I think it’d be nice to see the aspects of an Aengul or Daemon to be more specific and set on some kind of standard on what they represent and the powers they give. Some are pretty out there for example, a Daemon of Time is acceptable for a group but it would cause trouble for a shaman if they meddled with a Elemental of Time.

As for the axing of Aerial and Iblees I find to be a bit discouraging. I have always seen them as a balance of the Aengu-daemons with Aerial as Arch-Aengul and Iblees as Arch-Daemon and everything good/evil falls between the two. I’m not exactly sure how one could kill/remove a top tier Deity, but i’m also not sure what would be worth replacing with and still make sense. I understand why people might jump on a end-of-an-era bandwagon, but these are immortal deities made by the Creator that are meant to last centuries over. New generations and characters give rise, but learn the ancient teachings of their ancestors.

“Wub am a Kor” ponders Falum

Simply amazing

Kruger holds his priceless Lorraine Cross high into the air as the holy presence of GOD fills his spirit to the brim with energy “GOD wills it!”

It does not promote role-play to take a form of role-play someone else enjoys. Banditry may not be the best RP and it causes inconvenience and grief to a lot of people and can in all honesty be extremely annoying. They are a petty form of RP where they must survive off things they rob from people, but it’s still a type of RP that groups of players enjoy. I couldn’t exactly say it’s the most quality RP you might get on the server but if you stay in one place too long your bound to be caught. You really shouldn’t expect the same thing from raiders too when clearly they are performing an action and irl don’t seek to have a dialogue really.

 

it shouldn’t exactly be safe in the wilds or roads outside of Cloud Temple and if a bandit or raider stays in one place to long after causing misfortune then they are bound to be hanged if they are caught.

 

it’s also an important sense of duty for guards to have to drive bandits from their lands whether its fighting them on the roads or sacking their den. pvp is just as much of a priority as RP on the server when wars create more activity than RP events. it’s not my taste of RP but I certainly feel there are bigger questions to be asked.

I disagree. I believe that consent storytelling is becoming the new norm in role-playing, as it should.

We can agree to disagree then and also it’s not exactly the norm if it’s new.

 

I’m speaking of war-claims as LoTC as known them and while it seems like an ideal situation it is never really conducted in such a way. I can’t say I know everything but I understand it to a degree since i have experience attending and leading some battles and wars.

I'm not going to mince words to be nice here. This is 100% completely, totally and unreservedly wrong! This is an RP server. We are all storytellers here, one and all. Certainly, staff has more tools to tell stories, but at the end of the day, each and every one of us is responsible for creating and maintaining the story here. "We are the music maker; And we are the dreamers of dreams."

 

To abandon or disregard that idea is to say that you are okay with making your and other's stories bad. It is wrong to do so. And it is selfish. And, frankly, it's ignorant. There's an obligation inherent in being a member of an RP server like this, and it's why you need to apply. 

I didn’t say that we don’t make our own stories. What I said was in regards to creating stories in war-claims and that in war the story made is more dynamic rather than attempting to cooperate with the opposing side to write out a meta on how they would pursue the war. Our stories are forged by ourselves but are influenced by the greater stories created by the staff, but it is very lacking especially this map. Clearly, if you had seen my forum profile you’d know the many stories I have created and told. RP is always going to be a crucial role to lead up to the action packed events, but it doesn’t mean nerfing pvp and creating unnecessary combat rules is the answer to protect RP when it is clearly what gives the server most of its activity.

Both sides cooperate in good-spirit out-of-character to write a gripping and meaningful story in-character.

 

In all honesty with LoTC wars this has hardly been the case. It is more dynamic than simply writing a story and has always hinged on the unexpected. i don’t think it’s exactly the player’s place to be the story teller on the server when there is a whole staff team dedicated to that. 

 

imagine no villainy at Cloud Temple and yet as you exit are still hit hard with combat rules even along a road that might be considered the wilderness, such as the 3-bandit rule.

