Please take care of yourself, and thank you for your efforts. I hope you make a swift recovery, and return to this cursed land to spread your mighty tales of victory! Now kick corona in the ass!

Telanir logs on “Wait... That isn’t me...This is illegal!”

Option C but use bridges across bodies of water to separate zones. That way its not ass intrusive and bridges can RPly have a checkpoint so its almost as if you’ve passed through that checkpoint in rp.

As I said in the post, you can only work on one category.

accepted

Would you mind if I worked on tech power and metal? Those both intermix quite a bit.

Which Category you wish to work on: Techpower

Why you wish to work on that Category: Mainly to keep the aesthetic of LOTC alive without limiting the improvements to the techlock. In short it would be a shame if the server appeared too modern, and while many idea’s are being discussed I personally want to ensure that the over all theme of LOTC is not damaged. I wish to do this by compromising using arguments from both sides of a discussion in an attempt to make an item both sides can at least somewhat embrace. 

What you want to see from that Category: Improvements in both civilian, military, and transportation along with others. Things such as cast iron bowls, or other every day use contraptions may be well suited for LOTC. I personally want to see items that will directly effect life outside of combat rp, while also wanting to keep combat rp from becoming too easy to abuse. I believe balances are needed and ideals should be taken from both sides of the spectrum. If one group of players wishes to see one item change, but the other wants the opposite it’s always wise to compromise. It’s also very important that these new items, weapons, tools, and technology increases are viable visually in game. For example you wouldn’t wan’t an item such as iron gates to be represented using oak fences. This would by common knowledge throw off the immersion.

Which Category you wish to work on: Generally a bit of everything, minus magic. I do not have nearly enough information in that department to be anything but a hindrance. In other categories I believe I can at least work as a middle ground.

Reenaava Caleesh’s eyes go wide, his soulless, slender pupils reading the note before him. With the tavern goers watching, a gargling noise emits from his throat. For many men and women looked horrified at the rather distinguished frog. The sound however only grew louder, till finally reaching a peak. Reenaava then suddenly in a burst of joy flung his head back hard, his back arching as a deafening noise filled the room. “SCREEEEEE!” Moments later, and with the taverns folk looking mortified, Reenaava’s tongue slung over his eye, licking his surface of his his eyeball as frogs tend to do. A scream filled the air as a poor woman looked on in horror, soon fainting. Reenaava was curious, confused to what was wrong. The folks in the tavern eventually returning to their everyday lives. 

Korna-Lin Tree

Reference

Minecraft Korna-Lin Tree (VERY MUCH WIP)
 

Material Name and Description (Raw form)

The Korna-Lin tree unlike most natural flora contains a unique, illuminescent sap that often forms bubbles upon its branches. Once a Konra-Lin tree reaches full maturity these excess bubbles of sap will fall gently to the forest floor as new bubbles will slowly begin to grow. These illuminescent bubbles of sap are often buoyant, and if not harvested may simply float away. Though its wood may be useless in harvest, due to the large veins of sap within, the tree has another purpose for its Wonk inhabitants. These tree’s would appear rather tall, with a twisted trunk. The leaves grow upon many layers, with vines slowly descending upon its branches the older it becomes. 

In some settlements Traditional wonks, and on occasion reformed wonks have also long since incorporated the Korna-Lin within the construction of their everyday homes. Upon the creation of a Tuma-Tuma (A mud hut) Wonks will often plant a Korna-Lin upon its peak. Over time and with great care the tree will eventually overgrow the Tuma-Tuma itself. Within the center of a Tuma-Tuma or at least somewhere notable within the home can be found a large pool of water that the wonk’s themselves work actively to maintain. This pool of water feeds the Korna-Lin, and in return the Korna-Lin purifies this water in order for the Wonk’s to scatter their eggs. This pool also works as an easy to access place for the wonks to hydrate themselves. This symbiotic relationship between Wonk’s and Korna-Lin Tree’s benefits both species, and has become a stable of wonk life.
 

Applications (Raw Form)

These tree’s somehow produce a purifying effect upon the waters that surround them. Scholars believe this has something to do with the Konra-Lins unique sap, that may work as an organic filter, that quality controls the waters upon which the unharvested sap floats upon. Because of this unique trait, Wonks often scatter their eggs around the Korna-Lins tree’s base.

Red Lines (Raw Form)

The Illuminescent sap even when processed will not glow any brighter than a flickering candle. In its raw farm this sap will glow slightly brighter than a simple camp fire, however by no means can this be used to blind, or negatively effect someone. The Sap cannot be suddenly placed on an ocean to purify its waters, these tree’s only purify the direct space around them due to the sheer amount of sap being naturally released by the tree. The tree may not be any larger than your typical oak. usually these tree’s stand anywhere between 20-30 feet before maturing, after the maturing process begins they will reach a typical height of 60-70 feet. These tree’s can grow no taller than 140 feet. If these tree’s grow too tall due the veins of sap flowing through the wood the tree would simply fall apart due to sheer mass.

