gundam, you could maybe spare other players from your characters self-destructive tendencies.

the reason no one was going to support you in luria is because there are bigger things at stake in dwilight currently. dwilight needs to be pushed in certain directions at the right times in the coming months if it is ever going to be a healthy continent again.

the problem with the things you do is you dont consider the long term, you blindly jump in saying"things must be changed and im the man to do it RIGHT NOW!" and expect people to jump on board with no warning or discussion or any consideration of what THEIR goals might be. thats why your track record of success is so poor and your effect on the game so negligible.

you would be much better off talking to players who want to change the game for the better and finding ways to help them out, or at least going to other players/characters who might support your plans and actually finding out if they will and discussing it beforehand.

And again, I was not speaking of what I was doing. The problem is there is only one type of character people will follow on a plot, and that's the secular, work behind the scenes type. There are hardly any characters that actually act out of actual religious beliefs. I found that out when I tried to get ESA to do something, anything, by quoting from the teachings of Seoras liberally. You want to know what their counter arguments were? It wasn't "That's not what he meant by that, he meant this <insert arbitrary reason here>". Oh if only it were a matter of theocratic differences. No, the reason they argued against me was for one secular reason or another, from "we should be battling monsters" to "but war is bad it hurts the peasants". I mean, for goodness sake, your character is in a religion! At least pay lip service and pretend you're following the tenants, even if your character has no intention to.

Very few characters in religion are actually religious. People who actually roleplay in such a way are inevitably called fanatics for their unwillingness to be "tolerant" or whatnot.
