NOTE: Not trying to be “edgy” in this post. I honestly want to improve the quality of roleplay in a town. This is me reaching out to the community. I want to know if any town is lacking good roleplay, and or is in need of something exciting. Such as a revolution.

 

While performing as an actor on LoTC, I played a character who helped overthrow the government. This brought me to my realization, “When is the next big coup?” To which I had no answer.. until now!

 

The Plan:

    •  Create a new persona, sole purpose won’t be to topple the government!
    •  Join a royal guard, be trained irp on how to fight
    •  Live in a city irp for 12+ years (3 months ooc), gather a sense of the roleplay in the town
    •  Have ideas of possibly overthrowing anything that seems unfair
    •  Gather members with the same ideas
    •  Create a big rp event
    •  Try and overthrow a government

 

Now you might be thinking, “How do you plan on choosing the city?” or, “Why would a city willingly let this happen ooc?” First answer is I will link a poll so people who view this can vote on which city they’d like to participate. Next, I will ooc contact the region owners of said city and try to pitch them this idea. The first choice may not want to do this event, which is fine. We will just move on to the second choice, then the third, and so on. I also won’t be gathering a bunch of outsiders to overthrow a government, I will also try convincing the people to revoult, therefore increasing our chances of success. ALSO, I will lead if it comes to that in roleplay, I will also gladly let other people help lead this. I’m not trying to be the rebellious leader who liberates a city I just want to help get the ball rolling for a revolution, leading it or not.

 

IMPORTANT:

If you are interested in participating in such a coup, let me know via discord. McDanky#8651

 

If you are a region owner of a city and would like this event to occur, message me as well and we can discuss how both parties want this to happen.

 

If you are a ST or someone who can help run said event, message me as well.

 

Only vote if you are interested in participating, or if you have a serious grudge against a city:

NOTE: The character to lead the revolution has yet to be created. One I get all the data I need I will create a new persona that will get the ball rolling. Just cause I’m starting fresh doesn’t mean the people involved have to. Feel free to use pre-existing characters to help. I will let everyone who is interested know all the details and will keep them updated on the situation.

 

Feel free to message me if you have any idea! Please don’t metagame anything!

Spoiler

Very few leaders would allow this, sadly leadership is very OOCly rooted in lotc.

Overthrowing a government is not hard, make it thrive afterwards is the real challenge.

Creating an application and making a bunch of characters for the ooc purpose to topple a nation seems a bit too meta for my liking

Honestly, just want to get an idea of what city people want to liberate and why. I do want a new character that has qualities I haven’t explored fully in roleplay. Such as anger issues, rebellious tendencies, and someone who is a guard. Toppling a government won’t be their sole purpose and I don’t intend on it being that. I want it to flow naturally.

even if its agreed, it wont go smoothly due to how much OOC hate and hostility this can create between players. This happened on all the occasions that orc playerbase forced a clan wars to “stir up activity”. It doesnt works and only makes things worse while it sounds nice on paper.

I’m hoping this can be different! I understand there’s a 9/10 chance this character gets beheaded for treason but it’s still worth a shot. This is an opportunity for people to help indirectly by giving advice and tips.

You should gather this information in roleplay, and conduct this all in RP. this would make for a decent event

This current Guild has been deemed inactive and has hereby been moved. If you wish to appeal this decision you must present evidence to myself proving the guild is still active.

      Stein's Final Moments
      Alone, that was the feeling he felt, as he laid on the table in the surgical room in the Hohkmat clinic. Fear made itself  known as well, as he was recently cured from vampirism in that very room. The fear only grew as the restraints seemed to get tighter and the room spinning. Two others made there way in, separate, and at different times. They were once friends, family even if it came down to it. But his actions caused them to forget him as someone good. Hour's passed by as Stein, now called Almer, laid there on the surgical table, waiting for his fate to be decided. The door creaked open and his restraints came loose, allowing himself to sit up. His fate had been decided, the only thing he could do, was make it painless. The choices were simple, die a painful death, or be put to sleep, feeling nothing. The decision was simple, as he took the Nightsap juice given to him.
       
      Before drinking, memories of his life flashed in his mind, memories of his childhood on his farm with his family, that he had forgotten so long ago. Now taking a drink of the juice, memories of his time in Reinmar, the friends he made that grew into a family outside of his original home on the farm. And as he slowly drifted away, his memories were of his new friends, now wishing him dead. The last image that made it's way to his mind was everyone he knew, gathered together. Almost like a final farewell, even though he did not deserve it. As his death drew near a tear rolled down his face, before his heart stopped, his limbs and body turning cold, and his image, slowly fading away, into the darkness, as he drew his very last breath.
       
      --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      OOC NOTE:
      Finally, after almost three months of playing as Stein/Njal/Almer, I have finally made the decision to pk him. This wasn't the ending I wanted for him, however this is the ending I am giving him. I am taking this time to thank everyone that was a part of his life, these past three months on the server have been a blast. Stein and myself have made a lot of friends that I hope to keep and play along side them with other characters I make. So for those reading this thank you and to anyone that knows, give a salute as "The Stone Fortress" has finally fallen.
       
      I will now take the time to thank those that have impacted Stein's life greatly @FunkehMelon @melonth @ickyNuN @confusedjester @Rocky_Wolf @SmothBM  @Irishmanmichael  and of course many more that I am sadly too lazy to actually search up and apologize for it. However though not everyone that has impacted Stein's life will be on here, I have not forgotten you and will never forget you. So thank you all for the fun three months, and I will see you all in my next lives <3!
