I remember when she was new in Guldorand. I wish I had roleplayed more with her. I say this way to often...Is she truly dead now? What a loss for Guldorand!

LurkingShadow

I remember the first time Sil met Salah. She was always so annoyed, so hateful and distrusting of him. But he never stopped talking to her really. As Sil has grown and changed, she started to see the person behind her prejudice and paranoia. Guldorand will lose a great individual in Salah! But also ...

I mean the main thing to remember is Andunor isn't like Menzobaranzan or Ched Nased or Grakeslough (or however you spell that) it's Skullport. A hodgepodge of races, both surface and underdark. That's very much the flavour that's being aimed at here. But the proper odd one is, a Human that been out...

The version of FR we're playing (3rd ed) has Monsters as pretty much entirely evil. There's a small amount of exceptions, but the majority of people know that Outcasts are (or are supposed to be) individuals who have commited or are at least accused of commiting crimes so awfully terrible that they...

LurkingShadow

playing surface outcasts is also frowned upon ooc and ic in my experienced, just slightly easier to get away with using clever disguises Much easier it is for sure. I see outcasts often just walking around. Andunor is not an Underdark-only race region. If you've got gold, power, or something of val...

LurkingShadow

As a decently new player, as of august last year. I do have a question as I dabbled a bit in the Underdark of late. Why is there so many Humans and other surface races down there as outcasts? But playing a surface Underdark race is frowned upon OOC and IC?

A late night in Guldorand, a light rain had erupted outside. The Sun Elf sat by her desk, in her study. Working on her alchemy and herbalism. Unlike other times, she felt a serenity, a calm. Content with the situation. A lot had been lost; a lot had been forgotten. But among the sorrows and doors cl...

The writ it is bound to also seems to be bugged since we got progress in 2 parts of it, in the same area. The first area giving no progress but the...

Arelith Digital archive you say? Ooo let's compare!!! I'd love to see yours!! I do not have one....yet, now you made me want to try and create one. But im so new to the server. The question is where to start, how to do this and if it should be in a IC or OOC shape. Just know if you go the OOC route...

Storing of history is one of my hobbies (and my education) even if its IC, it s important. Storing it oocly in an digital archive would also be very nice. That OOC timeline is golden.

Grief, regret, and misery. Poor choices and experiences are made through out life. Hundreds, thousands if not more. For an Elf with their decade upon decade long life, these accumulate. We learn from said mistakes, from said poor choices. But the cost at times, of such poor choices Is burning bridge...

One of my chars and Aunrae had a interesting connection that never got to fully develop but it was interesting. She was a unique and different Drow with a big heart. This char of mine still has a memory of her with them. Thanks for the RP! And a view into a different Underdark and Drow style of RP!

LurkingShadow

I'm not entirely sure how to quote you on my phone without snipping every quote Lurking. But I've enabled several opportunities for Surfacers to have their revenge despite limited numbers or levels Provided you are prepared to pay for it IG, I can accommodate things such as sending mercs and assass...

It is a deliberate imbalance between the Underdark and the Surface. The Surface thrives with bustling settlements, shared resources, and coexistence among diverse cultures. In contrast, the treacherous Underdark is infested with monsters and criminals, posing a threat to the Surface society. Surfac...

An letter never sent. It was a late night. Nothing but a few candles spread light in the living room of her abode. She had penned the letter over and over. Unsure how to formulate it. Unsure how to say the words she wanted to say, wanted to make known. Feelings and emotions put into words, written,...

PvP is at the core, not roleplaying or very interesting.

PvP again, is not a valid conflict in my opinion.

You might not like it, but this is wrong. PvP is just another tool available to be used when telling a story.

Can be, but often its just, action, PVP.

LurkingShadow

I like slavery in that it allows for a narrative advancement and consequence without having to kill a character. I'm pretty sure the surface could do this via sibayad? I'm not sure it's exclusive to the UD or that there is any rule against the surface taking a UD slave under the right conditions an...

LurkingShadow

I think the leadership players on both sides are actively seeking alternatives and resolutions. But there needs to be a narrative budge which is what I think prompted this post. In my opinion, the UD has made some very reasonable narrative offers that would curb the raiding. It would require surfac...

LurkingShadow

Elves, due to the actions for literal RL years by the Black Archers, are viewed with deep suspicion at best, and outright hostility at worst. Gnomes get a lot of negativity (but rarely outright hostility) from kobolds, as is setting appropriate. But… dwarves, half-orcs, humans, halflings? Most do n...

LurkingShadow

... you would be surprised how many surfacers we see in Andunor. Making absolute statements how "no-one" encourages anyone to walk into Andunor, are not helpful, nor are they accurate. Heck, when I have been wandering around on my kobold at different points and come across a surfacer, at least half...

LurkingShadow

You know what? Yes, the conflict is asymmetrical. The underdark can enslave people who choose to become slaves, and the surface cannot. But at the same time, underdarkers cannot just wander into surface cities and expect to be safe. Surfacers can walk into Andunor, say they're there for trade, and,...
