  1. So let me go down the line
    I wanna feel it all
    Joy, pain, and sky
    So let me go down the line
    We all burn, burn, burn and then die

  2. Inside, we both know what's been going on

  3. “The Canonist nations must be united against those, especially non-human, who seek to disturb the peace within our realm. I side with those who may be misguided in their faith over tree stump-sized men that pray to drawings on walls,” said Lorenz Gavaudin as he pondered the issue of the devolving Norland-Urguan situation.

Wars must be grounded in mutual OOC respect. SIMPLICITY: Follow the spirit of the rules, not the word of the law—these rules create an environment for fun and organic war (no loopholing!) DYNAMIC: You may run wars any way you choose. If both sides agree, they may (at any point during the war) add, remove, or update any of the rules below. Justifications For War War is often cruel and arbitrary. Nations may declare war freely at their own peril. They do, however, need to follow a declaration format. Method of War Declaration When a war is declared, you must write a post declaring such. Within the post, include your war goal. Free Will You may run wars any way you choose. If both sides agree, they may (at any point during the war) add, remove, or update any of the rules below. 1. If both parties agree, you may run a war based on an entirely separate set of war rules. It’s your call. If neither side comes to such an agreement then the provided war rules serve as a fallback. 2. You may make alterations at any point throughout the war—the only condition is that both sides must agree. Additions and revisions to the rules will last for the duration of the war.
  8. Making posts like this is silly, it's not going to get the right attention you want nor is it going to force our hand into changing the rules. I've posted some proposed changes that a few other mods and I workshopped in the mod team discord, in hope of ensuring consistent rulings and easy understanding for players. In the future, I advise reaching out to the mods and asking for an explanation behind their rulings. If you're not satisfied with their response, come to me. I don't appreciate posts like this because: 1.) they're one-sided, and 2.) leave out a fair bit of information. It's obvious that the full story isn't present in each of the scenarios you describe.

  10. favorite memory was my romance debacle @ErikAzogdefinitely remembers this yep I think my favorite thing about LotC is its history. The reason why every other server fails (including my own) is because it usually isn't seen as a permanent alternative to LotC. We've got an amazing history that we've forged on this server, both IC and OOCly, and that trumps every other attempted server start-up Something I'd like to see in the community's future is a gradual step away from the cancel culture that I think we as the administration have catered to. Hey! No I think you're funny depends on your plugins and player count Lot of people ask me this. It was just fun for the dwarves to have something other than some lame ass deeproads event. I just wanted to give the dwarves events when they kinda got screwed over by 501forehead for the 4.0 athera ancient city eventline. 1. If I had to change something about lotc it would be admin approval. I think it's good in the sense that it makes sure we're all on board for a given decision, but it also sometimes stops good change from happening. Admin approval forces a middle-ground approach, and we end up with very complicated CIA-psyop rules/systems. 2. A current goal in real life is to pass my CPA exam. Unironically, and this might sound cringe, but the thing that keeps me going is something I did freshman year of college. In my first business class, they asked us to write what we want in life on a notecard, and I wrote down "happiness" and kept it in my wallet. I still have it 4 years later and it probably matters more than anything in my wallet atm. On a minecraft note, I would also like to experience being a player again. I think people see me as attempting to use my administrative position to influence RP. I really just want my humble orenian roleplay again. Sometimes I'm too out of touch with the server and actually playing it helps me regain my touch. 3. Cat because they're cute :ppppp 4. I think every time I play is my favorite time on the server. I always feel like I'm in control of my RP and my own story, both OOCly and RPly. I need another one bro
  11. (a depiction of the treaty being signed in the Temple of the Exalted Prophets of the Canon, Aaun) THE KOENG OF HAENSE Lorenz Gavaudin of Adria 11th of Sun's Smile 1932 IC | 136 SA PRAISE BE to the Lord Almighty GOD himself, the highest authority under which we all humbly kneel! His power is greater than any King, Queen, Prince, Duke, and Monarch — his law transcends ALL laws of men. We are moved to speak of the recent treaty signing. It is common knowledge that any monarch should kneel before the Lord Almighty, taking an oath prior to the ratification of such a momentous document. However, during this recent ceremony, the Koeng of Haense, in a startling twist, chose his pregnant wife to perform this sacred duty in his stead, citing the absence of the Duke Johannes of Adria. Let it be known, Canonist of the realm, that no guarantee or necessity of his presence was made. The envoys of Adria eagerly knelt in oath before GOD alongside the pregnant Queen of Haense who knelt before God to take the oath in her obstinate husband’s stead. Yet, as she fulfilled her husband's duty, he stood by, even neglecting basic chivalric code that requires him to assist his pregnant wife in standing up! Having watched his wife kneel and swear an oath on his behalf, he stepped forward to sign the treaty. An act that was to be the Queen's, as she had taken the oath for herself. But no, Koeng Aleksandr II, without a sliver of hesitation, claimed this act as his own, asserting his dominance and authority. Moreover, King Aleksandr blatantly disregarded the numerous pleas echoing, including by Arch-Duchess Renilde I, within the sacred walls of the church, urging him to let his cherished Queen affix her signature to the treaty. It would appear that he deemed himself too dignified to kneel before GOD and that he alone possessed the worthiness to sign the esteemed document. What does this chain of events reveal to us? Are these the actions of a king who embodies justice, respect, and dignity? Do these actions speak of a king that wants peace? A king who respects the sanctity of age-old customs? A king who acknowledges the worth of his queen and treats her with the kindness and assistance she deserves, especially in her vulnerable pregnant state? DESPITE THESE FACTS, let us pray fervently for the tranquility and prosperity that the newly signed Pax Canonis affords. Let us pray for the strength to remain true to our beliefs, our customs, and our nation, no matter the challenges we face. Lorenz Gavaudin

