This is a non-issue. What's more jarring and causes more "cognitive hurdles in stories and politics and efforts" is PCs building huge sandcastles for a week or two weeks and talking up their efforts and their IC commitment and then suddenly retiring/flaking.

Very well played, and truly living up to the higher standards of RP on EfU! Well done!

Well done!

I wish we'd gotten to interact more.

You still owe me 5,000 groat  >:(

Seriously though. Applause for a -real- villain and a real necromancer, and for achieving one of the few player-driven acts of consequence this chapter, finally waking up Blacksmile where everyone previously had failed. Congrats!

I'm sad to see him go as I knew he had even more in him, this year was better with him in it and I enjoyed our interactions, few and far between as they were. Still, no one can say he didn't live long enough or had a great run already.

Well done, I look forward to seeing what comes next.

I will be relatively scarce for another two weeks more.

A PC I wish I had gotten to interact with.

Aww

Ultimate Orzan!

All your PCs are so great, look forward to your next.

I need to sleep more, so I might be a bit less available.

It depends on your PC's mentality. "Just like in real life", when you do politics or push for a certain agenda, and you enter into a state of implicit or explicit conflict with the goals and interests of others, you will draw hostile attention. Any normal/sane PC in CoR, especially from Ring 99, would be aware of this and would factor it into their considerations. In other words: if your PC is strategic and prudent, they might make sure to have allies or other resources at hand before making their move. A more rash, unwise or zealous PC might go out there and start pushing their objectives without fear or favor. It would be too easy to just say "start conflicting as early as possible, that is what makes the server fun" but I feel like you are asking for a more considered answer and that is definitely mine: do whatever is IC and try to put yourself into the mind of your PC and whatever past experiences or considerations inform their thinking and emotions.

I am back now, somewhat limited but I am able to get IG if anyone needs me. Just ping me on Discord.

Hey everyone. I'll be gone for a while, dealing with a death in the family.

My condolences. Be well.

I am moving apartments and will be busy with that process for a day or three, but hopefully I will be all set by the weekend.
