This is freekin scary

[SekoETC]

The first time my character got killed was when helping a guy drag people out of a car, not knowing the car was stolen.

Another time was when my character was being a creep and got chased by a mob, including an old guy wearing stiletto heeled boots. He got away but asked people to kill him since he was hurt so bad.

Another one got killed when the leader of Quillanoi died and my character picked up her keys and started demanding a getaway vehicle. He was hiding in a building but they broke through the door while he was sleeping.

Another one killed within seconds while trying to attack Olip forest with a darter.

Last one killed for trying to run a town and these people didn't think a transsexual was worthy of being a leader.

But no one's really gotten raped so far. A couple have been victims to intrusive, uncomfortable sex but it doesn't count as rape if you won't even try to say no. Not sure if I'm disappointed.

I've never been, seen or heard of any rape IC (but I've only ever played two females if that has anything to do with it). But I've been killed quite a lot. I've found out if you want to play antagonists you need the power to back it up, otherwise you are just considered a nuisance and the penalty for that is usually death.

Sometimes I wish real life were more like Cantr...

You could always move to Zimbabwe...in fact there are quite a few places where speaking out against the rule is punished by death. Not sure why you would want that though.

I may have unsubbed, but I'm still creeping about the forums!

I've never had a character raped, and I have played almost all female characters. Getting killed, on the other hand...it's happened a handful times over the course of a few years. I've had two killed by pirates (one locked up & starved, another killed with a claymore), one killed for stealing a pan flute from the ground and then annoying everyone with it (newspawn, they probably thought I was a troll or something), one was killed in a big massacre a while back, and not one, not two, but three were randomly abducted and murdered. Two on the road by (I'm pretty sure) the same person. It was only the massacre and abduction-killings that bothered me - at least the pirates RP'd. The massacre came out of nowhere, it would seem, and whole towns got wiped out by some tea-drinking crazies who didn't really RP. The abductions basically consisted of a guy dragging my chars onto motorcycle/boat, saying "Haha you're going to die, loser!" and then hitting them once a day until healing food ran out. Luckily only one of them was a character I liked and really worked on.

But like someone said - the vast majority of the time you can fight back, run away, hide, talk yourself out of it, or even join forces with the would-be murderer. I don't know when the combat system's supposed to change, but when it does it will make it even harder for your chars to get killed without you even getting to react. (Actually, I think those massacres might have been the reason that tea doesn't work the way it used to. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.)

You're right.

So I come on my computer and see this message board opened and low and behold, my brother was logged in.

You have nothing to fear when dying in Cantr. It doesn't hurt and it gives me quite the laugh. Especially if your character is really old.
