Andunor's changed a lot in the last few weeks. While it is a somewhat quieter place in the streets -- there's been a lot of bright, new and exciting faces in Andunor. Some oldbies, with new masks. Some old characters with new twists -- but we also have a lot of new faces I'd like to recognize~
A lot of you that may not think you're important characters: are important to me.
Note: NO I'M NOT ROLLING! >D
H.M. Rufus: Though I barely knew ye-- I've heard about you more often in death than I ever did in life. You and I have known eachother OOCly for many years, and your mastery of roleplaying has always been something I've admired from a distance. Though you may kick yourself over rolling ... damn you created a lot of funny RP, before and after doing so by doing so. <3
Sargoth, The Mindflayer: If I didn't spell it right? Sorry. You have some hard times ahead of you... but-- god-damn, you made the right choice for a 5%. That is probably the most creative use of a 5% I've seen since coming to Arelith. I love it, and I thank-you for doing it. I hope we can find a way to work our RP's together into something... Andunor can be rough around the edges. I don't know how familiar you are with Andunor or not-- but if you're a new player in the town, let me know and I'll do my best to help you out with info~ You're probably an oldbie though.
Welcome to Andunor though! I wanna see some people (surfacers? 
) get mind-controlled. I hope you can find a way to hook up with the Bone Witch in a way that ... isn't a lab experiment. I consider her the same kinda creepy as a Mindflayer -- and I just think you guys would get along famously if you could find common ... science-experiments.Alyza Firemane: While I recognize your character's been through some hard-times lately? It means a lot to me that your character -- an interesting character -- has stuck around. And I am certain your devotion to your character, and soldiering on will be rewarding for you. You're by far my favorite gnoll so far~ Zalazee (I can't pronounce her name) was my second... but I really want to be able to get into some RP's with you. You and I have talked a lot.
Delano Bellafonte & Natasha Blackhaven: While our characters have certainly, vigorously disagreed on occasion and I'm not quite certain that our characters are done disagreeing (and we've also had occasion to disagree OOC) ... I also know that I'd probably hate Andunor without you guys. Being leaders is ridiculously hard ... and knowing the things I know about your character's early start, and the things we've talked about OOC... but knowing these things about your past makes me respect you more than ever before and I hope we can have some common creative efforts in the near future. I know there's been some damage done -- but I want to bridge that gap someday, and I continue to stare across the divide at you guys.
Sledge, Grimgold & The New Duergar clan: Anundor isn't Andunor without having a buncha drunken, smithin', cussin', Duergar around. I haven't felt right since Bognar and the Dwarfsmasher's departed -- and seeing you guys, and talking to your characters? Makes me feel at home in Andunor. I swear, someday I'm going to have to make a Duergar or Dwarf, my characters online always seem to get along famously with them.
Our Three Councilors of The Devil's Table: Idil'vas, Invrae and Scylla. You guys have a hard job. Not one I envy. I don't think a better combination could have come up given who was available, and the hard-times the Drow have gone through in the last few generations ... You guys are some of my favorite RPers, even if you don't know it -- and I'm there to help support and move the plots along. You need anything for events, you let me know and I'll do my best to help make them a reality. Saslae will be on the side of "The Electorate". Lolth Tlu Malla!
Zed'Tarin and Sarthuk Irontower: Orc-blood Dad... thank-you for showing so much love to the community. I know you aren't the only Orc-blood elder, but you're the one I know best, and I know that being a leader is incredibly hard. And Sarkuth? God-damnit Sarkuth. One of the best supporting cast I know, and one of the people I am trying to model a lot of my RP after these days. I love spending my time around you -- and it makes me sad a lot of our RP has moved in separate directions these days. I think you're probably my favorite person to RP around in Andunor.
Xalyth & Klavdiya: The character development you guys are having is something I enjoy watching -- even if I don't think you see much of eachother; I watch your RP in much the same way. Klavdiya, I'd like to see get out, and get more friends, and be pro-active... but I'm not sure it's in the cards for the character arch-type you've chosen... so? I'm just going to keep doing what I do... and feeding new situations to your character to make her uncomfortable. Xalyth... I think people like your character a lot more than you might suspect. I expect good things in your character's near future.
