  • Oh, yes! Their failures are legendary, but every single one of their failures were because Ladantine pressed the issue. It was either "do this now" or "get rekt by mah military might". Hallifax doesn't have a crazy empire overlord (well, now they do…
  • I'm not literally saying "Hallifax is full of idiots". They just pale in comparison to Ghalphalshi. They are still very much the intelligent scholars and aeonic tinkerers we all know and love, but they are prone to doing some extremely silly things …
  • History! Ghalphalshi was the center of knowledge, with the greatest colleges and scientific minds of its time. Meanwhile Hallifax does something truly terrible to keep itself aloft (I won't say on the forums, because people would drag that knowledge…
  • To be fair Hallifax is the Lusternia equivalent to online "colleges" where you can buy a diploma, as compared to the center of knowledge that was Ghalphalshi (the mugwump city that stood where Balach Swamp is now).

    The Holy Cele…
  • Raves for Bandrui, and whomever makes Bandrui talk. The character is so amazing, and fits so much with Mugwumpi lore that it gives me goosebumps.
  • Heh, this is Lusternia. Nothing perfect and wonderful happens. We're doomed... again.
  • Dahlla had things to do. Not one concern about the apocalypse.


    Zenos redoubles his efforts to consume the God. In response, the numerous tubes covering the clockwork form release a sudden wave of blinding e…
  • Oh damn it, did we all just die? I was starting to fall in love with Lusternia again, too.
  • Part of me really wants to try for the knowledge seal this year (or whatever one was the trivia one), but I'm just not satisfied with my current knowledge of history. I've forgotten so many things over my year-long break, and I lost all my notes whe…
  • I don't remember that version of the song, but this one hits me right in the nostalgia.

  • An upgraded version of weatherproof. It just doesn't feel strong enough when walking through some areas.

    A power that makes scaling mountains and/or diving below water slightly faster.

    A power that red…
  • Technically, the modern ur'Guard is more like a tribute band, and not the band itself. That leaves wiggle room for the lore (not much, but enough).

    The same can be said for many other guilds in the game, but are we really going …
  • When you CREDITS CONVERT <number> TO LESSONS, it should display the number of lessons you will get before you type agree.

    This isn't a problem for experienced players, but it could help clarify some things for newer player…
  • I saved Horehound and Calamus from certain doom with the help of @Astrasia ! Yay!

    Not sure I can survive gravediggers to tend to the wo…
  • Decided I'd start to take logs of the totems I carved. Including in-game date and time, as well as room name/number. Picked a terrible day to start doing it. 78 totems later and my shoulders hurt so bad I have a heating pad on them. Still enjoying m…
  • I don't remember what I wrote on the thingy for the thingy. I probably just rambled about things. I know I could have earned one credit if I saved it, but I'm so afraid of making a mistake somewhere and getting ousted. x_x

    Raves…
  • Maybe a sort of communal socializing/utility spot for each faction, and then each class can have their own areas outside of that with lore ties, where they can mingle with people from their class regardless of faction?

    I honestly don't kn…
  • (Quote) Funny and spooky at the same time! In all my time in the Illuminati, I had never seen anyone who was serious business all the time. In fact, a lot of things are super fun there! You should see one of Ixchilgal's dances!
  • Synkarin has such a pretty face though! It's all "Rawr, I'ma splat you!" and then you splat, but he's still super nice about it! 

    As far as differences, there are a ton of them. Too many to really single them all out and put the…
  • (Quote) It's soooooo grindy, but so good! I absolutely love the atmosphere and the music.
  • Not sure how simple this is, but maybe a way to earn experience/essence by utilizing your trade skill? Hunting and influencing are nice and all, but there are quite a few players who prefer to just socialize and be productive.

    M…
  • Does sudoku count for this? I recently bought a few jigsaw sudoku books, and they're lots of fun.

    If that doesn't count, I've been playing Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne on my PS2 off-and-on for a month or so now.
  • A fae knight says, "Here, the Queen's words are law, and we follow her words alone. Follow them well, or your stay will be short and unpleasant."

    Listen here, you aggressive little grumpypants, if you and your friends keep talki…
  • Yay! Got into a guild! Must grow ALL the things! Plants for you! And you! And you! Plants for everyone! Also bees, but mostly plants.

    Disregard, no bees.

    Maybe bees.
  • I have a very strict personal rule that I never take OOC information IC, and never give any information over OOC mediums that would affect IC events.

    I prefer my RP interactions to be spontaneous and natural, not a pre-planned e…

    Froggy feets! They are so adorable! I wanna touch them! And I hope I don't accide…
  • As far as the ablaze vs herbs discussion earlier:

    From my observation, fire has a notable impact on the herbs growing in an area. It's not a 'suddenly all herbs are dead' scenario, but it seems as if it slows, stops, or even outpaces the …
  • I hate to post twice in a row, but another idea is an artifact that wipes your family history clean. Just... make it like you were never born into that family. Some of us made poor decisions when our characters were young, and some of those poor dec…
  • One absolutely MASSIVE rave for @Estarra and whomever else came up with the holiday promotion this year. I have never had so much fun or felt this much holid…
