"Our paths will surely cross again." A man with a bandage strapped over his silky black hair spoke, in a tone not much louder than a susurration. It was merely a soft whisper, to himself, as he stopped in his endless steps for a single moment. He cast his gaze into the horizon looming way ahead of him, before setting out again, to wander aimlessly.

Yaan watches in awe over the explosion that shines before the small group, painting the sky in hues blue. The ground rumbled beneath the five figures, as they viewed the arcane explosion ripple open the face of the island, possibly grandiose enough to cause a voidal node to form. "Magnificent! Splendid! A masterpiece!" He burst out in shallow laughter, gazing over the cerulean horizon. "..but this is only the beginning."

Is the popular opinion on monsters and higher beings really; "If I can't beat it 1v1, it's bad?"
Talking about Keepers, Wraiths, Dragons, Voidal horrors, et cetera.

@Mephistophelian You are making an unfair analogy. It is not at all fair to compare an Rp environment to a story where there are protagonists, antagonists, a story arc, it's not real time with actual people, etc.
The problem that I have with a lot of 'evil' monsters, a problem that lots of others seem to have is well is their complete "win or lose" state. As it stands, you can either kill a dark being easily or you cannot kill it at all. There are singular ways to beat big scary dark magic things, and this usually relies on having your own big scary holy magic things. It's not fun to be presented with a random insurmountable challenge that is only defeated if somebody else steps in and one shots it, especially when a large part of the server (looking at Oren) has a tendency to dislike such magical crap to begin with.

The issue is that some people on this server think this server is a cross between world of warcraft and some faction server.
They only play to PVP and steal items from people. I should know, I've been killed for my items about more then three times in only a few days.
We need rules that ban people who do the "minas or die RP" or the "pvp default" rp. RP default needs to make a comeback and the players that play on LOTC to pvp and not to RP need to be punished for PVP defaulting.

As a person who has RPed both a 'dark being' and a 'normal person', before, I can tell you that it does /seem/ like there are no ways to kill 'dark beings' whilst there are actually many. One of the best ways is to not run straight into danger 'for glory'. I think it's perfectly fine that every 'hero' is met with doom when they try the same technique over and over against the villain. Harry Potter beat Voldemort because he did things differently, overall. Yes yes, he was also Chosen, but he did things differently.
Besides, what is this opinion of "It kills me OR I kill it"?? What happened to maiming and leaving alive? Or an equal battle? You don't need to be a big shot to be clever. It is very often that a 'dark being' can be killed in exactly the same way as a normal person, but the stigma around them is simply one of "We must attack now". Want to kill a dark being? Face them as you would IRL. Yes, IRL. Would you charge straight into battle against a misty dark thing that raises corpses? If so, R.I.P. my friend! If not, you're all good! Run away in fear! Running is always a good option. Cowards are more common than brave people; it's a fact. Though not on LotC. Over here, it's fight or die. Or whine that it wasn't fair.
There is no shame in running.

It's good! But how to limit it not to be spammable, because it's purpose isn't to play strip poker with the enemy right?

Certainly good lore, good to see a bit of history in the mix to see where it came from. Would love to see this accepted. I was doubting the focus crystals' purpose at first, as they could be changed to pretty much anything mana-conducting, like arcaurum dust. But your reply to it was on point, and I see the logic behind them.

A friend has passed on.
Trips replied to Will (TauFirewarrior)'s topic in News & Announcements Archive
This is the worst news I've heard in a while. He was way too young to depart this world, with many things ahead of him too. I hope he managed to finish his book, and I hope he didn't leave with regrets. He was a good friend, a good event creator, a good leader and overall a good man. May He rest in peace, and live on in our memories. -
Let's Talk; The Magic Plugin & Magic in General
Trips replied to 501warhead's topic in News & Announcements Archive
I think you should just release the plugin and prove that it exsists. As long as it has atleast a single spell of each subtype, it will be welcomed with open arms. Have it on the server for a week or two, see how it acts with the server (lag and such) and works with the commmunity and then act accordingly. -
the ban on dunamis is just another disgraceful display from the mod team, absolutely appalling. To me it seems like the staff refuses to listen to any party involved because it's simply so hard to have power and be neutral at the same time. Im completely uninvolved with dunamis, but im pretty sure this isnt the first time a staff team targets a group of players. People throwing junk out of a chest some time after using fast travel results in. A four week ban? Thats something you would give a warning or a few days at most. Unbelievable behaviour.

Yo, it's your local skin genius Trips here. Anyways, the deal is that I'm going to make some skins, but the plan is only to make some because I'm lazy and I have very limited time so the number might be under ten. The skins can be anything you want, but a skin costs a very fixed amount of 999 minas! Jheeze what a discount! Below thousand! I'll be working on the skin until it satisfies you. Word of warning; I rarely do female skins. Here're some examples.. (Yes I am aware the compilation looks like it was made very quickly, but I'm a busy man.) More skins at; http://www.planetminecraft.com/member/triplewing/ Anyways, post a description, slap in some reference pictures, I don't care as long as you can muster out something to make a skin out of and you got the moneyses? Did I mention I also do character art for the exact same price, aint that nice?

Enigmatic posters have been spread throughout alleways and poor areas of each human town, they seem tortured by the weather, but still readable. Each of them depict a figure dressed in curious feathered robes, finished with a mask that carried a vague avian resemblance to it. You could barely read the smudged text of the tattered flier, but you could grasp the idea quite easily. As you examined the poster further, its back contained more detail; -OOC- Reply to this with your IGN and your character's name.

As to what has been said about a "slight upper hand", I personally think that should shift with the ownership of that one very special artifact

Ominous people kept strolling in one after another, but an odd one out were to soon join them. A mali dressed in simple, yet sharp clothes fit for something akin to a scribe or a scholar found his way to the meeting point. A white shirt, and mundane black trousers to go with it. A defined jawline and an oriental hint to his facial features, the ashen-haired individual seemed quite normal, if it wasn't for his thousand year gaze - eyes so distant that he could probably see into his next life. This figure didn't seem too menacing, but the grace he carried himself with was to be noted, his steps so fluid it seemed almost like he was gliding through the ivory gate. As he walked, Zaviel's eyes wandered through the surroundings only for a moment, before his attention turned to the other invitees in turn - a subtle smile curling on his lips whispered of his confidence as he joined the table. The curiosity was shallowly written over his face, though an inexplicable expression of utter disbelief flashed over his face as his gaze slid over the parade the Lord of Ghouls had brought with him. He offered a subtle nod to Haskaal and Adorellan before finally greeting the hosting triumvirate with a courteous nod before taking a seat. "I have arrived." He announced without further hesitation - almost as if it was a given that he would come, flashing a neatly folded letter between his pointer and his middle finger.

Im not certain how people expect something mundane like bandits or pirates work as spontaeous events, if all you ever use is fast travel. Except of course when the staff is involved properly and sets the portal from its usual destination to an unforeseen encounter.. otherwise, it's kind of boring isn't it. Event team made events aren't the only events afterall, but the huge map and fast travel make it hard to prove, perhaps we do need pseudo-metagaming properties in our dynamic map - - - player positions! On the other hand, I'll whip up some antagonizing-action with some kool kids once I get out of military anyways. (Dec 18th)
