Dark Passion Play

The Bible followers of the Nightwish cult follow. This doctrine lists ways in which followers of the God Tuomas Holopainen live their day to day lives. If the laws are not obeyed, followers find themselves banished to the Dreamer's Hideaway, for 1001 nights, where they are made a whore for the Sailor of the Cold World. Once the wolves have arrived after the 7 days, followers plant Amaranth flowers in the Meadows of Heaven. This ritual is dedicated to whoever brings the night on the Island of Eva.
The opening ritual of any gathering on the Island of Eva is opened with the ritual decapitation of the Poet. After, followers are required to spit on the poet's grave. This ritual is said to have given birth to the Dark Passion Play.

o-dark-thirty

Military time designating an unspecified time after midnight but before sunrise. Normally used in reference to either the time one goes to sleep, wakes up, or has to be on-the-job. Usually quite a while before sunrise, i.e.: well before 0500 hours ( 5AM for you civilians )

The name is a play on the way 24-hour time is handled in the Military. Times are pronounced as numbers and written without colons, i.e.: 4:30PM is 1630H or "sixteen-thirty hours". Times between midnight and noon such as 4:00AM are written as 0400 and have the leading zero called out as "zero" or the letter "O", as in "o-four-hundred".
Example: We had to get up at o-dark-thirty to get the job done this morning.

667 Dark Avenue

At asoue.proboards.com lurks an obsessive community of Lemony Snicket worshippers. The site was created by the mysterious Tragedy, mysterious in the sense that no one has any idea who he/she/it is and most are desperate to know what resides in he/she/it's pants. The site was created by this mysterious being, whom many members consider the alpha and the omega, the creator of all things, so these fans can endlessly discuss A Series of Unfortunate Events.
Many notorious members include:
BSam:-Hilarity just falls out of every one of his orifices.
Dante- the father of all knowledge.
Sixteen- Who seems to be romantically involved with everyone on the site.
Trikip- A backlog of weird I.P address impersonators surround this 'person'.
Emma Squalor- Would say Hannah Montanna was talented if she posted on the site.
Fancy: Queen of 667. No one is really sure why.
Songbird (or is it freebird)- The most bossy moderator.
Sherry Ann- who seems a lot older than her 1000years. It is widely acknowledged that Sherry Ann was around before the creation of the universe or even matter itself.
Hermes- The heir of Dante, gains Dante's title when Dante passes on. Many murder plots have been organised, as get none successful. That sneaky Dante.
MyKindEditor- Seemed promising at first, has dwindled somewhat.
Tiago Squalor- 667's most flamboyant member, is currently writing the sequel to ASOUE.
Freebird (or is it songbird)- Er, yh.
Join the community today! Or not, good choice.

Dark Souls 2

Dark Souls II is a smart, massive, and incredibly rewarding sequel. It’s crammed with deep systems, tense encounters, and enough clever multiplayer and New Game Plus elements to make me want to restart the second I saw the end credits. Not all of the tweaks and additions worked out for the best, but with such great enemies and levels to fight and explore, Dark Souls II made 60 hours of pain and agony so much fun they flew by in a heartbeat.
Have you ever played the dark souls trilogy? yeah my favorite one was Dark Souls 2, said jeffrey
