  1. A sneaky bird is going to make fun of Anethra later for this..
  2. I'm bad at games so I've decided to stream them. Heeeeeeeeeey guys so I've gotten bored and begun a Twitch Channel, it ain't nothing big right now cause I'm old and I dont understand how to configure alot of this stuff but I do have some things planned out right now for the week to try and get into it. For now at 5PM Central/6PM EST/ 3 PST/ probably midnight GMT I'm doing a Dark Souls 1 Stream with self limitations and death counter. On top of that I have a Questions system set up so people can peer pressure me into doing stupid stuff for shits and grins. If anyones interested in my suffering feel free to come on and watch! Otherwise I'm gonna try and start steadily streaming, put out votes every now and again to see if people want certain games to watch, or random streams where you can watch me and probably other players get our asses beat. Either way if you want to watch me get **** punched tonight, https://www.twitch.tv/keefy_plays_badly/about There's the link. Yes I know the page is ugly as sin, but I'm old and ain't ever done **** like this. Hope to see you harassing me in the chat later!
  3. [!] A letter arrives, delivered by a peculiar sparrow made of metal and gears "My name is Hareven Lorenthus, and I am well versed in escorting and exploring new places. I also have a plethora of means to provide extra amenities to said travel, for protection and comfort. I am interested in seeing these new lands you hail from, and would be honored if chosen to assist. If you wish to meet with me, a time and location is all that need be provided. -Signed Hareven Lorenthus
  4. You were free my brother. You were FREE

      Yeah, I was. I like to RP here and there and this is the only outlet I know that isn't some half-baked forum roleplay. Is what it is I guess!

  5. Aint ever tried it, I imagine it would be pretty mellow considering the flavor of baked bananas. Not sure how the texture would be though.
  6. Days going alright, finally got some sleep, now I get to have the tremors again from these god forsaken steroids they have me on. AAaaaaaaaaaaa There’s alot. For a specific one? To pick someone outside of my usual RP cadre and communities, Squaks Anethra persona. Cause I’m at the point on Hareven where I know how he acts and reacts and treats people without really knowing how to explain it, so seeing sane foils to it are very entertaining. Anethra is on a similar wavelength, but is the straight faced in the comedy duo of whenever they work together. They went to a piss realm (that’s what I will continue to call it Squak) and Anethras reaction was abject disgust, Harevens been thrown through some other realms before so he was just curiously wondering if there was air. Anethras a consistent pikachu surprised face to Harevens clown emoji. That’s alot of videos so I’ll link this one. I’m a rather big game grumps fan, @Sybbyl0127can confirm i have like 7 shirts of theirs and I consistently watch them daily. I also unironically look up to Danny from them. Yall who know me know I’m old in internet years, at 28, and I had a late start on alot of things cause I was very sick when i was younger. I probably didnt start being an adult truly til I was 25. I struggled alot with mental illness and physical illness and just not knowing what to do a whole lot. So this now 40 year old dude who runs around in spandex singing about unicorns and **** jokes who didn’t get his life truly going til he was in his thirties came off as something I greatly needed. That there was never a cut off date for getting somewhere good in life. I’ll link a interview where he talks about it alot. And lastly yes! I’m just not the best baker, but I love cooking. My issue is as a southern person, I dont measure I whole lot when cooking meals. I’m taste and instinct based, I just roll with it. WHICH IS NOT CONDUCIVE TO MAKING GOOD BREAD. But I want to get better at baking one day, there’s just too much going on and not enough space in our current apartment for me to go wild with that. **** someone up for some fresh sour dough though.
