[quote=@Hygswitch] Vestec - That old sweety. [/quote] NO. STOP IT. VESTEC IS DEATH. VESTEC IS TERROR. FEAR HIM AND RUN AWAY. *Sees Vestec playing patty cake with a small child.* WHAT DID I JUST SAY. *Vestec incinerates said child after losing.* Better. [quote=@BBeast] In our defence, to magically know that Vestec would have done nothing bad despite threats to do so and barely a clue to the contrary would have been metagaming of the highest degree. Maybe we could have guessed that he was bluffing, but being Vestec, there was still a good chance he would carry out the brutal and vicious extermination of everything in his path, even if he did initially intend for it to be a bluff. [/quote] If you just don't call his bluff and do nothing, he'll self balance. I think I had this argument with Vakarion's owner early into the RP (right around the moon kick?). Vestec balances out until you do something that makes him want to piss you off or prove you wrong. Example: The Aftermath of Logos' push against Jvan, Vestec, and Zephy. Before that the Chaos was reasonable. After that it started trying to infest everything and anything. So as long as you say 'Bet you won't!' He'll balance it out. That's what happened last RP. Everyone fell into one of four camps; Didn't care: Arguis, Ferghus, some other's whose names escape me. Was already corrupted by Vestec: Astarte, Ialu, Thulemiz. Was just as bad as Vestec: The Dragon God, Vowzra. Stopped fighting him: Escre, the Sanguine Communion. So Vestec made an order of Order to fight all his Chaos and others that were running around.
