Woo!
Inclusion!

Name me one event that resulted from player initiated RP.

I think Glomdoring was one, but that is so many years ago now it hardly counts anymore. And I honestly can't think of any other. Ever.

Maylea versus Nocht Order War.

Oleanvir adders. Mind you, this is not a positive example.

As I recall, the whole Tainted Fae Wars arose from player-initiated stuff.

Didn't that very first event, the incident with the tainted little fae girl, start from player-initiated things?

That's what a lot of people recall, but if you ask the people everyone attributes it to, they say they didn't want to but Fain forced them.

Relatedly, Glomdoring doesn't count because it was planned soon anyway, it was only sped up because of player enthusiasm.


Yes, I think so. Erion misunderstood Elohora and the event resulted from the rampage.

EDIT: And the part where Elohora said anything at all was scripted. I think.

From memory, the Tainted Fae Girl, Tainted Fae Event, arguably Glomdoring... Those were all player-initiated. Also, there was some event-like hubbub revolving around the early push for Gaudiguch and Hallifax, resulting in an adjustment to how the quests work, and some understanding of the fate of Hallifax and Gaudiguch. The Wyrding of Glomdoring was also player inspired, though not necessarily in the same way as the former. So were some early Seren/Glom conflicts, pre-Glom, involving the Disciples of Crow. Also, the Marani event was the result of player action (or innaction!).

That's just off the top of my head.

That said, you are always welcome to post event ideas to the Plots board - though remember, they might not end up exactly like you think they would! They might just end up completely different!

And of course, if you push a good enough idea ICly enough, it might just get noticed and something done with it! Of course, there's a line on what is 'enough' and where you cross into 'too much'...

Oh yeah, I remember this one. We figured we couldn't kill Marani because she was one-shotting 12k health demi warriors (at that point I don't think it'd ever been publically revealed that smob attacks explicitly get weaker with more people in the room - at least, neither Magnagoran nor Seren leadership were aware of it), so we left it for a few weeks and Estarra decided we weren't killing her fast enough. So she made mobs wander around killing people until we all grouped up together and ganked her.

Good times. Heh.

And that got thrown out at the same time as another event, yikes.

Though, I did Winter Serenwilde.

Probably none of us know for sure, but my impression was that Glomdoring was planned for "someday" the same way as Gaudihalliackleguchfaxberry, and while it might have been planned to be the first of the four, it still wasn't to come for a much longer time than it did. But more to the point is that how it happened was not merely hugely accelerated by, but also shaped by, player actions. Wonder how much of that is true.

Fain took over Elohora and convinced Erion to attack the fae.


Also, don't forget that Moralis is actually Viravain's alt!

Yes. And I'm secretly Shikari. Shh.

Oh, I didn't know that one. Scratch that then.

I think the Scorpion thing in the desert was Catarin's idea, as well. Some book she wrote?

I believe Catarin used that with administrative guidance. There is a post out there somewhere about it.

Edit: Here it is. http://forums.lusternia.com/index.php?s=&a...st&p=542057

So... Myrkr = Garmr = Shikari? I'm not an old enough player to tell if that fits, but it sounds like it does just a little.

If Myrkr = Shikari, then she'd better un-lurk! The Ebonguard need their guld patron back!

im in ur commune, watchin ur peepz

Well it seems the way things go, there must be balance.

I am guessing Ackleberry with be an orderly commune preaching more balance and reflection than anything else. However RPwise, Ackleberry has to choose to return. The way that could happen: Bring back Sun and Jojobo

It seems likely that Tae'dae with be the favored race of Ackleberry, and Aslarans the favored race of Jojobo.

As seems to fit with history, music is the answer. Seek out a lost voice of a 4th circle (i think that's the circle) god and with it teach some Aslaran's the song to call to Sun. Call to the Sun Fae and see if they will lead you to Jojobo, wherever it is.

I am guessing that Sun would be a wild and free commune, contrasting Lake's balance and relfection. SOme would say that Sun is tainted and steeped in Madness.. but those in the commune would probably see Sun as having overcome the taint, and instead touched with Genius.

Get Sun to come back and inbalance things, and that shoudl get Ackleberry back here. Well ICly anywah

Design wise, it would probably be tough to introduce two communes at once.

Population-wise, it would definitely be hard to introduce even one new org.
