  1. Ibisa beamed. "I love doctors, because I am one!"
  2. I want to see more involvement in events that isn't violent, but doesn't have to be good. Trickster gods & the loss of memories, etc, not just death or dismemberment. Things that hurt but don't slay.
  3. An Elven scoundrel did not take well to the news, diving deep into a bottle of whiskey to soothe his intense regrets.
  4. Other lore already does this; bardmancy, illusion, a few more too. Just my 2 cents.
  5. From Rahm to The Grouch, Rahm started as an honorless thief robbing the homes of fellow Elves blind & storing his goods in far off nations. He eventually grew himself a beard, joined the Carrington money-making machine, and became a different type of thief, mainly ripping people off through auctions. He became one of the first revival alchemists, and is still alive though elusive to this very day. Remmandra Belou, truly one of my favorite characters. She started as a pacifist perfume saleswoman, also turned alchemist under the NEXUS alchemical system (not handled in roleplay really). She had her eye fixed eventually, and joined a league of Paladins where she tried to lead charges to avoid violence at any cost other than life.

  7. I love buying items off AH to save myself time so I can RP on the RP server.

  8. You've come across this sleepy-eyed Doomforged & wonder more. She carries several items in a silken backpack, & is never without a pickaxe and spade. She averts her gaze to hide an unfamiliar sense in this bright world, and watches her back. Her gleaming eyes squint at the shimmering sun & prefer darkness or shade. She rarely opens her eyes in the light of day. Common Traits ● Drowsy ● Sloshed ● Mercantile ● Interrogative ● Usurious Hanging around her neck is a sigil of an old Dwarven clan, which she clings to in times of fear or uncertainty. Tucked on her belt was a whistle for a short-haired donkey. Often, she carries a bag stuffed full with common materials from around the world. Auriel's hands are gloved in black leather, decorated with jewels & rings, and are never far from flask or cigar. Auriel was fascinated with beautiful places, from churches to underground waterfalls. She had a great interest in exploring & gathering, often times wandering in the Surfacelands for the sake of finding new treasures or learning new philosophies. In nature, she sought seclusion in the underworld's many beautiful halls. She treasured her privacy in the subterranean Deeproads.
  9. "Now she'll have time to visit," a lunatic adds.
  10. i've been on this mindset for years, love to incorporate OOC shock, confusion & misery into events. it's like a horror movie that's not actually scary otherwise, something that you're supposed to say: "aaaaaaaaaah" to, but is too cheesy for the player. this is also why the "edgy = bad" mindset can bite people in the ass, defenders typically respond flat-faced to threats of violence, stone-walling the rp. : ( @UnwillinglyI've run several events where players start spamming L-OOC: "I'm terrified, this is a scary event", but IC'ly they don't bring any of that energy. It's one of the more disappointing parts of running events.

      There's also no limit to how many attacks a weapon can use before the oil is consumed...

  12. Narratively, your character doesn't need to be 'mentally ill' to be crazy. It's okay if you just pick some crazy or non-normative character traits and deliver on them. Don't drive yourself up a tree trying to imitate RP out of the DSM-5, but also keep in mind story-telling manners for other players. I play a lot of crazy characters (and I'm pretty nutso IRL) so this is just my two cents. I think more players should play emotionally expressive characters, getting afraid, breaking down into panic attacks, having histrionic episodes rather than defaulting to some 'clown killer' archetype. Then again, I haven't seen any clownish killers in a while. The more expressive your character can be with their emotions, the better story you can tell about their moods. Even a dull, apathetic character can be expressively apathetic. It's good to capture this emotional level before you try to move on to playing a literal scizo.
  13. Minecraft Username: DiscoLiquid Discord Username: DiscoLiquid#9251 [!] The rest of the application is written in impressive script. Character Name: Ibi Character Age: 35 Citizenship: Yes, I am a citizen. Reason for application: I would like to protect Yong Ping through my diligence and medical work, & I want a tax break.
  14. Neph Irongut manages the sheep & barrels at Dunheim, and upon hearing the good political news, breaks out into a predictable bout of drinking & song-singing.
  15. "It can't be real!" Ibi shrieks, posting up in her room to soothe in familiar terms.
  16. Maybe we simply need more events with collectable nodes, and not nodes that are always accessible. I can see about talking to other ST who might want to run events that feature valuable materials, instead of forcing this weird level of IC/OOC exploration that not everyone likes. I don';t know if there's an issue with the current system (there probably is) but I just think ST could offer up some boomsteel or thanhium in rewards instead of, er... i dunno bones?
  17. Ibi claps, having now finally found someone who will actually pay her for work.
