[!] Before you, a picture was drawn upon on a scroll, a fine and lenient framing would complement the ancient scenery, which invited the beholder to what the artist depicts Arcadia as. Upon the back of the drawing a letter was attached... ልዪርልዕጎል 𝒾𝓈 𝒷𝑒𝓁𝒾𝑒𝓋𝑒𝒹 𝓉𝑜 𝒷𝑒 𝒶𝓃 𝒶𝓃𝒸𝒾𝑒𝓃𝓉 𝓅𝓇𝑒𝒸𝓊𝓇𝓈𝑜𝓇 𝒸𝒾𝓋𝒾𝓁𝓁𝒾𝓈𝒶𝓉𝒾𝑜𝓃 𝓉𝒽𝒶𝓉 𝓈𝑒𝓉𝓉𝓁𝑒𝒹 𝓊𝓅𝑜𝓃 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝑜𝓅𝑒𝓃 𝓈𝑒𝒶 𝑜𝒻 𝒜𝓇𝓀𝒶𝓈, 𝒶𝓃𝒹 𝓅𝑒𝓇𝒽𝒶𝓅𝓈 𝒶𝓁𝓇𝑒𝒶𝒹𝓎 𝓈𝒶𝒾𝓁𝑒𝒹 𝑜𝓇 𝓁𝒾𝓋𝑒𝒹 𝓊𝓅𝑜𝓃 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝑜𝒸𝑒𝒶𝓃 𝒾𝓃 𝓅𝓇𝑒𝓋𝒾𝑜𝓊𝓈 𝓇𝑒𝒶𝓁𝓂𝓈, 𝓁𝑜𝓃𝑔 𝒷𝑒𝒻𝑜𝓇𝑒 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝒹𝑒𝓈𝒸𝑒𝓃𝒹𝒶𝓃𝓉𝓈 𝒻𝑜𝓁𝓁𝑜𝓌𝑒𝒹 𝓊𝓅𝑜𝓃 𝓉𝒽𝑒𝒾𝓇 𝓅𝒶𝓉𝒽.

𝓦𝓻𝓲𝓽𝓽𝓮𝓷 1703 ԹՐƙԾՏ [OOC-Info] This is the final part of the naval eventline that I’ve run on Arkas, which means giving back to the you guys. Every player that participated, has a crew or is interested in other naval related activities, is invited to join the ocean-hub (Ancient Sea Ruin). One can think of it as a sort of event-charter, where there will be objectives, specialized bounties, and lore to discover and be written, all while having the freedom to do so on your own. As mentioned, the only requirement is involvement in the naval storyline, which will net you a spot to ‘freely’ decorate and live with your persona in the event-charter, while also staying at a close pulse with the storyline itself. I invite you to do DIY Events or make this your new favourite fishing spot... For further information message me on the Forums, Discord or your leave your Nickname & Persona’s Name in the thread (perhaps with a nice roleplay text to accompany it)

Be water my friend!

Updated Bounty! The troll and the forest serpent were both taken care of, now with the location of the nymph creature missing, the only bounty that remains is the mysterious humanoid creature known to leave gruesome piles of descendant corpses behind where it hunts to mark its territory.

Don’t worry! No MAs or Asking needed for rewriting Conjuration in all honesty, noone asked me either! Left the discord for the passive aggresive stance of certain writers there, so seeing someone else picking it, giving it some needed tweaks to the magics to fit it the post-loremag meta, gives me a bit of hope for the based magic as I like it, while this feels much like what you’d expect from someone self teaching the magic with the current ressources that float around on the forums and the wiki, it is very nice to have … as you mentioned, the perspective of an outsider... Now! I can’t say that conjuration is the most acclaimed voidal evocation at all, but it is certainly the one that allows for a versatile freeform aspect in its active roleplay. That being, you have definitely nailed the current lore down to its root and merged the magic with lots of variation to the mechanics. It surprised me to see such a in-depth guide regarding a conjuration submission but I have to admit that the you nailed the required format and the depth of the different mechanics behind it required, e.g. with the different constructs & summon types. You presented conjuration less of an exclusive lore for certain vague spells one can invoke to bust a goons nut, but you have certainly brought it forward as a very vast and verstatile concept that a good roleplayer can approach in many different ways and can put their mind to as much as they like. I found this submission and its additions to the lore very impressing and it surely stays true to how conjuration is, naturally balanced and very imaginative.

Bring fast travel back and institute it to RP! That would’ve helped the Arcas map too and is absolutely needed for a non-decentralizing nation layout. The thing I was most hoping for this map was the wildlands. In the end you had to venture ridiciously far out into the wildlands until you’d finally encounter freebuild area, because the region that was supposed to be clear to build right at the beginnning, just was regioned and flagged (probably claimed by some gm). Then again I hoped no freebuild would keep the ‘unpleasant kind of builds’ out of the nations but still I see little animal pods or some other farming contraption littering the places, and not to mention the ridicilous amount of signs in every nation you go. If Arcas was in any way not complete the sheer amount of useless crap brought there afterwards makes up for it and I’m just waiting to put evil event creatures in all these ghost charters. I wish next map we can have just nice things, made by many nice builders and with solid nice lore behind the builds. No more charters, no more freebuild, full on immersion. It doesn’t even have to be very grand or outstandingly designed, just a little more variation and more dedication to the lore behind it and a challenge behind exploration (maybe have complete areas shut off because descendants have yet to find a way for them to travel there safely)

Brea... I mean Bloodtaking!

