Soundtrack __________________________________________________________________________________ By chance or by misfortune, you come across a note, or perhaps numerous, and you read. _______________________________________________________ Dear Kharajyr of all prides, This one's name is Sa'Morak. He reaches out to you in order to invite you to attend a meeting; This meeting may decide Kharajyr future. What is known to Sa'Morak is nothing of the feuds between Kharajyr groups, but Sa'Morak does know that we have no determinate Tlatlanni. This is not the way of our Goddess. Have Kharajyr forgotten her name? The meeting shall begin, by location shown beneath, at dusk in two days. Sa'Morak shall mediate this gathering. There is an absolute banishment of violence. Treat this area as if it were Metztli's High Temple. Have Kharajyr forgotten what they are? By Metztli's grace, Sa'Morak invites you to speak in representation of individual Kharajyr groups, each with a claim to the title of Tlatlanni. At the peak of this meeting, we shall beseech Metztli for her decision. May the moon guide Kharajyr to their destination. Has Kharajyr forgotten what that is? Signed, Sa'Morak _______________________________________________________ The note holds attached a location for the meeting to occur. Do you attend? If so, continue reading, and post your response. __________________________________________________________________________________ Kharajyr from across Axios gather. Minimal in number, and some wounded due to the hostilities endured due to a lack of belonging. Some seem impoverished, and barely taxed by their newfound faiths. Among the group, it is clear that there is a divide: the Ape'Kha and the Kharajyr. Your character joins the meeting, and is allowed to remain if they are in fact a Kharajyr. __________________________________________________________________________________ A Kha'Tigrasi approaches a botched podium in order to address the Kharajyr below, who have convened in a circle. He speaks. _______________________________________________________ "Sa'vi, Kharajyr" he begins, arms abreast and welcoming. "Sa'Morak welcawmes you." His smile shows two of his fangs. "Sa'Morak stands at a crossrawds. Kharajyr are fighting Kharajyr once again, and Sa'Morak would frown at this." There is a dramatic pause as he looks across the ground. "Metztli would frown at this." He stacks some paper in front of him, a huge grin on his face. "Now..." "Down to business. Who will be first to claim the position of leader?" _______________________________________________________ The Kharajyr awaits a response. __________________________________________________________________________________

Whatever happened to roleplay defining out of character decisions like this? When you, the staff, brought in new races you knew fine well that you'd have to stick by that decision. You can't just add something then remove it because it suits you and expect not to be cried at. The Mori were removed in a similar way, and that was equally outrageous BUT, they had an RP reason to stay in their home while it fell. Here, you're BOOTING out characters for an OOC reason. Honestly, it really is as simple as that.

I would much rather see some plot. Some actual story to play a part in. All of this 'make your own RP' is very tedious when nobody is around, and therefore I think it's a decent idea to simply create a story opener - for instance, a new government with some actual power - and to see where it goes. Does everybody join the new regime? Does the regime have a new magic that the other Kharajyr don't? Is the regime backed by an unknown force or deity? All of these question could be answered through good roleplay and decent plot making. It's very simple to do, yet it has to be a group effort. No one person can be responsible for making a race changing movement.

There is no need to litter IC with OOC intervention. If the Kharajyr are in a declined state it is because they are simply on that path. It is up to the community of the Kharajyr to grow, or to quite frankly continue declining until nothing is left. Their status as a unique race should be neglected in this instance, as their numbers are far too small, which is a point I needn't reiterate.

"My friends, some of you forget yourselves. This one sees Kharajyr who hide, whimper and cry at the sound of a challenge. This one sees Kharajyr who will take an arrow for an ape. This one sees Kharajyr creating sparks in a magic he does not know. This one is tired of it. Are we not Metztli's devout children?" "The previous Tlatlanni are nothing to hide, we all know their fate. They are with our goddess now and she watches down, but what does she see? Does she sees what Sa'Quorak sees?" "We must ask ourselves what the worth of our actions truly are. If we are to..." He looks to Ja'Mukar, "Have freedom, we must take that." He raises his head. "Dra'Rameethar offers this, yet a Kha' would reject it. If you want to hunt, Mukar, then go hunt. We must adapt to survive, and nobody is stopping you from collecting scorpion for breakfast. We are also surrounded by water, so grab a pole." "A Kharajyr who does not yet understand survival cannot tell us how to survive." He says directly to Ja'Mukar. "Fa yna fundro ihdem fa vyem." [we are worthy until we fail] "So we must try, and this one will try under the leadership of somebody strong." He gives Dra'Rameethar a firm nod of the head, before stepping back among whispering Kharajyr.

Well this was anticlimactic.
