Lady ophelia is the leader and mouthpiece of Yggdrasil, which has been in a conflict for the past few weeks with doncey's Path of Englightenment (or PoE). Ygg has also been joined by the Republic of Ravenblack for the scuffle.
Earlier, I spoke to Lady ophelia about tactics, post-war sex, and a little purple buddy of mine.
Coquette D'dary: *jingles lightly* Miss Ophelia?
ophelia: Hello there Lady
ophelia: *grins and tries not to stab* How fares thee this lovely evening?
Coquette D'dary: Hello. I was wondering if I could bother you to do a slight itty bitty teensy weensy interview for the Sports (War) section of the new newspaper Bite? It would be one of our first articles and we're trying to get a good issue for our big reveal.
Coquette D'dary: And I fare.. pretty damn awesome. *smiles* I adopted my first childer just moments ago.
ophelia: Bite?
ophelia: Oooh..and congratulations!!!
ophelia: That's always so exciting *grins*
Coquette D'dary: Yes. The RavenBlack Bite. It's brand new off the presses, not yet revealed. We promote free speech and unbiased reporting, since, well, we hate everyone equally. We're also going to be hosting a variety of soapboxes for the public, since certain other news sources don't allow their readers to sound back. *beams* We're trying to get all of our sections filled, and for Sports, I couldn't think of anything more interesting going on than your current war.
Coquette D'dary: The Bite is also the City's first online newspaper, although we plan to drop off printed copy at RavenBlack City Hall every Sunday for those vampires who don't have computers or an internet connection. We're trying to help usher the City into the 21st century without discriminating against any readers.
ophelia: LOL
ophelia: That sounds quite interesting
ophelia: you realize though I am probably the crappiest vampire EVER in interview thinger things
ophelia: ?
Coquette D'dary: Heh, crappy or not, you're in the know and I am not. Besides, the Bite is fun. The interview could head into the direction of talking about banana peels, for all our readers care. Why? Well, 'cause.. we have no readers yet.
ophelia: *snickers*
ophelia: all right
Coquette D'dary: I do have some questions, but after that, it'll be a free-for-all. *waves around a sheet of paper*
ophelia: ~looks shifty and lets loose an EFB~
ophelia: shoot.
Coquette D'dary: *eyes the EFB, noting the immense resemblence between it and her sire* So anyway... For the record (and spelling purposes) which clan are you leading?
ophelia: Yggdrasil
Coquette D'dary: Would you like to offer any clan history?
ophelia: Well, we started about two years ago. Worked with Seraphin for a bit before they bailed on their help and we walked away. We stepped into the war with TiC and umm...long story but great fun. We don't particularly discuss ourselves though. That first rule and all *nod*
Coquette D'dary: *nods* It's like Fight Club, but with better looking people.
Coquette D'dary: *taps the fuzzy pink pen against her lips* What are the current statistics for the war? How many have your clan killed, and have they even killed any?
Coquette D'dary: They being "the others".
ophelia: Well, 26 in the first volley in less than a week
ophelia: Two more this evening
ophelia: and no, they've not 0'd any of us
Coquette D'dary: *frowns* Why do you think they haven't managed to rack up any kills?
ophelia: Because they've stepped into the shit?
ophelia: Some of them are fierce, and with the right assistance will make fine warriors
ophelia: but I don't think they have the proper direction warriors need
Coquette D'dary: Hm. What's ophelia's recipe for "proper direction"?
ophelia: There isn't really a recipe. The first bit is you can't let ego rule you. If you are leading a family or a clan into battle, it can't be because you've had your pride stomped. One can never think of self first. Training. Preparation. Order.
Coquette D'dary: *nods slowly, grinning* Sounds tasty. Got any nuts in it?
ophelia: *snickers*
Coquette D'dary: Alrighty, hm.. *checks down at her paper* Rumor has it the leaders of RoR are telling their zeroed clanmates not to take torpor. What are your thoughts on this, both as an "enemy" and as a clan leader?
ophelia: RoR?
Coquette D'dary: Erm. Wow. That was a bad typo.
Coquette D'dary: *slips a martini behind her back and whistles*
Coquette D'dary: I was not drinking. I did not have a drink today. I can recite the alphabet backwards while walking a straight line. Z, Y, X...
ophelia: hahhahhaha
Coquette D'dary: We'll try this again. Rumor has it the leaders of PoE are telling their zeroed clanmates not to take torpor. What are your thoughts on this, both as an "enemy" and as a clan leader? *sneaks a quick sip of the martini and looks around*
ophelia: Well, I don't know that I can confirm the rumor but were it indeed documented fact *thinks*
ophelia: As an enemy, as a clan leader, as just a citizen of RavenBlack, I find it...revolting
ophelia: if one never rests, great. Perogative and what not and everyone should be on the same page so they can make their choices
ophelia: but to go from properly resting vampires
ophelia: to simply pissing away their integrity honor and any dignity they have fighting in a battle is just...I would pity anyone that takes that kind of turn in the middle of a fight.
