A Vigiler is one who takes part in the Vigil of Gode'shun.
Where then is the vigiler they keep? In the Old Round, in a city of no name which sits on the edge of the world of Light is where The Dim begins. There, the twelve Vigilers gather to chant the Mantra of Gode'shun, each in turn, which the first God of Light gave to this world before slain by a dark god most foul. When the mantras resonate through that holy place, building in strength with each release, such a fury of love and light are released at the final mantra's utterance that no evil may stand against its power. Should that city ever fall, should the mantras ever fail, should the voices speaking the mantras be silenced...woe be upon the face of the world, and woe be upon all those who live in and love the Light...
Having first heard the name "Gary Gygax" (Gods bless his departed soul...) in late 1979, I've been devoted to wares such as his ever since. Yes, devotion is a word I'd use to describe what I live, not "craving" or "obsession". Now, nearly 30 years and several thousands of pages of writing later, I am steered to this website by a ghost of a friend: ShadowSkin.
I have role-playable universes stuck in my head, and quite a few have had a glimpse into them - with many having lived, and several having died, but all having laughed at so many encounters welled up from its depths. I'm long-winded and wordy, which is my downfall, but here I am - ready to read and share from time to time.
(yeah, and after that I think I'll hunt down all of ShadowSkin's posts and verbally waylay him there until he, the Overlord of the 8th Dimension, cries and runs back under the bed where he came from
