At least until april I will have much less free time available and I want to spend what little I have left in other, less time-consuming hobbies. Have fun!

Completely deranged and hilarious character. Well done!

It is obviously not a terribly important bug, and of course I wasn't going to post it in the exploitable bugs section. Actually, it's probably not even worth your time.  ::)

... But the Fancy Cigars' time limit doesn't work, it's always at 120 rounds.

A good example of lawful-goodness: trying to be good, but having to reconcile with the not-so goodness of her Nephezar lords.  A prominent enough character that she will be one of those few that will be remembered for a long time. Well done!

... And obviously heavily inspired by Joan of Arc  ;D

I'm keeping up with this, but the concept will be slightly different due to recent, obvious events. If you got an idle evil, or maybe even neutral pc, feel free to ask for info!

There is no a nice way to say it soo i will just be blunt and honest

I Cheated

i was aware that what i was doing was wrong and in panic i even tried to hide it, so i have no excuse

The DM's were generous to me and with the removal of all my chars from the vault they allowed me to remain in the Server, but still i desire to take a pause from the server as i know my actions are worthy of been banned.

I would like to say a lot of things like " i betrayed the trust put in me" and "I'm sorry" but will be realy ipocrit for me and ripetitive, i knew i was doing something wrong and in my arrogance I thought I could get away with it

So I decided i will leave the server for some time.


I hope when i will return i will be better

We all commit mistakes and admitting publically says a lot about you. I look forward to having you back :)

if i do the entire lowbie circuit and have one bag of dirty yellow ash and like 300 gold to show for it it seems like really bad design. not sure what happened

Are you serious? Then you must have been very, very unlucky. With my current character I have earned like 2000 coins and supplies aplenty before hitting 7, most of which didn't come from the Peerage quests.  My search score is 2, although I rose it a bit with items. To tell the truth, I never found it easier to advance in levels and get gold and supplies than now. And afaik, one of the most rewarding quests is out of inhabited hubs.

Since the Fishmonger group, which my character was going to join, was dropped, I'd like to push forward my own, which is similar. I want to create a gang. Mind you, an evil gang. Not a group of tough-boys-which-life-has-hardened-but-mostly-neutral-or-even-good. As of now, it would only be logical to have one or more gangs present in Ticker Square.

There would definitively be evilness involved: broken knees, protection rackets, drug trafficking, contract killings, etc. Not only standard gang characters will have their place, of course, but it will also be an ideal group for people such as necromancers, infernalists, and the like, who need to hang out with characters who won't give a crap if they raise corpses, summon fiends, or any other kind of unsavory things. Any evil character who needs the assistance of a group to reach their goals will have their place.

Owing to most of Ring 99th and near rings' current lawlessness (pending the result of the upcoming Peerage attack on the Vault), we will not even need to be secret about it. This is one of the (rare?) times in server history where you can be openly evil, which means a different experience than you would have if you belang to a secretive group.

I will not outline the exact objectives, nature, and even name of the group as I prefer them to be defined from character interactions and events. But example of names could be:

- Ticker Boys
- Most Worshipful Guild of Dock Workers / (Insert various other occupation names) - if we ever need some semblance of legal cover. Of course we would likely do anything but what the guild's name indicates.
- Ticker Nostra (okay, no)

Example of objectives, most of which are obvious:

- Set up a protection racket, extorting both pcs and npc merchants and business owners
- Engage in drug trafficking
- Engage in contract killings
- Get faction HQ (obviously not by buying it)
- Either compete with the Knaves, establishing our group as the preeminent evil faction of the server, work with them, or pay them tribute.
- Engage in slavery
- Work for Tchamorrar: being his goons in exchange for scraps.
- Open a casino in Ticker Square (with rigged games of course)
- Ringrunning, to find new areas of operations and a safe place to hide if times get difficult.

I will make an ig annoucenemt soon, but if anyone is interested, has suggestions, etc, feel free to leave a word here, hit me in game, or in discord!

In previous EFU chapters, I remember seeing a lot of quest giver npcs give more or less rewards according to diplomacy checks. In the current one, as far as I remember, there's only one. Let's give options to use persuade, intitimidate, and perhaps even bluff to get better rewards (or perhaps even less on auto-fails)!

Tristan was my frst EFU:COR character, and when I made him, I had no objective or ambition whatsoever besides trying the Sharpshooter perk. So I gave him a basic backstory and kicked him into the world, taking decisions according to how the server changed.



Tristan was a simple farmer of the Moonshae. Like many others, he was infeoded to a noble, who often drafted his vassals into his petty wars, which was somewhat a good thing since it allowed him to get some fighting experience. That said, although he was a talented archer, he still wasn't a professional soldier, which was reflected in his somewhat subpar melee ability.

He often spoke his mind, even if he was fully aware of the consequences, as to him remaining silent in the face of evil would have been unbearable.

Because of this he retained a distrust for nobility in general, and he would have remained a Tickerman forever weren't it for being the victim of a mugging by corrupt blackjacks. He realized that to protect himself, the best bet would be to join a noble house, and he joined the only one who was worthy in his eyes: House Glitt which, after its collective alcohol dishabituation, stood out as the only one in the decadent Peerage that would stand for the weak and defenceless, even having their retainers take a oath to do so.

A screenie about the ongoing Holt II plot. This is common and open knowledge, but for those who did not see the ic forums threads, House Glitt was blackmailed by the patriots into supporting them, else they would reveal the existence of Lord Bernard's mongrel son...



After that, Tristan went to the Mongrelwoods to try to find Holt.... Almost succeeding in actually seeing him, maybe if only he would have passed this persuade check!









Tristan always hoped that Lord Bernard and his son would be reunited, somehow. Although he was disappointed when it looked like Bernard would never accept his lost son, he hoped that he would change his mind when seeing him. Regardless, Tristan understood the suffering Bernard and Mairead had been through, and this sympathy meant that his desire to serve House Glitt only grew because of that. This is how a man without master choose to become a vassal again - but a vassal to a worthy lord he was able to chose.

I want to thank and give kudos to all the characters he interacted with him and made him worth playing. I cannot name you all, although special thanks must go to DM Dillusionist, and Glittfellows CaptLars, Grix, and Glyph!

Great character, and although you are understandably sad, think that at least he had an epic death, the kind that most don't have!

Why did Glitt not consider him worthy, by the way?

The Ponds are actually a faction in themselves?

It was nice to have a "good" ol' evil Faerunian faction in the City of Rings. Posing a respectable, even honorable people until things literally blew up. Well done!

o.O

Did I mention he has one very, very powerful advantage which I won't mention because I don't think I should, but this is to suggest this should be seriously looked into because I seriously think this is bugged (And the above post would tend to confirm that imho  ;D)

... Or increase the reward considerably. The description says he rarely wins the bouts but that must have been before he underwent alcoholism therapy since he has --REMOVED BY DM VLAID-- There I was hoping he would be a joke and I ended up burning more supplies than the ones I spent for the previous 3-4 gladiators I challenged, and all this for just 100 xp and 15 miserable prestige points.

Was it a bug??
