You might have seen it in the announcement here, but House Kohmar is kohm-ing to a city near you!  ^_^

Discuss your favorite parts about House Kohmar throughout the years, or ask questions if you need them answered.

With appropriate roleplay of course.

I would like to special apply for Harold Kohmar. He smokes a lot of spice and loves Ivory Pyramid sliders. How much Karma do I need for that role?
Quote from: MorgenesYa..what Bushranger said...that's the ticket.

I know literally nothing about Kohmar.
Can someone tl;dr it?

I don't know anything about Kohmar, but aren't kanks extinct?

Is this an April Fools joke?

House Kohmar fell from a position of prestige and power many years ago.  Its remaining holdings were taken over by a group of free-lance merchants that went by the moniker of House Delann.  However, even they failed to keep more than the holdings they now possess in Luir's.  The untold story of the remainder of House Kohmar's assets is now evident:  they have emerged once more as a power to be reckoned with.

Watch out, GMH.  (◕‿-)

Kanks are extinct, but they have lesser known (and much heartier) kin, the fire kank (very similar to fire ants).  We have obtained video of a fire kank in action within a post-apocalyptic world:

While other Great Merchant Houses experimented in other areas to replace kanks, Kohmar aimed to improve on the known-good model.

Can I special app to play a fire kank? I think I would excel in this role as I love both Kanks and burning things. I promise to make interesting rp for everyone around me by setting them on fire and bleating that them - thank you for your consideration  
The sound of a thunderous explosion tears through the air and blasts waves of pressure ripple through the ground.

Looking northward, the rugged, stubble-bearded templar asks you, in sirihish:
     "Well... I think it worked...?"

I heard that Kohmar hires neckers.  And they breed mounts. I also heard that Khomar neckers can ride fire kanks in a special unit known as the Khomar Kankers.

I would like to special app in as a necker Sergeant in the Kankers  ext subguild Lancer.

Cheers.
At your table, the XXXXXXXX templar says in sirihish, echoing:
     "Everyone is SAFE in His Walls."

It may have taken me nearly five years since Decameron's brilliant suggestion, but I want to say I'm really proud of having finally gotten fire kanks in game.

Did you post in the Ask When My Request Will Be Done subforum? I don't process requests that no one's nagged me about, I need that hit of guilt and anxiety to get my ass in gear.

Helper chat unbanned me.

I think firekanks' fire colors should be blue fire, because normally the sky is red, and we need some contrasting color in game.  Right?  Oh!  Can I mastercraft firekank fire colors?
Former player as of 2/27/23, sending love.
