Standing Trials would not be where it is today without the fantastic efforts made by every single one of our Prophets.
Rumour,
Pegasus,
Maltruism,
Jade, and
Kingdom have worked with enthusiasm on every project that they have been a part of.
Although Standing Trials has been created by many creative and collaborative minds, the following four nominees have spent a gracious amount of time developing.
Jade,
Kingdom,
Rumour, and
Pegasus have been able to lend a great deal of time to development projects over the course of the last year.
With every story comes the pair that everyone watches and cares for.
Faith/
Padraig,
Malyna (
Malcolm/
Elyna),
Grabine (
Sabine/
Gray), and
Tristan/
Faith were nominated as the pairs to follow. With some together, others not, and tension everywhere, everyone will continue to follow their stories to see where they end up!
We can all agree that, here at Standing Trials, we are fortunate in that we have a whole range of meritorious storytellers. This year our players have nominated
Tristan,
Malcolm,
Faith, and
Elyna for storyteller of the year. They are writing the stories we love to read and, just like every player on the site, are adding to the rich and wonderful world of Idalos.
Every story needs a character that charges senselessly into battle, overcomes all obstacles, and wins the hearts of the readers.
Vincent,
Malcolm,
Aeon, and
Faith have all been proclaimed as 'heros' at one point or another. Whether it be fighting a demon or cooking a meal for the King, we all secretly hope that these characters will come out on top.
With every hero, there must be a villain to defeat.
Zvezdana,
Yanahalqah,
Alistair, and
Peake are all characters that we love to hate. Some may sympathize with their cause while others down right want to see justice served. These characters bring the opposite aspect to the story, adding an antagonist to the many protagonists on Standing Trials.
Ooo la la. No story would be complete without a little eye candy to enjoy.
Patrick,
Kylar,
Malcolm, and
Wendell have a way of making the players pant and desire more. Although we at Standing Trials are in it for the story, we all have to admit that these characters are easy on the eyes and a pleasure to read!
Standing Trials have 15 developed and unique races that players can choose from. From the highly intelligent Eídisi to the underwater Mer, every player has access to special attributes that are only accessible to their race. Nominees for the Racial Exemplar portray their race in a way that represents their race the best.
Kylar (Lotharro),
Vluharqih (Yludih),
Niv (Tunäwä), and
Nir'wei (Sev'ryn) were all nominated for their abilities to play one of our unique races.