Harvesting Method

When harvesting the sap you must wait till the tree is ripe, and the excess bubbles of sap simply float to the ground. These hardened and well ages bubbles of sap may then be taken to a smith, melted down at a low temperature, before being cast into sheets. The tree will drop these naturally but only once or twice a year. Attempting to remove the bubbles prematurely will cause them to burst, and in doing so will released a poisonous gas from within the bubble. This gas will often leave the victim struggling for air, induce vomiting, disorientation, and make the victim extremely light headed. The gas is not fatal, but attempting this too many times may result in a lower form of brain damage.  

The item in MC that represents these sap bubbles is a honey bottles, and glowstone powder which both come from the tree. Cooked Sap (Honey bottles) will to add to a tea, or brew. This sap can be melted fully into sheets. These sheets can create sap windows (honey blocks). When dealing with raw unrefined sap (Glowstone Dust) represents the Illuminescent sap that hasn’t been melted into sheets. Once the sap has been cast into sheets  it looses its glow. (Glowstone powder) represents jewelry made from this raw sap. This unrefined sap still retains its glow.

Harvesting Red Lines

The sap bubbles that falls naturally from the tree is what may be harvested. This is in the form of honey bottles, and glowstone dust. There are rules in order to using this sap. For a starter the tree’s will only produce this excess sap every so often, maybe even once or twice a year. Taking the sap directly from the tree would render it to shatter and be useless. Only the hardened, dropped excess sap is study enough for harvesting. 

Material Name and Description (Refined Form) (OPTIONAL)

Honey Bottles: Korna-Lin Heated Sap 
Desc: “This harvested sap from a Korna-Lin Tree has a rather pleasant smell. Upon adding it to a warm brew, the consumer will find their mind at ease as the relaxing texture takes over.”
Honey Blocks: Korna-Lin Sap Sheets
Desc: “These sheets of hardened Korna-Lin Sap are quite brittle, as if silver glass they must be handled with care. Upon inspecting the sheets one would find that they are rather transparent, and make a perfect window.”

Glowstone Dust: Korna-Lin Sap 
Desc: “This unrefined sap may be used in order to create jewelry, It is highly sought after, and glows dimly in the darkness.”
 

Applications (Refined Form) (OPTIONAL)

Traditional Wonks often gather this excess sap, melting it into long, often flat sheets. The now dried sheets of sap are then used to create windows. My carving into the raw, harvested sap one can easily create jewelry, and a whole assortment of decorative items, used by both traditional and reformed Wonks for the aforementioned beauty purposes. If one was to heat the gathered sap at a mildly warm temperature they will be left with a runny, gooey substance that can easily be added to a tea, or warm brew. This sap is extremely relaxing once consumed, and has no negative effects. 

Red Lines (Refined Form) (OPTIONAL)

This sap when hardened into sheets cannot create a blade. At the most at the very far extreme it could be used for arrows. The sap is just too brittle and would easily shatter under and meaningful impact. 
The sap if raw and carved into jewelry will not glow any brighter than a flickering candle. It must be handled with extreme care, forging the raw sap will cause it to lose its signature glow. When it comes to consumption the sap will not hide the taste of a poison. It simply relaxed the mind, and in taste is just a little sweet. 

Refining Technique (OPTIONAL)

Honey Bottles: Korna-Lin Heated Sap: It is commonly known that stirring Korna-Lin sap in a pot of boiling water will cause it to slowly liquefy into a creamy substance. If over heated, or heated to quickly the sap will quickly turn into a pure liquid and cannot be consumed. 

Honey Blocks: Korna-Lin Sap Sheets: If Korna-Lin sap is heated quickly in a forge, upon fully liquefying it may be poured into a cast. Once cooled the Sheets of Korna-Lin Sap may be used for windows, or in the creation of art. This sap has no other practical use. 

Glowstone Dust: Korna-Lin Sap: With a steady hand, and great patience this glowing raw sap may be used to create jewelry. This sap may not be forged into  ingots, and cannot endure extreme heat otherwise it will simply turn into a Sheet. Once heated this raw sap will quickly begin to lose its nutral glow if left unchecked. 

