  1. Take note: excluding a race from your capital city is bad for the production of roleplay.

  2. Scythes are not used for combat. I hope I won't be seeing a lot of people using them for such.

      When I mean lop-sided and heavy I mean theres a giant sheet of metal sticking out of the side of a large wooden stick; that is a scythe. An axe is heavy, but to balance it is much, much easier. Thats why axes were used as weapons, because their balance and weight gave an advantage.

      You cannot possibly make a good four attacks with a scythe without straining yourself, it's too lop-sided and doesn't work properly.

      Billhook started off as a tool but was later used as a weapon against armoured knights. It's slightly similiar to a scythe, but not by much.

      I imagine scythes or any other farming tools with blades would be used for combat by farmers or angry peasant mobs, so it can be used as a make-do weapon.

  3. This "1+" gimmick that has often been made a trend in threads that invite support is becoming redundant. Is proper, literary feedback impossible for some folk?

  4. Why is Iblees called the "Arch-Daemon"? The title of Arch implies a leadership role, much like Aerial or Gazardiael were Archaenguls (I may be mistaken for Aerial), as they had other Aenguls beneath them with similar goals and ideals. Iblees, however, has no one but himself and maybe Ikuras, and a single seperate Daemon does not register him as a valid Arch-entity. He would be the opposite, in fact. He's a fallen immortal.

  5. I'm curious to hear the outlook on an event that would bring catastrophic changes - for example, a manevolent figure of dark power attains a means to shut off all access to the Void, or cuts the ties of the Gods off from the world, which prevents their respective groups (all Mages, Voidal and Divine) from channeling power. Let's say this lasts for a month total. Any opinions on such a thing?

      As a Blood Mage I feel establishing an RP presence needs doing, but no self teaching. It's perfect as it is guild locked.

      The issue with guild locking is that it has to allow other guilds/cults to learn it too, otherwise it turns into a circle jerk of bias special snowflakes.

Whoever is familiar with the Lord of the Rings Urukhai and Dragon Age Darkspawn will know what I refer to when I say such a similar entity will be created, but I have been without a proper individual to sacrifice their time, character and dedication for the role. So, I wish to see who is interested by opening the offer publically. Anyone interested?

      I have a character that would fit the role just right. An ambitious human who has no money yet holds himself above others like him or even other better than him. He already does some terrible things to get money. . .it'd be easy to manipulate him into this.

      Swgrclan actually made me put a lot more thought into it just now, and I have definitely come to see what he means much more. It really doesn't make any sense whatsoever. In LoTC, Gods are real. There is no need for faith because there is hard evidence to their existence. This is completely in opposition to what the christian faith is, which is just that, faith. Why would these followers suddenly conjure up something that doesn't exist (they simply believe it to) when there are many real and powerful beings they know do? It doesn't make any sense in the slightest if you were to imagine yourself in that world.

      Because, those who play Humans in their roleplay enterprise chose to mock very closely an IRL religion. They have that ability upon registering for Lord of the Craft, to bring in whatever elements they feel. Very few authors in real life get away with highfalutin fantasy and even then, with a very small niche that typically are not grounded in realistic standards to begin with. (I am thinking RA Salvadore). The folks roleplaying humans were either very basic and realistic or just damn clever for picking something that most regular folks would be inclined to replicate through roleplay.

  13. https://www.lordofthecraft.net/topic/97770-the-aengudaemon-lore/ After re-reading this officiated lore out of curiousity, I noticed a specific rule mentioned in the 8th paragraph that suggested divines who touch down upon the mortal realm are forced to conform to the power level of a regular mortal mage. Following this logic, why was Iblees capable of devastating an entire swathe of land (the Druidic Grove and it's entire tree), take the Aspect Stones and then vanish immediately after in...

      present. However the lasting effect (mechanical use i.e. killbox region) was just slapped on and in hindsight likely a move too far. And as well, on another note, the powers at play (the Aspect Stone, Krug's Axe aka Malchediael, and Iblees) were all not foreshadowed very publicly and left not everyone present comprehending what has occurred.

      Lilith was broken by the Axe of Courage while holding the Aspect Stone which was also broken by the same swing. That caused a big tussle, including Lilith being shredded and being taken by the Aspects (?), Malchediael awakening from his previous state, and Iblees having to in turn run off with Malchediael. It was messy and quick, but there was no soul-chomping, only the degradation of the grove.

      Tanya, it's against the rules for people to bring up monk resurrections in roleplay. It's really stupid imo - Though it could've been changed. Not sure, I haven't touched that section in a while.
