Thank you, Nycruvae, for all the strange and messy RP we shared, and for your patience and time throughout. I know I struggled to fully grasp the heart of your religion, even if it may seem simple to others.

Apologies as well to Sumae, the Scions, and all allies. And to Destuvius who was absolutely right to remove Fereshti from the cabal, as having alts is clearly not allowed. Believe it or not, I truly didn’t realize that, until he explained it to me.

They seem to find you no matter where you go, chase you down wherever you flee, and won’t back off until they’ve secured the kill. They don’t lock you down like a batadin, warrior, or muter or etc. Most of the time, they rely on maledictions and just try to stop you from healing through them.

Or maybe I’ve misunderstood, and your issue with Fereshti is something else entirely?

Was that thing about the oath not being possible on Divine legit to avoid getting killed by imperials, to change their ethos, because wow that was so weird. If I were you and Nyc had told me 'no, I can't make you lawful' I would have just deleted - and I assumed that was what this deletion was about, lol

I knew from the start that a neutral shaman couldn’t take the oath, and I never planned to join the Empire.
The peace between Fereshti and the Empire was part of a role idea that was still developing when I deleted her.
At the time, there weren’t many Imperials around, but when their numbers grew in my (PK) list, I started to regret choosing the Empire for that storyline since it limited who I could hunt. Fereshti was on the path to joining the Scions and did succeed, but I had overlooked a few important details about the cabal. That mistake led to her removal, and ultimately, my decision to delete.

Thanks for the feedback.

But I don't really get the problem here. Why is it right for people to logout as soon as I login, but not for me to logout when I see no prey?
That being said, I myself, never logout as soon as I see someone who plays exactly like Fereshti. (someone who plays just to PK)

In addition to that, Did I multi-kill, multi-loot or anything? Other than PK? And even in PK, I never gone full prep (And I always had all the preps) to give a chance to my target to win! (Atleast in my own idea)

Good news for you and other lowbies who have been PKed by Fereshti is, this style, as much as I had fun doing it, is not my style and I am not sure if I do so anytime soon again.

This is a game for me, and I aim to have fun in it. At the same time, it means that I should respect and consider others having fun too. Being PKed is not fun at all, but it is the key part of a PK mud. It is hard to walk a balance path here. But having your feedbacks is nice and can help a lot. so Thanks again!

Are the same ones who log in/out when they see you online and send you ooc tells when you finally catch them. Just ignore. Logging in/out within a minute is pretty lame regardless of the reason. Consequences for a consistent pattern of this would be pretty cool.

I get what you’re saying.
But it’s clear that, right or wrong, Fereshti has affected the fun for others. I’d like to dig into that a bit more and see how I can make things better for myself and the people I play with going forward.
Not sure if it will be possible at all, though.

I definitely agree with you about having consequences for a consistent pattern of logging in and out within a minute. But I also think there should be some kind of consequence for people who log out the moment you log in your character, or right as you find and engage them. That kind of behavior really kills the flow and fairness of the game too.

For me, whether this char was a griefer will depend on whether or not they had a role. If they have a role, fine - be that way. If they do not have a role, then yeah it's an entirely griefy "throw-away" char.

So wouldn’t that mean you’d assume it’s just a “griefy throw-away” character by default?
I’ve never been great at RPing, honestly. And it gets even harder when it feels like others just ignore or dismiss you from the start.

To clarify - I did not think you were a griefer and I enjoyed interacting with you. I did see you login and if there was no one to kill, log out. But that's not against the rules and it's a playstyle that works for some. So no judgment here. My point is - POST MORTEM - it would all depend on whether you had a role. Your playstyle + no role = big meh. If you had a role (which I hope you did, you were a Nec follower), then it was a fun (from the sidelines) character to watch.

Enjoy the PBF. And if it's role-less, shame on you!

I’ve never been great at roleplaying, but I truly believe I put in more effort this time around.
