Trazier

Are you insane? Your first comment is just off the scale. Also, YOU WEREN'T WEARING YOUR ARMOR, did you not even read what I said? You died to one arrow and one slash. Imagine a hostage situation IRL, now imagine a hostage taker getting shot in the side. Now imagine instead of a little bullet, it's a big ol' arrow. The impact alone is going to stun them, and basicly collapse them on the wound, and then someone is feet away ready to jump in. That's how it played out in my mind. I just didn't expect you to curl up and die from 2 hits, but then again, you weren't wearing anything. P.S. "Sent you a message" sorry, I had to take note of that.

As a friend, and a person of sense, I would recommend against this. Just the other day some masked man was in Alras where I was having dinner, and I didn't think much of it until I heard him talking to another person, and I heard him ask the first person if he'd 'ever heard of the merry men'. That piqued my interest as you had spoken to me about perhaps forming a group under that name. I guess he and the man went off to discuss some stuff (yes, I could hear their chat but I RP as not being able to hear non-shouted conversations made out of my view). A short while later, the masked man has this fella out on the balcony, where he's screaming that he's going to slit his throat unless a ransom of 19 iron ingots were delivered in 1 minute. I shouted back up (as I heard him out on the balcony) how one was supposed to come up with such a ransom inside 60 seconds, and his reply was to buy them from one of the stores. The stores were selling them for 50 minas, but honestly, 1950 was at the time more then I had, and was absolutely WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY more than i'd pay to rescue some random stranger. If he had asked for 50, or maybe 100, or even for me to cover the bar tab, I would've considered. Drastic measures were going to be required. I headed upstairs with a dwarf who heard the shouting from the street. The masked man kept his hostage in front of him while negotiating with the dwarf. We had a few whispers at which point I tossed him a bow and half a dozen arrows, and he took to the street and confronted the masked man from down below. I crept forward from my hiding spot and saw that he had his back to me, as he was yelling at the now archer dwarf down below. I had the perfect opportunity to backstab. ((I'll also point out that at the onset of this, the guy he was robbing said he had 5 minutes before he had to go to school and he(masked man/divinusxiphowever he spells it) said 'ok this'll only take about 3'. I thought how could I advance the RP scene but allow this guy who has to go a chance to duck out?)) I decided instead to order him to drop his weapon. He spun around to face me (his hostage doing so as well, nice touch there) and decline, only now he had an archer at his back. The archer ordered him to drop his weapon as well. He decided to press the knife into the throat of the hostage, and when he did so an arrow came flying up and hit him squarely. Just in case it wasn't a mortal injury but before he could move to stab the hostage, I lept forward and took a slash at him, shoving away the victim. I had intended to then alert the authorities, but all he did was mutter some curses and quickly bleed out. ...you could imagine my surprise when I took the mask off and found it to be this fella before the monk brigade came huphuphuphuphupping in to cart off the slain. I don't know if a leadership position would be appropriate, but that's just from my encounter. You may feel differently and even run a different operation than I would. ((And i'd like to point out he was needlessly douchey afterwards. Had a 10 min bitchfest with me in tells saying how it was powergaming that I killed him, and he had the hostage in front of him and everything else.... He totally ignored the points I made, 1: that if he has an opponent in front of him AND behind him, it doesn't matter where he positions a hostage, he's open to an attack by the unguarded one. 2: AND the point that the guy he was robbing was a schoolkid who needed to get going, AND the RP could've continued.... But apparantly, the only way he wanted it scripted from the beginning, was this younger fella got to go to school only when he'd had his throat slit and Mr. masked man then said he could go! 3: If he dies from one arrow and one sword slash, maybe he should wear his armor. I found a set of leather on him even though he wasn't wearing anything but his skin during the 'robbery'. That's it. I know I mentioned this to you briefly when I heard he was part of your group, but having read that he's SECOND IN COMMAND I felt like I had to point out this encounter, and also say i'd certainly not be interested in joining any group that had me in a subordinate position to a feeb like this.))

Sounds interesting. Hope it works out for you.

