Disclaimer, I am wasted so I may forget a few people.

First and foremost.

Eshval, holy crap I loved every minute of this character strictly because of the endless possibility your religion gives. I did find myself one or two times lacking direction, but mindless pk found a way to fill that really quick. Sorry I deleted when I did; I had hoped to hold on, and as terribly egotistical as this sounds, be given vampire to play around with for a few deaths. But I figured it wasn't going to happen, so I ended up having to delete. I deleted because I felt like I was gear hoarding and that is a no no for sure (not having enough time to log on and when I did log on having to log off quickly because of the new born somewhat limited my ability to stay around). But I enjoyed this new religion easily as much as I did the old religion with Akscereh!

Don't think I interacted with too many other immortals, though I tried they would usually blow me off. Hell, most everyone would usually blow me off so I suppose I pulled off the relatively insane roleplay decently well enough. I enjoyed my enteractions with almost ever single person I spoke with, even those that got angry really quick and sent acidic replies, it was all worth it. I am not very good with replies and I have not kept a decent enough list going, I wish I had cause there are quit a few players I was amasingly impressed with and would like to give props too, but as I said before, I am retardedly drunk and need to go to bed, hurray taco bell. If anyone wants to give me a shout I will post a reply as soon as I can, And I may yet post a solid goodbye to everyone I can.

Thanks players, thanks Imms, Nep and valg, please don't hate me anymore cause Yoshimi.

There really wasn't much I could do to you, and I am not one of those rot and run players unless its a huge raid situation or the person I am rotting has been a #### to me. I really wanted to get something going with you but either you would lock out my supplications or I would just miss them on you, way tough.

Bummer. You were one of Hartazis very few allies and now you go delete on me! The quicksand / damnation combo was pretty killer and we made it work a few times I think.

Oh well. Good luck and see you on the fields when it's more appropriate!

Veressis really really enjoyed your company, though she hated most arials, their blood was way too thin But we were definately a tough ass combination, I really liked running with you and running with Rhyendris.

I said a lot of things already when Tiatan died, but I did get to interact with you some with my current character. I loved how your roleplay changed as you got more into the religion, and I always loved my interactions with you. I would say that I hope you find more time to play, but I'd rather you spend time with the baby. Those things are great, and they grow up way too fast (though watching that is kind of fun, too).

I felt so bad when you got killed by sekthan, I figured you would know to flee with at least a good bit of movement to walk out since you were plagued. I was definately impressed by the amount of improvement you made from when I first spoke and killed with you to the point near the end when you were about to age die. Well done!

If it was fun, I am being too nice. I haven't got my evilness worked out yet. I spent a good deal of time watching you, as I do with all who follow me, and the best part of you was that you rp'ed when no one was around to observed. Nice work.

Oh, you are definately evil (there were times I expected you to slink out of no where and bite me). But I knew exactly what I was in for when I decided to rock out a new eshvalite and couple that with the rare drow shaman (which is a freaking incredible combo if you stick with it) I knew I was in for some bumps and bruises. I have so many questions about the court and where its going and all that but I can't ask them here and I didn't really figure out a way to do it in character. I hope you enjoyed watching the ride from power seeking drow outcast to utterly insane priestess, I tried to make her sink a little more into insanity ever time I logged on.

Just for the record, Balim hated your guts because of the shawtaby thing in Ostalagia in the past. That said, I personally thought you were pretty damn gutsy coming after a bard that kept using his songs to his full advantage. Excellent character, even if I only had like... one fight, and 4 talks to go on.


Good luck on your next.

Yeah, I didn't really want to randomly attack you, but you two came for the shield I had killed that giant for and was in the midst of killing again. I just couldn't let that one go by unanswered, ya know? Good tough bard, couldn't seem to take you down.

I think your char might have been my all time favorite that i have ever interacted with. And in RP even though you were absolutely insane, Progglesnort loved you. It was always interesting when you were around, though i do hate shamans, because i have yet to be killed by a shaman in the first or second onslaughts. But you all just keep coming back, as i hope you do to the fields. Good luck on your next.

