#72534, "Destim is lost beneath the waves"
|
Sorry, to all who invested time in me. Work and school caught up with me, and I no longer had the free time for Destim. After two weeks of a schedule without much free time, lost the spark which originally pushed me to play the character. It was poetic justice for spending so much of my worktime fooling around on Kernagor. Heh.
I find I really like playing deviant roles, but I really should have rolled up a cookie-cutter or two to get the hang of the relevant cabal/religion first. First time with Rayihn's religion, first time with outlander, first time with shifter. Also, deviant roles are *hard* sometimes. I would see this easy kill sitting there, maybe a shifter out of form or a guy innocently poking around somewhere cursed, and I'd have to restrain myself from the evil outlander kill everything response and go up there and try talking, first. Not really killing many people outside of cabal situations is much harder than it looks. On the plus side, just sitting there talking to people can actually be a lot of fun. I was much more outgoing than usual and surprise surprise, if you talk to people they sometimes talk back! Its a wonderful thing.
Sorry, Rayihn. Really enjoyed following you. Was pretty crazy, though. I had the idea for this guy three months ago, wrote up his role and background stuff. Then, when I finally rolled him, I realized that the role had changed so much over the time and editing that I had no idea what was going to happen to him. I knew after the first interview that if I would continue this role as I had designed it, I wouldn't be a good fit for your religion. I grew to like the character idea too much, though, and I didn't want to throw him away, so I decided to play it out anyway. You were tons of fun, and I absolutely loved a few of the bantering conversations, a few of the serious conversations, and some of those awesome echoes. Can I shoot an email to rayihn@carrionfields.com (if that is your address?) I'd love to hear some feedback and I've got a few suggestions and a bit of nostalgia.
If you were mortal and you talked to me, I probably lied to you. Sorry. Nothing personal.
Some goodbyes -
Jayundar - One of the cooler inductions I've been a part of, though you made me spend 5 hours of my life figuring out those damn quests (I hate quests! The solutions are so simple yet always go completely against my intuition). Argh. I really like your creative use of emotes, and I always enjoyed interacting with you. Destim really wanted to kill you, by the way. Originally he was planning to use Lothrac and an Imperial gank squad for this, but dammit, he got anathed and deleted. Bastard. You were also the only mort (I think) outside of Ryasyn who knew of my connection with Rayihn.
Padwei - one of my favorite mort interactions, ever. I'm glad I had a chance to talk with you in-depth on Destim, since as Kernagor I found you were one of the less talkative forties. I would have seriously missed out otherwise.
Istihl - Very evil outlanderish. Heh. You were one of Destim's closer allies. This meant that Destim wanted you dead, too. Especially after you screwed up a few of Destim's manipulations. That cheetah is nice and you were pretty good with it.
Sammuel - Interacting you was fun, but I was always on the edge cause I was absolutely positive that sooner or later you'd have figured out that I didn't actually follow Beroxxus. Heh. You just made that assumption after you saw that burning title, and Destim just rolled with it. Nice forms. Hyena tiger, pretty vicious.
Lothrac - Damn you for deleting. Arrrrrrr. Destim was totally planning on dealing with you in secret once the outrage over our previous partnership had died down. Would have been fun to have a way into the empire. Thanks for the wand location help! Saved my ass.
Tlingit - Thanks for the interactions. It was interesting talking with you, and definitely staved off boredom.
Ryasyn - The only other follower of Rayihn I knew. Thanks for the banter and taking some of my ribbings with good grace. Destim wanted to kill you. I ended up holding Destim back, though, since I felt bad for all the heralds, having been on the end of several nasty evil gank sprees long ago on my own lowbie inn-sitter. Multi-killing heralds should give you negative PK ratio, not positive ones
Etielise - I was totally planning on killing you, since you were Ryasyn's lover and Destim was curious to see what Ryasyn would do if you were taken from him. In fact, you were the only herald I seriously intended to kill. Never got the chance to set it up properly, though. The time was never right and, again, I always feel bad for heralds.
Erelia - I had the chance to kill you a few times. Decided not to, though. Its cause I'm a carebear by nature. D:
Lezra - You'd rape me one on one in a fair fight, and you know it. Thats why I avoided the crap out of fair fights, after the first time or two I died to you.
Anyone else, post and I'll respond. I'm sure I've forgotten some important people.

haha really liked traveling with you! I remember when we caught bok and the two imperials with there pants down... Ah it was funny, I told the captain that i just hoped to scatter them, and out of NO WHERE you two showed up! It was great. I enjoyed all of our interactions, and I cant wait to see what you come up with next!

Enjoyed our brief interactions. I figured it had some interesting possibilities if you were indeed afflicted by the burning fever and were open to following Beroxxus.
Might have led to some cool uprisings in the Outlander cabal to have a secret Beroxxus worshiper, (since the Ancients despise him.)
I kinda threw it out there with hopes it would lead to some interesting game dynamics. (Knowing realistically, it would probably never be...)
The role-play and interaction part of the game is what keeps things interesting for me. I applaud your effort in this area.
Just wish I had more time to actually get into characters. AHh the good old days, of having 7-8 hours a day to go hard-core. It is so damn hard to get to know people in game, get involved in the cabal dynamics and maintain a presence in the game, with only 2-3 hours a week to play.
Lightmage.

