So... I was Voralia.

I'm going to keep this very brief.

So, I had quit CF... Then I heard about the role-contest challenge and it drew me back ASAP. I sent an email to Amaranthe saying that I wished to participate, I rated myself pretty high in both terms of RP and PKing. I was however reluctant to play an empowerment class since I haven't played one since I played Deiha (Scion Lyristeon healer.) And before that it was Amberion in 99 or something.

Anyway! A HUGE thank you to Amaranthe!

Everyone else, please do post, and I'll reply.

I really enjoyed it at first, but I quickly went stale... Goodies doesn't seem to be my cup of tea anymore, the RP just felt... Forced, even though I tried real hard for the first 150-200 hours. The last 100 hours I dedicated to ST 100% off, only the last few hours I went back to PKing, but I never found the RP grove again after the first 150 hours.

1: Paladins... Oooh man is it hard to seal the deal!
2: Goodie RP... *sigh* not for me!
3: Fortress... It is what it is...
4: Rewards! This one is hilarious! I got SO many tells of people refusing to fight me because I was "over rewarded".

So, I'm going to end this with the following: Which rewards do all of you think that I got? (I got 4 rewards that were out of the ordinare.)
And how much imm-xp do you all think that I got?

I'm very curious to what you all think!


Anyway, you know it's time to delete when you see this:

Yeah, I think that's most of them. No real order in whom I played when.

Seriously! I had thousands of gold, which I donated 80% of to NPCs and a good bit to players in need.

So, a Paladin can't carry around gold to heal, buy preps, give gold to cabal mates so that they can heal in combat etc?

The comments about ignore I agree 100% with, no good excuse for that really save for me being easily irritated at the time due to RL issues, so didn't want to risk going ooc.

I might have overdid the paladin's code, not really sure, but I never had more than 20 gold as a paladin. I'm not saying I was right, I'm not really sure where the line is to be honest.

... was from ST, and I was 100% sure at the time that it was needed for something within the tower, I was wrong and I got rid of it. (Took me what? 3 weeks?)

I enjoyed Voralia pretty much the whole time, but I obviously wasn't seeing you from the 'other' side of things, so the RP I saw was pretty consistent. Your interactions with various level of Fortress members were solid, and I liked how you helped lowbie/newbies.

That said, it was quite obvious towards the end of your life that you had seemingly no interest in Fortress/Thera stuff, and only going straight to ST for your entire login. Sort of negates any reason to be in Fortress if you aren't going to, you know, actually do anything Fort related.

On that sour note, I will reiterate that I did enjoy Voralia a lot. Always was happy to see you online when I'd login, and I knew IF you weren't in ST, we would be fairly strong together.

I want to stress I really enjoyed our interactions and thought your character was a lot of fun to be around, and people seemed to RP a little bit more when you were around (at least goodies did).

You got some great RP and yes, the two of us sure packed a punch. I just wish I had "felt" Voralia more.

My thoughts from our early fights was stock paladin with a HUGE target but not afraid to mix it up (if not necessarily eager at times, but you were an acolyte so not to be expected) and a good presence for Fort at that time.

... Voralia was a bit stock. Had big problems "feeling" her.

Anyway, loved fighting with you.

My only complaint is that we did not get to interact more.
I wish you well. Good luck with your next.

I really loved interacting with you! It's a real shame that I don't get to participate anymore in your "storyline". I'm SO curious on your role though!

Loved playing with you with my last character when you were Arrna but did not have any interactions with Voralia, sadly. Vi ses senare!

I meant we did not have -many- interactions as opposed to any.

Are you still playing CF? I hope I get back into the game again some day.

Yes I am playing Amatrysti

Seriously, the way you played it really caught my imagination.

What's more likely, reborn Voralia as a Joan of Arc or Voralia as the grumpy old woman she was for decades before she died?

I find it cool my character caught you on both ends. Gembu was a low level nemesis of Yuolud -- we ran around Galadon for hours. And Voralia was a major pillar for Fort.

Your RP was a good mix of generous, maganimous even, focused completely on spreading hope and revealing the Light, and an impatient, no-nonsense intolerance that I think characterized the Prophetess really well. Epic people seldom rescue kittens stuck up a tree without being snarky, despite what Superman does in the movies.

You were completely awesome. Yes, you needed gold for preps, but you never hesitated handing out 200 to a 1000 gold like candy to characters who needed it. Really well done. I enjoyed every moment with this character, and you kicked some ass too. You never hesitated to charge to the rescue, to fight when you were needed, or offer help or advice.

I do have to say: if you were going to insist on Defiance, you could have led us a bit better I'd done it before with this character, but was hazy on memory. But again, this was consistent of your portrait of an impatient, cantankerous Voralia.

I picked up your PBF as soon as I saw the deletion. Not sure if someone else got there first.

Thank you, I was trying for that. Yeah, me and defiance... Well, for quite some time I got quite hooked up on that, spent too much time getting it. (And failing.)

Keep up the great work!

Loved you both as Valanthiriel and Samaiya( the paladin you had wanting to take up a darker path). Probably some of the best RP sessions I've had. As Valanthiriel I always felt threatened by you and your vast game knowledge, yet always tried to compensate as I could. Even when appointed leader I asked if they where sure you where not the best choice. I'm happy you switched things up. And rather saddened knowing that we were on the same side but I didn't get to spend as much time with you and learn whatever you were willing to teach. See you back in the fields soon? Just graduated boot camp for the navy so I'm coming back from a hiatus myself.

I miss Valan sometimes. I hope you are well.

I envied your RP! I just never "felt" Voralia as I've done most chars and yours I really "felt", your RP was flawless and I loved hanging around with you, made me "feel" Voralia a bit more, thus stepping up my RP.

I enjoyed the interactions we had, as limited as they were. Good luck with your next.

You had an interesting story and great RP, a shame I had so little hours to put in the past months. Keep it up!
