Glaumring is always near naked, or wrapped in a bear skin cloak, he filthy all the time and ragged beard and hair, his body is tattooed and he looks like a wildman. When he does end up in armor its usually rusted banded metal armor with leather mixed in it. His sword is a notched beaten piece of iron.

Aye, no one takes religion seriously, thats why there is the current tensions between religions that is shaping Dwilight, nations rise and fall according to the whims of the stars and elements of the earth. Perhaps it is you that do not take the religions of Dwilight seriously... I see religion as a serious way to shape the world,whether it be spiritual or the mechanisms of man and their devious ways. Power over man or the power of god.

I have added to Sanguis Astroism in my own way by bringing in a physical aspect to the stars, its not popular and only a few people have talked about it or indulged in roleplay about it, but I invented the 'Bloodmoon' fruit. Which can be read up on the wiki if anyone is interested.  The main core of Astroism is stable and static, but there is lots of small things that can be added around its central idea. I am not asking for Bloodmoon to be added to the church, but the idea does infect and change thinking. I noticed that many religions are mostly about ephemeral things. I decided that perhaps the physical world needed something that could bring about the spirit world, just like peyote or other fauna drugs out there in the real world. Anyways, just one example.

Agreed, lay a framework and then allow the player to build from it.

Indirik speaks clearly about the events.

Asylon is an independent nation, a secular nation and holds two faiths currently VE and SA. The difference between us and the Saxons is that the Saxons were xenophobic and tortured to attain a place for their religion and purposely pitted themselves against SA. SA in Asylon has worked with VE, we have advocated peace and cooperation, and our nation we believe is the future of Dwilight. Thulsomas end and Asylons beginning may at first seem the same but they diverge at a point. I know I was there for both realms ends and beginnings.

In my opinion SA has been more at war with themselves and for some reason the other realms have taken offense to that and have tried to include themselves in SA's internal struggles... VE and SA are hardly good enemies, there is not black or white struggle, or conflict, stars and elements are hardly goatheaded horned daimons and blood sucking baby eaters. This struggle will rise and it will fall, it will probably fall with VE taking the brunt of the fall because its nations are so scattered around the map, where many of the SA nations are close and feed off eachother in a cycle.

Uninvited or not torture is something that I wouldn't just bandy about as a remedy, banishment is sufficient no? Or negotation. There was also an Astroist temple in the Saxon lands, I built it... It was torn down by the saxons, the temple there preceeded their arrival by many years. The main problem is this, Libero pushed and pushed for a war, and we original Thulsomans decided instead of fighting we would unite with Summerdale and retake Thulsoman lands(game mechanics wouldnt allow our kingdoms to join as one) Then as if by chance , either a curse or blessing... The Saxons came from across the sea and made the Thulsoman exodus so much more interesting, Haruka seized the empty throne of Thulsoma and called her nobles from far lands to rebuild the kingdom of Thulsoma as a new entity, the Saxon Hedremoth faith... For it helped us to fight the war against Libero without our own nobles losing a single man or spending a dime.... the Saxons would weaken Libero for us... We receeded into the far lands away from Summerdale and the north and joined Asylon.

Would an expert on that conflict please weigh in? I am only familiar with the build up, and Libero aggression, not the later Saxon arrival and crusade part

Can someone please tell me how Haruka and her ilk have become the victims in this fiasco? They have tortured priests... TORTURED! The war with SA didn't go full tilt until they TORTURED SA priests, not once did SA torture a Saxon priest, yet SA is getting the bad reputation of destroying a realm that was rabidly xenophobic, that stated over and over again how superior their own faith is and their desire to destroy all other lower faiths other than Hedremoth and TORTURED priests, not once but 2 or 3 times as I remember..

Then Averoth, who signed a Federation with Thulsoma during my reign as the original founder of Thulsoma, I leave and Averoth comes to the aide of Thulsoma under the Saxon hegemony and fullfills the federation with Thulsoma for a federation that was originally signed for Averoth to defend a fellow Sanguis Astroist theocratic state from invasion from the fascist regime of Libero.

Can anyone see how messed up the situation is in the north and how it could have been avoided if Sanguis Astroism and Libero had of heeded my diplomatic overtures to the leadership in Libero, which they chose to ignore so they could start a war with  a fellow Astroist theocracy... All for land and power, now see how far Libero has fallen, to a mere 16 nobles and Summerdale claiming the lands that thousands of SA crusaders died for... The quagmire of the northern war, fullfilled all by the masterplan of one man, Glaumring the Apasurain..muhahahhaha

Asylon has very good relations with Zuma and we frequently trade food and cooperate on monster killing. Its not super buddy buddy, but there is a common goal of clearing out monsters and feeding people... Oh and eventually teaming up and taking over the world...I mean...!@#$ how to erase that last sentence, can't figure out this new forum... :P

Averoths revolt is probably an attempt to avoid Astrums blitz...yeah

I originally came from Melodia, but when it fell headed over to Shadovar and was having a jolly time when the D'Harans came over and then took over , banned me for some rea.son I cannot really remember anymore and then found they were wrong and unbanned me, but by then I was booting out of that fiasco. Surprised that region is still going.

I was actually originally from Madina on an other account , went up to Melodia and helped in the founding of that colony but around that time Tom found I was using two accounts and it was deleted, so I had to come up with a whole new history that kind of resembled the old one without all the quirks... Never will cheat again.  Really annoying that was but glad it was found out early and not at  like a stage like this in the game when I am actually doing stuff fun. Lesson is! DOn't multiaccount!

Everywhere Ironsides trouble follows...Its funny and kind of odd.

Question to people in Madina... What do you all do down there? Is it basically a stepping stone nation or what? Never hear from you guys at all... Its so far away from the action.

I find the Giask/Pel/Fissoa fight interesting in a kind of sadistic watching molasses fighting tar battle in cold weather... Its like everyone knows there is a fight going on but it basically takes 50 years inbetween battles.

Asylon is frustrating but more fun and more options than Thulsoma had, but we're basically in the same position we were in as there,surrounded by monsters oh and the wild monsters in the forests too.

Whats going on in far off realms? Asylon is slowly building up and a lot of the drama and outside conflicts have subsided and we are focusing on realm growth and stability. We have come a long way from when we were two seperate peoples and faiths. Though outside realms like Caerwyn/Astrum etc care more about the faith thing than we do we don't often mention it or even have issue with it within our own realm. Asylon has had a pretty rocky start from neglect then coup then outside interference and constant monster attacks. I am curious to find out the little courtly intrigues that happen in far away places that we rarely interact with.
