Briefly explain the lore behind this construct or creature:
They are creatures animated to life by the use of blood, unknown language, and soul essence. The three elements are used to both awake and heal sorvians. For example, if one of their limbs goes missing it is an incantation that is required to reattach the sorvian's arm. They have two primary flaws, being their chest cavity and mask. The two places are most certainly the weakest points of the sorvian-body. Essentially, any creature with soul essence can create these clay and wood husks. Sorvians lacking the final touches of humanhood make them spectators to the events of man as ideology seekers.
If this construct or creature has some form of aesthetic choice, can you describe how they look?
The only restrictions on sorvians is a porcelain mask, clay smooth like flesh, and human height. They like Descendants fashion themselves in garbs, and decorate their mask from time to time. A sorvian's mask can mold to their ideology, as alike a druidic sorvian growing antlers. Players can play Newts that are smaller like halfing size, but it takes up a slot.

I think dark creatures play more "normal" to keep from being meta-gamed. They Are Monsters assumes the player-base is going to treat you fairly, which 90% of the time is never true during a random conflict. Of course not all the time, but even subtle details people will take as a whole clue to solve the puzzle they already know OOCly to bring IC. I do not think your point is what I am saying, but my point is role-playing different from a group (whether human, elf, orc, dwarf, ect) only brings trouble usually for the dark magic player. It is up to the ET to bring players conflict-driven story-lines. I would never play a dark magic creature to entertain anyone other than myself ULTIMATELY. And there is usually little time from moderation to effectively help dark magic players have some resources against the common tropes of power-gaming and meta-gaming in all ways that bring advantage the average player.
the common player says, "zug zug zug"

How does a random player tell me about the Admin Team anomalously banning someone before the Admin Team? Yeah, how can you claim this is justified, and calculated when a player reported it before you addressed it? So, basically, if a player does not inform me of something it does not need to be addressed. You had such plenty of time you could not wait to them ban them without giving a proper follow-up? Classic staff members, taking from communities without actually fixing the root problems within.
Either I am a conspirator doubting you guys or you just are incompetent by allowing a player to report secret bans before you did. Please, whatever the truth is, Admin Team try to think before you act? I am not trying to big brother you but like just think for a moment.

From the underworld, a harbinger of plate, and blood red cloaks reminisced on the act. Beneath that darkness bemired helm, a sadistic fervor befell that wretched thing. However, what was once a righteous soul soon wallowed at the new-found entropies beguiling his mind.

Briefly explain the lore behind this construct or creature:
The undeathly knight of yore is a product of necrotic and runic ritual of necromancers. Upon having a body, runes and reagents give way for the Heith-Hedran scar to send the soul into a mortal limbo. Now, on resurrection, an item of personal binding connects the darkstalker in a profound way as they lose their once humanly soul. A darkstalker's mind is twisted, as a creature requiring constant energy by feeding from everything around is endowed in their essences. The mind and body both hunger, thus they are never given respite and peace. They are always under burden, for nothing brings them comfort or pain. However, sunlight, fire, and holy magic are all capable of making a darkstalker feel pain. Life-force is used to empower the skeleton and stave off complete rot for mummified bonewalkers. They require constant upkeep by taking in life-force.
Darkening is a touch-based ability that allows them to feed in order to maintain themselves. It requires two emotes to summon, then another two for full effect. It can be used non-combat purposes to give aesthetics on flowers or trees by appearing withered or sapped. After a month of being locked, then a darkstalker by the aid of sacrifices and necromancers can achieve greater boons from that point onwards.
If this construct or creature has some form of aesthetic choice, can you describe how they look?
They are creatures of death and decay. It is for this fundamental reason they must shelter themselves in robes, leathers, and armor. By the help of necromancers some darkstalkers are able to seem humanly albeit with sickly qualities. However, they must be Regressed, and a darkstalker will otherwise be rotting or completely. They will be kept in a perpetual state of death in which they must nourish themselves with life-force to strengthen their bones, among any remaining flesh.

Hello, I am looking for a character that has the ability to create Construct races. I am mainly concerned with the Sorvian race. If anyone has this possibility, please contact me on discord in order to discuss everything.

During the Franco-Prussian war, from basically the top of France to the bottom took a bird 10 hours just to get from the top to the bottom of the country. So, if we take 10 hours one way, then 10 hours back in just the size of France (which LoTC is suppose to be larger than it looks as a block stands for 3 feet), therefore I can positively say this is a joke and will never be RPed realistically. It will just be used to rely sensitive information in 3-5 minutes time which would further remove dynamic, robust agency in RP. It will only take away instead of enhancing flavored RP.

i think the map is suppose to be realistically pretty big, so if we just use France as an example, we can see how the realism will never transfer over

It takes around 2-5 minutes to receive a bird, and you need to go to an aviary to look at it - I believe. It's no instant email sender
so you are saying hypothetically I watch a Youtube video for 3 minutes while I wait for a bird that will have information that will be used against dynamic RP? wow you are so brilliant
because people historically waited 3 minutes to receive a message from another kingdom with important, valuable news that could change destiny, yeah I am totally for this now that you have enlightened me
staff members, stop forcing your garbage down people's throats and actually get some insight before you make an announcement about something that does not make a better story for the server
like maybe you people could get an original idea and try that?

Not entirely sure what you are getting at here, avaries and birds have been a thing since lotc began. We had an aviary and bird plugin just like this one several maps ago, it wasn't kept up to date and we eventually stopped using it then the msg birds became a thing because there was no alternative, now the plugin has been readded. It not fantasy or make believe, its an actual real thing that happened throughout irl history and its much better then the msg birds
Because you will never get 100% historical accuracy on LoTC, so trying to legitimatize it through historic use does not stop the fact it will never be RPed correctly. It will be RPed as an instantaneous message holder. You see, back in the day the bird did not arrive instantly like an email. And the chances of it even reaching were not guaranteed. I would even bet quite a few birds went messing in attempts to pass along messages through birds in medieval times. In any case, it will bring about more abuse by being used like an instant email sender than to generate quality story-lines and RP.
It will just be used by cringe-lords who would rather "justify" a message through an aviary after they tell their friend to go to one on Discord
If previous bird RP was always terrible, I do not see how adding a plug-in for it will make the system anymore less abused by people.

The player who recieves the letter has to go to an aviary to collect it, this makes perfect rp sense
yeah if this was a Game of Thrones TV show but it isnt and there will be more abuse/using it for the wrong intentions than correctly RPing distance in correlation with time, among other factors that could even send the bird off-course
legitimatizing birds is retarded
