Off-topic Discussion / Re: The Passing of Diz-e
November 12, 2021, 09:56:41 AM
I only knew Diz for a brief time, but he wrote the most beautiful and gentle letters to my elf Thaltas from his Lorist, which are now treasured memories. He was always so willing to engage and make time for new & old players. Outside of NWN, he must have been an equally shining personality, and I am thankful that he did not suffer in his last moments.  Rest in peace, friend.

If it is not a huge trouble for the DM team, I would humbly ask that a monument to honour Diz's memory be created in-game - in some way that is befitting the setting, of course.

Screen Shots & Obituaries / Re: The Domina Lucretia
August 02, 2020, 12:18:10 PM
It is with regret that I never had enough time to get to know Lucretia better, but that would rely on a few factors - one, that I am as yet relatively new to the server; and two, that I play an elf/sub-human, which meant that getting near the Peerage was always risky business.

However, Duna was always ever gracious in obliging the rare meeting between Thaltas and Lucretia.  He first became acquainted with her after escorting her through the flaming streets from a ruined tower, where she quite casually introduced herself to him.  Lucretia's famous charm was not lost on Thaltas - she left enough of an impression that he decided, quite uncharacteristically, to contact her after she sent out a drunken Sending apologising for the lack of tournaments following her grief over the loss of a significant other.

They sat for a while, over a cup of wine, whereupon Thaltas attempted to impart elven wisdom to aid in her grieving process. I am not sure, to this day, how much of it made sense to Lucretia, but I was grateful she spared the time at all. I think he cared for her in some distant way, and then again he would find a small opportunity to display that concern a second time by sneaking into the Peerage to gift her a potion of Rage at her request. At the back of my mind, I always wondered, out of curiosity, if Lucretia would have eventually attempted to manipulate Thaltas the way she handled her business dealings, although I tried to treat her with the unshakeable honesty every sun-elf worth his salt would!

Such an odd, and brief, and slightly uncomfortable relationship, but I'm sure he'd come with flowers if only he knew where she was buried.

Once again, thanks to Duna for such a wonderful character, and here's looking forward to your next one.

I'm not sure if this is intentional or not, but it seems the item descriptions for Potion of Entropic Shield and Potion of Illumination are the same. Each are promising to make one appear more beautiful, being a favourite of the nobility.
