A wolfshade tries to bite you!

A wolfshade tries to bite you!
AS: +120 vs DS: +113 with AvD: +32 + d100 roll: +84 = +123
... and hits for 12 points of damage!
Jarring blow to your back.
The powerful look leaves you.
The dim aura fades from around you.
You feel less confident.
The light blue glow leaves you.
A white glow rushes away from you.
You feel less secure.
The buzz of thoughts in your mind subsides.

It seems you have died, my friend. Although you cannot do anything, you are keenly aware of what is going on around you...

You mentally give a sigh of relief as you remember that the Goddess Lorminstra owes you a favor.

...departing in 10 mins...

DEAD>

Slowly the world begins to dissolve into a grainy montage of color...

[Purgatory]
You find yourself wandering amidst endless streaming light, and vast nothingness. This place feels torn between two prophecies, each vying for your loyalty.
Also in the room: All the spirits of those who could not choose.
Obvious exits: light and darkness.
>

Time seems to have no meaning as you wander aimlessly amidst the uncomfortable tugging for your attention. Hopelessness washes over dreams you once held like the creeping tide of doom.

In time the Goddess Lorminstra finds you wandering the endlessness of Purgatory and says, "For thy deed, my promise to intercede shall be fulfilled." Taking you by the hand, the Goddess leads you back to mortality...


Suddenly you feel an intense pain scorching your very soul! The world of your past suddenly comes rushing back into your memory. You are quite bewildered by what has transpired, but alive...

Ouch... not a voln member I take it...

I hate it when people walk by and don't stop. This happens a lot on trails between towns due to travel scripts. I also know that a lot of people don't highlight "the body of" thinking it's only good for clerics. Personally I think everyone should have that and the string where you see LK fade (flask/spell and voln are different strings) highlighted.

Having more than two deeds will prevent a one way trip to Purgatory. Having no less than five deeds at all times guarantees you that no one can send you there before you can get to safety or log out, then let the GMs know after things have cooled down.

Ten deeds or more will cover you for most quests or invasions. Twenty deeds means not having to worry for quite a while.

More than twenty deeds means you can be a little bit frivilous and carefree.

Twice, today, I've walked past someone when using a travel script. Twice, today, I've stopped that script and walked back to the deader.

It's not that difficult to do...

No but I meant that a lot of people start the script and switch windows to say read the PC's most recent posts. Sometimes I do it myself. I'll switch to my excel sheet to see what's in my locker in the town where I am headed. I did add a sound to the dead body string so I wouldn't miss one but I can see how others do.

If I'm playing Anticor I will always stop and I take note of who is in the area and if they die I'll go make a quick walk of the hunting grounds.

If I'm playing my rogue and I don't know you I'll let you rot.

A lot of times if it's dangerous for me to stop, I'll get to my destination and/or put out a thought that so and so needs help.

Denial. The first sign of guilt.

Betheny

No guilt here, I have travel scripts and a few spell up scripts but zero hunting scripts.

Now, now. No fighting. This is the General Gemstone topic. Everyone knows there are no disagreements generally allowed in GemStone3!

Maybe Caels will open us a special folder in which we can fight it out with one-liners, eh? :D