Easily one of my favorite tribunals I have ever interacted with, bar none. Always up for a fight and always just kept trucking even with bad odds and full loots and always just there to have fun. Keep it up man, you rock.

I saw you stalking me twice, once on the docks and once I don't remember where, galadon or Udgaard I think. All I know is you did have one attempt! And I wanted to let you have another but I wasn't going to let you stalk forever... you heard my yell right? I always wanted to catch you in galadon and fog you out, but never did get that, any time I could catch you it always seemed you had a healer or something and assassins are tough enough on their own.

Yes, I heard you yell. Something else called me away I believe. And I would have missed on my attempt anyway.
I knew I was not going to get you in Hamsah atleast.
I dont know. I was stalking you all over the place.
I missed my first attempt on you because I was not very good at stalking...
Now that I am better it (or atleast a little better), I was hoping to actually get you once by either trance or assasinate.

You were very interesting while I was alive. We had some good battles.

Sounds like you kept the RP up all the time. I hope you had fun with it.
Too bad, I was going to roll up another invoker to beat you up a little bit more. ^_^
I was really starting to like that invoker.
See you in the fields.

You always put up a vicious fight, man I hate ice needles, you and Tumarellen and your damn ice needles! I always wanted to try to catch you on a retrieval in your own quicksand by dispelling your earth shield but I never had the opertunity. Tough invoker!

He he, I love iceneedles! By far one of my favorite spells against certain classes.
I was only tough to classes that couldnt put out massive amounts of damage quickly, unless I had some extra protections.

lmfao, just for future reference, it is ooze shield that protects against quicksand...
I've made that mistake before...(against a villager actually it was not a good prize)
I'm sure he was laughing his ass off when he saw me fall in my own quicksand.

At least, not alone, I don't think.

I'm sad I never had the free time or presence of mind to take you up on that "dance". I was looking forward to it, you being my polar opposite, and me being decently confident against shamans, at least until the second dispel gets everything off me.

Good luck with everything, especially with the next.

Heh, I, a gentlemanly paladin, one of my favorite characters to interact with as an sophisticated evil. It would have been utterly pointless for me to fight you at length I am sure, I would have been in the same boat as with my fights vs Nilian. I could do absolutely nothing and he would end up just cutting me off from my empowerment. Icky. But yeah, I enjoyed our talks and wish we would have gotten that fight. I wasn't joking when I said you need to teach Enarn some manners, but thats a whole nother story and I won't go into it with him being active. You are a kickass paladin, keep your head up.

It would probably help if you weren't #### talking us at every opportunity.

On another note, did you ever get a chance to use Spider's Grace?

I'm still bitter, what can I say.. Truce? I stop if you stop? (which is prolly wise for me since you are the boss man of the game and all )

As for spiders grace, I used it ALL the time, I don't know if it was a certain cloak from HTOS or spider's grace, but I noticed myself actually dodging in fights a decent amount, not sure if I parried or shield blocked any more or not. But spider's grace is way awsome and I definately wish I would have had it when I first heroed . It didn't put me on the level of a mongoose or anything crazy like that, but it pushed me up from about a giant sword specs defense to about a duergar sword specs defense. Hell, I killed the blademaster and the invisible stalker, shadar lunn solo (a good couple breaks to rest during the fights). Hope that helps Oh, and I never noticed it do anything with the amount of times I was poisoned.

Question is, how were you using it? Basically, it does a lot more for you in combination with aristaeia than it does with fervor. With just fervor up it *will* help your poison saves, but those are typically hard saves for a dark-elf shaman to make to begin with.

I hardly ever ever ever used Aristaeia unless I was absolutely caught in the fight (entwined and cursed). So basically I never ever used it accept once on a mob I was fighting for a sword, and didn't have the edge then so didn't notice anything. So I guess I was definately using it wrong, but I definately noticed a bit of defensive peek when using it with just fervor up.

I wouldn't say you were using it wrong. There's some downside to fervor, so the edge gives you some upside. There's a lot more downside to aristaeia, and the edge gives you more upside.

Arist'ing yourself, despite its huge normal benefits, is always a big risk. I wouldn't expect a d-elf sha with this edge to run around arist'ed all the time, unless they were Shamanman shooting for a new con death speed record.
