Gm's - dunno about you....

Post by Guklok »

this might be way to persanal, and i brobably should not ask this... because its none of my business.
--Why Cant you Delete Charecters like [Drakhen] so the hell raising would be stopped? Do we have to die in this game to have fun? do we have to be in a fantasy , far beond my belef? I know there might of been ALOT of chaos in the mediavel times. but i am just a wee one. any chance i might be retarded? or do i look at things to closly. I suppose we need the balance of evil and good (funny how its alot like the real world).-- ()(off the topic)()-- and also, can we disable the overight in the posts?--

-Guklok P.S. If you reply at all,  i thank you for taking your time here.

Drakhen is not a Character. Therefor, no "PK". It is an evil NPC. Every GM can steer him.
If you meet him, step out of his way fast, or challenge him, if you think you can bear the risk. I thought you knew that already :o)
Drakhen is a Lich, a powerful undead. If you want to face him, be sure NOT to be alone. Even then, he can be quite a threat. But against a good organized team with some stong persons in it, he has no chance.

Can be steered by all GM's.... hehe I thought it was only one :biggrin:

Drakhen is not a PK, he is one that helps with the storyline.

I would not call him an NPC because that may lead people into thinking that he is like Eliza, only like this:

------------

Drakhen Vorkalion says:  I was pleasured to have killed you.

and

[NPC] Use me to kill yourself.

-------------

Well just a thought :biggrin:

Maybe I could, but I don't know what it is.

Sounds like every player controled character that kills someone is a PK - they are not as long as they have in game reasons.

Of course, Drakhen is no "PK" because it is roleplay, and a player who kills with a good roleplay reason, is no "PK" either.

well, two things, what reason would he kill? and also, overright is when you make a
sentenc like "i like food, it is good" but if you have a paragraph and you dont want to
erase it all and rewrite it. "I adlike fo ud, it is good"  you would have to go back and thois
is what it looks like "I lilike foo, it is good".

Alright... no one awnsered my question... What reason does Drakhen have to kill everybody? To set his minions on helpless newbies (no offence new comers). And so you reward him to make minions? And his allies to make minions to  kill people? It seems ABIT odd for some reason. Because anyone thats evil gets rewarded for being evil? I am getting the consept that you take your anger... or one of the GM's ... out on the people to set them straight or something. Its annoying me... but i am not sure about any others who are... they enjoy the adrenalin to kill evil. But me i just dont understand. maybe i should be told to quit asking... but its already to late i suppose. Thanks for even looking at it. And also, what story line are you talking about?

Where did you get the idea that anyone gets "rewarded" for being evil? Just think of it this way, Drakhen is just a really intellegent and strong monster in a quest. It is NOT a  PLAYER who went around killing people and then the gods gave them more powers to kill people.

As for Drakhen's story you might need to ask someone ingame who knows, or ask Drakhen himself.

As for the story, you can also go to http://www.moonsilver.de/ and read the legends about Illarion. As far as I remember, Drakhen is a servant of the younger god Moshran, who became evil after getting disfigured while saving the world of Illarion. Because he is disfigured, not many people like worshipping him, but he thinks that he should be the most-worshipped god, because it is him who saved Illarion. So he decided to take control over our world, and Drakhen is one of his three helpers.

By the way, before Moshran became evil, he created us, the Orks.

Please correct me if I got something mixed up. My memory isn't the best anymore :-)

Drakhen is not one of the three servants of Moshran in the legend. At least there is no actual proof that supports this theory.

I checked and it is true that it is nowwhere said explicitly that Drakhen is a servant of Moshran (must have got something mixed up). But he might well be a servant of Cherass, who is master of many Liches, and with that he would be also subject to Moshran's orders.

Just a theory though.

And quite a logical one - the most likely one too.
