4 o''clock PM, Day of the Great Gods, 26th of the Month of the Spring on the Theran calendar Szadrak perished, never to return.

Race:	dark-elf
Class:	invoker
Level:	51
Alignment:	Evil
Ethos:	Neutral
Cabal:	SCION, the Scions of Eternal Night
Age:	309
Hours:	219
PK Ratio:	84% (closer to 100% is better)

Damn.. both scion invokers gone, just like that... Anyways, good job.

Well, I was probably a bit too fast to categorize most ragers into the 'suckyness' category. You did very well the few times I fought you, I was impressed that you made it back to the village from Mortorn plagued and poisoned that one time (not sure if you had a defender with you though).

Anyway, didn't fight you all that much, but you seemed to know what you were doing.

Well, there goes my try at making a char, that would make an impact. I must confess I never really got into the RP with this char. I tried to become chancellor, but in the end I hadn't got enough time to devote to it. And in the end I suppose being an anonymous scion wasn't good enough and not really the fun I thought it would be.
I had some fun running around raiding and fighting, but in the end that is probably it.

Immortals:

Valguernara, Jacynth and Zulghinlour - Never had any real interaction with you other than the time when Jacynth was interrogating the entire cabal about why we were scions. To me it seemed blunt and odd. In general I was a little bit disappointed you all stopped being visible after all the chancellors perished. But I suppose you had more important matters to attend to or maybe our playing times didn't coincide.
If it was the latter, I suppose that is the curse of being a european player.

Allies:

Reddyn - You never paid me back on being one of the prime reasons you ever made it to lichhood... Anyway, you weren't half bad. A pity you deleted, and I bet you are gonna regret it. After you died like 6 times just after you liched and weren't even hero yet, I kind of expected you to croak some way or the other, but you came back and did quite well I think. I was actually kind of surprised at your deletion, but I suppose losing all the phylacteries one time too many do that to you.

Ralemos - Well, what can I say. It was a shame our playing times were so different, but I liked what I saw. Our hell trip was fun, but I kind of thought it sucked people expected to go through hell in 3-4 hours and when that didn't happen, they just left.

Bynote - Another char I liked. I expected you to take the chancellorship, but I supposed that wasn't ment to be. You have a lot of heart, which goes a long way in my book.

Illijin - Probably the best killer... But again, you didn't seem to have much purpose other than that. But it was fun fighting with you.

Zelthinas - Well... I'm just gonna say a healer will always be my best groupmate. I didn't quite agree with you in a lot of things, but we mostly did well, when we teamed.

Cuvatar - I really wanted to see you lich. You did so damn well with that char. I was really impressed. Just bad luck on your part I suppose. A pity our playing times didn't match too well either.

Ahuvezer - Well, after Cuvatar I thought you could do better, but I suppose healers wasn't your class (Not mine either).

Musbaden - Well, you were just a big disappointment. If I had known how things would have turned out, I wouldn't have given you the ritual.

Neeo - Damn, you cracked me up with your note about bravery to Scion. I wonder how you ever got into the cabal in the first place... It was just so misplaced. But then again, you got the boot in the end.

Khaelben and Gaenlin - Well, you two were among the worst leaders I have played under. Gaenlin dropping link when the odds were against him and afterwards coming with some lame excuse about RL. And Khaelben just not showing up.

Drucyrus - I planned to make you pay back for all the help I gave you, but I just never got around to it.

Enemies:

Intronan - You are the best. No comparison... It was always exciting when you were around and I think we did have some damn interesting fights that could have gone either way. You got me in the end though, but after the fights we had, it was kind of an anti-climax. Mostly my own stupidity though, as all my deaths were.

Other ragers - Well, I must say... Most of you sucked bad. I could beat 2-3 of you down alone most of the time without any big problems. And most of you kept spamming cranial on me, even though it had no effect.

Dwimmerling - Well, for a maran, you were a damn wimpy paladin. I never saw you raid, even when I was alone against 5 enemies.

Khadii - Sorry about the force duel, but I just wanted to try it. I know it wasn't exactly stellar roleplay since I never interacted with you. But then again, since you immed shortly after, I suppose it wasn't a big loss for you.

Well, I don't have much else to say about those I fought other than to thank you for most of the fun I had with this char.

I probably forgot a lot of people - TOO BAD!

I had a lot of fun with this char, but I haven't got the time or will to dedicate to it presently, so I'd rather crash and burn than fade out. Spent too much time practising, but that is the curse of the invoker.

Szadrak has left the building.

Thanks man, and well done. The recent raid of you four, you, Illijin, Astirath, Meridius, against me, Katisae and Nerylana ranks as one of the most enjoyable fights I've ever had. What a great battle. Finally finished you off once... but that was what... one out of 100 times? Good gob.

