Quote10) Sandin - Dead (dwarf assassin, wanted to "take the head of a bahamet solo", 2 hours in and died)

Oh man, 2 hours?!  HE WAS SO CLOSE! ;-)

I hope I'm not the only one who is absolutely loving reading these.  There are so many characters but I am finally putting players too after so long.
Yes. Read the thread if you want, or skip to page 7 and be dismissive.

Right there with you. Sadly my memory for most of the PCs that played with mine is HORRIBLE, so.... I maybe know them, maybe not?

That's not a random thought either.

1. Aoshi - Oashi Captain in the Elites - died to a scrab after forgetting to redraw my sword

2. Kazyn - Long lived Byn Sarge - AoD Captain - infiltrated the rebellion and escaped back to Nak just before Kul showed up.  Died in the battle of Luir's to a unit of half-giant NPCs

3.  Nev - Rinth elf assassin - died after only a couple hours in the rinth

4.  Lith - Another Rinth elf assassin - was part of a crew that ran the screaming mantis, got in a turf war with the Guild.  His own crew killed him to settle the blood feud with the Guild.

5.  Rakhan - Southern Templar - part of some crazy plots and died to [redacted]

6.  Sano - Half-elven ranger - stored

7.  Elithan - First post-liberation Jihaen PC - Stored twice, once in 2004, unstored in 2006, and stored again in 2009.

8.  Farraj - Byn sarge - Died to the brand new (at the time) Carru code.

9.  Sahaym - Whiran - Worked for the Guild.  Drowned in the silt sea.

10.  Khuz - Benjari Ranger - dDed to wezers.

11.  Luhk - Mul Ranger - Died to a botched raiding attempt.

12.  Ilias - Oashi Whiran - PK'd

12.5  Elithan unstored

13.  Qasim - Another Oashi Whiran - PK'd

14.  Jaleth - Mul Warrior - Died to a beetle after forgetting to redraw my sword (You'd think I would have learned by now)

15.  Thul - Ranger - Stored

16.  Chakal - Jihaen Templar - Stored

17.  Sakhalid - Sorcerer - Died to a beetle

18.  Akram - Warrior - Died to tarantulas

19.  Hasan - Sorcerer - Did so much crazy stuff I probably can't talk about here.  His death is noted on the history page.

20.  Current PC.
man
/mæn/

-noun

1.   A biped, ungrateful.

Since everyone else is doing it, I guess.  Infamous/long-lived/interesting PCs bolded.  These are just the ones since the bio system went in.

  58) Wak – Dead  It's relatively easy to get involved in a lot of shenanigans as a half-giant, but this PC was all over the place.  Died to a Whiran doing things that Whirans can't do anymore.
  59) Koveld - Dead
  60) Keljak - Dead
  61) Xalo - Dead  Not really notable, but he was an ATV merchant, and I managed to compile something like 1,200 crafting recipes with him, thanks to the hunters always bringing in max greb.
  62) Kelildi - Dead
  63) Oran - Dead
  64) Scrub - Stored
  65) Kirildi - Dead
  66) Zavaz - Dead
  67) Zaz - Stored
  68) Jlath - Dead Most would've known him by Rash.  Sandas pickpocket/custom subguild Whiran, and rolled AI agility and exceptional wisdom.  Too much fun, really.  Died doing something stupid because I didn't know all the ins and outs of what <redacted> could do.
  69) Khlast - Dead
  70) Moxa - Dead
  71) Lorillax - Dead
  72) Rumble - Dead Rukkian half-giant.  Got dragged into ROFLstomping that one tribal village with Salarr, which was both hilarious and cringe-inducing.  Suicided into the Silt Sea because I got sick of waiting outside the gates for active spells to drop.
  73) Umi - Dead
  74) Malik - Dead
  75) Giuseppe - Dead  Branched every warrior skill except tridents.  Died along with his rugged doppleganger at the gates of 'nak, I believe.  You can't parry fireballs.
  76) Mitok - Dead  This guy wasn't particularly noteworthy, but he was hilarious.  Elkrosian who hated being a magicker, and hated all the other frilly/frippy card-playing, wine-drinking gemmers in Oash.  Supplemented his Oash gig by going north regularly and zorching Tuluki hunters.  Got mekked on a return trip. *sigh*
  77) Ranwirth - Dead
  78) Shavlok - Dead
  79) Prystik - Stored  Non-'rinthi city-elf merchant nobody who rose to become the highest PC-attainable rank in the Jaxa Pah.  He actually really wanted to be part of the Byn, but got kicked out after like a month, and spent the rest of his life trying to ruin the lives of everyone involved.  Stored him because I'm more of a "doing things" than "coordinating things" kind of player, and I basically got tired of all the admin b.s.
  80) Valix - Dead
  81) Broga - Dead  OHK backstabbed by my former Jaxa Pah homies.  THANKS GUYS
  82) Dref - Dead  Not particularly noteworthy, but I accidentally no-emote PK'ed a Kadian family member to exact revenge on some girl who was throwing knives at orphans in the 'rinth.  I got yelled at so hard for that, lol.  (Sorry, guy.)
  83) Yutz - Dead
  84) Briggs - Dead
  85) Cletus - Dead  Damn-near maxed out dwarf ranger who got pressed into joining the Legion after his indie employer ran afoul of Salarr and/or the northern templarate.  Still can't parry fireballs (thanks, Sarge).
  86) Yusku - Dead
  87) Harwyn - Dead
  88) Groba - Dead

