    Freebuild on arcas was such a hassle staff wise to deal with landscars and mega builds never getting finished. There are loads of realms handing out land for merely approaching them with a group and asking. 
     

    On another note, I hope a system is found to reduce the tiles mega nations own with hardly any RP. 

     

    freebuild ptsd

     

    whoever was in charge of handling freebuild burned out

  2. "Sigrun yeh focken bullet points are off again yeh goober." Noted the immensly obese Khenarlum Doomforged, from the clanhall. "Eets da same shoite evrytoime ey."

     

    An elf by the name of Raziel Amethil raged too, for he had discovered a spelling mistake! The nit-picking elf wildly gestured at 'Silver Pheonix'.

     

    Silly and petty fellows, the both of them.

  3. "Damn," Is all Brother Vasyl had to comment for a moment. He ripped one of those missives off the tree and took them with him as a souvenir. "I trust Haense a lot evil but this... this seems a bit far-stretched. Not to say I think someone is making up stories... though- it would make a good one! Maybe I should write missives about the King of Aaun actually being Azdromoth? I bet that would sell..." Yet, he decided against either and went back to honest farming.

  4. My spook character I played for almost 2 years now has never been spook tested. Most people dont even oocly do not know he is a spook CA. It's glorious. Well, besides the people who got their souls sucked out.

     

    But if you have 'notorical spook rpers' who rp really edgy looking characters. You are black and red dressed? Talk about Xion all the time? Man - it's obvious youre no paladin.

  5. "Ah yes- surely. We'd have taken peace, if we Adrians could just settle elsewhere. But you wish to rob us not only of homes and lives for defending ourselves! Alas no, you intend to kill us all.

     

    Your own ally, the Queen Sibylle has admitted of your wishes: You do wish to destroy us all."

     

    Vasyl Otto thus returned to the monastery.

    Artel drums his deamonsteel fingers on his desk as he reads the words "Adria" he mutters "once more they change their name to try und get away from their past mistakes, Adria died und Veletz took its place, now Veletz has died und once more Adria returns" the drumming stops suddenly "if our leaders fall for this again ich fear for all of Aevos"

     

    "Adria never died. We were always still here. A simple vassal." Vasyl stated plainly, "Perhaps you should have checked more closely."

  7. Comparing humans and elves is a really bad thing, that does not work in itself.

     

    Elven Subraces are essentially already cultures. While this is an immense oversimplifcation - but most wood elven cultures, high elven cultures etc. are not that different. Elven cultures, from wood elf to high elf for example differ significantly more. Core believes are utterly different.

     

    However, another issue why you should never compare Elves and Humans is that their niche of RP is completely different. Or moreso, their attitude towards roleplay. People who play elves usually tend to focus more on individual stories, compared to humans who typically are involved in noble roleplay, that in addition is significantly more focussed on a national story, or the story of a culture, family etc. If you care more about your individual characters story, you will care that you roleplay in an active city - which causes elves to clutter.

     

    And, the most important thing - ambition and organization. That is something I've noticed while being active in both groups VASTLY differs. Most people who play elves have little intention of starting their own group - why would you, if your characters story comes first? Human players, from my experience - are incredibly amibitious. Far more people will try to go further with their characters to strike out on their own and so, as you said create their own settlement.

     

    But that is exactly the issue - that ambition is why they never sit in a city for long. You've had such phases in Oren or Haense - but even then there's a certain ambition. Because typically, all these families in - lets say Haense, have a background: For example the Waldenian Barclays. They are not a Haenser family, but have their own lore and history. Human characters are typically created as such, a part of a family with a history you can in 70 % of cases trace back 10 irl years. Elven characters are just often nobodies. Elven bloodlines that go 10+ years are much more rare.

     

    Look for example at Celia'nor: Their relevant families are: Ibarellan (~3 years old), Cerusil (2 years old), Py'lrie (3 years), Wynasul (3 years - kinda. But they can be traced back further), Nullivari (7-8? They're kinda the expection.), Athri'onn (3 years). Why are most of them roughly that age? Because thats when Celia'nor came to be. They even barely care about cadet branches, or they are vastly unknown. Haense' families in comparison: Barbanov (from Carrions, so 12+?), Ruthern (from Carrions, so 12+?), Stafyr (12+?), Barlclay (idk but I saw them 4 years ago already...) When elves know their lineage perfectly it is usually for simpler reasons: My current Celianorian is 108. His father is ~450. His Grandfather is ~880. Aaaaand... we're in Aegis already.

     

    What I am trying to say here - the focus of Elves and Humans is so different, and its only natural for humans to split up. Even if they're not in different realms, they'll just create 100 vassals. It does not really matter.