Coquette D'dary: *nods* Besides the torpor changes, have you observed any other tactics executed by... *checks the paper and sounds the letters out this time* Pee Oh Ee that you would like to comment on?
ophelia: Well....psyco219 and master219 are one and the same
ophelia: master threw weapons
ophelia: but psyco was always oddly in the middle of things
ophelia: unfortunately he too was hit a few times, but one should not use themselves for succor or anything else in battle..it paints everyone in a poor light
ophelia: This evening, and I've addressed it with someone, a student used a servant ~from PoE~ to attack
ophelia: Its frustrating when you're trying to run a clean war to discover these small things
Coquette D'dary: *nods* It sounds frustrating, as it seemed the conflict started out as a relatively clean fight. Am I correct?
ophelia: Of course it did.
ophelia: I cant speak for the others, but I know our crews always try to maintain clean fighting. War is something to find pleasure in, not something to muddy up with utter bullshit
Coquette D'dary: That's admirable. Speaking of clean fighting.. What do you think has made your clan successful in this war?
ophelia: As the beautiful nitenurse has said to me, such dirty tactics suggest desperation.
ophelia: Hmmm
ophelia: Training and experience. Age. Not throwing our own to the wolves if they aren't adequately prepared. Patience. I can't honestly say. What might make one successful one day could cause them to stumble another yanno
ophelia: I always sound like I have a stick up my arse...*huffs*
ophelia: *beats a stranger with a stick*
Coquette D'dary: Hey, if it's a good sized stick, that might be kinda pleasant.
ophelia: Ewww
ophelia: If it's not attached to my husband..just...ewww
ophelia: ><
ophelia: *gets dreamy eyed* you know, post battle hoochie kooo is so divine *clears throat* anyhow
Coquette D'dary: Oh, it certainly is.. I got a few nights before dear sweet Chaos took his dirt nap.. *eyes glaze over*
ophelia: Amen sister
Coquette D'dary: Mmm. Gonna have to beat his ass awake soon. Although, it doesn't -always- have to be attached to the husband. I made a nice plaster mold of him while he was sleeping.. and now I have a little purple best friend!
ophelia: hahhahahha
ophelia: Clone A Willy!!!!
Coquette D'dary: Heck yes. It helps during those unfortunate comatose times.
Coquette D'dary: But back to the war! *glances around and reads from the paper* Are there any outstanding clanmates you'd like to put the spotlight on, anyone had any remarkable kills?
ophelia: They are ALL to be comended
ophelia: Both from RoR and Yggdrasil...each of them has contributed their skill time and efforts. I hope they all know how thankful I am to all of them~nod~
Coquette D'dary: Awwwh. We should send them statues of little golden bald men.. *nods*
ophelia: *cackles*
Coquette D'dary: So, besides to the victory circle, where do you see your clan going post-war?
ophelia: Ahh and that would delve into rule number one *grins*
Coquette D'dary: Oh, yes, it would. Hmm. Could this reporter possibly find out if it involves community showers? >.>
Coquette D'dary: After all, that's what they do in the human football league, I hear.
ophelia: *grins and refers you to rule number one again* I prefer hockey myself *swoons* all that body checking and what not
Coquette D'dary: Oh, yes. Go Red Wings! *waves a foam finger* Well, then.. since rule number one seems to keep foiling my sluething abilities... Are there any other comments you'd like to make about the battle, clan, family, or simply just to proclaim yourself awesome?
ophelia: If anyone proclaims themselves awesome they might need to be slapped. There's always someone out there looking better. All I can say is I'm proud of all of them. And thankful. it may be a human sentiment but appreciation is necessary as often as possible
ophelia: In short
ophelia: they
ophelia: RICK
Coquette D'dary: *grins* That's a new one.
ophelia: I should prolly tell you that the leader and 2iC of RoR are married. They enjoy those shower things together *tries not to gouge her own eyes out*
ophelia: It IS!
ophelia: *whispers* its a part of mah new language it is
Coquette D'dary: I should try ricking one of these days. I bet it would make me popular and then I would have friends.
ophelia: Ricking is so much better than rocking *nod*
Coquette D'dary: And then I wouldn't spend so much time with my little purple buddy... >.>
ophelia: You should name it
ophelia: and bring it to social functions
ophelia: and give it a voice
ophelia: *nod*
Coquette D'dary: I have named it. I call him Jim Bob Mattalio.
ophelia: "Jim Bob Mattalio has whacked you in the head"
ophelia: that's kind of snazzy
Coquette D'dary: Yeah, I thought so. He's got lots of zest, so he needed a nice strong name.
Coquette D'dary: *taps her fuzzy pink pen against her paper and hums* I think I've got a lot of wonderful information. *beams* I'll stop assaulting your personal space now, methinks, and get this article to copy right quick. Do you have an internet connection to where I might be able to write down the link for you, or should I slip you an advance copy of the paper?
ophelia: Certainly!
Coquette D'dary: Alrighty. *scribbles on the paper and holds it out (http://theravenblackbite.proboards83.com/index.cgi)* The article will need to be run past editing before it's up, but it should only be a few minutes. I'm definitely appreciative that you spent your time talking to little old me. *ruffles through her bag, pulling out a red stress ball shaped like an apple with little white foam fangs* A free gift, on behalf of Bite.
ophelia: Is this paper..I mean should it be kept private?
Coquette D'dary: It's not been revealed yet, but it's slowly leaking to people by word of mouth. We'll be advertising soon, but for now, if you wanna tell a few friends, it'd be great!
There it is, folks, an interview with the most lovely and extremely entertaining woman. I didn't know her very well before doing this interview, but I must say I look forward to speaking more with her as Bite! expands.
