  1. "They come for your soul." an elder scholar ruminates with bated breath
  2. [!] Letters were pinned to noticeboards throughout the towns and villages of the Holy Orenian Empire [!] Letter to the Faithful ((A colored sketch of the lands near the Eastfleet harbour is attached to the parchment)) A threat is growing in the east. As some of you may know, foulness spreads through the lands of Almaris. A filth which if left to its own, shall consume all that we’ve worked so hard to build and hold dear. Yes, that is no invalid claim or false assumption, it is the truth. So listen here as to how we may stop this and save ourselves. After the fall of Ando Alur some sort of “crack” in reality opened up where it layed, leaking this contamination that we see today polluting GOD’s great land. The hubris of the witches and sorcerers that dwelt there was all encompassing. Just like it is written in the holy scrolls, Iblees was corrupted by the void, and so were these people of Ando Alur. Their greed was too limitless to be able to control their unnatural powers. This rift spread its disease, turning the flora and fauna around it twisted and evil. Much like a rash is to the body, so is this uncleanliness a sore upon the land. And cleanse it we shall! For it is our GOD given duty to do so, as did our forefathers before us when combating the thanic threats of Johannesburg and Mordskov. So shall we by our swords and spears cleanse the land of this current corruption. As simple man, I see only a few options before us. Through cooperation between Church and secular authorities, a series of expeditions should be organized to explore the region and research how to defeat it. Following that, we would compile a plan from our findings and execute it. All working accordingly, with enough men we should be able to get to the heart of the issue and solve it once and for all.s If this threat is to be ignored for much longer this land will be fully enveloped by the stink of death. So we should unite, not under Emperors or Kings, but under the initiative of the people and the resources of the Church. Our army is occupied fighting the war so I call upon thee, faithful of Almaris. I call upon the Holy Church of the Cannon, Supreme Order of Exalted Owyn and the Lectorate. I call upon all the faithful of these lands so that we may form a common body to combat the evil that grows in the east. We must unite to do GOD’s will, for apart we simply cannot prevail. That is why, brothers and sisters in GOD, I beseech you as a humble servant of the Holy Orenian Empire to come together against this threat. So we may keep our lands to ourselves. -Laurens Herbertus van Hahn Deus Vult.
  3. stop speaking like you have a mental disability "b..b..but the t..tusks" no more meme tradition like the grubgoth i want to see serious crp fights between orcs for all reasons ranging from succession to honor stop wearing lioncloths, put on some pants
  4. [!] On the various trading boards of Almaris was pinned a tattered notice that is written on a slighlty damp slip of paper, reading as follows: Reward of 600 minas upon the delivery of an intact lesser dragon carcass: Looking for a party of mercenaries, monster hunters, or soldiers to kill a lesser dragon of any kind, be it a wyvern, drake or basilisk. On delivery of an enitre lesser dragon carcass the party will be paid a total of 600 minas to share among themselves as they see fit. The only known location of a lesser dragon's nest is in the desert of Sutica, on top of a volcano. On procurement of (see above) send a message by courier or raven to Ronald aep Dricaen ((Yakith_Lizard)) who can be found in Luciensburg.
  5. a more free form version of necromancy would be refreshing to see, something along the lines of how PBM handles
  6. literal copy of somebody else’s fiction transported to lotc, weak effort, smol brain lore, write something original
  7. DO IT ******* DO IT! ACCEPT THE ******* MAGIC DOOOOOOO IIIIT!
  8. “Basically, when your character and another player's character come into conflict, you should check in with that person OOC later to see if that person is okay. The same should be the case with conflict in LOTC.” What are we ******* Massivecraft?
  9. I used to bandit a LOT, and always did it in rp. Both on my orc characters and human ones, thievery was the primary goal and never ended up killing almost anyone. I think the purpose of playing a villain, any kind for that matter, is to fill a niche in a story and provide a common goal to unite people. In doing so you create more rp, and help to turn mundane rp into something more memorable. I’m wholly opposed to any form of PVP besides nation vs nation battles and think that banditry should be done in rp. #RPdefault2019
  10. Followers of the dwarven faith don't really frown on magic users, most of the info here is wrong.
  11. BLORGONS!!! [Credit to Monopteryx] Habitat: The Blorgon usually inhabits the tall grasses of plains and undergrowth of large temperate forests where it builds its nests in tightly packed, territorial colonies that range from ten to fifteen adults. Some solitary males can be found in other biomes searching for colonies to mate with right before or in the mating season. This species has been known to migrate when it has depleted all sources of food in the area or rarely if driven out by disease or predators. Size: The average size and weight of a Blorgon is 85 cm tall and 42 kg bulky, their lifespan varies between eight and eleven years depending on where it lives, the groups that live in the forest regions are taller and live longer than the ones in grassy plains. Diet: With an almost insatiable hunger, the carnivorous Blorgons eat anything they can find in the radius around their nests and marked territory, in two years or so of inhabitancy a colony may find the fauna in their territory dwindle as most of the local species would be wiped by the hungry, vicious birds. At times they may consider all the forest as their territory if not for other colonies or predators blocking hunting ground. The mostly solitary males are more used to scavenging for insects and feeding on smaller animals like lizards and rodents but a normal healthy colony can even bring down deer and wolves, they use hunting patterns and ambush their prey with superior knowledge gained in years of experience and being very crafty and smart at how they handle their hunt, the instinct for highly social hunting is inherited but the skill is developed. Temperament: They are often times aggressive creatures when looking for food but rather docile when in their nesting spots, the males are highly territorial with some being solitary and vicious, their own territory usually overlapping with colonies where they mate. This species is highly communal and social meaning that it can’t be tamed. Brief summary of the creature: The long legged, muscular Blorgons, tend to wobble when they move presumably since they only possess one eye, they are covered in small gray, white or brown feathers presenting a short head and an impressive rounded tail. Their large wide beaks always grow, only being kept in shape by scraping it against trees which also marks their territory and normal use such as eating or grooming. They often hunt in packs unless you encounter a solitary male that usually scavenges for food. Characteristics: Blorgon colonies have a close knit matriarchal society where one of the experienced females of the group, usually if its been able to mate a few times with a male is regarded as the protector and guider of the group much like in elephant communities. The mating season starts at the end of winter and ends in the middle of autumn, they produce up to four eggs per coupling and they tend to mate between five and seven times per mating season. After mating season at the start of winter the now fully grown juveniles depart from their home colonies and form others after a few brawls that often result in casualties before a lead matriarch is chosen to guide the next colony. The colony may be bigger than average at the start but it always settles down to the usual number from different causes such as conflict and casualties during hunts. They are unfriendly to most especially with other species that may hunt in the area and may be considered rivals. If faced with a threat that is too big as a bear and such, most of the time they flee but rarely stand their ground especially if in greater numbers. In hunting which is a big social event for the community and the whole species they are led by the matriarch. The food being eaten in the field then carried to the nests and regurgitated for the young. Blorgons start hunting from a few months as their developing time is rather short. Blorgons have also been known for their vicious cannibalism where they eat any weakling juveniles or aged individuals at the first sign of weakness. Resulting in cannibalism being the second most important cause of death for these flightless birds. Origin: This species of birds probably had taller, stronger ancestors that were also carnivorous but as the flora shortened around them they did too, evolving into the current species that inhabits primeval forests and grassy plains along the temperate parts of Atlas. Weaknesses: Cannibalism and starvation if a colony stays in the same place for more than one generation. LM Approval Required: No. If playable what are the redlines?: Not playable by players.
  12. Great job everyone that made this, LOTC was lacking in astronomy so again, well done.
