Everyone who persists with a controversial character!

Post by Nevrus » Tue Feb 04, 2020 4:26 am

I feel for a lot of you who don't have much opportunity to meaningfully roleplay with people other than being shunned off. Your tenacity in not just quitting is admirable.

I post this because I saw poor Nym had an encounter earlier and I felt bad for him.

Join in with characters you appreciate even if your character and everyone else hates their guts!

This seems like one of those posts motivated by something that should have been in a report instead.

Issue was reported though it's part of a larger problem that has nothing to do with the involved parties and that needs to be openly discussed. The culture of burying these incidents behind PMs is part of what allows them to continue.

So essentially, this is a double-edged kudos thread and should be locked.

Sounds actually like a kindhearted and sympathetic player feeling bad for fellow player to me.

Wotan will always be the voice of common sense and truth. Wotan did nothing wrong... but he is lonely.
Kudos for all characters who dare to step out from the mold, not bending the knee nor turning the cheek.
Trying to bring new things and changes with fresh air as well RP. Keep on the fight!

Wotan's stodgy but the island wouldn't be the same without him! I've enjoyed all my interactions with him, even when I've been on the wrong side of his ire.

I'll be locking this thread. In the future please use the forums for constructive discussions. If you believe there is/has been a breach of rules, then I encourage you to please submit a report via the forums so that the DM team may be addressed.

As well, understand that conflict is a part of roleplay, but should not be the only portion to it. Alongside that, that we do expect appropriate characteristizations of lore to be upheld alongside the monstrous race policies. If you have further questions feel free to PM me.
