From the Redwall Wiki Clone, your Redwall news and information resource.

Alright, so I have decided to make some polls in case anyone wants to vote on them. Please do give me your opinion, it will make an effect on my stories.

First off, I'm going to ask for your help on a little thing. I'm doing a ten minute long dramatic reading for my 4H club days in about three weeks, and I intend to do it off FWC. But I can't decide which scene would be best. So here's the poll.

<poll> Which FWC scene or character development is your favorite? Sandingomm fighting Tsarmina!! Roderick's downfall to the evil side! >:D Sayna saving Timbal! (like .. no duh Sayna) Martin and Sayna getting captured way back when in like .. chapter one or something! Ashleg's progression to the good side .. and his terribly sad death! *sniff* I think you should write the Gingivere vs. Tsarmina duel and use that .. it's bound to be epic! Wait .. didn't you say there was going to a magnificent ending? What about that? >XD I have a better scene then any of these in mind .. and you have forgotten to put it the poll Sayna! DX </poll>

Thank you all for voting on that! ^^ It helped me out a lot, and I had a lot of fun preforming what I called Treason. While I didn't get the highest marks (I got a red; the judge was tough on me cause it was my first time and I guess I had to read the script too much XP) I enjoyed doing it and it was a learning experience XD So next year, when I have to do another one (Dun dun dun ... what will I do this time to terrorize the poor judges with originality XP) it'll probably be from TPF, or Accused if I've gotten that far :D *keep your fingers crossed guys .. it actually has a decent chance of happening* *SQUEEE* (I'm so hyperly happy XP)


Now, for the story polls, that actually have effect on the story.

<poll> Who is your favorite marked one? Martin!! (Who else?) Rose! (yeah, she's alive!) Timbal! (cause he's so epic!) Sayna! (you are so vain to put your own name in this poll! :P) </poll>

<poll> Who is your favorite converted vermin? Whegg! (cause he's so loveable!) Groddil! (he is epic. end of story.) Sandingomm! (is epic!) Gingivere! (who else?) Ashleg .. *sniff* Sayna, why you kill him? DX Regina! (she's Ripfang's daughter who's good!) Erwin! (she was epic in the last book at least ..) Estella! (so what if she's minor, I like her anyway!) Rupert! (you so should have used him more!! :'( Sayna, you forgot one of your own characters!! DX </poll>

<poll> Which is/was the best villain? Tsarmina Ferran Fragorl Roderick! D:< Rigvar Ripfang Lotor Brogg Cludd .. (not) Verdauga Lord Malimore (no duh Sayna) You forgot one .. DX </poll>

<poll> What couple is your favorite? MartinXRose (because we all know they should have been one originally) TimbalXSayna WildfireXDancer GingivereXSandingomm WheggXRegina TrubbXLepus (yea .. I've done like .. nothing with that, I know DX) BromeXAmyl (lol) RupertXEstella (yea .. once again, I didn't develop that one. But it's still important for later books) KaylaXSpring (I know, it's only mentioned. But once again, it is important for later books ;) Sayna .. you forgot one of your ships DX </poll>

<poll> What TPF villain (other then Malimore that we have met thus far) should I show more of? Lotor Velox Swartt Rigvar Yaz Xemx Roderick Ferran Clogg You forgot one ... DX </poll>

Sayna is thinking about doing some more illustrations for FWC .. mostly action scenes cause I didn't do enough of them XP So here's a poll on it ;) (if you choose other, tell me what on my wall.) This is just a random project I'm undertaking, and I'll fool around with it for weeks while drawing other stuff (in other words I'll still be drawing TPF stuff and taking requests) XD

How to vote on this poll:

I'll only do one pic at a time, naturally :P So the choice that gets the most votes is the one I'll do first. After I do one, I'll probably choose the next most popular to draw :)

<poll> What scene in 'FWC' would you like to see the most? That totally epic scene when Rose and Martin fought Tsarmina! Just Martin fighting Tsarmina Ferran's hair growing after he gets wounded Ferran vs. Groddil .. (although there will be another scene like this in TPF spoilers) Ferran's escape Rose flying on Emalet The battle at Brockhall Groddil's confession to Lord Boar at Salamandastron Whegg crossing the Moss to escape Tsarmina (like .. in chapter 13 or something) Whegg appearing before the Corim for the first time (when they want to kill him) Roderick's betrayal on the Bloodwake Other </poll>

