CadenIsCool

O_O This is beautiful.-Professional hero. ~C.C

1)MC Name & RP Name: Caden_Cathladus ---- Caden_Cathaldus 2)Chosen Patron: Aeriel 3)Reason For Joining (do not have the reason be to become Ascended): Caden has had a tumultuous existance. His family was caught in the cross-fire of a political battle between families. It would have been something Caden would have eventually gotten over, if not for the fact that he was accused of the murder that took place. This was the begin of Caden's life on the run, and his constant home turning, and travel. He eventually joined up with a halfling named Sillion, a man who considers himself the greatest surgeon in Aegis. This was a small spark that started his interest in the medical field. A long, unfurling chain of events, lead to a tragic event that changed Caden forever, for better or for worse. It lead to the destruction of most of Caden's arms, parts of his skull, and several incidents of internal damage. Sillion was forced to operate, using a risky procedure known only as biomechanical enhancement, a process of using Sillion's life-force, druidic power, and metal augmentations to spark mechanisms that controls parts of Caden's body. In the end, Caden was just as much machine as man ((Admin approved before anyone asks)) and was reborn, a new man. In the process, Caden lost much of his memory, the extent of which is still not known. Caden continued to work with Sillion on a new project, utilizing the technology that was keeping him alive, and so much more, to better all of Aegis, also know as the Aegis Healing Consortium. But, Caden was hollow, devoid of something. He seeks to learn the ways of the cleric, not only to help better all of Aegis, but to help himself, and he feels this is the best way., enlightening himself in the ways of good, and gods. 4)Race: High Elf 5)Flaws in Your Character: Sluggish, and loud. He also has a tendency to hold vicious grudges, and has a small ego problem. The later two he hopes to rectify in this service 6) How long have you been on the server:About two months after release of the server. Scenario Questions-Answer how you would react to each situation. 7) You notice an Apprentice Shade harassing a lowly citizen. [shades Are Evil Mages] I would observe until it escalated into verbal abuse, or physical. I would then approach, speaking calmly for him to stop. If he does not comply, I will ask once more, in a less kind tone, and then set myself into a battle stance, fists raised. This is mostly for intimidation effect, seeing a 6 and half foot elf partially made of bronze in a violent stance normal knocks the gall out of any normal criminal. But, if he enacts any more violence towards me or the peasant,I will incapcitate the man or woman to the best of my abilities (I have a large knowledge of the Aegian anatomy from my studies with Sillion) normal going after a pressure points, cutting off circulation to knock them out. Once they are incapcitated, I will lay them somewhere safe, and wait for the authorities, and in the mean time, comfort the harassed citizen. 8) You see a small child shivering in the snow. I would first observe them, making sure they are not the fodder for some bandit scheme. Despite how cruel this may be, it's simply second nature to me now. I would then approach, hopefully not scaring him off due to my appearance. If he does not run, I will ask in a tone I normally reserve for patients on the cusp of death, and situations like this, where his mother and father is. If he replies with a location, I will escort him to the best of my abilities, probably on my shoulders for protection. If he simply says he does not know, it's a bit more complicated. I would probably offer him some food, some soup or a slice of melon, sit with him on his level, preferably somewhere warm nearby, and ask him about somewhere he could go. If he doesn't answer with a place. I would escort him to local authorities to give him a bed and food. Or, to the Clerical order, for apprentice-hood. 9) You are walking down the road when a bandit stops you and threatens to kill you if you don't give him all your money and valuables. This is the trickiest. I would obviously at first be compelled to kill him, it's simply my knee-jerk reaction to lowlife. But, I've changed, so I believe I would at first just talk to him. Ask him quickly, but gently why he's doing this. The answer will always be to survive, always. I was in a situation like the bandit before, I understand why. When he answers, I will tell him about the beauty of Aegis, about the possibilities, about how many ways he could use his obvious talents with a weapon for good, not evil. If my coercing doesn't work, I will simply hit him quickly, probably the throat or groin if it;s a man, and run. 10) As you walk through the local market place a person begins to yell that Aeriel and the other patrons are weak and cruel and claims that joining Iblees is the only way to survive. This kind of thing typically stirs strife in a crowd, I would be able to tell that the mood was shifting, people beginning to get angry at everything going wrong in the world. I would first climb to a vantage point, preferably a flat roof top, or the pinnacle of a lamp. I would then cry for silence. My voice has an odd quality from the proceudres on my face, so I would probably get silence on my first attempt. "People! Don't listen to what your mind may tell you, that Aeriel has given up on you, that God has moved on, and forgotten about our strife, and our cause! Well, They have not, adn they watch upon you as I speak, and I know a fwe things. Namely, to lsiten to what your heart says, that Aeriel and God watch upon you, and can only do so much! WE must rally, as one, as a whole and push back against the scourge this man is claiming will help us! Iblees is not the answer, the lgiht always will!" As I finish, I will slide down, and take questions, answering the nagging feelings of hopelessness among the people. 11) A person walks up and asks you, "Why does God allow suffering to continue?" I will clasp my bronze arms onto their shoulders, and look them in the eyes. Then say with full sincerity, "It is simple my friend, quite simple indeed. We live in a world where we are being tested, where we are looked upon for the next life. So when we pass, our true mettle will have been proven over our life. Things may be bad, but they will get so much better, all you must do is hold your chin up. Your true strength is shown facing suffering, how you compose your emotions in such a way that proves you're a worthy person, one that holds God in your heart, and walks into strife with open eyes, and an even more open heart. Stay strong my friend, do it for yourself, and for God." I would then nod, and move on.

