  1. I wouldn’t honestly know because the voidal magic “community” if there even is one seems so pale and boring that it just doesn’t appeal. This piece appeals, and provides voidal mages a “goal” of sorts, and could definitely be more restricted and gate-kept to prevent the issues of getting it just to flex. I see time and time again voidal mages casting magic just to cast and flex, and while that isn’t incredibly fun and is simply snobby, I do think archons could provide plenty of concepts that would be neat. A true mage’s guild with actual “masters”, them being these archons, and the guild would stand out wholly more than any “schools” we have right now. A little flavor here-and-there to these absolutely empty magics would just be nice. But I’m not a voidal mage and probably never would be, so ultimately it’s just hopes to see another group get some cool end-goals other than “i am t5 in fifteen magics”

    The Summons

    Somewhere in the world, a Kharajyr Herald of Azdromoth lay suspended by chains in the center of a pentagram, surrounded by dark beasts when the roar shook the world. Beaten and battered, he hangs tormented – alive – but unable to answer the call. Matorak was interrogating him, and the world’s secrets were then known. He hungers.
  5. alphamoist spitting facts Real talk tho if you play any race for the benefit of its mechanics, you’re not in it for the RP – obviously. That’s not a good thing, especially as a CA; play the CA for its uniqueness IRP, give people reasons to not gut and skin you, and you’ll have a fun time RPing and it’ll be fun for them too if you’re doing it right.
  6. The worst part is when you capture somebody for high crimes they committed through villainy, try to remove their hands but not kill them so they don’t have to deal with it, and then they lose one hand and bleed out from the other (despite medical RP in a clinic with everything you need to survive) and emerge from Cloud Temple with Captain Black Beard’s sword-peg arm-stump so they can be cooler. Then, they come right back and do it again – except they kill someone with their stump-sword-arm. Hahaha

  13. @Esterlen Sure, the ‘theme’ is in the eye of the beholder, but let’s be real – LoTC is named after LoTR and thematically meshes Elder Scrolls-LoTR. Gunpowder weaponry is fine to an extent. I personally am perfectly fine with primitive rocket artillery, cannons, mortars, etc .. but I think there’s a fine threshold where guns should be disallowed. Small arms and cannons are two hugely different things, and the more you slip and allow people to carry around matchlock guns, the more likely it is you find someone stuffing a lead pipe with gunpowder and nails, and killing you with a rudimentary blunderbuss like we’re playing Rust. As Hanrahan describes it, you roll for damage at 2 blocks .. a blunderbuss, realistically, would kill you or cripple you at that range 20/20 times. We can nerf guns all day, but that too lacks immersion. If guns are implemented I want to see people’s limbs blown off, weapon seizure and failure killing the user or dismembering them, instant 20/20 roll headshots – nerfing guns to put them in is just silly, and it should be viewed the same way as magic: if you’re nerfing it, should it really be implemented? You’re quite literally creating the “glass cannon” LT doesn’t like, but that’s beside the point. What do we do when a serpentine cannon is built and rolled into Nauzica Square? That’s a medieval design, and eviscerates infantry. Case and point, it’d be a hell storm. “I don’t get a say over the fact that you role-play a bipedal, talking cat, no matter how much it might break my immersion or be misaligned with my view of the server theme.” This isn’t comparable at the end of the argument – guns are implemented to end characters and kill them: if something is implemented simply to, in a new way, kill a character (and that is its sole purpose) should it really be added? Probably not, unless it’s providing value otherwise. Weapons like small arms guns should not be allowed, while cannons should be allowed for events, warclaims, etc. Maybe a few early hand cannons could be added with LT approval like dwarven flamethrowers, but for everyone and their mother to have a musket? Honestly meh
  14. No. I play LoTC for the fantasy qualities, and firearms break a level of immersion into that fantasy aspect I don’t desire. The powdered wig flintlock RP push is goofy and doesn’t align with the server theme.
