Any request that involves a character alteration seems to involve an unlucky event on the horizon..
Anonymous:  I don't get why magickers are so amazingly powerful in Arm.

Anonymous:  I mean... the concept of making one class completely dominating, and able to crush any other class after 5 days of power-playing, seems ridiculous to me.

I've had a spec app die about two minutes after getting an app-involved skill tweak.  Sorry Belenos. :(

Lol, one of the major OOC motivations to log on and stay alive is having a desc/skill app :P

Clans can give stat bonuses and penalties, too. The Byn drop in wisdom is particularly notorious.

This has never happened to me.  Then again, I have had relatively few desc-changes, even on long-lived characters.

Strangely and notably: My characters usually face a challenge to their life within two-three days of me starting to think about possibilities for my next character.

Sometimes, I live through it.  Sometimes, Mantis-Head.

Oh so many times.

I still think the best closure you get in Armageddon is just moving on to the next character.

I played in a clan where pcs could claim a leadership position by announcing their intent.

The funny part was that I noticed that everytime someone claimed that position, they would die shortly after.

My character even had some superstition surrounding the matter.

But that didn't save him when he got around to reaching for the position himself.
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.
