Lord Mayhem, is quite hot-headed....

If Rynn were to give some choice words on Kas, those would be the least of them.

And don't even get Hireshmont started.

He got quite a history with the closing days of the Republic of Terran so I hear.

Yeah the whole secretly worshipping daimons, spying for Aurvandil, going crazy ruining the realm, and then laying the groundwork for Terran's collapse... he made a few enemies.

Kas was handed the Chief Magistrate's role by Hireshmont on a silver platter, with high hopes. He was given more autonomy than Hireshmont gave most Chief Magistrates. And for a few weeks he was really great. Then he went crazy, switched sides to save his own skin, and betrayed the realm.

What was odd is that he could have avoided all of that... Kas attacking a Daimon unit in Overroot was the initial point of conflict and everyone was just like "WTF Kas are you trying to do?!" (this was in the midst of Asylon's invasion as well) and instead of just saying "sorry I screwed up forgive me" he went crazy and accused every major figure in Terran of corruption and even went on the Dwilight rulers list to bad mouth all of the Terran Dukes. It was an insane like... 2 days.

End in the end it was catalyst for the Fall of Terran. Pretty cool destruction though. Better than a lot of realms who end just petering out one day.

If it makes anything clear, the first description of you was given by Kas.  So that influenced my first reaction.

What I find ironic is his class is Diplomat.

Having Kas in Niselur does more damage to Niselur than almost anything else. The man is reviled everywhere that he is known.

I found him interesting too, until I realized he had more fun tearing down what others did than building new things. He did a real wonder on Terran, and now he's working on SA.

Allison was chaotic, but still actually cared about building things and investing in things. Kas doesn't. I can't speak for the player of course, but the character at least just isn't really fun for me.

Niselur's first diplomatic message to Kale as the Grand Prince of a new realm was Kas taunting and mocking Kale.

I have no idea why Leopold tolerates him as an Ambassador of all things.

But represents Leopold poorly.

Niselur doesn't seem to have much to lose by being confrontational. Either they get attacked, and by all odds get a grand coalition on their side. Sure, their allies may suffer a bit, but Niselur's pretty remote and safe, they can only really expand. Otherwise, they don't get attacked, and prove to everyone just how far they can go without any repercussions (or even with appeasements!). They really have no reason to play nice.

Kas has a lot of enemies on the forum, who slander him and stuff. But in game he's a good character, active, and polite to those who deserve it.