 

In my time playing the server I have come to realize it prioritizes protecting role-play so much now that it really kills any feel for adventure, or risk, or ultimately grief. Grief was one of the main factors of minecraft itself and i agree it sucks but it is crucial for a story to be told. I think there of course must be a place of sanctuary, but high stakes and action packed events are what drive LoTC with no doubt. There is an average of 110 players but on the day of a war claim the server is completely capped off.

((Not PK, just fallen ill and can’t get up))

 

After a night of feasting in the halls of Lur, War Lord Falum’Lur retreats to his quarters from the great feeding of slain beasts by the Hunters and Wild Orcs who glorify Votar as they dine. He grunts as he walks over to a large lump of hides and furs that one might call a bed and tosses himself into the cot. A night passes and a servant Goblin returns noticing Lord Falum had not risen from the cot which alerted him to call the others. Some of the Lur shamans return as they look him over and treat him in their odd medical examinations. After short review, the clan farseers look to the others and all agree between one another “Hiz spirit am being plagued by spiritz of disease” and begin barking orders to retrieve tools so they could begin their spirit walks to help him while his Lur wolf, Fenrir, guards his side as he suffers through the fever.

 

Falum’Lur has fallen.

4 15XX - Under Phaedrus's rule, the clans were reunified after a brief period of seclusion, tribute to the rex was expected from all clans, a holy warrior of the Church of Canon was slain in a duel, and most surprisingly - outlawed slavery and declared an era of industry.

While inspecting a freshly constructed Theruz Shrine, Falum’Lur notices some rustling in the papers below held in the library. As he descends he comes into contact with Malohk of the Yar Clan reading upon old Yars and Ancestors. Malohk notices Falum and explains “Mi wus readin sum books tryin to find anything on old Yars.” Falum’Lur gazes over the book the young Yar reads and begins to offer his knowledge to Malohk as he says “Theruz bless this lessun mi am gonna teach lat. I have known dub Yars that have flatted in the past years.”

 

“There wus a Yar by the name, Phaedrus. Mi wus too young to ever meet him before he was killed by Rex Kharak’Raguk but he was a well known klomper agh wus well verzed in the spirits.”

 

“The other was, Vorgo’Yar, who wus also my popo. He wus best known for klomping agh defeating the Greater Spirit of Disease, Orgon, but alzo zerved under Kharak as Targoth, Dominuz agh when da time came Rex. A internal wagh grew in the lands of Krug along wiff a foreign threat uf a Hooman agh Albai empire marching on San’Kharak. In da end, he wus flatted before da pink skin courtz for da blaming uf Orgon.”

Falum reaches towards his neck and lifts up a bone hanging on the end of it “Thiz iz all I have to rememba him by. They sawed off him tuzkz as prizes for ivory.” Malohk looks focused on the conversation as he learned of some of his clans ancestors and says “Vorgo wer lat popo? Mi think mi heard da name blahed but he sownds like a hosh orc. Mi cannub find any books on him though.” Falum remains silent for a moment as he begins to light a cactus green blunt and lets the incense of it smoke out the shrine.

 

“We nub need any books to lurn. All we need is da relic mi has in mi hand to blah with his Spirit in Stargush’Stroh.” he raises the bone tusk before the light and flicks the blunt towards Malohk “It might be hosh to take sum of dat medicine if lat am new wiff spirit walking.” The young Yar fumbles for the blunt but once received takes a great drag of it as he begins to say in a muffled voice “Mis been to the Realm uf Votar before, but nevur the Stargush’Stroh.” They both let the high of the blunt take them and begin to meditate while the smoke drifts around them and the torch of the library burns brightly.

 

Their minds grow focused on the tether and the chantings of the ritual grow louder their minds begin to grow warped as the foundation beneath them grows with tall grasses and the sky is drowned by the torch in a glorious combination of  orange and crimson. They rise from the grasses and travel through the thick of it searching after tracks that may have been left behind but only seem to enter a denser forested area. Before they knew it, the jaws of a large beast snap shut behind them and leave them trapped within the darkness of it’s maw. Malohk quickly begins to panic as he tries to find a weapon but Falum grabs and shakes him “Do nub klomp it. This beast is a Dunah Skhell.”

