For sure lol, I just keep forgetting we have that game 1. Most favorite is the ability to creatively express yourself in a way that you see fit. It's really easy to write an interesting narrative all on your own before you even play the character. My least favorite thing is the inherent inability to create something yourself or how you see fit. The lore of LOTC has been used for 11 years and each year we just get more and more specific into the lore and that causes it to take the magic out of magic and also push out new ideas that come along, not to mention that writing lore is a headache and there is lore behind the lore that we don't see, plus pauses on lore, that can make it even harder to find a way to even create what you want to. 2. Honestly I think that being a mod has been a double edge sword in that I have seen the most disgusting and vile acts of a players and that preemtively forms my opinion of them for any interaction and overall jades me to the point of hating entire player bases (humans) but on the other end I see that there are a lot of players that genuinely just need help at times and that each scenario from the outside is totally different when you're actually involved. Perspective is everything, players suck, but also can be good and cool. 3. There is more to do each time I want to. If I want to play an insane fortune teller, then I can. If I want to play a paladin who is also socially inept and it leads him into weird situations, then I can. I think the thing that (piggybacking off answer 1) makes the server a great place to continue playing is the variation. I did say it was hard to build new niches with so overused and boring lore, but at the same time people like Zarsies and Pund always manage to build a new niche and create unique lore where it might have been hard to before. so tldr, there is always something to explore on LOTC and when there isn't, ill leave. 4. Even for how absolutely awful Sutica could be, I actually really enjoyed roleplaying in sutica. Disregard the shitty magic roleplayers and the bad roleplayers in general that it attracted and OOCly you had a really strong and fun community. I can say for certain some of the most initially fond memories were made in sutica with you and the other blood magic goons alongside people like Unwillingly and some of the now ex-ascended. Another thing I really liked about Sutica was the huge underground sewer system and how much of a no-mans land it was. I mean we hid bloodshards and stuff down there with some really weird ways of getting to them and even wanted to make the whole nightclub. 5. >12 year old zach really into D&D and class-based games / minecraft servers > find LOTC as a 'rpg server' and try to get into it after reading the (at the time) insanely good lore. >apply 3 times at SAO Kirito and get denied >finally realize you have to play an original character and makes one >2 weeks in get turned into a living throwing star 6. It would have to be the time in Rose- oh yeah not that. I'd say the funniest thing I've done in RP aside from that would be stealing the beacon since we were literally all in animal costumes as a test-run for the heist rules and then also the fact that there were like 3 mods there at the time who just watched us wreak havoc on the nation in animal onesies. Aside from that I used to laugh constantly when I had just gotten into the Ascended, I mean I even had my own Adunian Warcry as I entered the VC.

I thought this was really funny and wasn't even gonna warn you for it if I remember until someone in Llyria got mad about it and reported it, I was just the one to shoot the gun since it did technically break a rule (although funny)

i look like harry potter irl Dael'ran was an elf born from a lich dad in a forest who basically brainwashed him to make him believe he was an Adunian. He didn't fit in very well so made himself conform to actual adunian culture and eventually got into alchemy, then became an ascended and got in voidal magic. Went through that, fought an undead dragon and became Silver Sage, lead a large internal library within the Ascended and fought undead. After the ascended oocly went through a bunch of rewrites, he had himself disconnected and went and became an izkuthii to pursue stealing shit and doing bad stuff, wherein he got mixed up with blood mages and became one himself, stealing bloodshards and other artifacts. After the izkuthii and blood magic were shelved he became a plain voidal mage and still is a klepto.

Because you are relaxed and cool, no weirdly offputting opinions. 1) My favorite moment of RP I've ever had is torn between stealing the stone of Metztli or stealing the only functioning beacon in sutica, both were last map. Those two OR when Mordring overtook Bastion and we all lost. 2) Pretty obviously Dael The First. I feel like I really became ingrained in LOTC because people gave me a chance on him and I went a long way with it. I had done everything I had ever wanted on him and now he remains sort of in a perma-shelved area of my life, only occasionally being played when I want to do something random 3) @Xx_BloodStalk_xX100% Dael II, he genuinely had a super crazy life that reminded me a lot of another favorite Nazorean which was D1's first brother 4) God there are so many to choose from but I'd say my favorite OOC moment, at least in general, is when I end up being in a new friend group surrounded by different people. I find that as time progresses I have met a load of cool people of whom all have their own little friend groups that they invited me into and that I really have enjoyed being in. outside of a general OOC standpoint it would have to have been late night in Ascended chat when I first drew some of the funniest, but kept secret, comics of my life with some Ascended friends. 5) Honestly I always thought you seemed pretty cool, like one of the older players on the server who had a lot of mineman 'clout' and would be really neat to RP with, but just due to my weird new-player shyness I never really approached you IRP or anything when I had been playing my mage characters a bit and you still played Nemir. (6) After I got over that, I think we just never have interacted due to being in different RP groups which is a bit weird since we are on the same side of the coin in terms of rp. Kenny because he was the first ok. I listen to a lot of edgy music so here you go I actually don't really enjoy LOTC nearly as much without being a mod because I like having the ability to fill the space in between RP. I also do hate walking and eating food and like to build redstone in the build world too, so being staff lets me do that : D Axios hands down. Favorite map, great time for the stuff I was involved in (Bad Gaz eventline and mediocre end), but the builds and the roleplay I had during that time was amazing.

