Loooong overdue much deserved Kudos
Posted: Thu Oct 26, 2017 1:11 pm
I very rarely post in this thread aside from replies, and there's some long overdue Kudos to give out to the prominent players who I've had the absolute pleasure of interacting with over the years.
Top of my list GearsOfMadness, you brought me into the Roleplaying scene and made me fall in love with a game that offered a challenge and an escape for me, I knew this player as a DM on another server, where the playerbase was much smaller but tight knit, thankfully I made all of my RP blunders there before he introduced me to arelith, and looked like less the fool in front of the crowd because if this player's understanding and guidance. His characters were always well thought and far deeper than you might ever find even through constant Roleplaying sessions with him, forever a mystery to unravel
Kregorranger gets a second mention, simply due to his patience in dealing with my first character to pass level 5, despite her horrifically tragic life and very boring attitude, as well as the absolute aversion of leaving the level 3 area of the bramble forest, his patience saw this charactrr through to level 16 from killing "almost" nothing but badgers and goblins, and he was never too busy to spend a few hours to an entire night just roleplaying around a campfire.
Flameborn, our tragic name similarity had me convinced for a time you were stalking me, our first few interactions had me believing you were just a mean player, but as time went on you were the one to get me to open up and expose my play style to as many people as would take notice, always pushing me to better my roleplay, and teaching me how to make a character whi could hold her own "kinda" in a fight, you were always willing to go out of your way to include me in roleplay and immerse me as a player into the world of arelith.
BlackWendigo, I think we've had one pair of characters that got along, all other combinations had us arguing, and killing each other, often your pocket got picked, but it was always fun every conflict I've taken part in with you has always been good natured on the player side and that's a worringly rare trait I've noticed, Kudos to you for understanding that this is a game and to get too invested in it is unhealthy
The OG gnolls
I dont remember most of your player names BUT I do remember the amount of tolerance you all showed when I rolled up my first monster, knowing absolutely nothing about the roleplay of a gnoll and more or less declaring my level 3 ruler if Newhome, complete with a last name I hadn't earned. You all were so helpful in teaching me what it meant to play a true abomination without sacrificing the integrity of the player behind it, how to be evil and considerate all at once. It's simply a task not many people are up to but you guys did a super job showing me the ropes.
To the new monsters, I played with you as the Sventari cult, and some of you as now the Deftpaw pack, the amount of personality in everyone's character is staggering, and I can't get enough. Keep doing you!
I plan to add to this list when I'm not falling asleep and forgetting things, but as I'm falling asleep and forgetting things there's a good chance I'll wake up and not remember this thread, there are so many people I'd love to give Kudos to but those of you who deserve to be on my list here already know who they are.

). It was Deathpaw that HATED Knah' and Gnarra. Don't think he got along with Koona either. Deathpaw adored and deeply respect Khan'arr and liked Skar (she was everything he was not). So IDK . It was never about the fact that they were your chars, only that well miy gnolls tend to have an attitude