 

Malohk glares at the Shaman attempting to understand his words but leaves his trust and faith and lets him guide the spirit walk into the belly of the beast. They wander in the confines of the belly with the darkness blinding their every movement until a faint light can be seen. Quickly they begin to draw near to the light and turn to find a campfire with a skeletal figure hiding behind the smoke. Malohk begins to question why a campfire lies within a turtle while Falum begins to speak in Old Blah to the aging Spirit that sat before them offering his greetings to Vorgo of Yar. “It is always hosh to peep lat again popo.” Falum relays to his father as Malohk speaks up offering his greetings “Throm’ka, mi am Malohk of the Yars.”

 

The Spirit of Vorgo’Yar looms forward revealing his true orcish figure, his spiritual presence surges when the Yar greets him, “A Yar lat has brought? Nub many haz visited since mi flat, but mis been serving Yar klompin agh feastin alongside him.” Malohk bewildered by the spirit replies “Yuh gruk Yar? Mi ancestor?” and a laugh booms from the Spirit’s voice “This am mi home, yung Yar. This is mi realm serving unda the great spirit, Yar. We com from da same bloods, Malohk, da same peoplez.” The trio sat among the spiritual fire and talk to some lengths.

 

“So wub brings lat here, yung Malohk?” the Spirit questions the orc’s visit to his realm “It nub be an oftun thing dat sumash accompanies my cub here.” Malohk looks up to the ancestor and replies “I wizh to prove miself to mi clan. Mi am a hunta and dus it in da name of Votar agh Yar. Mi seeks the guidanze of the great ancestors, the legends of the Yars.” Vorgo reminisces back to his days of the Mortal hunt and says solemnly “Votar, one uf mi favorite past times. If lat wishes to prove latself stick tu lats roots, agh hunt agh trap a ferocious animal like the Dunah Skhell. Mi flatted a dwarf since the tales told uf a stowt flatting Yar. It myte be worth ztickin tu da tales and peepin lats luck wiff a jabbernak.”

 

The Spirit wanders around the campfire a bit longer and returns to his seat behind the smoke as some of his speech turns to the Old Tongue due to his aged spirit making it a bit hard to understand Vorgo “If lat succeeds lat will be glorified by lats clan and the ancestors. Yar himzelf will be peepin over the votar and peep lats worth.” The longer the descendants stayed the more the spirits speech returned to the Old Tongue and it begins to all weigh down upon the young Yar and renders him unconscious. Falum returns his gaze to the spirit of his father as Vorgo does the same speaking first “Mi knows why lat haz come here mi cub.” The shaman raises his head in curiosity of Vorgo’s words and asks what he meant.

 

The environment begins to shift and dematerialize around them as a vast forest sprouts rapidly from their foundation. The father and son begin running through the forest as if they were hunting in the jungles of Axios again. The Spirit passing between trees and bushes at incredible speeds returns his sight upon his son and speaks in a muffled tone “You visit oftun mi cub. A shamans duties am a heavy labor that must be done, but do nub let it affect lats battles in the mortal uzg.” Falum remains silent as he attempts to keep up with his father but is quickly being outran.

 

“Peep lat now mi cub. The fasting for the rituals is ruining lat. It uzed to be dat lat culd keep up wiff me but now lat am falling behind, lat haz grown weak.” The Stargush’Stroh quickly begins to warp as Falum’s magic power begins to exhaust him and Vorgo continues running ahead leaving the Shaman to fall unconscious, but before he does Falum falls to one knee and looks on after his father leaving last words for the Spirit “Mi will lizten tu lats words, mi popo. If lat wus willing to fall by the blade then I shall do the same as thoze many before mi.”