  14. UPKEEP Original: Monetary Upkeep To keep your land, you need to pay a monetary upkeep. The cost of this upkeep depends on the type of tile you own. Your capital tile has no upkeep; Additional core tiles cost 200 minas each, and; Exterior tiles cost 75 minas each. Update: Monetary Upkeep To keep your land, you need to pay a monetary upkeep. The cost of this upkeep depends on the type of tile you own. Your capital tile has no upkeep; Additional core tiles cost 150 minas each, and; Exterior tiles cost 50 minas each. Rational: Originally too expensive. REALM OWNERSHIP AND EXPANSION RULES Original: Expansion If you want to expand your realm, you will need to pay for expansion. 3,000 minas to purchase an exterior tile. 2,000 minas to upgrade an exterior tile to a core tile. To purchase a tile, it must border one of your core tiles, or at least two exterior tiles. Tiles bordering another realm’s capital may not be purchased without their consent. Tiles cannot be redrawn or split. Update: Normal Expansion If you want to expand your realm, you will need to pay for expansion. 3,000 minas to purchase an exterior tile. 2,000 minas to upgrade an exterior tile to a core tile. To purchase a tile, it must border one of your core tiles, or at least two exterior tiles. Tiles bordering another realm’s capital may not be purchased without their consent. Tiles cannot be redrawn or split. --- Exclave Expansion An exclave is a region that is completely disconnected from your capital tile. It must have at least one core tile, designated as its capital, and functions as a vassal with a separate roleplay leader. Expansion and upkeep costs are doubled. Rational: Updating to adjust to our incoming war rules.

  16. Quavinir Signus and I knew each other from a Factions server. He told me about LotC and wrote my app and made my skin. I was his nephew IC, “Redmond Signus”
  17. Hi everyone! If you're wondering why it's not my actual 10 year AMA and actually my 10 year, 2 months, and 21 day AMA, it's because I forgor I joined in early Anthos, became a GM in 2016, ET Director in 2017, and then left in September 2017 until August 2020. Became a mod again in September 2020, then became Admin in November 2021 Ask me anything!
  18. Because that violated EULA
  19. Crazy stuff Server doesn't even make much money and yet we want to talk about reducing its income (if we reduce its income, there is a chance that there will be no server at all) PK your persona and make a new one if it's really that deep
