“How the mighty have fallen.” comments Lerald

Lerald is very happy to see his zealous brother become a knight at such a young age after all the work he has put into it. “I’m proud of you, Ulric. This is just the beginning of your story!”

“I love feasts... Especially the free food and booze...” says Lerald before writing the date down and informing his family of the feast.

((Whats the point of capturing and killing important people if they are never gonna pk, props to those that do but theres way too many that decide to avoid consequence rp by not pking which ruins the flow))

((What's the point in making a dumb list of people you think should pk because you executed them. Yes, it should be encouraged to pk your character if you are executed with enough rp, but you can’t force people to. I think it’s just as dumb to use other throw-away personas just to avoid having to deal with this kind of pressuring.))

If you are interested in highlander rp I’d check out Haense or Curon. Renatus would probably be your best bet if you are looking for more of a heartlander experience. Feel free to add me on discord if you are interested in playing a highlander, I'll be glad to help you get started. (Flapman#1453)

Lerald curses after the loss of yet another Knight Paramount.

“We live in confusing times...” Lerald comments. “It just shows the desperation of these rebels, having to rely on lies and propaganda. I'm glad most are able to see through the falsehoods.”

“Good to see our elven friends joining the good cause!” Says Lerald with a grin after reading the statement.

“Who?” asks Lerald

How much do you think you are going to regret coming back?

Lerald sighs as he reads his nephew’s letter. “I'm glad to see that he still has some of the honor I used to see in him left. What kind of mental state would drive a man turn on his his family and his realm?” He shakes his head and taps his chin. “I pray that Godan forgives him for his crimes.”

Welcome back!

If you have any questions or are looking for people to rp with feel free to hit me up.

I completely agree, but I don’t think there is a possible set of rules that doesn’t allow any loopholes.

In a perfect world we would let the rp decide the consequences for an ooc tool that is used to simulate something in rp (like regions and regionowners). The problem is that many people have both rp and ooc interests in a certain outcome so I don't see any way of objectively judging an rp situation. the people in our server staff are also just players with their own interests and biases. Even if we did have an impartial party to look at a situation there could be a virtually endless list of factors that both sides of a conflict could bring up because the rp is just a very simple simulation.

The only thing I could see improving situations like this is promoting rp as a journey instead of the pursuit of an ooc motivated goal. I’m sure most, if not all of us have at some point caught ourselves holding an ooc grudge towards another group of people because of rp. I think this ooc reaction to things happening to us in rp is a very natural reaction, but it can be controlled by being aware that it’s happening.

Not only is this healthier for our community as a whole, but it’s also much better for players on an individual level. I can remember many occasions that I had to deal with meme rp by people we were fighting in rp. People refuse to rp normally out of spite and maybe in an attempt to distance theirselves ooc from their ic character’s misfortune. I can admit I’ve also done this. The most fun I've had on the server however were conflicts that didn't carry over ooc and I believe the main reasons for that were the low tension in ooc chats and that both parties tried to rp normally.

I think the best thing we as individuals can do is try to set an example, because your actions will always reflect back in one way or another. I’m personally trying to be more focussed on just having my fun with rp, I’m not saying I’m not falling back in bad habits every once in a while, but even just trying already makes a difference.

“Now there’s a man I can support!” Lerald cheers.

Lerald regrets visiting Ves and missing the epic brawl. “Ofcourse I miss the first exciting thing to happen in Reza in months...”

Lerald mourns for House Kovachev.

Lerald curses as he cuts his thumb on the edge of the paper.