This young orc wishes to learn more of his Ancestors. I shall teach him

A lot of things occurred during this map that really took a lot of energy out of many orc players. We lost our lands due to rule-abusing honor duel between Elf Prince and Orc Rex just to recieve it back again and lose it again due to Krug Orc rebellion against Malin Elves on the Wonkawoods tile, apparently. During the time that we received the tile back the Orc community actually had about 40 players that were included within the clans but unfortunately it quickly went to waste due to the ‘rebellion’. Now Orcs reside in the deserts under Rex Murak’Gorkil and are once again trying to build their activity and role-play due to many veteran players leaving for irl duties or dissatisfaction of the way this map was ran. There was also a ton of orc region lore that was put into this map that was meant to be used for events to attract interest and players to the community, but almost all of it has went to waste due to the unfortunate circumstances the Orcs faced during Atlas.

 

Good to see you again Pok! Add me on discord if you’d ever like to talk again. RIP Drokon ?Stargush#6112

So me and someone else were discussing the topic of racial buffs. You know, the thing that gives certain races buffs  in PVP? With nexus on Axios, elves did more damage with arrows, golems did 4 hearts of damage, orcs get some bloodlust thing yada yada yada all in PvP.

Honestly as I see it, it would provide a great deal of balance between PvP and RP. Because lets be real, why would you RPly attack a golem that can do 4 hearts of damage if they call PVP? Same for every other race and ****.  I’ m genuinely curious and I wanna know what some people think about racial buffs.

remember to like comment and subscruibe 
 

 

I think the main reason racial buff’s never worked was with how they are set up and what it’s standards were of providing the buff. While many enjoyed the buff a lot loved to complain about it even if they were contradictory or in Orc buff’s case, they were whitewashes abusing the buff and then complaining that you could do so even considering they were doing it.

 

I find a large problem with it had to do with it’s distribution. Any persona that is created an Orc is automatically given through the player-process and the same goes with every other buffed race. This creation process is the first thing you enter upon the server so the buff is provided to the newest of fresh-blood players to work with, which if you think about it is kind of an overkill. I have explained to several people though that I find that it could be possible to just replace Racial Buffs with the Magic Plugin to make things simpler and the buff more unique. I am most relative with Orcs and Shamans so I will provide the example for their magic buff.

 

Magic users of communities are more often the most devoted and veteran of the server to their specific community. A Farseer Shaman has the ability to provide a mass evokation upon the Spirit’s of Shamanic people. If a Farseer Shaman did a blessing it could provide a large group of people with strength and allow the Magic User to provide the buff instead of giving it to every individual player that makes the race. It could work similarly with other magic groups obviously in their own kindred way. 

 

((I also find that it could solve a lot of problems between RP Combat Magic. The plugin was meant to put Magic on par with PVP, since it’s so easily powergamed it was actually meant to be avoided being used in RP combat.))

He got 13 kills I believe that’s not that far fetched sweaty pvp goons win battles where they’re outnumbered all the time, factor in the lag and the fact Tornado had a huge army to hide behind and its p believable

It is true that they can, but if you can’t see hits registering then you gonna have trouble knowing when you can actually pop somebody. It didn’t matter whether he had an army behind him or not, but it’s the fact that from the very beginning there was a spree of at least 5-7 people that he somehow killed without seeing his hits registering. In the end, it was a shitty battle anyway and one of the worst war-claims ever. Some people might think they warclaims have been improving and progressing but I find wars to be a problem when the whole army is sent to lobby while the other makes an impact upon sieging. There was no dynamic battle army v army.

 

It was 200+ people who registered to join a war siege, took the time out of their life to prep for something they put effort into, and then come to find out that probably 30-40 people total of those 200+ were the only ones actually able to fight. It wasn’t even a fight.

 

I’m sure you would be the one to know the best about PVP though. That’s all I got to say about that.

In what other war-claim has any single person taken out a whole half of an army, especially in the midst of lag which doesn’t even allow you to notice when your hits actually interact.

 

Call it a fight if you can? Most of the video is sped up so during the time in the lobby was a good 15-20 minutes passing.
