I have a hard time playing characters that do not PK successfully, yep. That's not to say I don't try them (and last longer than 6 hours). My recent defense/air shifter Acolyte lasted nearly 100 (whoa, I know right that's a huge number) before I finally said "Wow, can't take this anymore."

Almost no Twist tattooees have ever been PKlicious. Usually someone gets a tattoo from me by being a (relatively) longterm char who has prayed a lot and/or tried to contact me via note/email.
>The 'I've been damaged by your dual-wielding axes and >pincering!' PSA is the perfect example of this. Not >necessarily wrong, but definitely the opinion of a light RP >player.
You're paraphrasing to make it sound sillier than it was. Shocker.

I'm kinda meh on using damage verbs because it borders on numbercrunching IC. The last sentence is silly and you know it. As for the rest? "Your secondary weapon was painful. Once you got me entwined, things were looking very bad for me." There's nothing wrong with that. It isn't high-end RP like sitting and discussing dark omens in the Chasm, but we aren't HappyMUSH, we're Carrion Fields. There's a place for both kinds of RP here.
RP is far more about doing and acting as your character (instead of your player) would than whether you typed in the word "damage".