Here's a random thought. XD It has some history in it too .. and Tsarmina! >:)

<poll> Should I do a Whegg/Regina sidestory of how they met before their appearances in FWC? YES! I love them so much! *cuddles* <3 Yea, that's a good idea. We need to know more about them after you epicly failed with their development as a couple. You should incorporate it into TPF (never mind the fact that's kind of a full slate) XP Ehh .. nah. They weren't my favorite. I hate romance. </poll>


Well since I got positive votes off the bat on that little thought ^^ now I have to name it XD Soooo .. let's vote again, shall we? :)

<poll> What should I title the Whegg and Regina sidestory? Ray of Light Echoes of Hope Start of a Fire Weather the Rain Glowing Embers Firelight Sparks of Hope I have an idea that's better, and I'll post it on your message wall :D </poll>


Here's some interesting ones .. let's see how these come out.

<poll> If I bring back a TPF good vermin in 'Accused' which one should in be? Einar Iona Quinn (ship him with somebody!! :D) Scound (does he count as good ...?) </poll>


<poll> Which reunion would you most like to see? Bluefen and Veil (well .. this one is a given) Thalia and Lilly Kinta and Veil Groddil and Lilly </poll>


<poll> Which Co. member (that you have met) is your favorite so far? Veil (duh) Ivan Fripple Catkin Aubretia Esther Mystiquestar </poll>


A random question, this. But since we've got so many wonderful artists out there, I thought I'd throw this out. (please vote only if you plan on trying to enter, because after all, the artists should be the ones voting on their contest ;P )

<poll> If I was to host an art contest, (in line with my stories) what would you wish it to be of? A new design for Romsca (anything but gold, my old one. After drawing Veil so much I want my next ferret hero to look different XP A design for Emperor Ublaz and his crown What you think a 10+ chariot race in Southsward would look like Skarlath if he was a golden eagle (umm .. spoilers) What you think Veil reunited with Bluefen would look like </poll>


Ok, here's another question. Keep in mind that Sampetra is very Chinese, and the Chinese had gunpowder/rockets/cannons in medieval times (before the crusades)

<poll> Should I go all out and equip the Sampetrain ships with cannons? YES! That would be so AWESOME! XD NO! Sayna, what the crud is going on in that head of yours? X( I like the idea, but am a little dubious about cannons in Redwall. I think that's a bit far .. I have no preference .. do what you like. </poll>


I'm thinking up ships for Kinta, Roseanna, and Ash .. want to help me? :) *hopeful look* kind of debating here .. who's personality goes better with who? Ash's unnamed brother is sort of a .. 'I can do it myself' sort .. maybe somewhat bossy and somewhat lazy .. he's a little too like Roseanna to match up there, I think. They sort of clash, you'll see. In today's world, I can see him with headphones and an iphone, maybe a mohock or spiky dyed hair or something lol. He's kind of a born rebel at first. He's sort of young for Kinta .. so maybe he'd do better with Bryony later on. In fact I'm really thinking Bryonyxhim. but I'll give you the option anyway, that's just my advice there.


<poll> Soooo .... who do you think I should match Kinta up with? Annon Luke Kensly Ash's random brother you have yet to name ..... Gonfflet? </poll>

<poll> So .. what about Roseanna? Kensly Annon Ash's .. um .. random brother ...? Gonfflet .. hmm .. idk </poll>

<poll> And Ash? Annon Luke Kensly Gonfflet </poll>


Ok well the results of the above polls were totally not what I expected, but .. yea. We'll see. I may infuse those results with my own judgment, as I know the characters better, most likely. Somehow I feel Luke needs someone who will understand him better, Ash is overbearing and she would probably totally overrule everything he says. XP Just saying. I lean toward Kinta and Luke, with honesty, Ash needs someone who will stand up to her and not just do whatever she says .. ;P

Ok, next poll coming right up. Here's the question. As I'm sure you know, there could be as little as two chapters left in DmS, soooo I feel like I should think a lot about TViT (don't freak out, I have already, but anyway. As Redwall falls, Xzanthia and Tyre find a horde of there own, beasts who will easily follow them .. so they can kill off all resistance. The Doomwytes ain't gonna work, they've made a pact to never aid fur creatures again (because of the disastrous experience with Lotor the Great) .. something they canonically hold to until they are destroyed in Doomwyte. So here's a couple choices for you.


