Thats another one of my points. My charies dont plan to take over Cantr through violence to big, to many people, to much work and slaughter. They will ue peaceful means. No clan, town or empire has sufficient reason to kill off a peaceful mivement that breaks no laws. If they do they would have rebellion on their hands or start making people uncomfortable with their organization

I am guessing you haven't met the Macgregor's right?


edit: also, off topic but this seems to be one of the fastest posting topics right now

He probably hasn't. Money, I'm sure even if you act all peaceful and stuff, right when they learn that you'll try to assimilate them or something you'd better run FAR. They have some REAL good cars to travel the island in just a few days...

There are probably hundreds of Cantrian islands, and you have to find them first. It probably is possible, in more than one Cantrian lifetime.


Money might know how big Cantr is, or have a hint of it --- but his characters don't! And your characters shouldn't either unless they have seen a map with several islands, so letting the OOC knowledge of the world's size stop you from imagining you could take it over is a big fat CRB. Don't take it so seriously and try to see things from IC perspective. If a character has never seen order and organizations, they will believe that all of Cantr is as chaotic as locations tend to be and they believe that it could be united under one leader or philosophy because people would welcome the order. For a newspawn, the world should be his spawntown until further ingame information is given. We mustn't forget how to think like a newbie, untainted by all the OOC information.

well we have some violent chars but they are like that because of rhinos and some lithuans. And it's hard to make any army or wharever with few active members....But one thing I hate about the lithuans killing all thingy is that they don't rp....I mean, I don't care if they kill all my chars. But at least put the emotes in english!!! grrrrr....

Oh yeah. Thanks for reminding me. On Aki my charrie thinks that Aki is normal. I've often thought what would happen to my charries if they got into situations. If my Aki character landed on Treefeather or something, he'd be in for a shock.

Something along the lines of, "STEEL!?! IRON? What? Where's... what are these things?!? How'd you get rid of the beasts? They look less vicious... but still never trust them.. but ah... steel!!?! GIMME SOME!"

Somehow the Gallagher map made it to Aki....

Well, someone discovered Aki didn't they? My character on Aki found some coal, no idea what it is, calls it black rocks, hmm, wonder what that sounds like?

It seems much more likely to me tha the idea of conquering the world is what is really a CRB. How does one go from bonking animals on the head with a bone club to thinking about ruling the world? Do you think (1) that he got the idea from his experiences of living in Cantr or (2) that he got that idea from OOC stories and history? I am betting on #2.
