River Twine Holt

(Why, yes, we're a little bit gorgeous )


River Twine Holt is something a little different: a traditional writing & art club featuring an Original Quest style tribe of wolfriders. In our group, rather than play out our elves' lives by forum roleplay, stories and fan art tell the tale. The pace is slow, and the creative involvement intense - if you prefer to write and draw rather than roleplay, have no time to keep up with an RP group, or are just looking for a different fandom experience, RTH is the place for you!

In addition to our creative community and large archive of fan fiction and fan art, River Twine Holt features a rich history and tribal background, active messageboards, monthly contests, trades and events, and a commenting system for both writing and art. The club is run by a five-person council, ensuring that even in the event of a leading member leaving, the group won't close down. We are always eager to welcome new members into the River Twine experience! Currently we have two types of membership available:

Player Members adopt a character and receive creative control of him/her, as well as full participation privileges, and need to turn in one sketch or 500-word story per three months;

Reader Members don't own a character and need only to give one comment per quarter to retain their membership, but get partial privileges such as access to restricted parts of our messageboards as well as a first crack at any newly adoptable characters. If you're interested in the club, but no character catches your eye, or you aren't sure if you'll have the time, joining as a Reader Member is an ideal option.

Please see the last posts for information on whether we have
characters available for adoption, or visit our fabulous website. Reader
Membership is always an open option, too!

I would like to join you, but I'm too young !!
>.<

I'd love to join up, but about my only talent is making dollz. Plus, I can't play males at all... ah well.

News on River Twine yet again! One of the holt's sweetest lifemated couples, Cloudfern and Greenweave, are both up for adoption. If you ever wanted to join RTH as a team, or even if you just like beautifully designed characters with wide and interesting family connections, now's an ideal chance .

River Twine updates strike again! Cloudfern has been adopted, leaving his lifemate, Greenweave, all alone out in the cold. He needs a loving home, you guys...!

We also have a pair of lovely ladies, Chicory and Windsong, available - both with strong family connections, both mothers (biological and adoptive, respectively) of adorable young cubs, but otherwise different as night and day, so you can pick your type. Give them a look!

I would love to adopt a character, I think! Is Greenweave still available?

I'm also quite fond of Chicory, if she's still available!

*crosses fingers*

Hi Sefra, thanks for your interest! I'm afraid I have bad news, though - both Greenweave and Chicory have just been adopted (I should've been quicker with the updates...)

Can I still interest you in Windsong? Other than her being a character with enormous potential (she's not really been updated since the Time Jump, for once, so there's room to adjust and throw out new ideas for her), I'm kind of biased - she's my character's mother . Please take a look at her CIS, she might surprise you!

Hello Joan!

I've been discussing Windsong with Eregyrn and I'm a bit on the fence with her. She's not a kind of character I normally play, but she's amazing nonetheless. I just asked Eregyrn if you could reserve her for me until tomorrow night? I promise to make a decision until then!

I hope you'll reach positive conclusions! It's good to experiment and stretch your comfort zone .

The truth is, we don't really have a reservation option in RTH; but we don't have any other standing applicants for Windsong right now, and a joining request usually takes a couple of days to get finalized anyway, so you definitely have some breathing room in coming to a decision.

Hmmm, I think I'm going to join as a Reader Member. I found the site two years ago and I love the fanart section and the elves stories are fascinating to read..
(Just hope I figure out how, because I'm a complete knucklehead apparently )

Vojira, you're definitely welcome as a Reader Member! That format also has its perks and I'm delighted to hear that you like our work. We try ^^ (and we also love guest art and fic, especially for our contests...)

This is our joining page and this is the page for Reader Members - hope that helps! If you have any questions feel free to post or drop me a PM.

In other news, RTH now has a full house: there are no characters available for adoption at this time. But again, we welcome all Reader Members - and one of the perks of Reader Membership is a first crack at adopting any elf that becomes available. So give it a thought!

RTH has unveiled the art for its 2011 calendar. If you're interested in seeing it, it's been posted here. We'll be having a page put up soon that will offer downloads of printable copies, or desktop wallpaper versions of various sizes.

The art is gorgeous!