  7. Hareven once had a Doom-Slayer level loathing of it, and in return, didn’t respond well to Thuleanism. Not for nothing, but because his first encounter with both was during a turning point where @Swgrclan, @Gwynbleidd, and @ScreamingDingopersonas used it and others to rip open a portal to the Aspects Realm. Hearing three Gods scream angrily while you’re being used as a blood sacrifice does it to you. His having blood magic now, he approaches in trying to break it down and create a removal method, but has also caused him to realize some of his deep abided loathing was just pure irrational hate, and that the rest is pretty justified cause of what it does to your brain. My most memorable in character moment is a hard one to figure out. Mostly cause I’m cracked out right now, but one big one that was impactful cause of OOC knowledge was during the period after RideTheSkys Druid Torens PK Unattunement, which anyone who was involved with can explain was a cluster of just the funnest times (./s), Hareven was in a very low place. I will not get into the specifics of the situation but in the end he helped kill what he saw as a Uncle, who had helped him in various points, and it was also taking place during a low point icly and oocly for me. IRL wasn’t the best, I was working a dead end job, and ICly, Hareven was still coming to terms with having died (soul tree blah blah blah) so he was going to torch his own tree, and I was fine. Delmodans Druid at the time carried something that used to be extremely important called the Shapeshifters Tome, which was the crux of the situation. There was only one at this time, and it was vital to teaching Shapeshifting. So this is something very important. This is something people have died and fought and pked over by this point. Hareven didn’t know it existed at this point, but I did oocly. In a bid to stop Hareven from basically punishing himself, her druid just dropped this highly sacred object to stop Hareven and get him to sit down, and understand that if he felt he did something wrong, that was fine, but in the end it didn’t make him a worse person. It became a very important memory for Hareven icly, and me OOCly, and is why Hareven began taking more unorthodox methods in rather than trying to be “Hareven the Druid” he started leaning back into just being “Hareven”. Is there an OOC virtue you wish more players had when engaging with LotC? (Patience, cooperation, etc) Fuckin patience and communication. Right now I can’t get on alot which makes RP a bit hard, thankfully I have very good friends on lotc who work with me in thiis regards. I understand everyone plays for different reasons so maybe I’m just a little too chill cause I’m playing to make a story that I intend to end eventually. Not everything has a good ending, and that’s hard to process sometimes I understand, but there’s no reason to go after people OOCly for something you dislike ICly if it’s just a day to day thing. I’ve had people get OOCly upset with me I didn’t give them fancy animii stuff or certain magics alot, or get upset thinking Harevens attitude reflected my own. I’m just a dude. Generally most of the time I’m rping im giggling at videos about otters and ****. Just learn to vibe and talk. What does LotC mean to you? Has it been unhealthy for you before? Lastly, what keeps you here? Lotc is a club house. Or a YMCA. Not the song, but that too sometimes. It’s a place I can come to be with friends that I’ve grown extremely fond of. I’m sat in a good number of communities and I’ve gotten to know a good number of people that I’m glad to know. Has it been unhealthy? Oh yeah. I’ve been toxic, and sometimes I still am. I can be a little ***** at times. During my low points in life, Jaeden had to bedtime ban me a few times for putting 100+ hours per week into the server and disregarding sleep. But what keeps me here is my friends really. The server could shut down and I’d be fine, as long as the communities kept up.
  8. No cause I am not made for that sort of thing. Not on a server of this format. Where I came from, it was easier, cause the rp was light and it was largely political cause it was a six nation faction set up. The format here needs someone more stable than me, and those who know me closely know I can react poorly when stressed. Very poorly. I call myself in those moments a ***** boy. There's no excuse for it so I just try and be better. It's why I don't even vye for trainer or management positions. Server has its ups and downs but I don't have the time for higher levels and I don't have the energy to cope with what comes with that. I'm perfectly content being a simple basic member of the staff. But if the world shat itself and I ended up admin, I'd probably try and divide duties up better. Rifts done well in that regards, he delegates and seeks out help rather than strong arming it. ST right now is good. Not perfect we're all ******* bleeding out our ears idiots but we're at least finally consolidated and working with each other in tandem, and making sure people and positioned towards their expertise. I would also bring on more Builders. We need some of that good pixel ****.
  9. I’d probably delete current Shades. It feels very stale, and more of making a status by having a shade than say, playing a villain. And I’d like to see SoTA return in a different format. I realize it’s shelving reasons but I had, alot of good conflict RP with the people who played those, and I found the dynamic very nice, but I’m a man who can barely stay healthy for a month or two at a time, my opinions are weird lol
  10. He agrees Noone can deny quality tastes, our people run deep.
  11. My heart says yes My lungs say AAAAAAAAaaaaaaaa Tavern Times ahoy
  12. Probably, ain’t a caramel man myself so I don’t really eat either
  13. Can’t say, that’ll be dictated by how the rp goes. When you stop crying
  14. Hmm. So for any of you who have taken up my events, you know that I don’t do Hard Force PKs. I tend to, at best so far, perform Soft Pk events, aka if you die you just cannot participate in the plot of it anymore. But I do think some things are Force PK applicable. Let’s run this by with a Dungeon Concept idea. High Risk, you get in deep. Let’s say, you encounter a Patron, or Aengul. Something huge. That level of thing, that’s what I see as Force PK-event tier. Like if some homeboy decided to go and try and pick a fight with Azdromoth and lost, they should have to PK. That’s a MASSIVE entity in the Lotc Power Scale dichotomy. But if the event is say like Skavens or like my Basilisk thing? Nah. If people want to PK then that’s on them, but heavy risks should only be enforced when the circumstances match up. And I know there is a hefty playerbase of people who pk anything on death, and that’s fine. Everyone has their own opinions and thoughts. But as far as event pks, that’s how I see it. If you are facing down high level dangers, then that should be a fair risk.
