Security_

Father Casimir sheds a tear for an unlikely friend, a dear and beloved woman who left a certain hole in his heart. A candle was lit for the fallen Bishop, and a prayer in leave... "I will miss the banter, the theological arguments, the collective logos we shared.. requiescat in pace, dear friend, for I know you rest high within the Skies."

fixed it for u

As a long inactive Arch-Lich, this lore seems fine (too bad pallodium worked on it so insta deny.) Nuke the baby necros but give me darkstalker+ on launch date, I want my social security and medicaid!!

“A church under empire. A shame that history repeats itself.” A Wickish priest mumbled from within the temple of Owyn. “At least the matter of Sigismund was finally decided after years of pussyfooting around it.”

In a languid rest the missive was laid upon a table of some far off abbey, settled by shaking hands. The death of a fine man, a friend, and a spiritual father to many caused no utterance from the Father Casimir. For, what words could be offered but a silent prayer, and but a single lit candle upon the windowsill.

rattling bones???🦴

“Just as the Lucienist and Owynist was permitted within the arms of the Holy Mother Church should the Orthodox Canonist be permitted in this new age of True Faith.” Remarked Father Casimir. “Yet, these relics may only further the fervor of the flame-touched…”

The priest Casimir did not know the stories nor souls of who was deigned to die that day. For his blessings and ash left upon the brow of that man was all but burned in holy fire. Kazimir, a name not unlike his own, sat heavy in his mind.

"The invention of the printing press and its consequences have been a disaster for descendantkind." Remarks a skeleton.

while you’re at it, shelve draugars

Father Casimir reads his son’s thesis with an even bigger grin than Bishop Josefina.

"'Don't beat your kids,' the bastard whines to me. Don't turn mine into a demon, howaboutthat?" Father Casimir drunkenly mumbles, tossing a piece of mail, as well as the missive into a fire.

[!] A letter was penned for Senora Anacleta, pinned to the original missive within Hyspia. ~ The trees that bear good fruit are those nurtured and grown within their nature. A kohen straps a saddle to his donkey, readying a few bags of candles, incense, and lemon oils for a journey. “Bring up a hyspian priest, not a priest to hyspia.” He hummed, making way for the villa.

I would rather find another option as an alternative for black phylactery dust. With this addition, it pushes me to go to my enemies coven NOT to simply cause conflict, but to cause conflict for essence. I could merc their top necromancers, completely cripple their ability to teach, exist, etc. and walk off with archlich reagents. This would be fine with any other magic, but necro is rarer, and is currently in a slump state. Also the ritual only requiring one necromancer is crazy, it would at least need to require 2 to administer it to 1. I could sneak up on John Necromancer and just send him back to T1, making all of his students wait 5 months, and completely crippling RP. Perhaps another reagent, like a bunch of ectoplasm, 300 canonists heads, or anything would do better. Or just PK a draugar and have them cry about it.

necro bowl is what i order at jamba

"By the mercyflame our candlehearth of Wick is rekindled." A lone, modest candle was set alit, housed in the center of the newly announced Lord Wick's abode. "Let flame burn the foul errs of our past, yet illuminate the virtues of those who came before." ❖——————————✞——————————❖ ❖——————————✞——————————❖ "So too will the Lord and the flame be a beacon, a calling to a greater service to the LORD, and a warning to those who would stalk in shadow. We are not done yet." Casimir signed the lorraine, heading then to temple.

"A well fitting thesis," remarks a kohen clad in lavender and white. "An imporant reminder to not fall purely to the extreme of fire, of zealotry and purification - but rather to see the beauty, the utility, the divine in all the Lord Creator's creation."

“Finally, sensible sorcery restrictions. Corruption has been permitted for far too long.” A priest remarked, stamping a wax seal onto a long strip of dried papyrus. The Epistle to the Magi ran along its yellowed mould.

The main addendum I would add, and perhaps should be normal, is that CA's should be capable of defending their own phylactery. I remember years ago that Soul Tree Phylacteries are played by ST, and even if the Tree Lord(lich) isn't there, someone is able to defend it. I'd concede that CA's with Phylacteries should have a clause or otherwise to allow them to protect their phylacteries to prevent low tier break in and smash RP, or otherwise.

If you don't want a force PK, don't play or accept a CA that has a force PK system. Nobody is forced to accept becoming a draugar or wight. Firstly, addressing that it encourages metaplay: I have never really seen, nor experienced, a draugar or wight asking a friend to hide it in a nation or vassal OOCly. Typically, phylacteries have always been put in hidden parts of lairs, and specifically for draugars the phylactery has to be accessible by said undead, since that's where they respawn (this was to prevent hiding it behind 3 iron doors away from the draugar.) I will say there were (and maybe are, idk I don't keep up) some necromancers that simply ignored this, but it is always up to the CA to read their lore, and let ST know when rules are being broken. Can't complain if you never did anything to fix it. Otherwise, I don't think there's much metaplay at all with phylacteries - they're made, and it's fully up to the necromancer coven / creator to move and hide their evil gem. It requires tact, thinking it through, and communication IRP, typically you don't have much OOC communication surrounding a phylactery besides "where'd you put it so I can respawn there" and thereafter getting access and keys. This also is vastly better than old phylacteries. Physical builds require that the soul-harboring vessel can be seen, that ANYONE can interact with them. Old phylacs were just items in your hand, and were hidden in chests, never to be seen except when on the owner's terms - THAT was anti-rp. As for your argument of wanting to take a break, perhaps getting banned, or otherwise leaving the server, that is completely fine. Being evil is hard on LotC, it's a constant balancing act of wanting to enjoy and flush out your character whilst also being one of the main centers of conflict for high fantasy EVIL. You are the drive behind holy mages wanting to act like holy mages, riding the fine line between a WoW raid boss that is a soulless loot piñata that jaded old heads will 2 emote 'smash head', and being far too invested in self-preservation and making every interaction feel like your enemies are wasting their time going against an endless nothing-story. That being said, anyone who plays a character with a phylactery must accept that people can PK them. You can get banned, decide to take a break, get mad and smash it yourself, yet there are consequences to accepting the CA, and deciding to play it. It isn't anti-RP, it's a story, it drives the story to be a creature that can actually be completely removed from the world. I prefer things that are given otherworldly power, an edge over the common player to have negative effects - especially when playing an inherent villain that is there to make a story. If you don't want to have the chance getting PKed while taking a vacation, play a ghoul, darkstalker, archlich, azdrazi, unanchored ghost, paleknight, etc. Plenty of dark mages and CAs will get killed and just respawn an hour later to keep up whatever evil plan they were doing. In my opinion, it's more anti-rp when I kill a mystic and I see them respawn a week later as the death did literally nothing - let there be consequences. You undertake consequences when you supercharge your character with magics, you can't cherish your character's vitality while simultaneously diminishing other character's.

"The longest living dynasty, gone in a fleeting moment." A Wick wiped his blade clean of blood, a somber look was cast to the land his people once resided in. Was communion returned, was GOD's will followed? Or was this another title of land to bloat the unending avarice of a king. He signed the lorraine, unseating himself from a boulder nestled upon a midland mountain. Only time would tell.

"DEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!" Casimir cries aloud.
