Did you even *read* my goodbye thread? SO many of the points you are trying to make I already addressed there.

Tavlin deleted with 19 CON and I still had a train left. I'd been killed precisely twice in about a month.

There's no way anyone was going to con kill me. If I had such a bad run that I dropped 37 deaths prior to age death/boredom, I'd have simply deleted.

Cotzibue got RoC before me. For nothing other than being a long-lived character that was pretty cool. Mine came with a pricetag of 2000 gold (which, thanks to Tavlin's in-game contacts and already hefty bank account, wasn't a terrible burden). The difficulty isn't really the point. The point is that a non-imm-played mummy during the same timeframe received the same perk (and it was actually VERY useful to that char, as it kept her alive for a few more deaths) for nothing.

For Tavlin, getting RoC was essentially a RP mechanic. Instead of emoting doing nasty things to a recently slain victim, I could cast a spell that did nasty(er) things to that victim.

Your arguments are beginning to sound more and more silly, I have to say.

As for the other mortals you mention, I haven't looked at them thoroughly, but I know that Sivyh got tattooed, immxp from Enlilth, edgepoints (for a quest), 2 trains worth of hp and immxp (for another quest), immxp for good roleplay, a custom title and custom long desc.

I wouldn't have been opposed to him getting more, honestly, for how long he played the character. Against some really crappy odds at times. When his whole Empire essentially stopped showing up to support him. Many of them playing alts. But I don't necessarily think he got shorted.

Rhone got Shokai's tattoo, which is a nigh impossibility these days. He also got imm lovin' for leading the group that was the first to kill Tiamat. He got an OP 1000xp bonus for being long lived and a good leader, like Tavlin got. He got immxp for various RP opportunities and quests ala Sivyh up above.

And I wouldn't have been opposed to him getting more, either. But I don't necessarily think he got shorted.

Gurzgred got Maranated "early". He got edgepoints via a quest. He got Captain'd despite an early rage delete. He got immxp for RP. He got an absolute TON of immteraction via the whole Borkahd thing, and then a CON quest. All in just over 300 hours. And most actually was done pre-200 hours.

I could go on but I'm done.