Right. I know I shouldnt expect you to change your mind about your own idea, I'm just trying to tell everyone why I think they shouldn't vote for Kaharajyr. I WANT a new race, totally, but something more fantasy like, and something that makes sense to Minecraft, like my ideas on my ideas for Aegis 2.0 post, like goblins who live in caves, trolls who live in dense forests, and fairies that live in the mushroom biome. I cant see where the Kaharajyr would live. If anything, different biomes could suffice for it; snow cats, desert cats etc. But I cant find this idea anywhere in my range of what I would accept for a race on the server. It's like Pawnstars, (lol, why bring that up here?) I'm the dealer telling you the flaws of your merchandise (race), and you're the customer continuously telling me that his product is worth more (that the race should be implemented). (I want you to know, the statement above sounded dicky, but I didnt mean for it to sound that way.) I'm just trying to tell you that I, and many others wont support the race. As much as I dont want it to get implemented, at least I hope your RP experiences in LOTC are better than ever!

Thanks, I feel kinda honored! I enjoy conflicting opinions, and my main fear was, a flame war was going to start, and I've been in one of those, and it isnt fun. So I'm glad we can get on a nice level/level conversation. Now, I didnt point out some of my other opinions on this race idea, so if I may: *Straightens a stack of papers and puts reading glasses on* I'm kinda confused about Kaharajyr in general. So, if they aren't based on Kahjits, they're based on cats. But.... cats dont even exist in LOTC (I love how I refer to it as a game. It honestly is a game within a game (If I hear one damn "GAMECEPTION HURRR DURR on here, I'll be angry) or at least desrves to be one), nor Minecraft itself. One thing (in your original post) that actually made me OOC pissed off at you was the way I read your donator thing. Basically, it seemed like "Hey, I donated $200, so, can I make up a race, now?". I'm not saying thats what you SAID, because I do often misinterpret what people post, but it seemed quite a bit like it to me. Again, a really appreciate your maturity about my criticisms, but currently (the last time I saw it) the Pro and Anti Kaharajyr bars are tied. However, I did vote against Kaharajyr. It wouldn't fit in LOTC to me. As I said, something more universally fantasy style (fairies, goblins, trolls, etc.) as a race I wouldnt support nor go anti on. But still, if you want to end this here, we can, or if you want to keep talking , go ahead :)

