Hmm. That was oddly specific. Well I bet anyone who has a character in Quill can guess which one I play. :D :D :D

Also I have nothing against the person who plays the character Seth Everett. My character just really really dislikes your character.


Always wondered who played him... I bet you dislike that character even more now.... :lol:

You know you're screwed when... your character is on a road with a sabre wielding madman and the next town is FAR FAR away,plus you have no healing food and only a wooden shield.

or... You are simply a citizen in Lad and not a Guardsman.

Some sorta shape that is...


No different than real life. If you are political operative in Podunk, Georgia, you are not going to rise through many ranks of import by comparison to a political operative in Washington, D.C.

About what can and can't be known about Lad... there are anti-lad or anti-sester notes just outside the borders of the empire of the empire all over the place from people who have escaped, my char has seen them. So concievably a lot can be known about the reported evils of Lad through these notes, including Sester. ICly, a person may know about an expansionist Lad, and want to wipe it out. OOCly, they may know that Sester is a power broker in Lad. So on the boards a person could say, you won't have to worry about Sester after Alenz gets through with them, because Alenz may intend to invade Lad, thereby killing the leadership. So ICly the character may not know they are taking care of Sester, but OOCly they can say their character will be taking care of Sester without the implied motivation ICly that they already know about Sester, what they know is that they want to invade Lad. Where motivation can be found ICly in many that have escaped, and there have been enough, and some that spawned there and were allowed to leave... well in Naron, up until a point the people thought that Sester was still on the loose, so it is convievable that a person could here about the evil Sester in Naron, and all the migrants from Naron to Miron Hills could spread the rumors about Sester... et cetra... Not to mention the Naronian rebels that pepper the continent like so many broken shards of glass.

Well now, people won't have to worry about Alenz Hills after Sester gets through with them.

I also believe Naron knows that Sester is back and Emperor Hawethorne has decided to keep him as his General.

Plus, I do find it funny that Sester name ever got out and was widely blamed for everything that happened with the Empire and other places, most of which he wasn't even part of and was something else that another person did. Plus, Sester never gave his name to anyone. The only people that might know about Sester are those that escaped Ladvicitavoi and why didn't they blame what happened on Emperor Hawethorne or Major Rock who was more in charge of those things than Sester who was trying to rebuild the military. I think players just want to blame everything on Sester becasue they think that Sester might have killed one of their characters. It could be that people have a grudge against me as a player and want to see one of my characters in power destroyed and that is what I am beginning to think. I am beginning to think if you have something against me as a player, I am going to quit my current account and start a new one and play only one character at a time and I will never talk about my characters here again.

now richard, you shouldn't let these people get you down. they're just jealous because you've got the power and know how to use it.

that being said, I second Chris' comments.

But your unsubscription wouldn't necessarily be a good idea.

That's too bad. Rumors have a way of building on themselves in Cantr as in IRL I suppose. I don't have any chars that are actively trying to take down lad, so it ain't me! I do have an Alenz character who is trying to join the military, he doesn't know anything about all this international intrigue though.

If your right about that RKL, about people with grudges IRL et cetra, its too bad people can't play the game right or learn to compartmentalize. I can say that I have no personal grudge against you or sester IRL, but I guess some people can't sepreate RL from games like most of us do. You have a lot of interesting chars, to bad we won't here about them anymore. :(

About the Naron thing I was talking about before they knew and the travel lag et cetra. People that left Naron a long time ago may never know that. I think people like to simplify things so they want one big evil figure to blame all occurances on, so Sester may have been a victim of that... (although I wouldn't often characterize Sester as a victim lol)

I don't think you should unsubscribe. It's just that Sester is the Empire's figurehead, so people focus all their bad sentiment against him. No one I know and talk to has a vendetta against you, and I certainly don't. Your unsubscribing would do more bad than good IMHO, as all your other chars would be lost, and some of them are pretty important and integral to the locations they are in
