Title: What's an assassin to do?
Post by: Eirikr on October 24, 2012, 07:13:11 AM
So, I've got a problem. My character on Beluaterra is an infiltrator, but pretty much everyone's still an ally at this point. Nobody really seems to want to fight just yet. Who am I to stab?

Now, I know someone will probably tell me just to suck it up and stab some random person (allied or not), but are we really all so chummy still that I've got so long to wait for a war?

While that's almost exactly the opposite of what I want to do, you have given me a good idea. Thanks!

I'm sure there are bounties out there in realms your character isn't allied to (or that are sufficiently far away).

Oh, no need... The idea was spurred by your post, but in no way is it the same.

Until recently, there was only one. :(

Ahem...There is a newish religion in Riombara that would be happy to have an infiltrator in the fold, and could certainly come up with tasks for such a skilled individual.

Since I'm a big proponent of the forums being OOC knowledge, send me an in-game offer after you see Kuvio's "resume."

I hope I don't disappoint, that would be pretty sad with all this unintentional hype. :P

That is bad advice for an infiltrator to give.

Next time try "Close your eyes and count too ten"

Meh, infils need notoriety. Gets them business. That's why I try to write all my infil's victims a letter when I stab them.

Granted, it doesn't always work in your favour, had my infil banned from an entire island but one or two realms because of it not so long ago. :P

Dear Sir Kepler,

Perhaps you are having this letter read to you while in recovery, or perhaps you will not read it at all, being twelve feet under the ground. However, I want you to know that I have stabbed you because of a contract made with the husband of the lady you stole the innocence a week ago, who wishes you a short life. Please hold no grudges, for I am only his instrument, and nothing else. Oh, and you may as well change your guards, one was drunk and the other trying to take advantage of him.

Please die soon, with love,

Your Murderer


Mmmmmm... Seems legit. *Nods vigorously*

That is awesome RolePlay letter ;D
If you want collect some bounty worth a few hundred gold, come Colonies island or EC island.
Lot of people with bounty on their heads but no collection so far. Hmm, they are old and going strong in their golden age ;)

If you're an infil in Thalmarkin, you can just stab nobles who just joined the realm :p

You should've come before Belruel if you wanted to kill Traemlin. ;)

Is he dead yet? Have you tried putting a scroll of summon monster on the underside of his saddle?

Last I'd seen he was still listed as rogue... My bounty board scribe note just became "outdated", too, so I need to check it again. I'd had it on good authority he was going south, though...
Title: Re: What's an assassin to do?
Post by: Eirikr on November 13, 2012, 06:49:50 AM
Darnit! He got deleted or left. No bounty anymore... I can't find the next geographically closest target, either... Oh well, guess it's time to cause real chaos.

Poor Traemlin, he's now suffered 2 assassinations, 1 death duel and some whining because of an ignored other death duel challenge. :(

But yeah, it was to be expected. ;)

Title: Re: What's an assassin to do?
Post by: Eirikr on November 27, 2012, 04:37:51 PM
Who's Shae? I wonder if I'll have better luck than with Traemlin.

Also, for the record, I only came back to Thalmarkin because I couldn't find the bounties from Enweil or Rio... I went all the way from Sint to the new peninsula and never saw 'em. Then, of course, in Thalmarkin I find both Pyrix and Traemlin in less than a day. (Too bad Pyrix was a council member... I was hoping the higher bounty was not representative of the difficulty in Traemlin's case.)

Not only am I the funniest guy on the forums, I've also only been on Beluaterra since about the middle of the last invasion. :D (Though nobody believes me anymore... I honestly had no idea how strong/weak the ties were between various realms and Sint when I stabbed Traemlin. Good way to learn, though.)

Shae was a leader of Melhed at one point and has pissed off virtually every leader of the northern realms at some point.

Yeah, I almost had a contract from my leadership then... I think I was the only Sintian to enter Melhed at that time. (Snuck in around the mountains to scout... Was too shy to go stab anyone or cause trouble at the time.)
