Bye Mitch,

Thank you for all that you have done here over the years, both for the community as a whole and for me. You have certainly left your mark on Illarion. Good luck in your future endeavors and I hope you'll stop back to visit every now and then to visit. I'm sure you will, everyone does.

3.) This is just a minor gripe, but the out-of-game politics were beginning to be too much for me. There are various folks who simply want to divide the players by ethnicity, age group, or roleplaying ability even outside the in-character forums. I was tired of hearing comments like that of Niniane...

The translation is The Smurfs. He was the only human in the show. The very evil and diabolical human who hunted the Smurfs! It was a cartoon that ran back in the 80's.

I speak from experience when I say this, but every country has their own version of 'History' that they teach.

I don't quite understand this proposal.

This would be no armor and anyon...

Wearing two shields is terrible rp for a mage and should be frowned upon. This is not a viable option to be accepted as a defensive strategy for a mage.

You have to count arrows in the same way as you would count a sword.

A war axe can hit from two steps while a fire sword can only harm the opponent from one step away.