<poll> Who should Xzanthia employ to help her do Redwall in? The Flitchaye The Painted Ones BOTH! LET'S DO THIS! XD She should try to just do it on her own. Makes things easier for everyone .. though .. less exciting ... </poll>

And ..

<poll> How should she employ them? She tells them there is a marvelous treasure in Redwall and if they kill everyone and do what she says they'll get it. (Xzanthia, you copycat) ;P She promises them they'll get to rule Redwall once she's done, and gives them Martin's sword as down payment. (what? No, he won't notice, he's like .. completely out of it. This would also give Roseanna and Luke the quest to save their father's sword) She hexes them all. Problem solved. (she has that much power? I did not know that ..) She robs the royal treasury and pays them. Simple. She hexes their leader and programs him to do what she says, in turn, his beasts follow. She should do something far more underpawed .. think Sayna, think XP </poll>


Ok next poll coming right up! After all, don't we all love pushing the vote button on these things? It's half the charm right? lol XP Right, here we go.

In Tears of the Ocean, I am faced with this dilemma. The pearls aren't hidden around Redwall .. or are they? Either Romsca steels the pearls when taking Durral and Sayna, or Martin of the second and Co. have to find them and they bring them. However I don't think this is the case, because see, they are the ones that meet up with Grath and help her get a ship, and if they already have the pearls, there can't be an emotional scene where Romsca gives the pearls back and Grath forgives her see? So, I really lean toward Romsca finding them. If so ...

<poll> How and where does Romsca find the pearls? She finds them at skeleton rocks. Duh. She finds them at Saint Ninian's while fighting Sayna for Durral *mahaha* She finds them in Redwall because the Redwallers are peaceful and often bring pirates to dinner (of course jkjk, but I couldn't resist) She finds them somewhere way more creative (enlighten me please) ;) </poll>

Alrighty, and now ..... here we have this one.

Should Conva really be dead? What if Ublaz doesn't actually kill him? Would that be good, or bad? Keep in mind, if he is alive, he will probably be killed in the course of the story. However if he is alive, there is the chance he may turn to Ignasa and repent of his evil, otherwise I'm afraid he went to Hellgates.

<poll> So should Conva be dead or alive? He should be alive! Nope. We saw what you did with Bluefen .... :'( </poll>


Here's something I've considered for a while.

<poll> How do you feel about me trying to adapt 'A Spell Cast' into Graphic Novel form, and see how far I get? YES! Do this! :D Meh .. that'll be interesting. Nah. </poll>


So. How about Ublaz? I don't want him to turn out a villain with the depth of a frozen pizza box. (It's an OYAN thing) *pokes Reep* ;P Anyways. Ublaz needs something to make him a 3D villain. And a good place to start, is a backstory.

Sampetra was discovered and settled by Scound and his crew, and Scound came to Ignasa. He was always a weak follower, but he set up a temple for his Lord, and placed the one pearl in it as a monument. Scound married Aisha and they had children, who also had children and so it goes. They built the fortress to fend off the deadly attacks of the Monitors and Gulls. Now Scound's decedents are the rightful rulers, and as time passes, they set up the taverns and docks and an armada of ships to boot. Of course, things degrade, as always. Ignasa is mostly forgotten, but the pearl and temple are left untouched, for superstitious reasons, and Ignasa becomes known as 'The Unknown Lord'. Well, how does Ublaz fit in? Yes, that's what I'm working on.

