Noble Phantasm Chronicle: The First Edition

[Otium]

Noble Phantasm Chronicle

After some weeks of hard work, our first edition of the newspaper is finally out. From now on, every month, we'll be publishing new content that goes from Aion related articles to personal thoughts or art. It's open not only for all Noble Phantasm members but also for the entire Aionsource community from which the Legion was born. Feel free to read it and leave your comments and suggestion here or at our forum. Hope you enjoy reading as much as we did making it.

Noble Phantasm Chronicle


May articles:

- Lore of Aion - Aion official information by Syani's own words.

- Our History - understand the origins and past of Noble Phantasm. A wonderful article written by our leader, Kattrina.

- Look Who's Talking - an interview with Aionsource's administrator, Mark.

- Crafting in Aion - Murakumi grabbed all the information and packed it in this article. If you want to know more about crafting, make sure you read it.

Damnit, I lost money because of you. We had a bet going on to see who would start posting their own newspaper first
My bet was on Renegade Angels, now I owe all of my clannies money =.=

[Kattrina]

Hehe sorry to disappoint you. Noble Phantasm was actually really lucky to have so many talented and willing writers in our legion~! I'll be the first to admit I had virtually nothing to do with this. Members came up to me on their own and said they wanted to do it, they collected a team, managed it, and worked their magic.

I love you guys~!

I loved the Chronicle first edition all i can say is Fantastic work guys ^.^ much love <3

[StormBringer]

Uhm.

I have nothing positive to say because I'm currently an individual without a purpose, besides education atm, so i have no actual understanding behind why you would do that.

Are you trying hard to promote yourselves so you have more influence over the game when it releases?

Or are you just literally spending your time on stuff like this for fun?

I could contribute since I'm good with the whole language and article writing stuff, but i'm not good enough for NP apparently.


I read the information on the gathering and skill usage (armour/weps/pots etc) on AionGlobal, but thanks for the information on the other stuff.

My girlfriend loves to write poetry as well, Ryn's was kinda cool.

[Kattrina]

Why would we do something like this? Do you want to know the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth? Are you sure you can handle the truth?


It's because we're crazy!


Honestly, I think it's because we're not like your typical "big" guild. We didn't start Noble Phantasm to be super powered or to be really elite or anything. I didn't even think our guild would grow that big. Our goal is just to have a bunch of nice people, and have a lot of fun. We have some amazing writers in our guild, and some people who really enjoy this stuff, and they did it and had fun. So our true purpose behind this was really just to have a good time. My imagination is limited, but hopefully everyone in Noble Phantasm will continue to think up cool things we can keep doing besides just the typical raid and quest grind. And why? Cause it's fun.

[StormBringer]

Meh... Outside of reality i'm burnt out completely, there's nothing to do at all i can barely sit here for more than 15mins before I'm sick of it.

;/

Aion needs to release already or go open beta/PTS for the rest of us =/

Well,you know,the best ideas humanity ever came up with were thought around a table of friends and during a relaxed conversation.You'd be amazed what happens when intelligent people sit down and have a chat,ideas start to pop up like flies..
So you could say that NP is exactly like that,a few talented people that enjoy each other's company and through that atmosphere incredible things come up,like the Chronicle.So proud of you guys

Kat, you are sometimes way too nice. The proper response to stupid questions is STFU NEWB!

On a more serious note, the e-paper was a cute idea and I wish I had thought of it first. I would work on integrating that into your main web site... nvm I see it's not up yet (only forums). Hurry up! Lazy web coder? Cool publication. Keep it up.

[Kattrina]

Hahaha, I supposed that would have made my life a bit simpler, Lord Eidolon, but perhaps I rather enjoy making absurd little responses. Until Aion comes to soothe me, there isn't much else to do.

[eidolonnight]

Lord Eidolon? I lilke that. From now on all poster shall refer to me as "Lord Eidolon"

...

hmmmm

How about "Lord Eidolon the Great" or "Eidolon, Lord of Darkness: or "the Almighty and Omniscient Great Lord Eidolon"

oh the possibilities

HEY! Where's the June issue?

Uh oh. We've been caught! :|

Actually, with Aion so far from release and new info being quite sporadic (sometimes there's nothing then a lot happens at once) we're decided to favour a bi-monthly release moreso over a monthly one. Once Aion is closer to release and the amount of info released to the English speaking communities ramps up we might move into a monthly release schedule, but we'll see how things pan out. We'll probably have an issue covering CBT3 stuff etc. for July, anyway.

We've also been playing too much of WoW, our new 'wait-for-Aion' fix. Productivity is down but my Mage is level 43!

;_; Lunais your avatar is so cool now.
