Of all people, why him?

It is odd - of all people, he was the most reluctant to enter the war. Then he got killed and his son was like "Well, time to avenge my father any way possible!"

If you're going to make these arguments, don't make them OOC.

If you insist on making your own arguments against my character in OOC, I'm going to do the same. The same rules apply to you that apply to everyone else.

Solterra is not having an ego moment. Neither is he slaughtering priests, nor starting a war. Cole wants to take Therral land and hold Alexis hostage from inheriting the throne. The armies are ordered to kill the soldiers. They will try their hardest to leave the innocents alone, unlike Cole. But Solterra will end this war, whether it is with him going down in a fight, or taking Cole down.

Win or lose, Cole's forces will be brought down. Either Solterra gets land, riches, and fame and he saves his sister, or he won't be witness to the possible harm that could come to her, or the fall of Therral. His men are not fighting for a crown, or for riches. They are fighting for their homes and their families. So if Cole really wants to do this, he better be prepared for the consequences, win or lose.

It is interesting to note that, while Solterra has butchered or driven out all of the priests in his lands and forced unfair and strange laws on his people (oh, and more than likely sent an assassin to murder my vassal Lord), Cole has not murdered a single person. Not only is Alexis entirely unharmed, he took every one of her guards alive and holds them all until the war is over. Then they'll be released: not executed.

The whole perception of right and wrong in this current conflict is quite.. Odd. Cole may not be a paragon of virtue, but he also doesn't proclaim to be some sort of messiah - especially not one that hurts the land more than he helps.

Because I almost did. I was taken back into hospital with a bleed on the brain and have spent most of the last month in a medically induced coma. I'm all mended now (except for pain, but that will pass). Is anyone around that still wants to continue this?

Damn, dude, that must have been tough. I'm glad you're doing better though! Take it easy, will ya? No throwing cars or leaping tall buildings like your normal superhero self, yeah? ;)

I'm around, but with even less time than before. However I could still make an occasional post if this resumed.

Most deplorable characters/things you've RPed

Oh, man. I saw this thread and couldn't not mention Jackson Murphy.

On the old site (and continuing onto the new one) for at least a year or two, I was involved with a Walking Dead-universe (non-canon characters) RP. Though my two main characters were very good people, the RP was missing a huge component: an antagonist. The group central to the RP had survived many a horde or zombies, and needed something new. That's when I came up this gang of marauders new to the area. The group was large, equipped with military-grade equipment, and utterly ruthless. Their leader, Jackson, was the worst.

In my opening post for him, he has a father and his three sons tied up in an abandoned office building. He demands to know where the family has their supplies stashed, and shoots one of the sons through the heart when the father doesn't answer. However, he promises to let him live if he tells the gang. Then, when he finally does give the location, he shoots the other two sons (body shots, so they will re-animate), and leaves the father blindfolded, and bound by the wrists in the office building and locks the door behind him. He fulfilled his promise and didn't kill him: he left the man's dead sons to do the job.

In another story about him, the gang catches a thief trying to take some of their supplies. Jackson takes the guy and nails him to a tree. Then, he takes a few walkers, cuts off their arms, and damages their jaws, and sicks them on the guy. Long story short, the dude dies a slow, agonizing death while these handicapped walkers gnaw and scrape with their upper jaws. To finish this touching tale, Jackson kills the walkers and leaves the re-animated corpse of the thief nailed to the tree, with a sign that says "This is what we do to thieves" attached to him.

So yeah... That's the only *bad* character I've ever played.

Cognatic can mean Agnatic-Cognatic or Absolute Cognatic. It must be specified which one.Update's on its way.

Absolute Cognatic (sorry 'bout that)

To Lund ap Lunds [ Early Middle Ages NRP ]

Pelataria uses Absolute Cognatic Primogeniture. This may (likely will) change in the future, but this is what Lord Cole and past rulers have done.

That being said, Damon Cole is the intended heir.

Solterra is not a member of House Trisch. He is physically incapable of becoming the Overlord. If he wants to declare himself Overlord regardless of traditional laws of succession and regardless of the lack of recognition he'd receive from the Kings of Lundland, he's welcome to try and do so. Speaking from an OOC standpoint, though, he cannot be Overlord. He doesn't have the blood.

Hm.. That is an interesting argument. While I agree that Solterra could not ever become the head of House Trisch (due to no blood-relation), Overlord is merely a title. A title that Trisch family members have always had, but a title nonetheless. If he were to succeed in killing Rone, and established himself under the name of "Overlord", he would technically be the overlord.

Also, sorry for DP but, I don't like how your Calisii Bowmen use crossbows. Bowmen just, implies Longbows, or their smaller cousins.

It's quite alright! Sorry, I have quite a bit of lore on Pelataria created in my head or in an offline document, sometimes I forget that you guys can't see it.

The Bowmen are named such because when they were initially founded (generations ago when the House was created) they used bows, and were famed for it. Now, with the relatively recent discovery of crossbows, they have made the switch.

It can be equated to the US Military's use of cavalry through history. The military still has a 1st Cavalry Division, but they use tanks and armored vehicles now, not cavalry. Technology changes with the times, but the name remains the same.
