Rickard would scoff, disappointed to see his name exploited by hypocrites. “By this time the House of Horen-Marna bent the knee to Renatus. They endorsed that attack.”

As I have said in the past, I believe the major problem at the moment is the lack of communication from the Story Team. A feedback thread like this one has long been overdue for quite some time. Overall, I agree largely with what @Vindicant has said. I believe more work needs to be put into working with the playerbase (especially loreholders) and considering player opinion, rather than dictating policy based on personal whim. To me magic is fairly functioning in a balanced form, and the few kinks that do exist can be ironed out with a more constructive lore system.

Rickard Vientos’ undivided attention now nestled with his family. Having recently sired another son, his enthusiasm was perhaps at its height, a feeling he could cherish with his wife. In his distant past, the scion of Kovac had no such luxury, weighed down by the intrigues of statesmanship and nobility. However, that was the past. Here and now, he would enjoy the pleasures of the present. Sat next to Victoria, he embraced his family, for, at this time, there was nothing else in the world that concerned him.

Rickard Vientos simply shrugged, reading the missive in a distant land. “He wasn't a real Kovachev anyway; the title of Duke of Carnatia has been self-proclaimed for the last few decades.”

(I find it interesting you’ve effectively provided the skins of those involved, pulling together what is an OOC screenshot and masquerading it as an ‘RP sketch’. I don’t see how your usage of this material is any different from essentially metagaming.)

Upon seeing this proclamation, Rickard would scoff, adorning his armour to overthrow the crippled mongrel.

An ancient Gold Corps officer rolls in his grave.

Rickard Vientos would grin whilst signing his name, awaiting enthusiastically to entertain himself!

Rickard the Ascended proceeds to utter the following:

To amend this, please refer to the wiki and the forums for recent lore (i.e. a city or historical event). - Your race doesn’t match your biography. Either you can play as a dwarf of a farfolk. - Your interesting facts aren’t very descriptive and require at least one suitable weakness of your character.