I really enjoy your effort, it's just....... ugh.... I just dont WANT this race implemented. I mean, you have really put alot of effort and lore into it, but no matter how much I try, and even WANT to embrace the idea, I just keep looking at it the same way: (call me closed minded if you want, but I'm getting to my reasons)A copy of the Kahjit. They share a similar name, a similar body, similar things in some parts of lore, and Christ, even your profile picture is a Kahjit from The Elder Scrolls. I just find it plagiaristic. I find the Dark Hand actually, quite a bit plagiaristic, but I mean its only a guild (kind of like my view on the Holmes). But this is an entire RACE, and would be a HUUUUUUGE thing in the server. I mean, people will PLAY as these. And sure, elves, dwarves, and orcs are plagiaristic.... but so many forms of media use them, it's truly hard to call it plagiarism. Cat people exist in other media, just not in the context of the Kharajyr. It's clear you got the idea from The Elder Scrolls series. I mean, I love the idea of another race, but I have certain STANDARDS, and I hope the GMs have similar views on this race. I know this guild is flooded with comments, but I hope this one gets some attention, whether you like me OOC or not. However, I digress, my views on new race ideas are: 1) Be COMPLETELY original! If you steal something like an orc or an elf, that's okay, because its so commonly used in many forms of media. 2) Make sure that you have a large amount of people you know are going to play as your new race. If you're going to make a race of, lets say, flying monkeys; well, you better damn well be sure the LOTC community likes flying monkeys, or your hard work=NOTHING. 3) Dont run around talking about your race every six seconds. I'm guilty of over advertisement of my former guild the RCM, so DONT DO THAT. People dont like you saying "Hey wanna be part of my bull***t?". It's annoying to me and everyone else. So, I'm ending this post for right now, but please respect what I say,as I have respected what YOU say. I would like comments on my opinions, agreements/disagreements, whatever. Races that I would like to personally see include: 1) Fairy like people. I dont know about this one, but it could give some frackin' awesome race benefits. 2) I've seen RP friendly golems (stone people), but it would be cool to see them as a race. I think they would be too similar to the orcs though, so I'm kinda' criss-crossy on this one. 3) Fish people? I've heard someone talk about this before, but it would be cool to see some fish men (NOT ARGONIANS)! 4) Other trademark medieval-y stuff, like goblins, trolls, etc. On another note, I'm going to be posting a "Your suggestions for Aegis 2.0" page! Hurry up, Aegis 2.0 is COMING!

*You see a poster outside the city of Laurelin, and right outside the gaseous airways of Al'Khazar, and the still intact orcish and dwarven cities. It is a notice with large red AHC letters stamped on it. A stamp familiar to most.* Well everyone these times are rough. With a (supposed) giant flying creature in Laurelin, a crumbling poisoned Al'Khazar, and disease, insanity, and curses running rampant, it is a hard time for a healing organization. We are offering free healing services to anyone, and encouraging the people injured or cursed by black magic when fighting the Undead forces, or the (supposedly real) dragon beast, to come to our healing base on top of the mountain in the city of New Oasis inside the Verge. *You see a map of the Verge and a line from the entrance to New Oasis*((X=-255, Z=-10)) Also, if you have any ailment and wish to help us benefit in research, the AHC would appreciate all help as long as you sign a contract to let us test on you. On another note, if you are looking for a job and you are an experienced doctor, you may apply at the unfinished AHC base. On the last note, if you have any information about the alleged dragons, or any way, magical or otherwise to rid the Oren area of the noxious gasses, PLEASE contact Sillion Luthais ((Ohaythar121)) or show up at the AHC base in person.

*Hears the orc child's words whilst he is handing out the pamphlets* *Caden decides to confront him, as he has been told this many times* NO! The whole point is, we're a HEALING facility that offers healing services to anyone, and jobs to anyone interested in science, biology, or resource gathering and protection! We arent going to kill someone because they're suffering something that SEEMS un-cure-able! We'll find a way. The only way we'll ever kill him is if he turns full Enderman. Then he would have to die. *Walks off, ignoring any other words the orc says.*

ATTENTION AEGIS I am passing out these new pamphlets as a new informational guide to the new medical innovations of Aegis. I am Caden Cathaldus, from what I hear a medical miracle, and the leader of a certain branch of a medical guild. Today, the second ever Augumented man in history was augumented! These medical advancements are very VERY good for the Aegisian science! I just wanted to hand this put to everyone to let them know, that even among the fact that this Ender person is hindering us, we are getting strunger and smarter. AHC

I'm the soon to be leader of the BPW.

Hey guys. Just a heads up, I'm going to be part of this guild. No details, its a suprise only me n' Sill know what Im going to be like :twisted:
