Welcome to <a href=http://www.ancientworlds.net/aw/Group/36902>Exotikos</a>! I am Varilla Valerius, the Chatelaine of the
Islands. My job is to help you feel welcome & at home on our islands. As soon as you have settled in comfortably, please
introduce yourself on the
<a href=http://www.ancientworlds.net/aw/Thread/51184>Welcome to Exotikos</a> board and tell us a little about you
(i.e. what has brought you here, what you hope to see and experience, what your interests are, a bit about the persona
you plan to play, etc.).
<p>If you are new to roleplaying, there are two very well written guides by Maximius Flavius:
<ul><li><a href=http://www.ancientworlds.net/aw/Article/200187>Maria's RolePlay HelpDesk</a>
<li><a href=http://www.ancientworlds.net/aw/Article/144151>Maria's Roleplay Helpdesk II - Finding Your Voice</a></ul><p>
Of course, we ask that your follow <a href=http://www.ancientworlds.net/aw/Journals/Journal/169973>Roleplay Etiquette</a>
as helpfully outlined by Cornellia Cornelius.
If you have any questions about our group or about AncientWorlds in general (or just want to say "Hi!"), please do not
hesitate to ask me. I will do my best to get back to you quickly!
<p>If you would like a plaque for your Oikos that tells the world that you are a member of Exotikos, you can get one
<a href="http://www.ancientworlds.net/58882">here</a>.

Cylon family bio
|
Posted at 18:00 EST
|
Cylon (also know as Kylon) was a man with ambition. After becoming an Olympian victor in 640 BC, Cylon attempted to overtake & rule Athens in 632. He had support from his father-in-law who did the same thing in Megara, but this support wasn’t enough to bring his desired coup to pass. He sought sanctuary in the temple of Athena Polias on the Acropolis for himself and his followers, but his followers were killed by rivals led by Megacles of the Alcmaeonids. Cylon and his brother escaped, but they never returned to Athens.

I did it. I am showing my support of this great site by becoming a patron. The "thank you gifts" of extra grams and server space, along with the ability for additional groups to become a member to helped me make up my mind.

Homecoming
by Varilla Valerius
Travelers go far
Distance makes the heart grow fond
It's good to be home
---------------------------
It is indeed good to be home! I have been traveling throughout our great Empire for the last many years, & arrived back in Rome yesterday. While I have missed the goings on and citizens of the city, I have learned a lot on my journeys. Some of this learning has been from life, and some has been in the classroom. My teachers expect me to complete my studies to become a librarian by years end, and while I am excited to complete this formal program, I expect my actual education will continue for the rest of my days.
I look forward to meeting and greeting both new and old friends, and relearning everything this wonderful site has to offer.