I remember my time at the hochschule 😪, take care and get those A++’s! ^^

[!] Reports of the first Troll found inside the walls of Fenn were brought to your attention! “It was horrible, I couldn’t sleep all night with all this shouting and screaming!” [!] An old disgruntled local exclaimed “Witnesses said that there was an explosion, or atleast a huge bang in the crypt, was there magic involved?” [!] More and more rumors began to spread as curious voices raised concern... “What... What if … I find a Troll in my basement?!” [!] A faint hysteria had to be calmed after the first incident, but for now everything seems safe … ? “... Let’s check out what is supposedly off limits!” [!] Two unsuspecting descendants went out to... The Underground and have not returned since...

Naval Storyline Become a confidant of the sea and sail across the Arcadian Ocean with your ship and a faithful crew, life overseas is not easy and requires preparation, navigation and equipment ... not to forget the food on deck is required in large supply, and that's where the delicacies such as sea-fruit are found. Sailors whisper of a taste that comes from the depths of the seas … Explore the depths of the Sea Ruin and discover a world of water and the home of an ancient civilization ... The ocean itself has preserved this place and protected it from the torrents of time, much of the ruin could have survived ... It does not only awaken the treasure hunter instincts but also those of every fisherman, the first who dared to dive beneath the surface... Go under and face the forces of nature ... Descendants have always been made to live on land, but curiosity is like a blade piercing the sea, reaching deeper and diving recklessly. Conquering the deep is a trophy to each and every category, be it by arcane arts, research or even through sheer mind and will! A genius mind will reward their fellowship with the treasure of the deep, and a title to hone their tinkering skill Reveal what lies beneath the depths and ... In a place without light, life is a lantern ...

Discover new life and beings who were born in the deep, pelagic flora and amphibious ocean dwellers alike. The aquatic creatures seem to exist in a miraculous cycle and are in harmony with nature and the Descendants. In the tropical area near the Wildlands many creatures live in different ways and in different planes. Even for those who are not interested in science, the ruin is a beacon of life to ocean dwellers. ...Ultimately, every descendant can just discover for themselves what is behind the horizon for them ... Already have wet feet? Spoiler! Final Boss of the Storyline! If you’re interested feel free to leave a nice RP post! Thanks!

Laying in the warm sand as the sun would slowly sink into the horizon, the heavens above the ocean began to shimmer in a sovereign light and as night came to day, the Hermit would ask himself a very important question... “Sand, ...” he let’s it run trough his fingers, turning to the land behind him and back to the sea “... Sea … Land... Sand?” “WHO CAME UP WITH THIS?!” The old man was puzzled as he lets his gaze drift back to the waters. Pearly-white beaches ran through many nations, settlements and villages, and the Hermit remembered supporting hands of the numerous crews who fought on this sandy path with him. In the end ... there was nothing left of the threat, but someone had to spread the good news somehow! So the Hermit got to work and created a variety of letters that he sent by bottle... soon the heroes of the sea’s should learn that the thanks of the sea dwellers and maybe also the landlubbers is theirs. “Greetings! Captains, Crews and Sailors... I’m happy to see you’ve found this message Today is a special day, no … it is not a celebration of an independent nation, nor is it triumph in war. It is a day like every other, in fact you might read this way later than everyone else... but to say the least, without the help of your well trained members and the craftmanship of renowned ship builders, the sea could’ve never been as peaceful as it is now. It is a blessing that the oceans are free from the Hydra. Some may know this creature as the Sea-Serpent, or the Kraken, but after the remains were found it was revealed... A group of cultists had created an being of the undead... or perhaps far worse, a being of filth and death. The Fleugal, an octopuss like creature that is prone to mutation, and eats everything from fresh carrion to the obscene amount of filth that is produced by the descendants. In some way, natural Fleugals are very beneficial to an ecosystem as long as it doesn’t mutate too much, but now imagine it being fed corpses, trash and living, unlucky souls... and soon its appetite grew and with its body becoming the rot itself the seas were soon contaminated with the cultists’ creature flesh cursing salvia. Everyone who went close to the contaminated water, or was coated with the salvia, is fated to have all of themselves, be it clothes, hair, eyes or anything they held, turn into bone. But enough of this creature, and the horrors it brought upon the vast seas, for now it is defeated. Let the names of your crew ring true, as you are the Slayers of the Hydra! Luckily, after this the contaminated water was quickly cleansed by mother nature itself, many stretches of the ocean that were previously littered with bonified organisms begins to sprawl with life again, and amidst this wonder of natural recovery and ancient ruin revealed itself... or perhaps it has always been there. I don’t know it for myself, as my mind is fleeting but, now you can explore this ancient ruin without being trapped in a vortex... But don’t you dive too deep... as even the descendants should fear the drowned darkness beneath... ”

I have to definetely agree that choosing your profession wisely leads to your desired RP. But to the Topic first, yes… it happens to all and the best of pacifist roleplayers that you come across the PvP nieche that seems somewhat violent and greedy at first glance. I’m talking about the typical banditry on the roads or the power-trip pvp villain in your local RP hub of course, they are the exception to the roleplay in general. It gives a sense of danger when you venture out to the roads, perhaps have a caravan or a noble citizen that you require to escort safely to a far away nation, an ambush could happen and even your dearest RP might not save you... Those are generally concepts that work hand in hand with PvP, because when it comes down to serious business ya’ll won’t be counting emotes and doing in depth CRP but PvP will do the job just fine. Back to the professions, if you shy away from clicking for the wins you should consider exploiting another minecraft mechanic, such as becoming a farmer, an architect, miner or perhaps a merchant, there are plenty of things that are almost free of PvP, but still... It shouldn’t be demonized and I encourage everyone to pick up some gear and put some villainous narrative on to the roads.
