Today Dysolis learned a very important lesson. If you're going to mess with someone's guild/citymate you better make darn sure you're paying attention (not afk or obvlious to what's going on), or at least have ingested kafe and have insomnia/wake triggers. If you don't, your ass will get dreamweaved. wink.gif happy.gif cool.gif

Rising up from cracks in the floor, the Megalith of Doom towers above
everything here, polluting the air with its foul fumes. The Keeper of the
Megalith stands here radiating a tainted presence. The subtle flows of nature
culminate in this growing rose of blackness pulsing with divine radiance. An
obsidian eye sigil is here. A sigil in the shape of a small, rectangular
monolith is on the ground. A painting of Stabbington Bear, the Psychotic Teddy
is proudly exhibited on a nearby wall. The fossilized remains of Khujab are
here. There are 3 Ur'Guard Grand Marshals here. A white and brown speckled pony
grazes nearby. A tame wakabi lounges here, preening its feathers without a care

The Pool of Stars.
This location is flooded with shallow, crystal clear water. The stars twinkle
in the clear night sky. Meeting in the radiant heart of New Celest, the broad
city streets come together in a large, open plaza of marbled stone. Rising in
the centre of the plaza is a structure of noble and luminescent pillars which
suspend a round, ring-shaped platform twenty feet above the light-studded
surface of the pool below. The atmosphere within the structure and around the
pool bristles with a warm, electrical energy, giving a slightly disorienting
sense of dizziness and euphoria. A gradually ascending stairway winds its way
about the inside of the pillars, leading towards the upper level of the
structure and offering a bird's eye view of the pool. An enormously wide
circular pool, as dark as the night sky, glitters softly between the columns.
His form suffused with soft light, the Keeper of the Pool of Stars stands here
attentively. A statue of Isune stands here, memorializing Her noble spirit. An
obsidian eye sigil is here. A sigil in the shape of a small, rectangular
monolith is on the ground. Floating just above the ground, an archon of Eternal
Light radiates power. A noble pegasus stamps one reflective hoof, his gossamer
wings flipping impatiently. Crackling with blue lightning, the Handmaiden of
Shakiniel hovers in the air here. Limned with holy fire, a celestial archangel
stands loftily on a floating cloud, regarding you with her sympathetic eyes of
light. A magnificent white unicorn stands here in silence, illuminating her
surroundings with a gentle silver glow. Sir Ordos Dekoven, Disciple of the Dove
is here, sprawled on the floor. He wields a silver longsword in each hand.

Centre of the Necropolis.
Rising up from cracks in the floor, the Megalith of Doom towers above
everything here, polluting the air with its foul fumes. The Keeper of the
Megalith stands here radiating a tainted presence. The subtle flows of nature
culminate in this growing rose of blackness pulsing with divine radiance. An
obsidian eye sigil is here. A sigil in the shape of a small, rectangular
monolith is on the ground. A painting of Stabbington Bear, the Psychotic Teddy
is proudly exhibited on a nearby wall. The fossilized remains of Khujab are
here. There are 3 Ur'Guard Grand Marshals here. A white and brown speckled pony
grazes nearby. A tame wakabi lounges here, preening its feathers without a care
in the world. A full-grown rat prowls near your feet. There are 2 baby rats
here. Trooper Shiro is here. He wields a tormented spectre flail in his left
hand and a crimson double-chained taurian flail in his right. Torak, Scourge of

I don't get it.

Aren't you supposed to use Avenger when getting picked on?

Ceres2005-06-16 17:56:44
If you'd got him with nightmares, I woulda approved.

Forcing kick guards, nah.
Vix2005-06-16 17:59:39
Yeah. Things like this is partly the reason why kicking your own city/commune's guards doesn't make them attack. Stupid how the nexus keepers haven't been changed to do this also. This is the second person you've made die by attacking the nexus keeper as well. Get some style!
Sylphas2005-06-16 18:26:43
It's lame, but it does take someone afk and undeffed, usually, unless he's targetting novices.

Not that that excuses it.

Vengence is ridiculous.

If it was just a death I would fully support the system. An eye for an eye and all, I agree with that. However, vengence also pacifies someone for quite a while which is completely stupid. You can't even defup while pacified.

Perhaps if it was durring an influencing of an open village or something where there was at least some strategy involved to have the person pacified....-maybe- then it would be acceptable. But I don't like people screwing with other people's afternoons.
Vix2005-06-16 18:28:31
Right. And poor Dysolis is a near-novice judging by his might and non-race-specialization.

I've done that before too, this way is just much simpler and more interesting. I can't think of something much more disgraceful and surprising than being killed by your own nexus guard. biggrin.gif

It is a style, it's called creative and effective. Fits in nicely with Razyx's rp too.

He's 0% my might, so yeah he's not got a lot of learned skills.

However...

He's 154th in Lusternia at the time of this post, so he's done a fair bit of bashing and probably knows his way around.

He's a mentor and able to take on proteges, so he's spent a fair amount of time in the realms and should be competent enough to have/use insomnia, kafe, wake, or just plain walk away. He should also be familiar with HELP AFK.

He survived the horror of Kethuru when creation was threatened...which means he's definitly been around awhile (which fits with his mentor status).

Dysolis is not a novice. He's not mighty, but he's far from being a novice.

I don't have PK careful on, and I'm definitly not stupid. I fly by the seat of my pants a bit maybe, but not stupid. I -do not- like my attacks being restrained if I want to kill/attack someone. If this means I get cursed once in a while, big deal, I like bashing astral. My method is to highlight the names of people who have suspect on me so I know not to enemy them to my demesne or attack/kill them unless it's necessary.

I've been a mage for all of 3 weeks, never heard of it before (granted I'd never really seen dreamweaver attacks before either). Everyone runs around whacking people with their swords/clubs and "point staff" too...at least this method is outside the norm.
Gwylifar2005-06-16 18:40:24
This is so obviously in complete contradiction of the whole purpose of the Avenger and everything about its design that the administration should seriously slap people who use this sort of thing to subvert it.

Also, dreamweavers should step up and police their own lest dreamweaving as a whole be crippled because of people who are using it to get around the rules.

My intent was not to get around any rules, it's just how the system is.

An excerpt from AB DREAMWEAVING POSSESS:
QUOTE
The most feared power of the dreamwalker is the ability to possess the sleeping body of another.  This can only be maintained for short periods of time, though the mischief that may be done during this time can be dramatic.


- It definitly instills fear that you're not safe at your own nexus. Judging from everyone's reaction to this, it's definitly a feared tactic. happy.gif

- It's definitly mischievous. ninja.gif

- How is this different from gusting/beckoning someone into aggro npc's, guards, statues, etc? Or jumping on someone's Astral sphere and linking 20 times causing them to be killed by an army of critters? doh.gif I don't have a problem with dreamweavers being given suspect for this as long as everyone else is for the above listed inconclusive list.

As far as policing your own goes...reign in Elryn a bit before you start griping about Magnagora's dreamweavers. glare.gif rolleyes.gif

A lot of people think it's crippled as is. Tactics like this are the result of having -very- few other options. Besides, the whole thing could've been stopped by an insomnia reflex. Paralysis and every other affliction is a bite too until you learn to cure it.

I was avengered by a former citymate who wanted to reincarnate, later he left the city and called vengence on me, even with that I was just a little annoyed... I didn't even care to try to kill (then again I had vitae up when it happened).
