~~~~~~~~ A find from the Imperial ship sunk last evening. [voraciousTreasure has uploaded a photo!] [A photo is uploaded. An imperial ship rests on the ocean floor, broken into several pieces. Several corpses drift about the shipwreck, mostly skeletal; the bones have been eaten clean, all of the ribcages broken open in a very specific way. The Physalia holds a delicate necklace up to the camera in a long-fingered, elegant hand, their fingertips and claws stained dark. The necklace consists of twenty small pearls, each one intricately carved with swirling designs. It may just be the blood clouding thro...Read more

~~~~~~~~ A piece of tonight's find. [voraciousTreasure uploaded a photo!] ((A photo taken underwater. The Physalia's left hand can be seen holding an elaborate bone brooch in their long, viciously sharp claws. The brooch is set with pearls and carved with the image of a sailing ship on the waves, two tiny gems marking out the two moons above the ship. Their fingertips and claws are stained dark; in the background, an empty, bloodied ribcage floats in the water, cracked open.))

~~~~~~~~ A grand feast for an important night. This proved an immensely enjoyable anniversary indeed. [voraciousTreasure has uploaded a photo!] ((An impossibly tall stone spire rises through choppy waves and looms above, reaching up and up and up until the perspective pierces it through the pink moon, shining in full, the pink-tinged stormclouds breaking around it. A small cave yawns at the base of the spire. The cave, the rocks surrounding the spire, and the surface of the ocean itself are covered in the remains of a large number of highbloods, predominantly purple and violet. The Physalia holds an ...Read more

~~~~~~~~ I was briefly interrupted whilst retrieving an artifact, but at least it provided a decent meal, and one I barely had to hunt. [voraciousTreasure uploaded a photo!] ((It shows the bow of a sunken ship rising from the silt of the ocean floor, the freshly broken body of a purpleblooded troll drifting near the curve of the hull. The corpse is mostly wet bone and some shreds of flesh and tendons in the vague shape of a troll; a small shoal of fish have already gathered to pick at the remains. The horns are tall and hooked. The edge of what could be a violet-hued fin can be seen in the bottom corn...Read more

~~~~~~~~ Good dusk. Remember that you cannot tread water indefinitely. Once you tire -- and you will -- drowning quickly will be your best hope. ((#death))

~~~~~~~~ I was interrupted tonight as I went through an early-Condescension Era shipwreck. I can only assume the pirates thought themselves immune to my tendencies, given the foolishness of the first few upon noticing me. I enjoyed my meal today, despite the lack of a true hunt; they delivered themselves into my claws. [voraciousTreasure has uploaded a video!] ((It lasts only a few seconds; in a cabin of a submerged wreck, the camera shows a section of an immensely old tapestry done entirely in metal. The Physalia's hand reaches to gently nudge a metal ring with the edge of a claw. Some grainy silt disl...Read more

~~~~~~~~ ((OOC: TL:DR and info at the bottom!)) Let me tell you a story. Long ago for all but the eldest of trolls, there was a collector. His name does not matter. His bloodline does not matter. His caste matters only for it lent him undeserved power. He used that power to gather a great many things that took his fancy; jewellery, relics both fabled and not, beautiful things, powerful things, curiosities of all kinds. One night, whilst the pink moon was full, he decided to follow a tale he had heard of a hidden hoard of treasure. He cared not for the curse said to have been laid in protection. He ...Read more

~~~~~~~~ The night has been a very busy one. Travel and organisation. A lot of sorting through the remains of these ships. One of them had several chests of liberated old coins -- the first ones issued for Her Condescension. The wreckage also had a rather foolish scavenger. [voraciousTreasure has uploaded a photo!] ((The Physalia holds an ancient Alternian caegar carefully between two claws. The coin is stamped with a date and the visage of a younger version of the Empress. The corpse of a troll can be seen drifting in the background, more skeleton than anything else; the remaining flesh looks to have b...Read more

~~~~~~~~ The 'intrepid explorer' who broke into my current abode was delicious, by the way. It's quite impressive how well they could beg whilst paralysed. Unfortunately, they didn't have anything of any worth to me on them. #cannibalism #suggestive #death

~~~~~~~~ There were a group of idiots going cliff-diving. I only fully ate two of the five; the other three were on drugs of some kind and left a bad aftertaste. Ah well. The two untainted ones were delicious, though, so I'm glad I saved the majority of one to eat once I'd sampled the others. Also, one of them had a very nice gold necklace! A pleasant surprise. #gore #death #substances #cannibalism

~~~~~~~~ An attempt was made, but a glaive just isn't going to work. I found something quite nice in my old haunt! I also found a tasty meal, but I was expecting that. [voraciousTreasure has uploaded a photo!] ((It is a photo of an interior room in a submerged shipwreck. It appears to have been repurposed into a respiteblock; there is a 'cupe and some scattered clutter befitting a young troll, such as waterproof FLARP manuals and game grubs. The blueish-green water has clouds of violet blood billowing through it. The source of the blood is presumably the eviscerated troll floating near the ceiling at th...Read more
