In the beginning there was darkness... No, really. Guardians of the Sirist started out as a text-based rpg on a black telnet screen. After the lion king craze, everyone was into big cats - so when I first started my game, all of the characters were feline- Kotu is the only character that survived since then. I had always been facinated with elementals and the apocalypse, and they slowly wove themselves together until the end result became GotS.

As I got older, I managed to make a new rpg - one that was more like what I envisioned gots to be - human based, but with animal familiars. This game was a much bigger success than the old rpg, and almost everyone there claimed it to be their favorite.

After awhile, real life took over and the game died. I lost interest to pursue new things such as my friends, school, and everything else that kept me busy on a day to day basis. When I met fellow artists, Julianne and Shai, they seemed strangely close in personality and interests to two of my old characters. I told them about the story, and Shai stepped up to help me on my way to finally publishing it.

 

There were quite a few people who played on the original game that still exist on the net today. Names include: Shannon Kuprik, Shahila, Jason Aisling, Ahsavka, Frisket17, ect ect