Hi I am ZachoSnacko. I've been around now 7 years today and I decided to make a nice little AMA because I can. You can ask me whatever you want, rather it be about my staff positions, characters, etc. Its a bit weird to actually do one of these considering I remember what I was like when I joined LOTC, and like most, I was a cringe 12 year old who didn't know how to type works correctly. Now adays I am a fresh 19 year old living the life. Anyway, to the AMA!

This players questions have been answered and the situation resolved. Should you wish to have this reopened, please PM me your reasons why it should be so.

[!] A missive would be sent from a distant land, to the so called council of Veritas, in private. It's scroll was ornate and decorated in the colors of the orcs, yellow, red, and black. "Dear Members of Veritas, I, Jiangu'lak, Dominus of The Iron'Uzg formally extend a plot of land to your people should this issue not be resolved. You would be free to do as you please and will be left alone for the most part. If this issue is not resolved by your current host please seek me out and we may negotiate to how you see fit. " Signed in blood -Jiangu'Lak, Second to the Rex

A long blinded and old 'ame stood in the midst of Yong Ping, having dozed off for his habitual afternoon nap in the square. Suddenly what appeared to be static clouded his dream, just for the described vision to appear before his absent eyes. It was only a short moment, but then he shot awake in the chair, knocking it over and somehow coming to a stand "What has the beyond destined? A vision to all?" The man wiped off sweat that already dripped down his face in the wake of a prophecy.

Favorite lore piece Favorite character past or present Favorite word

Yuh

Yeah I get your frustration. Personally having been in your spot many years ago and just going through the motions of getting magic I totally understand where you are. Getting magic is weirdly hard, and thats only for the surface level stuff that is openly taught, totally unlike dark magics. Personally I knew the struggle of getting where you want your character to be in a story and have just been giving trials to whoever even offers to ask. Seer, for example, has a great piece of the lore written in it that lets me see other to-be seers and what not. My Chi monastery let anyone in as long as they could complete the trials in character. But I alone don't solve the issue, so all I can say is write a good reason to pursue magic, and then seek it out in character by asking around.

Tbh I favor just getting rid of wanted posters on the forums and make people actually set out a bounty in character, I don't see anything useful with the namemc wanted posters

like, subscribe, hit the bell, buy patreon, purchase merch, and sent my firstborn

i upvote then leave no question, chaotic evil.

Farwell man, you got my girlfriend addicted to super animal royal so you'll always be part of my life now I guess... send help she won't stop. Also glad to see hojo with the red tag, he is insanely hard working.

Dael'ran, grand past wizard of the Ascended and lord of nothing, stood on the distant coast. "This would be a fine letter for Crumena of Kamees... We must send word at once..." The man then once more shuffled off, in search of a legendary maiden for his long lost and desperate friend...

damn.,

The formatting alone is enough for it to get passed lol. good write up, an interesting take on the ''''''end game'''''' of voidal magic. very well done pal.

"The material is truly never meant to last- I've known that much" Amidst the recent voidal works in Ando'alur, Dael'ran now travelled from city to city boredly, as if lacking true purpose in the world. He had witnessed the worldly destruction and it confused him- but in the midst of it all the news reached his ear, telling of death. "I've seen the soulstream and its a place I think you might like- well hopefully anyway." The rather somber look on Dael's face continued to stand and overtake his features. For a time his feet dragged, his lips curled into a scowl, and his head was aimed to the ground. "Rest easy, Cyrene."

Jiangu'lak is happy he signed, now chatting in the throne room afterwards! "Peaze to our peepul!"

Jiangu'lak stood in his lab deep in the caves of Krugmar as he read the notice. "Peaze will kome to us, aynd Jiangu will guide it."

Rest in peace, always a great shame to lose someone in the community.
