"Keep her. Free of charge."

I've truly never facepalmed so hard in my life. This is the worst decision the staff has ever made. Ever.

You are such an insightful person and add so much to the discussion at hand.

The issue really is that everyone is saying, "I'm facepalming so hard right now, bro."

At least give some other options or some remedial for to balance it. It's clear this isn't set in stone yet. If you want to get something across to Telanir and Tythus, complain in this livestream. Bickering in this thread will only lock the thread.

I'll just say one thing though, in Aegis it worked, and very well. But let's take a little walk down memory lane, a lot of **** has changed since then, especially the playerbase's mentality.

Don't disregard that you made a choice that the community  was split in half with, ergo half the server leaves, and half the server stays. And with the current addition of plugins with no one's consent or even forewarning is surely bringing that numeric variable of people staying to an all time low since those crap island in between. When there were only about thirteen to fourty people online at any given time.

Better yet just make it so that the players decide instead.

If you do this, then give mages access to the magic plug-in. If the racial plug in was made, then the magic plug-in should be well past completion.

Pretty cool guy, +1

Bran Volsung signs

"We come here to save you from damnation, and you persist in your sinful nature. Good riddance to bad trash."

Bran Volsung strolls through Kingston, looking at the commotion he approaches a poster.

"What frivolous accusations, all of this is false. Let the pox peasents spread their rumours. It's all they have other than leprosy. Tearing down these posters will only convince them. A guilty man buries the corpse, the innocent leaves it be."

Looking about with venial disdain a sympathetic gesture is given.

"The White Rose are your saviors, not your killers."

Bran Volsung laughs in the back.

"Chlamideus!"

Bran Volsung carefully read over the article, remaining stoic he raises his hand to rub his beard.

"Mm, I suppose it's time to persecute the others as well. Contrivers and conivers alike are about, and it's time a mendacious group be culled."

Tossing aside the frill of his tabard he began his walk to the White Rose fort.

"THEY LAUGHED! BUT I... I WAS PREPARED!"

Who are you?

Let it be known that Count consort Bran Volsung and Countess Rose Valois support this claim.

A noble endeavour, but frivolous at its best. You can't help people become more mature.

Looks cool.

I'd suggest contacting jarkarll, as he has a Spanish-based House in Oren which has land. Perhaps he could work with you in some way. Not entirely sure.

It's more of a slaver camp.

I've known Aiim for about two weeks now. Aiim. I'm pleased to say that he has all the qualities an ET member should have especially that of an actor. He is creative and knows how to roleplay well, take this as my +1!

I have a question.

When it comes to GM's intervening with RP because it cannot be solved in RP, what dictates that it cannot be solved in RP? I'm a little confused, if something is created in RP then it could be solved via rp. I'd just like this to be a little clearer for me, thank you.

Bran, on his usual patrol through the capitol, spots the sign. With a fluid movement he raps the poster off the board, crumpling it. A single thought crosses his mind.

Jarkarll... Its in your "My Characters" Spoil

yolo

Jackarll, you have an Orc. Could a Human Order not revere Krug as their patron of war?

How do you know that? lol. I haven't played my orc in ages. 

It's a possibility, during my time as an orc there were some non-orcs that were accepted as orcs. You're best shot is to make up a patron yourself.

No, he summarized the Roses. The Teutons are spehss mahreens, not superstitious, "evil" knights.

This seems EXACTLY like the Roses, they terrorize people, kill magicians and non-believers... racist and bigot minded knights.

Damn those blasted White Roses! Evil cretins! And a whole 5% bigoted! Tear them limb from limb I say!
