I had a good time with this character, right up until hero ranks. For whatever reason, I just don't feel competitive there.
Shamen: I liked my paths, but as I mentioned to someone: Pain + Anger gave me a toolbox with a ton of different, beautifully-crafted wrenches. The problem is that oftentimes I needed a screwdriver or hammer to have a chance in many situations. Dying: The playerbase is pretty classy when it comes to looted and getting looted. Nabor, yeah looting some of your clothes was ####ty, but I logged on naked one day and taking your clothes was the easiest way to get back into the mix. I gave you plenty of opportunities to get back at me. Try keeping it IC instead of complaining about it on the forums with your real handle. Empire: Yeah, I broke Imperial Law on occasion. Yeah, I expected to get smacked down IC for it. Yeah, I would have manned up and taken my punishment. It was unfortunate that I DIDN'T get in trouble. That's what my role was about: being a sucker for punishment and pain. Thumbing my nose at Imperial Law here and there was a way to get what I wanted. Unfortunately, some players cannot handle that, thinking that Imperials should ALWAYS do X, and when Imperials do the unexpected, they whine on the forums about it. Don't take the bitch way out by posting logs. Keep it IC.
Arvam, thanks for all the smites + punishments. I am so glad you are back. Gedunthos, congrats on finally getting Emperor. I was pulling for you. Soviatos, sorry for leaving you all alone, but you are doing a wicked good job as High Priest. Ruk, HUGE fan. Crraya, HUGE fan. Fortress, you're all a good bunch individually, but as a group it's not even worth the effort of playing until most of you log off. It's not a collective fault: play what you want to play, when you want to play. Had great talks and interactions with many of you.
Lots of good players in Carrion Fields. Keep it up!

If you would like to further claims of an imm conspiracy, You are free to do so on the Gameplay forum. I would humbly ask you not to do so on this death thread.

You can't possibly think to take me seriously. Leave that for ORB. I have to take my cracks at newbies though.
How do you only have a little over 200 hours? I think I remember fighting Dalthies as far back as Grimik in the early levels. Pretty rare shot at playing? Do you have much issue with limited gear, etc. playing at that consistency?
Am I getting the name wrong? I don't think I ever saw you as Aster, but that was clearly after Grimik... hmm

With those types of posts, it is hard for me to determine intent anymore.

I played off and on since August. No, I didn't have any issue due to limited gear. I did have to drop link one time while adrenaline was gushing (no, not to avoid PK) and got somehow killed in limbo and lost all my gear, but that was it.

PK me, loot me, chastise me, report me to my sect leader or emperor, write a note to Empire, write a note to all, expose me for being a ####ty Imperial. All of these are IC methods to punish me for what you perceive to be poor Imperial behavior.
Taking IC behavior to the forums is, IMHO, is exploiting an OOC mechanism to change things IC.

I don't mind getting complaints IC about my char's behavior. I did take issue with people using forums and logs to complain about the character.
Thank you for the compliment by the way.

I had an air/offense shifter in Empire that blatantly broke imperial law, while several of the council were logged in. They asked why I was wanted and I lied about the circumstances. Took me weeks of doing it before an Imm stepped in and booted me.
Jerry is a great example. He has had villagers get booted right away, villagers get booted after a while, and all too many delete/die that were not booted but pretty much everyone (including the village leaders and imms) think should have but he managed to get lucky enough for various reasons to keep his hut until the end.
His behaviour does not change all that much from 1 villager to the next but his success in avoiding the boot fluctuates and this is as close to a controlled experiment you can have (same player, same cabal, same pattern of behavior, same immortal leadership, etc). At the end of the day, sometimes people get the can, sometimes they don't, it happens more often to people who deserve it (the boot) but can happen to those less deserving more swiftly or not at all even.

Not everyone is snooped or watched at all times. I had no idea who was playing who and I thought Daltheis should have been High Priest. That isn't a knock on the current High Priest. It is quite probable that nobody from the staff noticed.

Idk, but as Sicarus I broke Imperial law every chance I got. Never got in trouble. I mean some players got mad at me, Jerry was throwing a bitch fit, but no consequences.

Meaning plague + energy drain + flee. I had ever so slightly less chance of killing you than you would have of killing me if I was a) Not linkdead b) Not in a suicidal rage, which is to say more or less the exact % of a cleave instakill. I almost never lost a PK as long as my connection and my temper held out, I don't see any reason why you would.
"Some of my clothes" to be clear means "Every last item in my corpse down to the stack of esoteric wands and scrolls in my prep bag, not forgetting the pies" (admittedly with the exception of the limited abs).
I actually quit playing for about a week after that, so as far as I was concerned I was done and there was no problem with posting about it on the forums.
I more or less forgave you because I did something similar to recover from a full loot with another character (I didn't take the prep bag, it was my own kill, I offered a rematch without fleeing, and didn't seal the multi-kill when I had them at my mercy, but I still took 2/3rds of that poor gnome's gear) but call me out on this and I will respond.

Well some error occurred trying to write my first goodbye so I'm keeping this one simple.
Great character. Your RP was twisted and always spot on, which is an element often added when IMMs play characters and that I is something really enjoy when you do. After a few skirmishes and your statement about preferring one weapon over another, I obliged and whenever I thought I'd fight you, wore a whip. You taught me a lot about new shaman mechanics, so I was happy to do so although I did want to leave bruises too.
FWIW I feel that characters like this one set a bar for others to reach RP wise, even if not PK wise, and that is one of my favorite parts to this game. I hope to see you in the fields again soon.

During my midranks I seemed to spend my entire time fighting either you or Finley. Both characters were very well roleplayed and both made the constant battles very fun - even though noone really ever got killed.
I had been hoping to see you as High Priest, but then your times dropped off... and just a few days ago I saw you again and was hoping your playtimes would start to bump up again.
Oh well. Loved the RP. Enjoy your next.

Very cool character! I remember our first mini scrap in Darsylon and the time I asked to find out more about you so we chatted in front of the palace. Tense. Was looking forward to more war with you. GLWYN.

Oh too bad, I liked you. You were my nemesis at mid-ranks, and fun to interact with. I was just trying to keep up!
Then your playtime fell off and you started avoiding me, which was too bad. I'm still kicking myself for using fatigue instead of dispel evil in the hidden room.
