Lartus

Drawing on the power of undeath, you wreathe your hand in black, crackling

energy. With a diabolical laugh, you stiffen your hand and slowly run it down

Septus's chest, splitting it open as you do so. With an expert touch, you rip

apart his innards, causing a maximum of horrifying pain, and, enjoying the

spectacle of Septus writhing and screaming in agony, you rip out his sternum

and drive it through his splayed body, pinning him to the ground to die.

You have slain Septus.

Septus

I'd have got away too, if it wasn't for those meddling kids.

Lartus

V: well at least it wasn't my Arc this time.

Septus tells you, "Man if risca and khizan both go."

You tell Septus, "I'll miss the battles."

Septus tells you, "That'll the end of such a major era of imperian history."

You tell Septus, "Yeah."

You tell Septus, "They were both here from the beginning."

You tell Septus, "The real death of the Gods."

@Khizan, @Risca, #deathOfTheTrueGods

With Khizan deciding to retire as well. I am seriously considering it. I have up to Saturday to decide and it is a very difficult decision.

Septus

You're all going to break my heart.

Where's the damn dislike button? >:P :-q

Khizan

I wasn't going to mention any of this until I put the plans in motion, but since the cat was let out of the bag a bit early and I'd never try to rebag a cat... here goes.

At this point, I feel like I can comfortably say that I have done everything I have ever wanted to do in Imperian and more. I made the Taekyon go anti-magick, way back when, and I made Antioch go away from it many years later. I outlived the Gods. Allied with the Horde. Allied with the Legion. Met awesome Ultrixes and was the Worst Fiance Ever. Met a lot of people, for that matter, and made a lot of good friends.

But I have also reached a point where it feels like I really don't have a whole lot left to do here, and most of the stuff I would want to do is now more hindered by Khizan's past than helped by it. Khizan laughed at the death of the Gods. He made multiple pacts with Urzog. He broke the seals on Legion's plagues. I don't regret any of it, but it is a weighty kind of history to be stuck with, and it really sort of limits what you can reasonably get away with in the future. Anything I want to do with the character in the future is overwhelmed by what he's done in the past.

So I just feel like it's time to put Khizan away and let him go out on a high note. So this is my plan. Retiring Khizan will give me roughly 19-20k credits when everything is accounted for. I'm probably going to drop about 75% of that on Achaea. New game, new people, and lots of things I haven't done. It's interesting and I'm having fun. And hey, that rhymed. I wasn't planning on that, but I'll take it.

The other 25% I'm gonna sit on for a while and then I'll probably come back here with it after a bit. 4-5k credits will make a brand new character with enough left over for a few nice toys, but without Khizan's history and without the overbearing artifacts that helped make the game so top-heavy. Should make a fun little alt.

It's been a lot of fun, everyone(that rhymed again!), but I've been here a looooong time and I just need a bit of a change for now. I'll be back again later, I'll just have fewer toys.

Strangely poetic that, in the end, it was Khandava that killed Khizan.

From: Garryn
To : Everyone
Subj: Special shards

Carrying more than one special shard (as per SHARD SPECIALS) now causes periodic damage. The more of
these you have, the worse the damage gets.

Penned by my hand on the 8th of Aequitas, in the year 114 AM.

Dimitri

I'm imagining Septus sitting somewhere, laughing maniacally at his pile of shard psuedo-artifacts going POWER OVERWHELMING!! while lightning crashes omniously in the background, Garryn sees this and goes 'Hm, guess i have to do -that- after all.' He then flips a switch and Septus's diabolical shard fueled laughter turns into a Wilhelm scream of horror.

Garryn afterwards:

Jules

I imagined Septus as Cookie Monster being told "you have to share, or each additional cookie you eat will give you raging indigestion", and Septus shrugging and going "om nom nom nom nom". Sort of like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLqL-G-i6_k

Tikal suddenly appears, accompanied by wild cracking of energy.

A dark figure comes gliding towards you with a high pitched chirp. A bat furiously beats its wings to reach Tikal, dropping a letter in her hands before swooping over your head and disappearing into the shadows.

Tikal is quickly carried up into the skies.

Post Monolith battle:

You tell Septus, "Can you um... Die a little faster... Please."
You tell Septus, "You take so long for an outrider."
Septus tells you, "I will endeavour to try."

Holding you to that, @Septus.

Been playing monk for a while now, enjoying m'self. There's things I get from a mechanical perspective, like armor for instance.

My humble opinion on monks wearing full suits of leather armor (or any armor beyond limb armor really)

You tell Desert Wolf, Farah @Laeka Agarwaen, the Head Shrinker, "Prepare to be

With sepulchral tones, Laeka tells you, "Not by you."
