Soul Lag should appear whenever major(usually fast) action is performed, like swinging a sword or running

The issue comes when you do everything right to not get caught and some random person comes up to you and is like "Darkspawn test? :3"

You're telling me I have to UPDATE MY DAMN MODS AGAIN!?!?!?!?!!?!??!!!?!??!

This is based

Could you correct Hearth so it's Heath? It's a wacky typo in the og lore

ban murderers, unless they get a cool moniker jack the ripper would be a sick rper

Connection blocking potion priming should ONLY be for Combative potions. Change my mind

Now this is sick. When're we getting a Magic The Gathering version of Realm Rivals?

Why should I be subject to a PK clause if I purposefully don't learn kloning and just use tawkins for other things? It makes no RP sense

You'll wanna rp send a letter to Avindor played by Mr_Etan. Here's a public missive (and some general details) about it that can help you out:

I will throw out that there's a fun magic college run by my pal Mr_Etan that exists in the general Petra area. I believe it's located in Chambery, which is the port city next to petra's main city. Petra itself is also just a pretty fun place to be, it's quite relaxed

While I do see the intention of why this is being made, I don't believe it's wholly needed. I know I wouldn't be doing any sort of justice trying to explain my point as I can't get the words out right and I don't wish to be misunderstood. Instead, I will mention that there are many other magics also in LOTC that utilize medical terminology and mention mental illnesses. Additionally, as Kunuk said, many of these, and in other magics, fall under the "may" category. If someone doesn't feel they can portray it right, then they don't have to pick that side effect I'll leave off my thoughts with this post from a few years ago by Unwillingly:

They're turning the friggin lore gay!! Real talk tho, didn't read it but the concept is cool. Tbh there's no real reason not to have something like this. Let people play trans characters if they want to

It's a shame how it took 4 OOC wars to finally make an announcement about this. I remember having to deal with everything while I was helping Ravenswood and how the Reinmar NL and Celia'nor NL at the time kept trying to make meetings with the Ravenswood NL, but never sent a bird In Game. All their attempts at communication were done through Discord and there were a few occasions where, even after a meeting was set with one of them, they just ditched even thought we were around to accept the meeting. Even after the war has been posted, the Celia'nor constantly sent messages OOCLY to our NL saying stuff like "we can still negotiate." Also on the topic of war, once word had gotten around that it was going to happen, several groups OOCLY contacted us offering help or offering to participate in the war, usually in exchange for mina. I believe only one ever actually did anything RPly. While Im happy that this post has finally come out, it's too late for some communities. Even when attempts had been made to show that things had been done OOCly and had no real IRP basis, or just weak IRP basis(having 1 meeting), nothing was done and narratives driven solely by OOC wants were allowed to happen. I'll also briefly mention that I was an NL back in 2019 and things were also mainly done OOCly in discord DMs/group chats. While there was some RP involve, it was significantly more than what happens these days. Edit: Going to briefly touch on the whole RP Quality Standards thing. I semi-recently(in the past few months) had an absolutely BS interaction with a group of bandit "rpers" that led to a Mod being called. I explained why I thought the situation was against RP Quality Standards, and thus against the rules. The Mod who took the ticket said the following: "that is banditry for you it is not something the mod team enforces unless it is in extreme circumstances if people want to make lame emotes like this, they can its dumb but it is what it is" as well as "you're not creating a narrative by doing this, only being shitty to others Apparently Mods don't actually care about holding up RP Quality.

I get what you might be looking at, but I think you're reading it wrong. Just for sake of looking at things, I'll past the redline I think you're looking at here: -A Structural (Non voidal mage -3) modifier may only be applied once. This means, regardless of how many Voidstalkers or Obelisks are present, each only count toward the modifier once. This is just saying that any non-voidal mage modifier can only be applied once. So you could apply an Obelisk and Voidstalker at the same time. However, you couldn't apply 2 Voidstalkers or 2 Obelisks at the same time. Any more voidstalkers than the first would just count as a -3. I don't believe it means that if you have one you can't have the other This should probably read like this redline does: -A Mana Obelisk, at best, fortifies the manapool of mages within it’s range, reducing their voidal exhaustion by half. The difference is that it makes their spells cost half rather than them having 1.5x the mana pool. I don't think voidsalkers were meant to have 2x mana pools. Squak recently talked about it in the Story Discord sharing that they're meant to have the effect of Obelisks, which is the half costed spells Personally, I don't think either of these two things need to be changed. You already technically have to work with someone if you're doing Arcanium forging, everyone forgets you need a designated Smith. For the mana pool thing, I think it's fine since it's the staple thing of Voidstalkers. For Wither/Invasion, I don't think it's needed to have the line about allowing multiple Voidstalkers to cast wither/invasion on people in combat. I think the rule Wither has currently could be transferred to Invasion though instead where a Voidstalker can only Wither the same person once per combat. I can't remember if that has already been given to Invasion though. I also think that if we're going to make it cost a T5 spells worth of mana, it should also deal 5 points to Ward Shields Those are my issues, but I do like quite a few of the things you've given. The 4th slot needing to be voidal is really fun, same with the Anti-Magic part. It's always made sense to me that all anti-magic should do something like that to a Voidstalker. I've never used Arcane Replenishment in my life, so I have no feelings about that. Finally, for Wither/Invasion, I think the tells are important. More specifically, I think it should require you to place aura around your target rather than just around your hands so the target knows they're gunna get hit with something, maybe add this as an Invasion redline too. I also think the stable connection part of the Wither change is nice, though I wish it was able to reduce scions back to normal voidal mage levels due to their weird magic seals and being vulnerable to that sort of thing. Might just be me hating scions though

silence pvper!

I've had just as many, if not less, arguments during CRP default as I have during Defender Default. Defender Default just caters to pvp goons imo. The way we have it right now is fine

"Maybe I should reach out." Vulnaeri muttered to himself as he saw the missive. A hand was lifted up to his chin, rubbing it as he considered the illness.

My magic the gathering addiction is making me see it everywhere.... the stones are wburg..... mana rocks
