Re: Style Ideas
I second asking for style scrolls for all the Gods. The Sylphe and Iosyne ones are so cool! I at least want Ivoln!
I'd really just like to see current styles fleshed out for all the classes. Let me use Bedrock and Stormy with my bonedagger!
Oh, and I'd love a Chaos themed one. One that implied you were using energy from the Chaos Plane or one of the Chaos Lords would be awesome.
Also a 'game' one would be neat, where each attack revolves around various games. Ex: Ascendril channels pure fire into a playing card before hurling it at the enemy. Teradrim smashes enemy with a giant chess piece of solid rock.

Re: Style Ideas
- A passive aggressive style! "You bring your weapon down towards $target, but then decide they really aren't worth the trouble."
- Styles for each of the cities.
- Spirit styles for all of the Spirit-aligned classes with Shadow styles for the Shadow-aligned classes.
- A 'dancer' style? Not dancer, necessarily, but a style that highlights a fluidity and gracefulness of movement.
- A fancy or 'showoff' style which highlights you adding unnecessary footwork, flips, etc. to an attack

Let us also appreciate the hard work put forth by farmers. Ceaselessly have they been plowing the land for our ravenous need for comms and plants production. Proletariats, rise up! I present to you with a need for a farming style scroll.

WHY DO WARHOUNDS HAVE SO MANY TRAITS IT'S LIKE A WHOLE EXTRA SKILLSETWelcome to the Carnifex, Cadet. Report to the Keep for your soulstone.
Also, every god should have a style scroll, and maybe some heretical albedi ones.

Re: Style Ideas
A prideful style. Where the first-party message suggests that you're crazy super special awesome at bashing lizards into the dirt, but the third-party message makes it clear that you're a Gildenroy Lockhart through and through.

Re: Style Ideas
Not exactly a style request but an idea I had regarding styles:
I say you take Elene's idea and the clumsiness scrolls and apply it to every classes bashing skill as default and have it tied directly to the skillrank of the skill involved (or level). As you level up/invest lessons you move on to the current default messages and then at Trans you get either a class specific one for your guild or you get one at random (for your class/guild still)

Re: Events post #261: The return of Varach Scolrys
Rewards distributed. Sorry for the delay, no lie, my uncle died and I just lost the will for a day or two. Better now. There are some bugs, but I'm fixing.
If you think you deserved a reward, email me, and we'll fix! The searching was intense and could have missed a person.
Cursed = title, relicskill
Supercursed = kitten
Died to Varach = title
Never touched = title

Style Ideas
Hi friends.
My name is Brax, and I have a confession: I kinda love writing styles. It all started when Keroc said, "Hey Brax, why don't you do those Sciomancer/Ascendril styles while you're waiting for more mirror class messages to write?" Before I knew it they were done, but then.. I needed more.
And now here we are! While the majority of my online time lately has been spent writing mirror class messages (sorry Order, still love you I swear), every now and then Tiur lets me out of my cave to work on something different. Styles are a nice little change of pace when all you can think about anymore is WHY DO WARHOUNDS HAVE SO MANY TRAITS IT'S LIKE A WHOLE EXTRA SKILLSET TO WRITE DEAR LORD MAKE IT STOP.
I can crank out style messages no problem, but the actual conceptualizing of the style theme itself slows me down a bit. That's where you come in!
Please use this thread to discuss potential new style ideas. If you've been dying for a specific style, here's your chance to get it out there!
Fun part: If I end up using your style idea, I'll give you one free style scroll of that type upon completion.

IMPORTANT LEGAL TEXT:
- These will be more of a "chip away at this between projects" type deal. I make no promises that this will happen fast if your idea is accepted. No Soon^TM or promised timelines.
- I can't guarantee where style ideas will be used! Maybe they'll be in a promo, or a holiday event, or something altogether unrelated.
- I already called dibs on a LOUD style

Re: RL Struggles, Strife, and Sadnesses
I have it better than most, and all of the things that I deal with seem like first world problems-- but I also literally never talk about my life ever, at all, with anybody these days, and that's probably not great haha.
My spouse went to grad school a couple years ago, and it was really hard. We just got through it, barely, financially, and I was the only one making money. I had to give out several IOUs to contractors in order to keep the lights on during COVID-- it was terrifying and stressful. But we made it through.
All of that threw me into a massive depression spiral, one that was hard to get out of, and was only aggravated by moving to a new state, without any childcare, without any support network. Then to top it all off, my spouse literally broke their back in January (making me temporarily a single parent and a caretaker for my spouse, as well as trying to work full time)-- I nearly had a mental breakdown (or did have one) when the combination of decompressing from the financial strain of the past several years plus all the other obligations and responsibilities I have became extremely overwhelming.
The silver lining is that my spouse is feeling better, and after a medication boost, I am too. I can't wait for COVID to be over so I can get back in therapy and also stop feeling like a bad parent 24/7 because my kid is essentially locked inside away from the world.

When I was struggling with a loss, the below analogy helped me a lot. Just sharing in case it could also help anybody else here. Spoilered for length, but very much worth the quick read.
