Tried making one, took forever, finally went to hit "complete," and got an error message. Turns out, the site crashed while I was in the process of making my avatar! And it's still down.  I will attempt again tomorrow to join the addiction! *determined*

@Celaphaeia, I think the link in your last one is wrong, but if you come up with the right one, can you please share it? I like the pic!

Sorry! Try this?

That worked! Thanks! And I was just about to stop but I can't resist... Sorry for the spam! I like all the background options on this one. I can see one for every Lusternian city/commune.

New picrews yaaaaay

One thing, that I think I asked a long time ago, but am curious for the answer of todays divine is

1. how do you see prayers and how do you feel like they should be used?

2. What's your favorite pet-peeve with us mere mortals?

1. It's very rare that I'm actively online to see a prayer come through in-person these days, so often I see them through the log in my fulcrux or by catching up through my messages. Personally, I think prayers are the more formal way of talking to your god privately. Most devout people talk freely as though their god can always hear them - and even if we aren't always listening it's a good way to behave in-character, as we Could always be listening. For things that are public affairs, I personally prefer people talking on the order aether to using prayers - as the order is there to be a community and join in worship, so why not share thoughts for their experience and thoughts as well? However, the simple thing to say is that there is no wrong way to pray except for praying out-of-character things, as all prayers are in-character. I love both the prayers from foreigners who send cryptic or overly serious missives, and I equally love a certain order member's steady stream of simple prayers talking about their day and always ending with an endearing, 'I love You. Amen!'

2. I have two answers for this, relative to all players and older players respectively. Both equally peeve-y.

2a. You tend to be very impatient. There are times when you ask an NPC about something, I think of a good answer, go and possess the NPC, and by the time I've finished typing the sentence (or even the blink emote) you've run away before I can respond. I know it can be a little disheartening when it feels like an NPC never responds, but if you really want an answer, it's worth waiting around two minutes with them (and potentially continuing to talk to them) to see if there's any response out of the normal. Such as a sudden blink, smile, curious, or eyebrow emote. Those tend to be an indication that something else might be coming!

2b. People who believe they've seen everything in Lusternia tend to...skim room descriptions. And descriptions in general. Then, when you reference a room with a particular feature rather than saying "Go to <room name>", you get blank looks. People blink and suddenly realise that you are very nearly naked when you've been that way for about twenty minutes. While this seems like small potatoes, the more you skim read things like that, the more you get used to it [skimming instead of full reading] - and then the more likely you are to walk right past us when we're starting an event and miss the NPC who's suddenly standing somewhere new or the weird thingamajig that sprouted out of the blue! Which can make for an awkward situation between you (the person saying you can solve someone's problems) and the NPC (who saw you walk in and out of their room 4 times without seeming to react to them in the slightest).

The crayon brush lures me in every time and it got the closest to her description. #tinywings

A couple just came in. Thank you to the folks who do these reviews!