 

Refining Red Lines (OPTIONAL)

When making jewelry the sap is often quite delicate, and cannot be forged into any form of ingot. It can however be carved, but only if great care is taken. The tree may also not be used to make houses. It’s wood is too brittle for construction, and its sap will never be hard enough to create an effective blade. This sap is about as hard as untreated, thin glass once processed 

Repeat (OPTIONAL)

Purpose (OOC)

My intent is simple. With wonks starting to create their own buildings, cities, and culture I wish to simply provide a meaningful, good spirited flora that will create positive RP, and may encourage wonks to start using this to help with their professions, and traditional building. I think it would be rather interesting if the wonks villages and cities had such a signature item within them, and would be a great way for the community to have more unique interactions with the wonks. Currently wonks do the following few things. 1: Go to water and moisturize. 2: Screetch at people. 3: Do basically what anyone else does.

In my eyes there aren’t many tools in which wonks can use to sell their own natural resources, or create their own cultural RP. They basically do what any other average joe would do with the exception of skreetching and sitting in hot springs all day. Some have even gone into drug dealing because they is literally nothing else unique they can do. My goal with this tree is to incorporate it into an already being built settlement and upon the map itself. I want to full heatedly give the wonks unique things to do. They are such an amazing race, written by such talented writers. They are a blank slate, with only a few fundamental rules to help guide them. With the creation of this species of tree it may very well increase the positive roleplay.

I have already been told by a good portion of the wonk player base that there isn’t much to do. They often just walk to different water pools, and wait for RP to happen. They want something unique. This will at least provide that without being a determent the already established wonk culture. After all I think it would be extremely fun if wonks had their  own special jewelry that hey they could teach a jewelry to know! Anyone can use this tree, and in hindsight it might very well help establish in character relationships. After all the purpose of the world itself it to help create roleplay. If lore team wishes to make any changes I am more than open to that. This is my first time suggesting lore for the server, and I am bound to have made mistakes.

Ander Beck hears news of this pact, a grin appearing on his face as once more he looks to his satchel where the now dusty ledger of commissions lie. Upon taking a deep breathe, he gently lifts the ledger, sweeping the dust  from its leather cover. Almost in a sense of pride he unlocks it, going through each of the unfinished commissions with a smile, “Well... It seems my work isn’t finished yet? It is?” He questioned, peering down to the now adult fox that followed him around. “Well... back to work we go.” And with those words, Ander kindled the lamps, settling himself down upon his work bench. Throughout the night the Architect worked tirelessly, as if driven by some fiery passion, an urge within.

Briefly explain the lore behind this construct or creature:

The wonks are a lesser race upon the world of Arcus, a race split between two distinct cultures that represent the differences in the world around them. On one side of the coin you have the Tribal wonks, primitive, yet an effective sub species. These more tribal wonks were raised into their more primal ways through the teachings of the Orcs. These wonks likely are communal, and stay in packs. On the flipped side of this coin are the Reformed wonks. These are a people that left their natural territory, and instead began to slowly assimilate the many diverse cultures of the greater races. 

Wonks may live in up to a total of 120 years, but in theory can life only a hairs length longer if kept fully submerged. As wonks grows into their elder years cracks will begin to form on their once sticky, yet oddly smooth slimy skin. Wonks also will produce eggs once in their life, Likely at a younger age. These eggs are in clutches of only 5-10 and not all are expected to survive. These grow in tiny bumps upon the Wonks back, and will only survive once spread out among fresh water. The wonks themselves are completely gender-less though they may socially assign themselves a gender. Once a wonk is due to pass on, and perish its body will be used to feed the young to ensure that the next generation will live on. 

Physically wonks appear to be a large frog, that stands upon it’s hind legs. They have flippers, slimy skin, and large ever so slender eyes. Above this wonks are amphibious, able to stay underwater indefinitely other than to eat, and to communicate. This is especially useful in the defense of a Wonk, being able to flee from a hostile predator with ease. Wonks overall bare little muscle mass, and even scarcer still contain magical abilities.

Honestly this is an amazingly well thought out post! Amazing job! and I truly hope it gets implemented!

Greetings Travelers! Today I have created but a modest piece of humorous content in hopes to encourage the new found flippered friends!

If forum staff wish for me to remove this post I gladly will, I tried to keep it tame while making it also pretty spicy. Enjoy!

Ander looks in surprise, pondering over the logistics of such a decree. “Wait.. But I’m the only commissioned architect outside the royal city.. And how are they aware of such commissions? Ander thinks further, finding it odd, perhaps its some form of black magic “Only the Baruchs have started construction on their keep..” Ander unlocks his locked ledger, going through the pages as all the currently unfinished designs have yet to be disturbed. “How are they also aware of such commissions? These were done behind closed doors and sworn to secrecy.. Interesting black magic must be a thing I guess!” Smirks as he looks upon the decree “Such an honor to have an entire royal family aim their distaste towards me, How they gathered this information seems impossible but nevertheless they have it. What did I ever do to them? I never actually spoke to these royals.. How ever so curious..” Ander then begins back on his way, checking on his fox cub “Riley” which lay curled up in his satchel.
