Dark Elves

[Drizzlin]

You've actually proved my point, which was stories about one good dark elf does not start a trend of holding hands with every dark elf people see.

You and I have always been on that same page Dorg =)

on the off point, like I said, do what you need to do with My PC. for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, thus, I was prepared.  anyhow...


*Plods off to grabs a fire suit, water hose, and a couple wet blankets and heads out to quell the fiery thread*

An open mind is like a fortress with its gates unbarred and unguarded.

you know, I think Minerva has a quote about this... heh.

Apologies for bringing up an old topic, but I think things are turned around a bit. The one person that tries to call out the dark elf is now the 'bad guy' and the 'trouble maker'. Everyone wants to be friends with a dark elf or "give them a chance".  She has ran with one until someone announces his name. Then she has to say something. She is not one to hold back. Then she gets, "Do we have to do this now?" or "He is fine." or even "Can we all just get along?" Emry ends up leaving the party because everyone defends the dark elf.

Who has become the outsider now?

I think a lot of the ownerships falls upon the dark elf player and not necessarily the other players. S/he knows at character submission it will not be easy to get into a party.

I have to give Ni'haer/Gelooo so kudos. When he is threatened or called out, he leaves when he is casted out. However, and I agree, if the party accepts and defends him once he is uncovered, he should stay.

And what's funny, an hour later, everyone is back together again like nothing has happened.

*grumbles about how he never got away with that... and something about having 30 different costumes at one time*

I think that when dealing with dark elves, they should not be afraid of us.  We should be AFRAID of them.  A dark elf is on the surface.  The first kind of dark elf you find as an NPC hunting is 16+lvl.  They are terror.  They are horror.  they will take your level 1-10 character aside, one-on-one, and rip them apart and eat their entrials.  Storm of Vengeance.  Finger od death.  Spell resistance.  baby eating.  Level 15-20?  You could take one, more than three?  come on, I see you lure them in the caves!  So this entire thing about people running up and suddenly having +50 morale checks in telling them to leave parties or areas... is kind of metagaming.  We KNOW we can take them. Floaty text syndrome!.  But realistically... if you see a dark elf on the surface, shouldn't you flee?

Funny, how people pester and try to arrest PC dark elves.  And then when milara or an NPC dark elf of any type comes along with an impossible over their head, then we suddenly do quests for them.  I'm just saying...

If we persecute them because they are to be feared, then if there is no fear of them, what's the point?  "oh but I am such a wreck-butt adventurer, I have fought 10,000 giants, I will kill them ALL on sight..."  When I see somebody who really couldn't survive a trip with Bjorn to hunt dark elves while *using him as cover* suddenly growing will saves of +20 when a PC dark elf is about, I start to wonder.  if you're not Argali or Bjorn or a group of 15+ers or better, then what the heck are you doing running around pointing "he's a dark elf! oooh, nasty dark elf!  boogie boogie?"  No... you should RUN.  Unless you have a very low wisdom or intelligence score, and TYPICALLY charge in and try to attack foes way over your head.  battlerager vs. dark elf of any level?  Godspeed, vorax be with you, CHARGE!  most other folks?  Flee to the town guard and rally THE TOWN.  if the reason you are thwarting them is that they are deadly as sin, the bane of all life, and worlds crumble beneath their wrath... then at least roll with the pretext!

*salutes Emry who did just that. Run to the townguard!*

Truth.

Well, unless you want to bow down and ask that the dark elf make you its slave. :p That's always an option.

All i have to say is grenna hates all dark elves adn will attack them on sight. Whether she can beat them or not...she will do everything she can to hunt and kill them.

She attacked alantha once (lvl 20 +) at the time when she was only lvl 3. And if you want to see her go off just mention the words dark elf to her adn adn youll see what happens!

At least, when i get done moving nad get a new internet connection an stuff.

Nothing like arager witha grudge for some fun and exciting entertainment!
