I think that was one of the artifact descriptions I asked our awesome new volunteers to write. Definitely doesn't look like one of the ones I wrote! The game is definitely better off now that I don't write the descriptions.
It's a pretty good description. Your volunteer did a good job!
As an aside, since you're here @Eoghan, the axe doesn't actually count as any sort of weapon. The thing is, this means a person cannot decapitate with it, could this possibly be fixed at all?
Your icewyrm makes its final strike, leaping forward onto Therian and pinning him to the ground with its bulk. Slowly, itching with hungry desire, the wyrm draws a wicked claw across Therian's chest, splitting flesh and calling blood to the surface. Its control finally breaking, the wyrm lunges for the wound and dives snout-first into its warm depths. With quick, forceful bites, the wyrm tears through Therian's body, disemboweling him and gorging itself on his innards. Your faith increases as Therian falls by your hand.
"On the battlefield I am a god. I love war. The steel, the smell, the corpses. I wish there were more. On the first day I drove the Northmen back alone at the ford. Alone! On the second I carried the bridge! Me! Yesterday I climbed the Heroes! I love war! I… I wish it wasn’t over."
My forum avatar is ready-made for the phrase "I moustache you a question". Also, Kabaal, you have just ruined shard harvesting for me forever, you dirty magicker or demoner or whatever you are.
Finally breaking open my original copy of D&D purchased for $2 bucks, forcing my kids to play a tabletop. Getting to watch my daughter enact the brutal slaughter of a fire beetle by her thief, with sound effects and all.
Old perks, like 10 credits on mother's/father's day or giving out stockings that give random gifts every Imperian year. It's little stuff like that I miss but really enjoyed.
I wish we got stockings this year. I hate the way the giftbag deliveries are working. I'd rather just a daily login small prize than a 'idle for hours' small prize you may or may not get.
You mean the little gimmicks the game made up to pretend it cared? Yeah, that was much cooler than the corporate oompaloompa that we're rocking out to now.
I dig that sort, a little effort for your reward is fine by me.
The player appreciation promos aren't entirely wholesome, mind. I could have played for a very long time without ever buying a single credit. Then I won a pretty decent amount of credits from a game event and it was all downhill from there.
I could buy a very nice car for what I've spent on IRE games. Possibly two.
We will do some more of these soon. We semi stopped doing them because people stopped really participating in them as much. In particular the weekday specific ones.
@Teravi, of all people, getting an amber pendant in a phylactery, and giving it to me for free, and the subsequent unfortold sexiness that accompanies all of my tells now.
I heart the wriggling suspicion that this was somehow orchestrated to stop my constant bitching about the assembly pieces. Go team Imperian!
You say, "This is much harder than just being a normal person."
I whoever is/was playing the Cleric Guard in Antioch. You completely caught me off guard and it was pretty neat, especially seeing other people get into it. Thank you!

From someone who has never, never, never bashed higher than 93 in a decade of Imperian.
Pardon me while I go collapse now.
It's my miniature tanari! I should be able to suffocate it as I please!

Also, mini chicken and waffles are awesome.
I miss when they pretended to care.

I thought that was fun!

Edit: Qbert is on speed and unplayable, but still.
