Development / Re: Retirement
« on: June 12, 2019, 06:10:07 PM »
I think the only way to really incentivize folks without a lot of churn and burn on retiring characters is to have some sort of bonus upon retirement conferred on the next character created. So if I have a character that is 130 years old (shout out to Edvard Perfect II on EC), and retire them, my next character on EC should have some sort of bonus. I like the idea of some sort of unique item, but since those can be stolen or lost due to degredation, I don't know if that's the way we want to go. A boost to skills + h/p would probably be the best, fairest solution, with the idea that the older the previous character, the bigger the boost on the next character.

East Island / Magical Events in Bescanon & Surrounding Regions

Recently, we had some magical events take place on the north-center portion of EC:

With night falling, peculiar sounds filled the air, of groaning, creaking timbers. No, not the usual perpetual production of siege engines within Bescanon. Something different.

Some claimed to see large shadows moving through the sky above, but others denied these reports on account of it being a night filled with dark stormclouds. Elsewhere, peasants claimed to have been injured by shattered wood falling from the sky. They were promptly investigated for witchcraft rather than provided medical care. Within Perdan, a considerable amount of sod fell upon Eros Harte's head.

As troopleaders attempted to continue about their duties they began to notice that the infrastructure once known to be in the region was no longer present. Or in other cases, infrastructure once known to be in one region was suddenly within another region, causing people to doubt which region they were really present within.

The beam of light began to dim, ever so gradually, throughout the night. After many hours, the portal light was extinguished, leaving the charred remains of the eight portal stones encircling a unique item, Othello's Gloves of Imagination.

Some RC's got switched around, but it also looks like Bescanon and Perdan lost their walls entirely? Or they were moved and given to the Northern-allied realms across the river? Doesn't seem exactly fair, usually these things have a trade-off where there are positives and negatives to either side, but this looks like the North just basically won the war with one move?

My character is all the wall on a different portion of the island, but still this seems a bit uneven to me.

Dwilight / Re: The Shmaeless Swordfell Recruitment Thread

Historically, yes, Swordfell was a bit top heavy in terms of realm leadership. However, with the recent "changes" that have undergone at the top, there is tremendous opportunity in the realm right now.

New leadership and openings, ongoing wars with neighbors, and budding colony realms right next door. Probably the most fun the realm has been in a bit, even with the chaos.