41) Maoten - Stored (human pick-pocket, worked for House Kassigarh but not on PURPOSE. Kind of got conscripted by the PC noble. Spammed peek a LOT on people, got caught stealing from a masterbard (not codedly, staff were just watching and decided I got caught. Unfair, yes, but holy shit I needed to be reined in)).

I don't know how this happened, but it at least sounds pretty lame imho

Noble: Go buy me this thing, peasant.
*noble doesn't give nearly enough coin for thing*
Me: Alright, I'll do it anyway, and cover the overage.
Noble: You didn't bring me the remainder? Are you trying to short me?
Me: No, Chosen Lord. There was not enough coins, and I paid in part from my personal stock.
Noble: So now you're saying a Chosen Lord of Kassigarh doesn't know the cost of things?

Was either start "working" for Kassigarh or deal with a Templar who is going to "correct" me for disobeying orders.

I mostly meant staff deciding you got caught. Anything short of stealing a master bard's lyre during a performance is a bit off when we have code for that, I think.

Its not the first time staff have decided the virtual world trumped the code, and I'm sure it won't be the last. I still think it was a bit of a janky move on their part, but I basically wandered around the city peeking at everyone I could until I saw they had coins to steal, and then would steal them. I remember very vividly, about 10minutes afterwards, my PC Boss contacting me and ripping me a new asshole because a Masterbard just told them I took coins out of their pocket.

I pored over that log for half an hour trying to figure out where I might've broken hide, or failed the skillcheck. I'm confident I didn't, but you can't put the chicken back into the egg, and staff control the "HENTIRE" incubation and hatching process.

No character I've ever had has ever had the power to shape the world around them quite as much as the common cutpurse. None of mine have lived very long, mostly because of the climb code, but every one I've tried is really something epic to behold.

Walk into the bar and every single player is watching you. Emote walking near someone and watch them suddenly close all their pockets, packs, and pouches. They'll ignore the gemmer sitting at the end of the bar who can fireball them into ash and instead focus on you to make sure their bone knife doesn't disappear off their belt.

I've never had a pickpocket actually get caught stealing, but everyone just KNOWS a pickpocket when they see one. It's really an amazing thing to behold and I want to play one again soon.

On break.
Sitting in your comfort,
You don't believe I'm real,
But you cannot buy protection
from the way that I feel.

I should have known you were Howler. God damn it I was mad when she disappeared.

OMG I remember Qasim! Oash was fabulous back then. Until about 2 weeks after I joined. Then literally EVERYONE (like 5-6 active PCs) died or stored at the same time (I'm still looking at you, Zoltan and Aaron Goulet!). And I was left to hang out with a certain infamous rogue Whiran out of sheer loneliness.  :P

I think I sent Qasim a kudos for showing me that cool high level magic that I'd had no idea existed.

I once gave Heejo a BJ on a bench in public using hemotes. I always wondered if he noticed.
as IF you didn't just have them unconscious, naked, and helpless in the street 4 minutes ago

I just checked.

I'm on PC # 84.

And I can't tell you about any but the first 3 because THEY'RE ALL LESS THAN A YEAR.

My PC, who was hiding next to said bench, noticed and he thought you were giving -him- a BJ, so I acted accordingly in hemotes as well. I always wondered if she noticed.

With poison in my wine-cup, and daggers at my back."

You are the MOST fun to RP with ever and you need to come back 'cause I just did and playing with you again would be AMAZING!!! <3 You were the first person I ever saw really use hemote much and it made me want to use it more. I still do it along and it's really fun when people catch on to it.

Also, COME BACK!!

People in the room can see you successfully steal something without the whole virtual room becoming aware of it.

>You notice the tall, muscular man steal a pile of allanaki coins from the tressy-tressed woman.

I've seen it, anyway. And I decided not to notice them taking my empty bag, but there was another girl sitting at the bar at that time who also saw and wouldn't let it go, so they got caught anyway.

Sure. But that isn't what happened. The person I stole from, reported it to my IC superior. It was a while ago, it's just one of those "this is where distrust comes in" scenarios. I didn't fail, the world only reacted post hoc. It happens. I was stealing alllllll the times.