In days when Thera was still young, powerful beings roamed the land. These entities would later become known as the Ancients. These young immortals set their tasks to shaping and influencing the world, and the one who would become known as Beroxxus was no different. As a young immortal, the Ill Omen was given the task to provide revelations in obscure omens and signs. This in turn limited who he could influence and guide, as only a select few had the wisdom to interpret such meanings.
An Ancient of lower standing, Beroxxus was not content to just hold the little influence he had. Ambitious and cunning, the Ill Omen set about searching for a way to gain more power. Through his study he discovered the darker planes. Places where good did not exist. In his divining he located the essence of despair. How he managed to harness the power and make it his is unknown.
Using his new power, despair slowly crept into the fresh world. The Ill Omen was careful at first, only slowly influencing the children. It was not until the children started to perish did he discover the true merit of his new abilities: the souls. The souls of these children came to him, filling him with power, but quickly faded.
Cunning as always he put forth his brilliance to learn how to gather this new strength and keep it. The Dark Baron's research led him to a small pocket plane where he could entrap the souls. Learning then that to keep them forever in torment and pain gave him an unending supply of divine might.
As the Ill Omen's power grew, so did his greed. His influence spread faster and the secret of his actions could no longer be hidden. He would soon be discovered. Many of the Ancients banded together and decided to imprison Beroxxus for all of eternity. Trapped in a statue, the world forgot the Dark Baron. It was not until the human woman known as Azuranda that Beroxxus would find freedom once again. Now once again released upon Thera, the Lord of Despair makes his presence known.

Now I really regret deleting...it would've been really really cool to fight alongside you as a tiger.
Destim was very cool. Our brief interactions, especially that long bickering back and forth, was funny as hell. Didn't know that you were in Outlander though

...to avoid being known as an outlander. I wouldn't use my powers while ranking, I wouldn't sac accidentally given coins until my teammates were asleep. Stuff like that.
Unfortunately, two retrievals on scion and one retrieval on tribunal later and most of the hero range knew I was outlander. Dammit. Word spreads too fast. Hiss.

I dont get to play Krugan as much as I would like but when I do I catch glimpses of other characters lives. I liked what I saw of Destim alot. You were the type of player I was hoping would be on when I came on. It is easy to just log on and attack things, but it is much harder to develop some form of persona to go with it. Thanks for what interactions we had. I wish you luck with your next.

I'm glad you enjoyed the conversations as much as I did, for me it was as much about figuring out what made Destim tick as it was trying to convince him to reject being evil.

Always felt you were very well "versed" in Thera. Few times was around, enjoyed what I saw... glad I could help you get the obelisk... hope you kept that promise to me in repayment ...
Yeah.. rp wise.. I felt what I asked you to do, was much better then asking you to go help me get any kind of equipment...
good luck with next bro...

Thanks for the help you gave me. Ironically, most neutral outlanders Destim was fine with, as long as they didn't get in his way. He just wanted to kill his closest allies. I think Nam was an excellent character, and I hope you keep up what your doing. I also had some vague idea to turn you against Jayundar, but again, never really had the time to put it into play.

How could you want to kill someone that torched, tortured, and taunted you like I did?
I liked you a lot. I knew there was a lot of "shadowy" activity done by you that was going to get you in trouble, and I could feel you being pulled away to Rayihn. I had a plan to counter it, but now I'll never get to try
Jayundar
PS, those quests are FUNdamental. Everyone should know them!

I loved Destim. I had the perfect plan for our next RP too. It was devious, trust me, but I think you would have had a lot of fun with it!!
Rayihn@carrionfields.com is correct. It forwards to my actual email, so you'll get a response from that. I'll look forward to hearing from you. I'm really sad that you deleted, honestly.
I really hope you play another Rayihn follower. You were definetly one of my favorites so far. I loved the role, and I think you were a little surprised when I turned it around on you.

#72541, "Commentary on forms of interest:"
In response to Reply #1

Jaguar - Was really disappointed when I got this one. Its primary asset, the ability to camo, was not exactly useful to me, since EVERY FORM I HAVE can camo, due to my being an outlander. Averages 4 mangle-demos a round, decent dodging ability, bite causes bleeding. Ambush is supposed to be good, but its merely a mediocre skill. Very rarely will you be in a situation where you'll want the one round of lag before the ambush hits. You are often better off typing murder for three normal attacks - three demos versus one unblockable annihilate. Ambush is a little better, but often the lag on camo isn't worth it. I'd take an extra round or two of surprise anyday.
Caiman - The awesomest second-tier form ever. Regeneration, damage reduction, scaly hide. Two attacks or so per round, goes from dismember-massacre each hit. Can't dodge any attacks for crap, but the ability to regenerate and the chance to deflect trip or whatever if you are attacked while ranking is invaluable. I was using this form instead of the snow badger. Heck, I was tanking with this form up to level 43 or so. Kind of overpowered, I think, but on the other hand, water shifters need the love. Water primaries are going to be ranking alone a lot, I think. Far superior to the jackal. Only issue? Its kind of slow off water.
Giant Lobster - Well, I was disappointed. At first glance it isn't half-bad. Damage reduction. Amphibious. Shell which can bounce melee skills. Pincer! Holy crap sir, pincer! Averages two demos a round, maybe three. I found it a better explorer form than a pk form. It is godawful slow on land, even though its amphibious. Jaguar has bigger damage output and is harder to defend against. Its significantly less defensive on land. Best when used with ganking.
Most of the time in one on one fights you are fighting with the offensive form and abs, hoping to overwhelm them with damage before switching to the less damaging lobster form and pincering to stop the flee. Catching them after they have fled requires a different form, the lobster movement lag is too nasty on land. I tried to avoid using it in fights, so the shapeshift pinch combo at the last second would come as a surprise and hopefully end the guy. I would stay as a jaguar unless I was certain that a pinch would make the difference.
Still, though, it really wasn't too much of a threat unless there was a ganksquad with it. I can't see anyone dying to a solo lobster. Sure, if he made a bunch of mistakes and overspammed bash or something that might happen, but in that situation he died more to his own mistakes, not to any particular skillful move on the lobster's part. Maybe a villager fighting a/b/sed lobster on water or something.