Sure, don't forget that one Assassin who is around a lot and actually defends the Chasm.

Seriously though, it always lifted Meridius' spirits when you came into thera, because you were competent and would actually go and fight with me in some of my stupid conquests. Oh well, at least you weren't Illijin, who walked us right into that Snare..then got me killed. *growl* I'm very glad he is out of Scion...now I just need to put my tiger to his throat.

Meridius the Lonesome Defender

Actually... Sorry about forgetting you. You were fun to be around. And you weren't half bad. Perhaps you took a bit too many risks, which would get you killed a bit more than you had to :P
But then again... Isn't that what it is all about?

It was intended to be blunt. Some people are thick. Sorry you didn't get what you wanted out of the cabal. I've said it before and I'll say it again. We're working really hard to change a lot of things and it's not going to happen tomorrow so you're just going to have to be patient. If you don't like how things are going then change them, but don't complain about them.

Hey, Jacynth, don't take everything so personal. It was an afterthought. I don't deny that if I didn't get what I wanted from the cabal, it was most likely my own fault. Which is why I deleted the char after all, due to not being able to put in the time and spirit to seek out my goals.

I have no doubt you work hard to flesh out the cabal, and I know it takes time. What I got from the cabal wasn't all bad. As I said in the end of my note, I DID have a lot of fun and I would prefer Scion over many of the other cabals any day.

Still there are things I would have liked different, but isn't that the way it always is?

I applied to the fort about a week and a half ago, and havent been around much since I got in, but before that I still helped retrieve a lot, most of the rest of my time was spent rearmoring after incidents like this

that is, by the way, right outside the crack, before I was a maran.

I had my own ##### to do. Now I have other ##### to do. I'm just getting warmed up still is all.

Thanks for your help, I would have been happy to pay it back. I haven't been around much lately, I've been very busy OOC. It was refreshing to group with someone for a change, my life is quite solitary. I always love grouping with invokers, together we can usually take out most creatures in Thera. Anyway, good luck on your next character when you have time.

P.S.

You were with me in my first and last scrap in ages there in Mortorn, it was fun. I have been away for so long, I almost forgot how to fight. I'll post it on the log board.
See you around.

I wouldn't have normally posted anything, but here goes. I dislike being trashed without a real IC reason (like you had one anyway)

Khaelben and Gaenlin - Well, you two were among the worst leaders I have played under. Gaenlin dropping link when the odds were against him and afterwards coming with some lame excuse about RL. And Khaelben just not showing up.

Don't even talk about 'not showing up'. You were never around for a good time, even when I was on at all hours. We were getting our asses kicked because people like you would conveniently show up when we weren't getting our asses kicked and just bolster our win. Either you had an inside connection a la IRC/ICQ, or you just got lucky. I saw you for maybe an hour or two total throughout my time playing Gaenlin.

I will concede, however, that I too didn't enjoy him taking the leadership and leaving.

Yes, there are more important things than this MUD in the world.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Oftentimes, I was sick of you never showing up, you and Illijin. At times we were sorely in need of an invoker, and it was even during European playing times. Why didn't you show up?

Then Ralemos makes leader and suddenly you're on so much more. Come on. I know a rat when I see one. There were about ten times to every one that I had to lose link that we were getting our asses kicked and I stuck it out. You not showing up because you heard about it through the IRC grapevine is worse than me 'dropping link conveniently'.

Ok, looking back at my logs from after I started logging everything Szadrak did (after you inducted me)... I played 25/6-12/7 every fricking day. Averaging at least 4 hours a day as far as I can tell from the file sizes. After this I played 14/7-18/7, 20/7-24/7, 26/7, 30/7-2/8, 4/8-5/8, 7/8-8/8, 10/8-15/8. My login times here were probably a bit less, but still averaging 3 hours each logon. My playing time actually declined in the later days. After this I deleted.
Furthermore I rarely played the same time as Ralemos. After he made leader, I think our playing time coincided 2-3 times. One being a hell trip where he asked me to participate through a note.

In this time I at least saw you log in and drop link 5-10 minutes after 5 times.

Well... I don't have the time or desire to go through the logs, but if you want them... I have a 100 mb chunk for you to browse, just submit your mail.

I'd rather you didn't send me the 100 megabytes of extraneous text, but if you want to mail me, you can mail me at: gaenlin_tar_melek@hotmail.com.

I think it'd be better if you did, so we could talk about this in a more civilized manner. I don't really feel like arguing with you over semantics. Suffice it to say, I don't think your trash-talking of me was at all warranted.
