On Kha's...

Become nomadic.

There is no need to litter IC with OOC intervention. If the Kharajyr are in a declined state it is because they are simply on that path. It is up to the community of the Kharajyr to grow, or to quite frankly continue declining until nothing is left.

 

Their status as a unique race should be neglected in this instance, as their numbers are far too small, which is a point I needn't reiterate. 

[Publius 4098]

I think this is kind of ridiculous: You aren't neglected, you're simply just not important enough to make a major decision over anymore. The Kha for a long time have been the most privileged race in Athera, yet the smallest in population, sporting a floating city that pretty much no one could warclaim, and a racial buff that is actually extremely useful. It's not the lack of attention from others, but rather, the lack of attention from Kha on important issues that have lead to their current state. It is no one's responsibility to pull you from the dirt, and as Goldielocks pointed out, it's time to take steps towards becoming a major race again, not demand some special snowflake status because there is such thing as a Kha.

 

Personally, I think the Kha just need to present themselves again, as the RP is interesting, the characters are interesting, but it is up to those playing Kha to make the Kha attractive to potential players, not the staff or anyone else.

 

Also, beggar's can't be choosers: Either you take what you can get and make the best of it, or deal with the situation at hand by conventional means. The Caliphate is a wonderful hub for RP and the rest, and you really can't go wrong with having a district in it at the moment, especially noting its RP activity!

 

I reckon you ought to listen to Goldielocks on this one friend, and re-look at what didn't work for the Kha, remove it as a variable in the success of the race, and press on to make it interesting. Organize events, RP in places where new players will get a look at you! In short, make an effort to appeal to players, rather than make demands from them, especially if your population is less than a sub-race of any other race, really.

 

tl;dr Just press on with good RP and you will create your own gravy train. It would be kind of inappropriate for staff to intervene on behalf so few, especially considering that Kha historically have been given a lot of things to make them attractive, and it simply wasn't enough because of the way the player base presented themselves and treated one another.

We have had intervention yes im not going to discuss what happened with the specific gms who made people leave including the Tla' because this will turn into an argument. Not meaning to bring anyone out but yes we had our whole island destroyed for a tower which was destined to self destruct from the start. Yes we had a nexus plot before but that was taken away from us after the warclaim. We were active under Zanes rule in the ordium before the Va'Kha thing started. I don't think many realize that we have quite a few players roaming around Athera at the moment not being able to follow the lore. One of the main problems is "I want pelt" *pvp.* But thats rp so im not gonna argue that here. We were working up until the Ordium was destroyed. Even with Ohlokhar we had a place to follow lore and i managed to get quite a few people on there. Im not being ungreatful because it was fun whilst we had them. I understand your busy benbo but I have yet to see the events that came from the destruction of it.

 

Also from what i've been told our Goddess left us just because Benbo couldnt and didnt have the time to make decisions. A gm shouldnt the whole purpose of a kha because they cannot play it. We have no Tla nor any goddess now to worship. That means the majority of the lore is now pointless because Metztli left us because a gm couldnt play it?

You all let the cat out of the bag despite all that prior PRing that you guys were doing splendid. Next time, don't lie to us. Anyways, all civilizations have a rise, plateau, and fall - the Kha' should be no different. I wish all groups engineered themselves to have the rise, plateau, and fall to be more realistic and allow room to usher in neater and more developed ideas but I guess you all are looking for coat-tails to ride on worse than a Tea Party Republican believing in the big bad welfare state.

The only change is the GM hand-holding being removed. The 'turning away' as I believed I phrased it of Metztli is simply that. Metztli as far as Kha' are concerned is still with you - it should not be affecting your RP in the slightest. She did squat bar choose the occasional Tlatlanni anyway, worship and sacrifice away. Roleplay is for the sake of roleplay, Metztli not paying attention is completely irrelevant, you can still do exactly the same religious RP as before with exactly the same result. And I never once played Metztli lol, she's a particularly reclusive Daemon, I played her wisps for the Ordium events and that's it. As for the Ordium events, they will continue, but intentionally not for a while.

We can no longer see into the future, have prophecy's or a tlatlanni
