very* isolated when they do. It is localized around the spellcaster with a radius of about 10 feet any given direction.
- transition, metathesis, transfiguration
- 12/2002In the year since I [officially] initiated this project, I have done a very scant amount of real world structuring. It's been mostly character creation (which is sill very tentative) and anything else that came to mind.
- 12/2002 Now that the nrew site layout is completed I'm messing around with new color schemes. The one I am using on the main page will probably carry over to all the others over time.
- 10/2002 Most of the site is currently being restuctured, though the other version will probably rememain as the new on works only in MSIE.
They go on to state clearly: "Strategically, U.S. foreign policy ought to proceed on the premise that while Russia may be down, it is not out: Sooner or later, Russia will again be a great power. We should not yield to the temptation to exploit its short-term weakness at the expense of reaping its enduring enmity, for if we do, then history indicates that our children will pay the price.".
- 11/2002 This whole project spwaned itself from something I was working on a while back that I called just 'Runes.' Since then the name has stuck though it doesn't nessesarily apply to anything.
- 06/2001 This project has been ongoing, but I decided it was finally time for me to back it up online. None I have two versions in case something random and exceedingly bad happens.
