it was bound to happen

I think this thread is for lames, nerds, weirdos and losers as @Gamma wasn't added.

Personally, I've faced a lot of events where the death of my character is at stake. And what I've realized, is that if you want the rewards of narrative, you must take the risk. I do not believe ET should relent, but familiarize players with death in story building. Not everything goes your way and that is an important thing for growth, development and tension building in storytelling.

"Good for you." A terrible lord commented, absorbed in its next, brewing scheme; a smile would be upon its face, if it could do such a thing. It knew what came and looked forward to such travesties.

For Whom The Bell Tolls (Remastered) Tranquility across Aevos had been shattered, the heavens glimmered briefly as a teal light ran over the continent, the world stirring as otherworldly bells toll. Aeos and Eos’ core rumbled, shockwaves shooting through your body, then fading quickly as peace was found again. A thought streaked across your mind, an intangible trespasser that whispered, were we safe? Hours later, a certain fortress had been possessed with a certain zeal. A light as dreadful as the storm that hung overtop of it was apparent before a whirling, black mass of bats escaped skyward, raining down blood stained pages upon the world, reaching each corner of descendant-kind. History is an ocean, endless stories existing within it as time laps at the world, drowning what was forgotten, what was lost. And as antiquity’s avid overseer, I charged deep into its bowels with my strongest at my side to scorn those who raised me, entombed me, with an insult most foul. In a sunken pit, lit by a flaming blade, I led the charge against Xion’s forebears, the first Lord of Death, who I’ve dethroned and beheaded, the Abysslord Malkaathe. Our exchange had been mythical as it shot through the earth in tremors, but what came next was legendary. With the battle won, we led ourselves further and deeper with a zeal left unsatiated. Thereupon our victory, we avariciously challenged a keeper of the Abyss, an agent sent by Aeriel, Saraneth the Binder, who kept the keys to the tomb of a million souls. Though, our quarry had not been the Old Lord nor the heaven sent, no. It was the occultic God who we unleashed into the Abyss upon besting the Angel, sending her fleeing back to the Golden Fortress in a streak across the skies. The Bell tolled across the world, you felt it as the first Apparition, occultic God of Mysticism and the Waking Synod, Mthyul Tlan awoke and subsequently fell to forces of both undead and devils as I wielded my sword. With an army of my own, I have laid this God of Mysticism to an eternal rest. Absorbing the sea of souls, the cornerstone of the Soulstream, I have killed its peaceful will. And now, I will wash over this realm with an army of unshackled souls, devouring all who wish for apotheosis. Necromancers, Mystics and foul preachers of the dead faith, I have consumed your icons, your gods. Know that you’re next. Know my name, Gashadokuro, God Eater.

An icy footsoldier brought this notice to the Red Lich's attention as it rested upon the laurels of countless battles. Perplexed, Gashadokuro made its comment; "They get confident attacking midgets ? What a bunch of pansies."

🪱 been up all night playing wit' my worm

"KYAHAHAHAHA!" Rang out from piled bones as they stirred restlessly, the Archlich rejoiced as a holy body was brought forth, adding to a growing summit of bodies.

To give the average noob the ability to combat an invisible NPC monster the size of an Olog