Lucatiel: The enigmatic, independent, frustrating but absolutely amazingly fun character to play with. While Saslae may be pissed at her ... and showing it off in her particular fashion ... I've very much enjoyed every RP I've had with your character, and Saslae's views are not my own. <3
Gnash and Blax: I hope you guys are in for the long-hall. Your characters intrigue me... and while I kind of enjoy provoking Gnash's dizziness at the size of the world... I really want to know more about his past, his culture and things he came from, and those have been some of my favorite RP's. Blax-- god-damnit. We're going to RP more. Glad your RP hooked up with Josephine's. She's a good egg.
Vance Gravelle: Probably one of the most selfless and most communicative players I've ever had the honor of playing with. You spend so much time trying to help other people's stories that I wonder sometimes, what you the player want most... and maybe? Maybe it's just really for everyone else to enjoy themselves ... Your character's a monster. A well-dressed, immaculate monster with fabulous hair... You've done so much to mediate a lot of disputes people, in general, have had... you've calmed me down in situations where even I've been incredibly upset and offered me so many good pieces of advice that I've passed on to other people since that... I don't really know where my RP would be if I hadn't met your character through Tornius. You do so much behind the scenes to make other people's play experiences better ... your conduct in Arelith and Andunor is something I aspire to, and I hope, someday, that I can provide others with story the way you do.
Perunika: Always a controversial figure. Always there starting stuff, but never there to finish it. I'm interested in seeing what you can do in the long-term, but... we'll see how long you stick around. I'd like to be able to work with you more toward future story-arcs.
Sydney Harrow: While not ... exactly an Andunorite? I don't know where I'd be right now without a life-line you threw me, when like.. 75% of the people I RPed with suddenly rolled or went on hiatus in the short period I've been on the server ... but you may never know how much the RP I had with you meant to me at the time. You complicate my character's life in a way that I can't help but laugh at -- but I wouldn't trade it for Ievos Selorn's Greatsword... and I appreciate the outside dynamic your character brought to mine that gets her OUT OF ANDUNOR once in awhile, and to the other parts of Arelith I wouldn't get to participate in otherwise. You're another one of those pillars of Arelith I'm happy I've been able to play with so often, and I aspire to follow in your footsteps. Your RP is a heavier influence on mine than you may know.
Muk Three-Fingers: One of the people who I brought to the server; and the one who's stayed closest to me (whereas everyone else I brought primarily rolled surface and has been having a blast) ... I love your character. I have a blast just chatting with him, and mauling things with him ... and I really want to start killing high end dungeons with you. I am glad I read you correctly-- I knew that Arelith would be right up your ally, and just about everything you were looking for in an RP community. (Or as close to it as we can get. <3)
Sol'vyr, Helen Lustar and The Arcanum: Holy Hell people! You guys went full fraternity/cultist on me. I have to figure out how to wiggle Saslae in there for a bit of RP; but her being.. distinctly anti-magical... is something I'm trying to focus on. Bringing me in to do some art-work though was something I really enjoyed -- even if I almost got eatten by flesh-eatting slime, scorched, shredded by gargoyles, and so-on. > . > From all the talk though ... and all the effort... I'm.. really in awe of what you guys do.
DM Wish: An ENTERTAINING peace in Andunor. I don't think I had ever heard of or seen so many DM events in the UD... and heard the UD had been starved for them for awhile. I'm interested in a lot of these story-arcs, and? Want to see how they affect the city in the long-term. I'm going to do my best to try to spring-board off some of these things and keep the PvP down -- but ... Andunor will Andunor no matter how much I try to talk it out of it sometimes. >D
Ashe and Skaarkec: You guys are a blast. And I love a good dungeon-team. Fun kobolds, with creative backgrounds and a long-term connection to eachother ... Seriously though Ashe -- if she had actually had Pure Zardizik? She might have had Saslae's neck in a clamp. :Cackles: Ten years sound good?
Pea: God-damnit Pea, I miss you. Stop being a stranger. I still have Pea's picture of Saslae fighting a dragon. AND HE'S GOT A GF... omg. Pea is growing up. ; . ;
To those I've RPed with, but didn't name: I either didn't remember your name's spelling -- even though I may actively RP with you every day (Drak, Eiliana) ... or I'm still trying to get a good impression of what your character wants, and needs long-term (Laila, Ghost, Mailia!). There are so many great players running around right now it's hard to keep many of them straight, and acknowledging everyone is impossible -- but and Andunor is stronger than it's been for ALL of your efforts, mentioned by name or not, and I love so many of you guys.
