That guy plagued me for IC YEARS. I was probably one of the reasons he was never caught, because I was completely inept at how to kill one of you little bastards on your own turf.

Though, "If we'd have known you were a PC, we would have emoted" was an excuse that was legit, I wouldn't play Arm. Bad form.

Haha yes I can't count how many times I tried and failed to kill that halfling with my legionnaire PC, and I remember dragging that other certain legionnaire back.. if only we caught as many halflings as we did cheotans.
Someone says: I imagine the festivities have worn you thin... Well good. I plan on leading patrols over the next month, that would turn even your shriveled manhoods into sturdy poles of destruction.

I dunno man, with all the hostile halfling NPCs that were around, I can certainly sympathize with PKer's in this case.

Lord knows, I certainly don't spark an emote-fest when I run across aggro-mob #492.

You know, I was thinking this isn't all bad.  some of ya'll who have depressing deaths make nice presents to find out there in the wastes!   :D  I know I have.

Died trying to bury a friend.

It was... Disappointing, to say in the least (But his actual death had some conclusive solo-roleplay that left me feeling content-ish).

I still shook my fists at the sky when he died, though.

Is shitmugging actually what I think it is?
Now you're looking for the secret. But you won't find it because of course, you're not really looking. You don't really want to work it out. You want to be fooled.

If you think it sounds like handing someone a mug full of shit. Yes.
A staff member sends you:
"Normally we don't see a <redacted> walk into a room full of <redacted> and start indiscriminately killing."

You send to staff:
"Welcome to Armageddon."

That would be grounds for a player complaint. Though like cleaning fluid, really ought not be a way to kill a pc.

You could also just >look in mug.
All the world will be your enemy. When they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you; digger, listener, runner, Prince with the swift warning. Be cunning, and full of tricks, and your people will never be destroyed.

l in shitmug
it's full of a brown liquid

Yep, the only thing which works is:

Ale is brown, shit is dark brown.

Depressing death from a year ago.... Or longer.... Lets see... (man I can't beleave I've been here long enough for this)

My first Pc was named Mason (dubbed Morbid Mason by a certain Byn Lt.) He joined the Byn. Well, he got stuck in Luirs, as I had to emergancy quit. On this trip i had my first run in with a gortok, and was just scared poopless. It was AWESOME.

Well After awhile of starving and dehydrating in Luirs, and missing a few pickup attempts, i run into this Half elf ranger who offers to take me to Tuluk, so i can at least hang out with people.

We go out and about, going to random areas like the tablelands, for some reason I don't know. Meanwhile this ranger talks about being tough, ect.

So then this Carru pops out and my ranger buddy just BOLTS. And I'm like " Oh, I'll take it on"

I got it to terrible condition before being eaten...


Edit me:

Oh one more. Back during the whole southern RPT of doom thing. I had an Oashi PC burgler turned House Guard. Well I went to battle, had a fantasgreat time and all that. But during it a Tor wagon crashed into a chasm in the table lands. I thought it was hillarious, and so did a bunch of others, calling it "the flying Tor Wagon"

So I posted it on the IG board. Aparently someone SAW ME OOCLY POSTING. Even though there were many in Allanak joking about it at the time and I was simply posting it, since it seemed to be talk of the town.

I was assassinated because of it.

It was funny when a templar told me that when a glow crystal glowed, it was detecting lies though. (i had never seen one IG before, LOL)
I remember recruiting this Half elf girl. And IMMEDIATELY taking her out on a contract. Right as we go into this gith hole I tell her "Remember your training, and you'll be fine." and she goes "I have no training." Then she died

My most depressing death.. And best Arm experience:

I had a character 12 or 13 years ago, who started out as a no-good pick pocket SOB, got in good with The Guild, then joined the Byn as a spy of sorts. Got noticed by a Templar for supplying poisons.

As he was being chased by templars, and flagged for arrest, he stowed away on a Kadian wagon with a buddy heading north.

Met a Kadian girl. Fell in reciprocated love with her over several months, and planned to wed. Kadian girl got murdered by a Northern Noble over jealousy, so my character stopped at nothing to return the favor.

Ended up with a pact between desert elves to kill said noble in return for trade favors. Northern noble was murdered, and my character wasn't implicated, even though he was the driving force.

Died to dogs while being escorted by his new fledgling love, and his house hunter to Luir's..


Best Arm experience ever, and most depressing death ever.. for me.

Survived a war with a noble house that burned down Freil's because of my antagonism, but couldn't get past a Jackal with two escorts.

One of my very first PC's, I think he was actually my second, was called Gar, nicknamed 'Little Gar' by Faithful Lord Gar Winrothol, an assassin/hunter I think. Joined house kissagrahphpaper as a partisan thanks to mr Lord Gar, and was doing swimmingly, getting trained up to be the next best thing since Disposable Runners, for use by the templarate and my house. Went out hunting with the rest of the Partisians, got seperated.

Saw a Verrin hawk.

Thought, aha! I can take this little bird!

I have since spent my time looking for that hawk.

I went after the green halfer quiet a few times with Prophet, but I never managed to find him. Took the fight all the way to the halfling village once, but no sign of him. Had to kill two or three dozen halflings, but I never did see the green one. He was always justout of reach, watching me from the trees off the North Road.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,

When somebody tells you to rest in the room that had guard guarding when you're not codedly 'recognized' by the guard cause you're a nobody, and you sit down to rest when the said somebody went somewhere else to do something.

So you're sitting in that room, -alone- with the guard. And the guard finally decides to kill you when you're just sitting there chilling. :( And I had a good role play going.
Veni, vinci, voici.

I'm okay on my own.

I played a halfling for about 2 real life years. Over 30 days time played. He escaped so many deaths that I lost track. Escaped death to other npc halflings due to some crazy code issue. Lived through multiple NPC near death encounters due to thinking he was more uber than he was. Narrowly escaped so many deaths to PC's, some uber PC's I might add, and Tuluki hunting parties and mobs of soldiers trying to retrieve one of their friends that was dragged deep into the forest by my halfling after he was paralyzed (Wow..no idea how my halfling survived that.) Lived through some great events set up by PC's, Imm sponsered events and other strange occurances. PK'd lots of PC's...around 20 or more when I absolutely had to (Being in character and always having a reason to do so...while even letting more people live when they should probably have been killed, but it was better for them to live and tell the story to spark more events. Made sure I always tried to give them some good RP before they died to make it cool.)

Ended up taking a break for a few months. Came back and played for about a week and ended up running into three half-giants. Tried to RP but got insta-bashed when they entered the room. Three skilled half-giants while bashed....*BEEP*

Got Kudos though stating they thought my guy was a NPC and they would have RP'd had they known. :(



Dunno if you were Kust or the green guy... but I certainly miss the halfling PCs.

My first long lived character, Zak, was kind of buddies with Kust.  And he was a Legionaire.
"A man's past is not simply a dead history... it is a still quivering part of himself, bringing shudders and bitter flavours and the tinglings of a merited shame."
-George Eliot

I think most of my depressing deaths go hand in hand with the thread entailing dumbest things you've ever done.  I've lost a number of pcs to my old net link being so crappy in the days of phoneline modems.

The other depressing "end" is not a death but a forced retirement from my favorite clan.  Basically, it was one of those years-ago super-secret clans that I could tell you about, but I'd have to kill myself in doing so.  The clan was closed due to what I think was a player or two being unreasonable toward the staff, but the details are hazy.  I really miss that clan sometimes and wish they could make a comeback.  Ah well.
