But it's Laysus, not Laneth. tongue.gif

And how the hell does an acorn fall from Newton Cave's rooftop? tongue.gif

Use Laysus'!

Dieing to an acorn is sooo yesterday.. closedeyes.gif
Ceres2005-08-26 22:09:43
Die to a leaf instead.
Ashteru2005-08-26 22:11:45
I don't die as easily as you. tongue.gif

A holy light forms over Ceres, and begins to form itself into a halo. Clasping her hands together, the halo shimmers and begins to grow in size. Ceres glances over at a helpless child, and shrugs nonchalantly. With a rush of wind, the halo flies over a helpless child and begins to elongate. The now-cylindrical halo pulses once, and thousands of tendrils of energy slam into a helpless child, who screams in agony, and falls down to the ground, his soul torn asunder.

Murphy enters from the southwest.

Ceres has stopped her own heart, killing herself instantly.

You raise a hand and point all five fingers at Richter, reaching out to your bond with the element of water to fill his lungs and ribcage. He gasps in pain and reaches a hand up to his chest an instant before it explodes violently in a hideous spray of gore and water, killing him instantly.

You have slain Richter.

A fountain of white light dances fretfully across Bob's body, steadily becoming brighter and larger as it envelops him. Suddenly, threads become visible, stretching from Bob's body all across the Basin, but the restless cosmicfire spreads onto these threads, devouring them in a heartbeat. A look of utter bewilderment flashes across Bob's face before he drops dead, the threads of his life extinguished.

Fits in with the Clotho death stuff. Well kinda. Cause they like, choose not to cut the thread and all. But whatever, I wrote this in 5 minutes while snacking on Welch's Fruit Snack packs biggrin.gif.

Hmmm... I thought cosmicfire had one, something about a fountain of coruscating light or some such.

I know I have seen that message. Maybe it only happens when a player dies to cosmicfire rather than a mob.

Suggested Blast messages:
Nikua lets out a terrified scream as his flesh dissolves under the intensity of the blast, the ray scouring his bones and leaving only a charred skeleton in its wake.

OR

Nikua clutches himself in desperation as his bones are methodically stripped bare by wave after wave of elemental energy, until finally he collapses into a pile of charred bones.

AND

Gripping your arm at the elbow, you brace yourself and unleash a concentrated ray of elemental energy directly at Nikua's heart. The beam punches cleanly through his chest, leaving nothing but a sizzling hole.

I know that we don't want to copy features from other ire games I still like the different deathsight/deathsense messages in Imperian.

'Blah has been slain by the might of Blub' is rather boring but something like 'Blah has been crushed to death by the magics of Blub' would sound much more interesting if Blub would have been a Geomancer using chasm.

Maybe, if the Divine here would like, the players could come up with a lot of different deathsense/deathsight messages depending on the skill or ability that killed the victim.

I will be the first Moon follower to say no, please, no! I don't want to have 50-100 resurgem triggers dry.gif I like only needing four (normal death, bleeding, drowning, death by shrine). But that's the laziness speaking.

With the exception of my untimely death at the hands of a rat mad.gif that message looks BADASS. Woot. I want! *squeal*

Yes, despite the fact it'll probably involve a novice detonating my spinal column.

meh bored

Staring down at (insert whoever your annoyed with) pitifully attempting to writhe free from his entanglement. Saran slowly causes the nature surrounding him to come to life, Small vines creep out from deep within the earth crawling down (whoever)'s throat, cloging his airway.

A few moments pass

In a spectaular display of blood and gore, Vines burst forth from (victim)'s body, tearing it to shreds. Slowly the vines retreat back within the earth drawing the flesh and bone with them to fertlize the land.

I'd prefer that the kill messages credited to players be kept consistent, just for sanity's sake. But varying the mob's kill messages would be pretty fun. I enjoyed some of them in Achaea.

Yrael presses his hands together and dissappears from sight. A moment later, maniacal cackling echos ominously throughout the area. A vision of Yrael springs to life in front of a fiendish newbie, first one, then two, until a fiendish newbie is completely surrounded. Each of them pull a demonic-looking dagger from their robes, and one by one stab a fiendish newbie viciously. He is completely unaffected until the final Yrael, the real one, cups his hand over a fiendish newbie's mouth and stabs him in the back.

Yrael's dagger bounces off of a fiendish newbie's aura of rebounding.

Yrael has been slain by a fiendish newbie.