In considering your feedback, I've added more nerfs. Thank you for your time

Corpsecrafting: https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forums/topic/186818-magic-lore-necromantic-corpsecrafting/ Subsection: Fleshsmithing Proposed Flesh Golem redlines: - A Flesh Golem may be instantly defeated by either crushing or removing their head, [2] heavy swings sufficing enough to sever their head or crush their skull. - Due to their embalment, a Flesh Golem’s dead flesh is easily flammable. If a Golem is hit with a continuous stream of fire, they must have said flames extinguished (Either by rolling around, water or other means). Should it not be extinguished after [4] consecutive emotes, they’ll wither away into ash. It takes [2] emotes to extinguish or [1] emotes with assistance. - If their flesh is struck by Aurum, the Golem would be stunned for [2] emotes, the lifeforce within them destabilized. This has a cooldown of [3] emotes to prevent stunlock. Subsection: Reanimation Proposed Reanimation redline: - A reanimation may be instantly defeated by either crushing or removing their head, [2] heavy swings sufficing enough to sever their head or crush their skull. - Due to their embalment, a reanimation’s dead flesh is easily flammable. If a reanimation is hit with a continuous stream of fire, they must have said flames extinguished. (Either by rolling around, water or other means.) Should it not be extinguished after [3] consecutive emotes, they’ll wither away into ash. It takes [2] emotes to extinguish or [1] emote with assistance. - If their flesh is struck by Aurum, the reanimation would be stunned for [1] emote, the lifeforce animating them destabilized. This has a cooldown of [2] emotes to prevent stunlock. Proposed Oculi redline: - An oculi cannot be a worn and must held. - Due to their fragile nature, an oculi would break with [1] strike. - If a necromancer’s speech is impaired, they are incapable of commanding their reanimations. - An oculi may be no harder to knock out of your hand than a book would be. Thaumaturgy: https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forums/topic/186820-magic-lore-necromantic-thaumaturgy/ General Redlines: Proposed addition: - Both Black Sacraments and Rituals must be taught adequately in roleplay, merely participating is useless in replicating necromancy’s chaotic processes. Subsection: Rituals Proposed Rite of Sealing redlines: - A signed Tomb cannot be placed behind more than (3) iron doors or (1) mechanical redstone door and able to be accessed mechanically. Archlich addition: https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forums/topic/186821-ca-races-necromantic-simulacra/ Proposed ability: Corpse Courier: Given access to a long deceased corpse, an Archlich may impart a portion of their lifeforce after [3] emotes, creating a means of communication and a level of separation between them and their lessers. They may inhabit this corpse to speak through when brought before a Heith-Hedran, requiring [3] emotes. Redlines: - An Archlich may commune through a corpse, either placed or left, so long as they know of they corpse they wish to speak through. - An Archlich may have up to [3] corpses which they may commune with, each requiring ST signature. - Once placed, a corpse cannot move and when communed with, their sight is hazy and warped, unable to make out faces or people although able to clearly hear their voices. - When communing with a corpse, the Archlich must be before an ST signed Heith-Hedran, where they will fall into a stupor, entirely focused on their conversation. - All communications are done through /msg. - If combat were to ensue on either end, the Archlich would be snapped back to reality, stunned for [1] emote. - This may not be used to temporarily take over other undead, i.e. Ghouls, Darkstalkers, Draugar, Archliches. Their bodies already possessed. - This may not be used as a means to rally forces such as a bird, only serving as a communion between an Archlich and its servants. - The corpse may be destroyed by crushing the skull of the cadaver. - The corpse used must be a slain player's.

@sam33497just add that anchor and teleportation emote cannot be done in the same emote and that teleportation follows average movement rules. 4 if interrupted, 8 blocks base, 12 with a focus

Can I be grandfathered? Thanks

"THIS IS IT." A fiery blade manifested in the hands of Gashadokuro in light of this ephiphany. Tearing itself from its seat, the Archlich begun to whirl down, seeking to a new land. "THE TIME TO SEIZE THE POWER IS HERE."

The evil eye of Gashadokuro glares over this page, even if not personally directed to it, this missive was an issued challenge to the undead.

"True Necromancy." A disembodied voice called out from a shadowy corridor, where only flakes of red were perceived in the low light.

"I will arrive into the High-Hells scaled and horned!" Gashadokuro, the source of all problems, laughed while hovering over a great rift in reality that rippled lavishly.

What needs to be amended is tells and telegraphs made specific and their counts unable to be reduced. During concentration based spells, movement is limited to [2] blocks. But voidal magic is getting to the boiling point where nerfs will be either done correctly by the playerbase or made right by management
