Wow, where the heck do I even start? Oh, at the beginning I suppose.
I rolled Akedeh with the entire legacy setup in mind for one reason, to see if I could take out Tavlin alone. Unfortunately I never got the chance, but in hindsight I think if he came against me in the village he would of had a good fight.
How do you rp an overagressive self depreciating mage hating arial who stutters? Well, I tried anyway.
Imms :
Thror - I can't laud over how outstanding and lifelike cf feels when you are around. You push people to do things they would never have considered and you reward those people who take chances awesomely. That being said, you've got to come around more often man! You are just too good at this to not make time for it
Iunna - I only saw you a few times, but every time you came around it seems like the villagers peeked up.
Rayihn/Baerinika - I tried to rp with you a few times, as both your identities. I was truly impressed by how different you could portray the personalities.
Foes :
Puhguly - I freaking can't say enough good about you as a foe. You would take chances, try to recover your item no matter the odds, keep every thing in character but very sporting, and you were just a good enemy. I will miss our fights, you were my favorite foe and you should've given up on the island then came and pledged to the village.
Solec - CURSE YOU! I never got a chance to fight you with... well, you know what I mean. Oh well, this character could change the course of any fight, armadillo porcupine is just dangerous.
Dvalygg - You were one of my favorite enemies to run up against because the odds were almost always in your favor and it seemed like a true challenge, though the few times you got out of the areas you seemed to prefer to fight in, things swung my way.
Rindros - I adore this character, you were dangerous and have built one of the more dangerous chasms in a long long time. And despite all that, our conversations were fun.
Scree - Dangerous dangerous dangerous, my only beef is that you don't take as many chances as you did when we first fought.
Zynzyn - On a pk level, you really weren't that dangerous Akedeh... yet. But on a role play level, I loved me the S out of everything you had to say.
Eachainn - Dude, I tried to give you every opportunity to role play with me I could, but you just would either ignore me, or log off. Eventually watching you lead other marans to the village and then abandoning them so you could keep your leader position really started to irritate me.
Krunk - Sorry I had you marked, but you kept freaking taking the head. And when I confronted you about it, you didn't lie your way out of it or say you would stop, so I had to have you marked hunted. Fun dangerous character though, oh how I hate me some spinebreak.
Eleagra - For, the, love, of, god. Take a chance, and start to rp a little.
Friends :
There are so many up and coming villagers, I don't really know how to comment on all of them. So many stand outs it will be neat to see where the village goes in the futures.
Tontik - You bastard, I told you that you would outlast me. You need to start logging on and helping out the little guys, they are going to be hurting soon!
Boggom - Same with you, stand out dangerous villager. At first you rubbed me the wrong way just a bit, but you seemed to realize it and calm down, since then you've been both an asset in pk and tactical knowledge.
Mauz - I heart me some Mauz, be wary of the shadows you magicians.
Salyeris/Tousil - I am sorry I couldn't finish what you guys started like I said I would, I hope you see it through.
Well, it was a spectacular experience on all fronts. People say carrionfields is dieing off, but I can't disagree more. This game has never been more spectacular and if everyone would just take the time to log in and play against good or bad odds they may just see that.
Well, time to think up another role, see you all in the fields.

hahah, just kidding. Akedeh was fun to fight against, even though it was almost always impossible for me to win. The few times I did get lucky were just that, luck! You are literally the only char that's caught me with my pants down, but you've done it so many times!
I had hoped to start RPing a bit more with you, but alas, constitution's a biznitch. Sorry to see you go, good enemies are hard to come by.

I don't even remember if you got commander while I was still alive, and if you had I didn't live much past that, but I liked Akedeh as a foe the chances we had to fight, though I'm sure if I had to fight Akedeh at the end of his life our fights would have been far more one-sided in your favor.
You were ballsy to a fault at times, coming at the Island and pretty much everything that moved and was an enemy, head or no, and just throwing down without care if you died- which was a style I just can't seem to match. You really did start dominating me by the end though. Impale with an iron spear + boneshatter just ruined my day so many times, but we had a few good scraps that I recall, and you certainly had me on my toes when you were around. Partly due to the fact that you were the only villager to kill me in a span of close to six months.
Well done, looking forward to seeing what you come out with next for sure.

Taerg was always Solec's worst nightmare. And when he passed on, you seemed to fill his place perfectly. Deadly, well roleplayed, showed up in the damnedest of places. Your set up made me miserable. Exceptionally well done, and I'll see you in the fields.

P.S. The Village is much less without you. And that makes me happy.

