Rethai 163 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Hello LOTC, I had an idea that had to do with families. This often gets them in trouble RPly b/c they are either looked at too highly or lowly. From my experience of doing this, It hasn't worked for me. I'm proposing we have an 'orphanage' where you can say you come from, instead of lying about your family past. Obviously, if you have a family, you wont have to say this. Is anybody else tired of people lying about their past? P.S, I will actually be building an Orphanage if this is +1'd enough. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Jandy_ 3519 Share Posted February 11, 2015 +1, I love the idea, I think that this will make new characters almost more valuable, nobody enjoys having to rp that their family was slaughtered by orcs or something and that is why nobody is RPing their family, this is a wonderful idea :D Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sky 0 Share Posted February 11, 2015 We've had a few orphanages before, though they always end up moving and then go incredibly inactive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backup Lago 320 Share Posted February 11, 2015 I like the idea of an Orphanage as a place to store all the orphan characters. We've even got the perfect model...https://www.lordofthecraft.net/topic/91571-idea-shackles-silence-fortress-prison-of-anthos Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
~ Fiend ~ 611 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Just be a Deathsbane. ;;;))) Like an orphanage, but the people running it end up adopting all the kids. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quavinir_Twiceborn 1050 Share Posted February 11, 2015 I made a orphanage in Ager... None of the orphans wanted a stable home- or a stable source of food... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
~ Fiend ~ 611 Share Posted February 11, 2015 I made a orphanage in Ager... None of the orphans wanted a stable home- or a stable source of food... ...that too. People like to play the broken child with no one to love them, even if plenty of people are offering. So often so, that orphanages feel hopeless.

monkeypoacher 8055 Share Posted February 11, 2015 I ran a brothel that turned into an orphanage. Nobody wants to live in an orphanage tbh, orphan chars are just a quick way to free a character from familial ties (and in LoTC's case, the arduous process of getting people to play your family) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