Every time i've travelled to the hallowed mountain (8 of 8), i've found it empty, desolate, barren of even one dwarven soul to talk to/trade to/buyfrom/whatever. I've tried at all hours of the day (RL, as my times shift, I been there early AM american time when 30 people are on, i've been there early evening american time when 250 people are on), yet still I do not see anybody. What happened to the legion that crafted the place? Is the whole dwarven population stuffed behind the doors and gates that read 'dwarves only'? (Closest encounter I had with a dwarf was when a new one soulstoned to the outside of the place as I was leaving and was lost and starving, so I threw him some bread and cookies)

Might as well form a group, for when you go barking up the wrong tree, huh?

If I wasn't afraid of the evilempire that is facebook, i'd totally do this!

Is it wrong that I busted out laughing at this?

Here we go! MC name: Trazier RP name: Trazier Character's age: Fifteen Have you ever commited a crime and/or been part of a gang?: Yes. I once murdered an orc who ran into my room, and swiped my anvil (iron block). Orders to 'stop thief' 'halt' 'HALT NOW' were ignored as he continued to run. Eventually I cornered him, and instead of giving up my anvil, he barricaded himself in with gravel, so I dug him out, dispatched him, and reclaimed my anvil. Also, another time, I ran into someone trying to rob someone else right outside Ark's End. As you could imagine, I was rather unhappy. He was trying to rob 100 minas from the traveller, so I told him, as a 'stupid tax' he must immediately pay one half that amount to his 'victim'. He chose instead to run, and some 'street justice' was his reward for doing so. State 3 of your character's skills: Logic(he's real smart), Honor/Integrity (honor is life), Personal code of moral and ethics(For good or bad, his actions usually fall under this). State 3 of your character's weaknesses: Rage (He's generally got a long fuse, but the powder keg at the end of it is the stuff of legends), Martyrdom (Faced with a 4v10 situation, he'd tell the three with him to get lost, that he'll handle things), Personal code of moral and ethics. (You don't want to be on the wrong side of this. Treat him right, he'll treat you the same way, wrong him, and he WILL have satsifaction, one way, or another...) How often do you go online and how long?: Some days I can crack out for 5+ hours, other days i'm not on for 2 or 3 at a clip, probably because i'm either reading, writing, or playing league of legends. And have you read the rules( rules are located below right after our list of allies): Yup And do you have Teamspeak?: I do, downloaded it just for this server, but i couldn't find anybody to talk to. There was one room, 'krugmar' with like 10 people in it, so I stopped in there. Within 90 seconds, everyone stopped chatting, then 7 of the people changed to a locked/private room. I turned it off and haven't used it since. Do you like the Undead?: I like them as much as anyone enjoys a foe. There must be evil in the world for there to be good. Do you like the Ascended?: I'm not sure. I've been to their city, it's always locked and barricaded, i've met one or two in game, but they were exceptionally aloof and seemed to look down upon me. Then I met one who set the road on fire outside ark's end in order to burn a zombie, and I now view them kind of as the undead. Some faction of rogue mages who like to bury their noses in books and come up with new ways to cast dangerous things. What country are you from or what time zone are you?: el-anith, currently working from an eastern standard time location.

I take it i'd have to be a part of the undercover wing to not show a Holmes title then? That might actually work out, if that's what you're saying. I've run into Midnus once or twice, he seems like someone it'd be fun to work under.

Is rule #7 set in stone? I ask because i've always been "Trazier". It's RPd as a combination of two names, Tra, and Zier, which is why I hate it when people call me 'traz' as it's an insult to both names, but I digress. I've only seen one other person calling themselves this in my existance (and it was just some guy on final fantasy online, which I never played). I'm one of the few people who's MC name and RP name are the same, also because my MC name isn't "xXxSwordfyreXxXDEATHBLAYDE". Would I have to setname myself to include holmes and a rank? Or could I be 'that guy' who's just known of involvement through word of mouth, and letting people know himself? I support more people using Ark's End!

Is Kyrian known as the official name of "The Aegis God"? I thought the aegis god had no name, just like 'god' god IRL, but I could be wrong. What I do know, however, is that if someone were to open a competing religion, the temple would be upset, and a... shall we say... cleansing, might take place. Those birch-encrusted reformed churches were almost purged in a similiar fashion, but it was discussed at length i'm told. They were allowed to remain, because they still worship god in aegis, but just go about doing it a different way. If they were worshipping belzebub instead, it's pretty certain they'd just be burnt out shells of buildings by now.