All in all a very good character. You fought well and classy, the type of person I wouldn't mind fighting/losing to.
That said, there were a few things that smudged this character a little bit for me. I think your imm paranoia/dislike clouds your IC judgement sometimes, often unfounded. Telling Nexus you thought Baer was telling them where you were? Crazy talk. Baer wouldn't even tell Fort where someone was so they could go pk them, that would be dishonorable. No, she's not an honor god, but she believes in a fair fight. The idea that she'd IC go to the fence-sitters so they could go kill you? Purple meth crazy talk. Further, that would be walking an imm line of cheating, so it does seem kind of like you're not so veiled accusing me of doing so. Meh on that.
As far as the war went, I ignored it at first, but then Reksah accused me of turning Baer too nice and I realized he was pretty much right. Baer wouldn't roll over and take someone taking the Orb without repercussions. So, those that did were hunted. Yes, this probably made life more difficult for the Fort than the ignoring did, but it still felt like the right thing to do at the time. It racked up body counts on both sides, and I suppose at the end of the day, that's what CF is meant to do.
Eachainn can defend himself if he wants to, but I've never had any problems with how he handled things. It constantly amused me to see a bunch of neutral battle screaming coward at him.
So, all in all, good luck on your next. Maybe try a follower some time. I imagine it wouldn't be as painful as you think it would be.
Edited to say: Thanks for the compliment on being able to clearly distinguish my two imm personas apart. Sometimes if I play too much Baer, Ray gets a little cold-feeling, so I've been trying extra hard not to let that happen.

I can't say enough good things about Akedeh. Your roleplay was fresh and new, a breath of fresh air. You were a hell of a fighter but you had no problem sitting down and roleplaying it was just...it was amazing.
Good job.

I was/am a super fan of your character. I also loved the hell out of our fights. I think you were the only rager that I wouldn't just quaff out on during a close fight (if I wasn't trying to regain the key.) I knew that there was very little chance I had to actually kill you, but I also didn't want to cheat you out of a well earned victory either.
I appreciate the kind words, and I cannot wait to see what the next incarnation is. Hopefully I will end up alongside the next one, whatever it is. GLWYN and if you haven't ever done it, give Nexus a go.

seriously absoultey rocked having you around and you were a great choice for commander i cant believe i have outlived you out of shear meaness i guess ahhahahahah. Seriously though finals and chirstmas and crap really hurt my time for a bit but been back in force lately then you freaking condie on me.....
And cf lives for sure like you said, i had really great times with you and I would actually giggle a little to myself when we would raid and you as the supertanky char would have to flee at 30% and i would finish and be at 99% always made me laugh and i know it drove you crazy. Well I will be joining you really soon but we had one hell of a run, good luck with your next

Liked Akedeh a lot. You were an absolute beast to watch in battle.
Enjoyed your RP, but I never took the way you spoke as a stutter, per se. It came across, to me, as more of a hesitance, which I thought meshed amazingly well with your indomitable martial prowess. You'd Unspeak some mage and then report "Mage is, is dead." For me it added humility to a build that a lot of guys would have played off as Rambo.
Excellent work.
I had no idea whatsoever that you were that close to con-death. I would have loved to have quested with the rest of the Village to restore your vitality.
You'll be missed.

I think this was a case of two characters RP leading them to a place of IC consequences, or at least that was certainly the impression I got from you.
You were a very very tough matchup for Krunk, and you certainly came out ahead in the end, but hopefully we had some mildly entertaining fights for you. They were nerve racking for me. I'm not sure if arials have a weakness to sprinebreak (hollow bones), but it sure seemed like you got hit with it most every time.
Well played. Good luck on whatever comes next.

I'm not used to having such good experiences with villagers while I'm directly opposed to them, but interactions with you and a couple others in recent memory have always been great.
You seemed to have most of the Island on their heels, but Donderston didn't really understand what they were so worried about. As a player I could see how dangerous you were to just about everyone out there though (and me unless things went well early). Great build, and I've always wanted to try something similar.

Thanks for the fights. They were always scary. In most our fights a round or more would have ended me. RNG is a fickle mistress and luck's a bitch

It really sucks that our times didn't really mesh very well till after the holidays (sorry everyone, but we were both guilty).
I enjoyed the volatile nature of our (few) fights. Usually when you were on though, the veil was so strong (because other ragers would log on) that I couldn't get a strong pet to fight you, as evidenced by that barbed devil.
When you were on I knew there was going to be excitement, and thats all anyone could ask for. Always very strong and looking for a fight.

Gonna post as non specific as I interacted with you with a number of chars. You even landed a kill on me in the most surprising turn around. I thought your character was awesome, in a cabal that somtimes takes the cheap kill, you didnt. What little verbal interactions we had were top notch and the feel of the village was altered by your commandership (is that a word)? I've also seen a lot of quality balls to the walls guys that you inducted with top notch RP. Nothing but praise, really surprised they didnt just toss your more con, but maybe they did You lived the life of the character from start to finish and for this sir, I applaud you.

1) I really liked that you had an original take on who got raided and such and when. It's hard to manage something new under the sun there.
2) I think this character's particular speech patterns helped you a lot because it really helped convey the feel of the character.
