Well as far as I followed the events on the thread, I can only say one thing:

Blame your character. Throwing threats at others without the strenght and ability to back them up surely gets you in trouble, there's no doubt in that.

And he sure bragged a lot and made them pretty mad.
You can still play the role of a social outcast though, strolling the countryside and coming to the towns when you think it's save, to stock up on supplies again. (roleplayed clothes, food, whatever you think of)

Or you could try some more subtile ways to harm them not by brute force but through intrigueing, kidnapping, etc.

It's a roleplaying game, take a deep breath and think about what you would do in that particular situation (if you had your characters temper, past and other emotional features though) and act accordingly.

And perhaps one more thing: It's not about winning or loosing this conflict, it's about making it worthwhile for everyone involved by trying RP the best as possible.

Keep in mind that it is possible to let your character "loose" and still enjoy yourself through the roleplaying which lead to his downfall.

Could easily just find others who are not liked and team up with them.

But if your characters not a people person, he could just stay alone.

just think of it like this:
Your char wrote it, not you.
Your char is as foolish to do it without any strength and stuff, not you.
Our chars are picking on your char for his stupid actions , Where not picking on you.

And you can alwais use the power of "#me" (try not to use any forced rp though even though it may happen a bit if you are grabbing someone or so a bit of forced rp isent bad)

For instance:

Lutup sneaks up on Kevin from the shadows of the trees
Kevin catches a glimpse of lutup while carving a staff.
Lutup jumps at kevin with his dagger
Kevin tries to evade it but gets struck in his arm and is now unable to use his two handed sword.
Kevin shouts: aahhhhhh! Damn you lutup!
Lutup grins "Who's the fool now?"
Alexander von hattigen walks past and sees the two
Alexander: What's this?
Kevin 's arm is bleeding due to a wound made by a dagger
Lutup is holding a bloody dagger
Alexander rushes toward Lutup
Lutup: damnit!
Lutup tries to flee
Alexander chases him for a short while and then returns to kevin
Alexander: Kevin are you ok?
Kevin: aaah! ... Arg, my arm hurts.
Alexander hands kevin a potion "Here drink this"

That wold seem like a good example to me no?

Although your character has no background in fighting and in the rp seems to be weak so I suggest you don't do something like this

Liles: Lutup, it's time you die.
Lutup draws a sword and slashes at Liles
Liles draws his sword and parrys the hit before going to take his rib
Lutup pulls the sword quickly down to his hip and defects it before aiming for Liles' head

I mean, Liles has fought many things and also killed many things as has Kevin and alot of other Pwnting chars so watch you don't over do it

1) There is a newbie forum for things like these you know...

2) Your character was stupid, if you start a new one at the same time.. nobody will effect him, the player has no effect IC.

3) You can always get people to fight for you:

You : Hey [insert name of angry orc here]; aren't you the one who [insert your enemy here] said was too weak to even cut flowers? :twisted:
