Thanks for giving us a good fight man. The OOC hate that was between the different groups shouldn't really have happened, and I am ashamed of myself getting angry over something as trivial as this. Both of the sides of that war broke rules, and we shouldn't have cared about that ****. Looking back, the server has really not been the same without the Blackmonts. Looking over our shoulders every time we were traveling kept us on edge.

GG man, you did good.  

teuton flay war was best war

Crowley laughs, because the joke is on them. Setherin had them do his plumbing, but he didn't make them fix their floating towers. Your toilets do not work antags! 

"Killed Sha." says teuton

I like Timmy the Terribly. Or Sam the Sodomite. 

Berendan laughs, having heard about the story. "How long will she spread her legs for this time? An hour-10?"

True story! My life was good until this point, but with the voice of Romanen, I can safely say it's absolutely the same. 

"Burn heretical traitors!" Yells ex-teuton! 

Crowley adds his two cents. "In other words, and easier. He's basically talking about Jolly co-operating. Where two or more people team up to fight the evil of this world." 

See, the heat has been brought to the stove and the "smiley faces" have cracked. This will never achieve the status of a Socratic discussion. You all have dug your trenches and I repeat a question from earlier:

 

"Besides Dread Knight Verin, how many pro-gays actually participate in something in-real-life to aid their cause? I am just curious. Being a "trans/gay/hetero- resource" on the internet does not count."

Too be honest Gaius. I think the best way to support them is to not give a **** about it. They want to be normal, so I simply don't care. I feel like that's more supportive than going on campaigns of joy that just cause more problems. 

 

I'm treated with the same respect as anyone? Right, that's why I have to worry about being assaulted or harassed for using the bathroom, no matter which I use. Everyone has that experience, right? No? Hmm...

Your understanding of this "serious mental illness" seems to be pretty misinformed. Through several peer reviewed studies, it is clear that the brain structure of trans people align with their identified sex, not their biological sex. The brain is highly maliable, but not so much so as to overcome basic brain structure. It isn't an idea that can be wiped out with Eugenics. It's a biological condition that has always occured in a subset of the population, and will always occur in a subset of the population. And you call cultures with recognized third genders all over the world as not prominent? Two spirit, hijira, sekhet. Oh, and there are references to third genders all the way back in Sumerian writing. The oldest writing on the planet. We have always existed.

I thought you'd be giving me some reparative therapy bullcrap and would have to go over how, no, that doesn't work on trans people any more then it fails to work on people who are gay, but no. Instead I find you pointed me to a Eugenics institute. Are you serious? Do I even need to go over why Eugenics is wrong? I'm amazed anyone would seriously point to a Eugenics institute as a way to "clean up" trans people.

This is true. I would note that the DSM V does change how it lists trans people, however. Instead of listing actually being transgender as a disorder in and of itself, it instead lists gender dysphoria as a disorder, which I would say is correct. The problems caused by that disconnect remaining untreated are horrible.

If you feel like you're special. Why not go to the handicapped toilet? I'm not sure about the rest of you guys, but if I was a female, I wouldn't want a dude walking around the bathroom, and likewise with males. 

When you have a physiological dysfunction, you  obviously have a problem. So, what you all are saying, is that trannies have a huge problem. 

I support homosexuals in every way, as long as they're not screaming out loud and complaining about their issues. I know some perfectly cool homosexuals, you would never guess they were dipping their chips in the wrong bowl. 

Unfortunately, there's also the other ones. People who think being gay entitles them to change their voices to sound more feminine, run around with purses, and complain about being stepped upon. 

I feel like being a tranny goes under the latter. You're obviously not satisfied by what card you're dealt. Unfortunately, these kind of people are extremely expensive for society. In my country, trannies receive special care by our government. They use resources that could have been allocated to other more useful things, or could free up doctors that could save lives. 

Freya my dear, I play an assasin.. And after almost 2 years people still didn't know about me. But hey, its really a suprise when your patient finds himself chained and being tortured in the most non-bloody yet creative ways. I have had nothing but compliments for my random turn over to assasinations and abductions. If the right people reach me with the right contracts, consider it done.

So reconsider your argument!

