I can’t unsee it

Unworthy - The Light's Forgiving Embrace [PK] (Art done by TeaSpiller) It started with Light. He never recognized it for what it was, ignorant of the blessings bestowed upon himself - he had family, friends, purpose… The Light dimmed. Of course it lingered, even as he turned his back towards it. He wanted more, needed more… and so, he lost everything. (Sketch by JustLizzy) Darkness. It seduced him, preyed upon him in his weakness moment, and he couldn’t fight back. He embraced the dark, it’s cold embrace twisting his soul. The Light became the False Light His enemies were of the Light, they took everything from him in its name - Vengeance was Justice, and Justice was Salvation. He was not enough for Darkness And so it took his wife, his children, his friends, and his Honor. They would devote eternity to its service - what choice did they have? The False Light continued to taunt them for its warmth was everywhere in this realm. Why? Why are we still at this? Who are we after again? Those who once wronged us are gone, did they really wrong us? (Art done by ComatosePrincess) Doubt The beauty of the dark quickly fades when exposed for what it truly is, yet those who live in its shadow can never truly escape, a spiteful remorse filling their cursed souls with wretchedness. Is that the Light? The head of Aonghus Seragon had sat in that paladin’s sack for nearly a year, cursing the holy knights existence to no avail. Yet, when Light in its truest form touched him, the Darkness abandoned him without a second thought. It ended with Light The Light did not judge him, the Light forgave him, despite his sin, despite his hatred for it. His Soul was cleansed of its taint. He was saved, yet he still felt guilty for those he left behind in Darkness. Was it fair to be saved when he cursed them to such? But the Light did not deal in fairness, it dealt in goodness, and it was goodness that guided Aonghus to eternal bliss. As he passed into the Seven Skies, he only hoped that the Light may find those he cared for - Ailsa, Aurelion, Liadain, and the others.

This amendment would prevent me from moving 4 blocks per turn in CRP if I am wearing armor that has earth ensorcellment.

Hou-nification *a notice would be posted across the lands of Aevos, directed to those remnant Hou-Zi Ni’Hao Xiondi, My name is Yáohuàng, a Laobai-Zhu of Sakuragakure. It is my belief that for too long those of us that are left have been fragmented and separated, our growth limited in isolation. In the beautiful lands that I reside, I have found a welcoming community, one that encourages all of its people to prosper. Thus, I am writing in the hopes of bringing our kind together to live under the beautiful cherry blossoms. Come and seek me out, Yáohuàng, and together we shall build a community of Hou-Zi within these foreign lands. Zaihui, Yáohuàng the Hou'Shūyō

Raktzu sat cross-legged in his northern abode, his claws etching the following message into a canvas of hide for the Jūshoku: "Raktzu will be interviewed. Balance is the way of the hunter, this one is forever dedicated to the Hunt." This is all.

+1 An absolutely necessary change that I'd fight to the death over despite only having encountered it for the first time moments ago.

I find the biggest flaw with banditry to be laziness - laziness on the part of the bandit AND laziness on the victim of the banditry. Let us start with the former. Unfortunately, the style of banditry that most people are familiar with is led by individuals or groups that appear (italics added for emphasis) to be acting without regard to whether their victim is enjoying the RP. As with all RP, the experience is elevated when their is mutual understanding, or even a mutual pursuit of furthering their characters story narrative. Banditry, in its most common implementation, feels out of place and lacking in purpose, largely due to the bandits seemingly hasty and noncreative approach to the act. Like any type of RP, the quality of RP should not be neglected. Now, I believe the laziness of the victim is a direct result of the history and experience of banditry on the server as well as a result of the way the server works. Poor banditry roleplay has created an expectation among the player base that when they hear the common "HALT" emote, their mood quickly sours. While understandable, it is still not always acceptable. Rather, these players should ideally give bandits a chance - otherwise the situation will only be worse for everyone.

Nerf necro because it’s dangerous!

What gets you most excited to RP? Has the server been more or less enjoyable over time?

“Latz has nub been around in nearly ah century…” Ghuun'Akaal grumbles

Our Misguided Brother We Akaal weep for our brother who has fallen into the arms of darkness, we have failed in our duties as shepherds of enlightenment. Drus’Akaal is no more, Drus’Akaal has succumbed to the temptations of the Inferi, of the Bronze Bull, and of our greatest enemy, Iblees. Hours prior to the traitor writing his missive, I came across him in the city of Sulianpolis while I was scouting for our enemies. I approached Drus asking my weak-minded brother, asking what purpose he had there. He dishonored us with lies. He was there as an ALLY of the Inferi Bull. Urukim! YOU must see through that trickery of chaos, YOU must not allow such lies to guide us into further conflict, such is the goal of darkness. _________________________________________________________________________________________________ As for the accusations against the honorable Clan Akaal, I will address them each in turn: 1. Our misguided brother has misunderstood the meaning of Vitalism and the understandings of Akaal. Vitalism is not of dark shamanism, rather it is akin to any sort of spiritual worship. Akaal simply seeks to empower a lesser spirit into a greater. THIS IS NO DARKNESS. 2. Our misguided brother has misunderstood and misidentified the means in which Akaal continues life through death. Is it a crime to survive? Survival is in our BLOOD. When our time comes, we will welcome the Stargush with open arms. We will not blame ourselves for surviving as Krug willed us to do. THIS IS NO DARKNESS. 3. Our misguided brother has failed to find purpose and meaning in history. Gadhaal the Black is a piece of the uruikim story. To fail to acknowledge and learn of the stories of our ancestors is to blind ourselves. THIS IS NO DARKNESS. 4. Our misguided brother has succumbed to rumors regarding the Blood Rex. Akaal played no part in his disappearance. Once again, do not fall for the lies of Iblees. THIS IS NO DARKNESS. 5. Our misguided brother once again equates knowledge and understanding of history to purpose and moral. Clan Akaal denies any such claim of Dark Shamanism, such are baseless rumors without support. THIS IS NO DARKNESS. 6. Our misguided brother has failed in his trials of Akaal, misunderstanding their meaning and value. Akaal are not xionists, each and every member is free to have relations with whichever spirit they feel called towards. This has always been the way of Akaal. THIS IS NO DARKNESS. The only wrongdoing of Akaal was its failure in guiding DRUS to the LIGHT. For this, we apologize to the Ancestors, we apologize the our fellow Urukim. We are the Light.

The Elder Akaal spits out his cactus juice, his clawed hands crumbling the parchment "Why did latz nub come to mi firzt bruddah, der ahm anzwerz to latz grukz dat can explain it all..." he sighs before picking up his own materials, sitting down to write.