  15. A monster. I relent to use the term ecoterrorist, but at that moment in time for Hareven, he was vastly confused and overwhelmed with more than he was prepared for. That all turned on a head during the Portal Incident which was so mentally damaging that Lich!Lefkos had to step in and help stabilize him, with Owl helping him stand back up. He sees his mother in Owl, that’s what struck him foremost when they met. If that wasn’t there to Guide him at his lowest moments, he’d either be dead or unhinged in the not entertaining way.
  16. So when I wrote Hareven, I wrote him as a ugly, diminutive elf. A grumpy little **** who wanted to make a safe place for people to enjoy themselves in. Then I rolled and got a dwarf cause DnD logic. At the time, the two biggest Dwarf clans were Goldhands and Frosties and they were in the process of that PvP life rather than culture cause Jberg just went down and so on and so forth. Which was doubly unfortunate cause I was meant to instead of a clan, have him raised from age 5 in Courland who disappeared out from under the server for a hot minute after Jberg and all that. So instead I started him as raised back int he day in Courland, at the ripe young age of 40, with Riftblades main normie persona Velenius/Aerith, in Axios Sutica. The goal hadn’t changed and in fact, if you remember back then, I did have a small tavern in the back of Sutica. But then the Guild formed, around Hareven and just how I generally played him. The goal was still there, but he slowly realized for as many people that started relying on him, he’d need more. More what, he didnt know. So I tried finding golemancers, that was the first magic I actually wanted, but not many were actively teaching at this time, the only two holed up in Arcadia didnt want to teach a beardling that was fair. Tried for Paladinism, under the logic of “If I was trained to fight, then I could host a larger tavern and protect the people” but I got turned down for being too short. Keepers were logical beings, it’s eh. And then we moved to Krugmar and that’s where he truly started rolling. We did all those adventures, he turned druid, he was a good pure druid too for awhile, and then he broke, and got back up. It’s been a fantastic story to play out. But the Tavern is still his goal. A place where he can help people feel safe, express themselves, relax, find shelter. He lived poor circumstances. A mug of mead was a rare blessing, warm food made out of more than basic potatoes and dried meat the same. Despite him being a raging mental disaster, he’s just a grumpy fuckwit who wants to watch people be people and be happy.
  17. Ups and Downs. The exodus from the Atherys community happened, way before you came along. Gamma, Rift, Chase, etc, we all settled into the server. Around the same time my marriage to my exwife whom you knew as Iris93 happened, so I wasn’t in a good place mentally for a long time. Lot’s of instability oocly, but the rp and community here, while vitriolic, helped me along. A year or two goes by, me and another lotc’r meet. We take our time and now we’re maarried, things are better. Got alot on my plate irl right now with my grandpas death and this illness junk but I’m happier than I was 4 years ago. Sometimes it takes squeezing alot of **** to get a little bliss. Dirty non-bender.
  18. Something something cousins something something meth something something getmethefuckoutofhere
  19. Hi hello howdy it’s Keefy coming at you again with being broke as ****. Thought I got Covid, turns out instead I got da flu, double ear and lung infections, and strep throat, and as of this post, some chronic issues rising up. Ask me some **** cause I’m gonna be holed up for 2-3 weeks cause of steroid rounds and antibiotics cause the worlds on fire, and cause I can’t sleep cause of the steroids. Amuse me.
  20. MORE DUNGEONS FOR THE DUNGEON GOD
  21. One of the issues to tackle is regarding this. Simplistically, bringing on more Builders would work out to avoid repeated instances, but these are voluntary positions and a consistent guarantee that a builder will be able and willing to keep building modules-builds for dungeon crawling within the limited amount of worlds we have on the server box. In a more complex hope is that the work our techs have been putting into plugins can be utilized for dungeons. There's also the consideration of forming Instances that don't require a ST, by way of plug ins ala tech and things like parkour, to simulate experiences, though these would likely be low-riskor scenic but still available options. But with some amount of effort and luck we won't have to rely on reskinned instances across 4 dungeon hubs, thereby transitioning us into a 1990s side scroller platformer.
