Re: Beneath a Black Flag -- Veras Edrix

"Would Valkur's challenge be any less right, if he had failed?" Like phantoms on the midnight sea, the words floated in the back of his mind as another shot of burning liquid was poured back. The familiar taste of a bitter ritual served only to help him dull his senses and linger in the memories. M...

Re: Performance of Floraine Espivant + Moira Orseeva

Very cool, well executed, and a little something outside the norm as far as hero/villain showdowns go. Kudos for doing something that we'll have fun talking about IC for a while!

Re: True Sight, Cornersneaking, and Amplify

what we do have are IC PvP arena results I think this is something I see people often bring up in balance discussions and it has always kind of bothered me. There's a lot of times where the entire metric for balance appears to be taken from arena fights limited to 1 small area, with the rulesets co...

Re: Tashtego is Gone

Farewell to a real one! Tashtego was great -- he had a presence and personal gravitas that made you interested in what he had to say any time he spoke. It was a character with real purpose and direction, as well as very human doubts and uncertainties. He really improved any scene he was a part of, a...

Re: Eldritch Focus

Pilgrimages come to mind. This seems like a really cool idea. It would be neat if maybe there was a thematic and high-effort IG way to bypass the class restrictions on certain items. Like going to some distant and hard to reach location that vibes with the object being made (for the example of the ...

Yeah I'm generally never thrilled with class-locked crafts in general but warlock gets hit twice. There's also plenty more classes to add to that list above --hemomancer, elementalist, sorc, and wizard all have a staff (dagger for hemo, but same thing) that anyone can make. Also any RP this has ever...

Re: Anarchic Razor VFX

I don't hate the lightning and think it'd be cool as a spell fx or on another weapon, but I do think for [CYRIC SWORD] the original was way more fitting and made it a nice unique weapon where the new one is just a 3rd color of electricity now on weapons.

Re: Last Sail & Kudos of Maríangel de la Toledino

They were two wildly different perspectives into the character and both of them were excellent. Mariangel was the type of force ingame that not only...

Re: Pentunia is shelving-Kudos

Pentunia was such a great character and one of the most authentic halflings I've ever seen played. I loved my interactions with her on Sarek and often felt like her presence on the ship was something the whole crew could always easily play off of. Out of everyone there, he'd immediately singled her ...