Have you ever been banned or received a strike? If so, link the report:

Over my almost 3 years in this community, I've ever been banned once. There is no report, and I do not want to go public about the details. I can tell you, it was highly controversial. 

Do you hold any other staff positions?

Unfortunately, no. 

What are your characters? Are you willing to sacrifice any to become event team?

I currently play a human and an orc, I can be honest and say that I am decently attached to the first one, but I'd be willing to do so, unless it is to become an antagonist. To be honest I want to be one of the ET members who are not apart of the Scourge. 

What race/group do you think your events would cater to?

I think I can create RP for most factions to be honest. My Roleplaying skills are adapt, and I can do both peaceful and conflict RP. If I were to focus on anyone, I could easily do Human, orc and possibly elf RP. 

What do you believe is the key factor to an event?

To extend it as far as possible. Nobody likes an event that lasts for two minutes. Making it as long as possible, but not drawn out is in my opinion the key factor. People usually look forward to these events, and making it as fun as possible for them is the number one goal. 

When was the last time you saw an event?

Last time I saw an event would have to be the antagonist battle in snow elf lands?

What strengths can you bring to the event team? Are you knowledgeable of lore, or great at organizing? Tell us!

I am an extremely dedicated person, and will therefore spend much of my time on the server doing fun things for the community. In general I have no real "Skills" to speak of. I can lead, to some extent, I know most of the lore and I am also a decently capable RP'er. I guess you can call me a jack-of-all-trades. But what draws me out from the rest, is that I'm willing to spend a lot of my time doing this. 

Why do you want to be part of the event team?

To be perfectly honest, I spend way to much time on this server, and have come to enjoy it greatly. Last autumn I decided to sign up for the Norwegian Armed Forces, and with the threat of war looming closer, I want to give something back in the short amount of time I have left. I could apply for GM, but I think it would be more fun for the community if I went ET.

Create three distinct RP scenarios/ events that you would organize: 

1) 

The farmers plea: 

A young farmers livestock has been slowly killed and dragged off. He is distraught, his wife and children depends on him to feed them. He offers a small reward for helping him get rid of this creature that attack at night. He's not a very rich man, but promises to make it worthwhile. 

The small group of players follows carefully planted clues (Signs, most likely, or sounds), tracks, broken shrubs, etc. Eventually they would come across the creatures lair, a medium cave system filled with the bones of his prey. They would investigate this dark cave, torches held high as sounds of struggle and death can be heard from below. 

What they would find would presumably scare them, a bigger than normal Bohra, having fled south from the Scourge has set up camp in this cave. The remnants of both animals and also unfortunate adventurers who has crossed its path litter the ground in front of it. He's currently munching on the corpse of a pig, his back turned. 

The group would then attack, and have a good, prolonged RP fight in front of them. The players would eventually win, claiming the creatures head and any loot that remains in the cave. 

When they return to the grateful farmer, he thanks them and gives them the choice of some of his family heirlooms. His fathers old blade, an enchanted iron sword, a maple longbow, enchanted bow, or some diamonds he was going to give to his wife on their anniversary.

2)

Caravan business: 

This one will be more PVP oriented or RP oriented depending on the group. 

An official from your nation tells you that an enemy caravan (Either bandit or another nations) is on the way from the North to their nations capital, having claimed some items from the dead or antiques from the North. Your mission will be to find an adequate location for an ambush. 

The caravan will walk down the highway, knowing nothing of their impending doom. The fight will either be RP or PVP. 

Depending on how long they will take, they might be attacked by an harbinger at the same time, either creating a three front battle, or seeing the two enemy groups team up to fight the harbinger. 

It will either end with one of the parties dead, or the harbinger dead. If the third option is to happen, the caravan will see how futile it is to fight them, and offer their lives for their cargo. 

3) 

What lies forgotten: 

At the start of Anthos, the Teutonic Order unearthed a complex on the Northern border. The small expedition was destroyed, and the whole thing forgotten. Until now. Strange lights has been sighted, and an opening has been uncovered. Sounds of fighting has been heard, and a nation leader has decided to investigate. He sends a larger group of people to investigate. 

On entering the complex, you realize how old it is. The walls are crumbling, and it is lit up by these strange crystals. Sounds of battle are heard within, but when you get closer, it disappears. Your group realizes something is wrong when they get picked off one by one, their screams being heard. 