He revolts, killing the rightful emperor and claiming he is the 'Unknown Lord's' own messenger and vassal, and because the kings of Sampetra have forgotten who they serve, the lord has proclaimed everybeast in Scound's line must die. What follows is obviously a nasty slaughter, but not all of Scound's line are slain ... Ublaz takes the pearl and puts it in his crown, casting a spell over the Monitors and gulls so they will serve him. Obviously he's a powerful Shadow Fighter, but the question is this. How does Ublaz get to this point, and why does he do it?


<poll> What should Ublaz's backstory be? He started out a cabin boy on one of Scound's decedent's ships, but was mistreated and cheated out of something he (really, really) wanted. He was cheated out of a position by the emperor (like captain) Somebeast he cared about was killed by the emperor One of the emperor's sea captains killed somebeast Ublaz cared about without his boss's consent, but Ublaz blames the emperor Something else? </poll>


So! TotO may seem far away, but it's coming right up. I will not say goodbye to 2015 before the first words are written, in fact, expect it as an early Christmas present. ^^ Here's the deal. My Sampetra is .. different, as always. It's tropical, but an Asian tropical, like with bamboo and orchids and all that. The pirates live in a walled city that is an odd mix of Chinese/Japanese and a little Egyptian here and there (like Hieroglyphs and pillars) but everything is very Asian.

And what am I getting at? I'm getting there. Alright, so it's sort of like Prince Caspian 'You were right to fear the woods' The pirates don't like venturing beyond their walls (though they expand them as needed) but they don't enjoy exploring.

Why? Aha, now that's the fun part. I let on there might be a dragon in TotO .. and you shall not be disappointed. Because, there's monitors right? So we won't meet one dragon, but a tribe of them! :D Now, I'm not talking giant flying HTTYD dragons. These are land-bound and wingless, Chinese dragon looking. Sort of like a scarier form of Mushu. They have long bodies (as long as six/seven feet) and spines, ears, long teeth, short legs, and sharp, long snouts. They walk on four legs. I'm thinking greenish-blue to blend with their surroundings, but maybe gray and green, or there might be differing color patterns. Eyes are normally golden or turquoise.

These are intelligent beasts, they speak a little like the vampire bats. With them are a few Monitors as well, cause I'm thinking these beasts and the monitors once ruled Sampetra. However the monitors fell to cannibalism and total wickedness (well, a lot, but not all) in this manner slowly loosing their intelligence. The monitors that dwell among these creatures talk and think on their own. Some of these dragons also became as the monitors, and when Scound came some feral ones still lived (and are in legends) However while they're nothing to be tangled with, they are slighter and less powerful then the monitors, so the feral ones were slowly killed off by their tougher cousins.

They live in the massive caves that exist in the more mountainous regions of the island, and are not guiltless of preying upon pirates that stray too far from the city, though they are fisherbeasts by nature. Them eating the pirates is like Argulor snacking on his vermin enemies.

Do you like this idea? (this would give the Darkshroud's crew and other heroes better odds in a battle, as Ublaz and his monitors are against them, also Razconza and most of the pirates ..)

<poll> Do you like the idea? Yes! Dragons are epic :D Nah .. I don't like dragons. I'm not sure .. I think it depends on how you do it </poll>


Well *dun dun dun* 4h club days is coming again .. this time in late February. And I'm planning another reading thingy like I did last year. But this year .. there's so many choices! 0.o

So, here's a pool. What do you think would be best?

<poll> What shall I use to bewilder the judges with originality this time? *drumroll* Something funny Something tragic Something action-packed Something from 'Accused' Something from 'Tears of the Ocean' </poll>


Sooooo .. here's a couple more.

About cannons. I didn't do the cannons thing ... but ... how about rockets? Can I use rockets? I'm thinking it's not something the Sampetrians actually have, I think it's an Inbar/Drip discovery. And Grath might help out.

Yea, Inbar's an inventor. Of sorts. They're going to have to be careful not to blow up the Vale of the Dragons, with Drip and friends along. But what might seem as a hap-hazard invention of Inbar's could be very helpful ..

We're talking Asian inspired pirates, it doesn't feel right with no explosives XP

<poll> So shall rockets/something like them be discovered? Yes. No. </poll>


Just for fun :)