When your group has dwindled, you start seeing skeletons clad in chain mail and a faded tabard, the missing expedition. A ghost appears, telling them how they should have never come, and that this is a terrible, terrible place. He tells what he knew in life, how they had uncovered this, from what he can tell, tomb looking for places to build a defensive line against the North. The entrance had sealed when they were halfway through, fighting the corpses of the tombs previous inhabitants. 

He leads them through the rest of the tomb, into the inner chambers, giving them tips along the way to survive. 

In the end, they enter a medium chamber, tombs lining the walls. A larger coffin stands in front of them, open. A screech is heard as a creature appears before them. A lich. The party fights the lich, with the help of the ghost. The ghost tells them how to destroy it, and they manage to do so with casualties. 

After the lich is destroyed, they have to escape the place as it collapses around them, managing to escape. At the end, the ghost shows up again, handing them some items as a reward. 

The tomb will be sealed up by then. 

((This will require the help of a builder of course, and a decent amount of actors.)) 

How long do you plan to stay in the ET? 

With the current events in Europe, I will sadly not be able to be here for too long if it comes down to war. They will ship me off to basic, and I'll probably be sent to fight. I may or may not come back. If not, I have until August before they send me to basic. 

Tell me what you want from the ET? 

I want a serious, but friendly team that wants to create fun for people. To be honest, I'm not too happy about the way most of the ET is nowadays. They focus more on the Antags, than creating fun for the majority of players. 

Ex teuton who seemingly loves the White Roses goes to throw rocks at false pretender. 

"Chivays were cool people, go away!" He then runs off crying. 

To be honest, there are certain members of the antagonist team that's attitude is...lacking to say the least. The best thing to do would simply be to remove them. Don't want to throw out names, but if you're willing to enact this change, throw me a pm or send me a message on Skype.

If it helps, he doesn't go to the pesky workers union when his supervisors gives him inhuman work-hours. +1

I feel his attitude can be lacking at certain times, and that he hasn't been that long with us in recent times. -1

The call is heard through all of Anthos, Sariants are to return to the holy keep of Kreuzberg for further orders. Murmurs are heard as the remaining Sariants return to the fort, in smaller numbers than ever before.

OrdenMarschall Thorne stands at the front of the rallying grounds outside the Keep, hands locked behind his back. His helmeted head surveys his assembled brothers from on top of his tall shoulders, sighing almost silently in resignation. He clears his throat.

"Brothers and sisters of the Teutonic Order! I have fought alongside you for many decades! You're all accomplished warriors, trained in the art of war. Our victories have been sound, and our defeats have always been done in glory. Even after the great Hochmeister Mirtok DeNurem left us to fight the North have we prevailed! Leadership arose and our numbers have both risen and decreased! And now we stand at the end of the road. It is sadly a time for every warrior to relinquish their blades. Hang their shields over the fireplace. The show has gone on for a great amount of time. 

"The Hochmeister has been vacant for some time, his presence lacking. He surely has more important things to do, so I am making this decision. BUT! Your oath still stands. We are Sariants of the Teutonic Order, loyalty and honour lies in our name. If our Hochmeister decides to return, or any other events happen, you are honour bound to pick up your blade and fight in the name of the Order.

But for now, you are free to roam. The Order will rise again, but at a later date. I want you to relinquish your armor and tabard. Good luck to you brothers.!"

"BELIAE DOE KING, BELIAE DOE ORDEN!"

The cry is repeated and the Sariants moves towards the Ordenmarschall in an orderly fashion, armor and tabard is handed back and hands, hugs and salutes are traded. He salutes his brethren as they start to dissipate, storing all of the items in crates, along with all other sorts of memorabilia, banners flags and those sorts. 

The items are locked down in a secret location, ready to be dug up if the need arises. 

For now the Sariants rest until the need for them to reappear arises. 

That's what happens when you let the coders add whatever the **** they want to, seeing as most of the coders are antag oriented. I say fire the coder. 

Ordenmarchall Thorne grunts as he puts on pants.

If you look closely, you can see the almost finished masterwork that was called Greywynn.
