You could probably do it--and do it well--in plat. If ya cleared it with folks ahead of time there would be plenty willing to RP it with you.

The only thing you Would have to deal with would be the auto-lock from killing 2 people. That still works over there. But like I said, if you cleared it with folks, you would be very unlikely to be reported.

there was someone who did an excellant job as a villian there a number of years ago, who was a paladin over here. and that was Torque d'Sade.

>>But wait what am I saying you don't want to go to TF is because the way you want to rp will get you walk faster than you can say mother..gotcha

Mother.

Number one if you tried to get together a little hurt crew of people that came after someone to "walk" them if you think for a moment that there would be people that would come to the aid of the "villian". Remember, where there is one there are others that don't follow the path of goodness. What you are saying therefore equates to the majority of trash that comes out of your mouth. Which in effect is crap. If you want to have a conflict then by god lets have one, but not in here. I am fairly certain that this board is meant for the spreading of ideas on how to Roleplay a villian. Not for some petty trash talking coming from some wannabe scholar.

>Trying to convince people to join the dark side and over throw a government. Or hold a city hostage. The ultimate thing I would love to do is take over the Mentory Mansion and hold soem mentors hostage until a group of highly skilled paladins come and take us out. There are countless ways to RP some sort of evil without killing. The problem is things never stay RP. Most of the time people report for harrasement or report for whatever.<

Absolutely, there are countless ways to RP evil but I also feel that the games boundaries and the general makeup of the game have created an population of heroes all trying to get a piece of the spotlight. DR has created a kind of Pavlov's dog type of reaction in players where anything even remotely evil or dark in nature surfaces, and everyone and their grandmother is out to put a stop to it. Now granted you may find an empath or two around saying "Stop the violence" but generally speaking, just like in most stereotypical movies and books that have an evil or dark side to them, evil is known to undo itself.

So in most stereotypical cases in good vs. evil, either the evil is so powerful as to balance out the greater number of good or the number of evil people or things is greater but good finds a way to overcome it by either turning evil against itself or finding a weakness somewhere because evil is often known as thinking itself too powerful to think about some of the minute things that could lead to its destruction. No matter which way you look at it though, because of the way DR works and it's people think, its just not possible to be evil unless you want a quick trip to the void.

For the most part I can agree with how evil would undo itself due to the values or lack thereof that it follows. Greed, hate, envy, etc. As just because someone comes along thats just as greedy as you are doesn't mean that there is an instant love connection. Because distrust is among the values or lack thereof that are inclusive of being evil.

Dark on the other hand is a different entity altogether. Because being dark in nature simply defines a person that does not always look at things optimisticly. While someone may see the sunrise and want to smell the roses, someone else might find more comfort when night falls and the business of the day is at rest. They usually don't give a damn about who thinks what is morally correct or how people percieve them. I would tend to believe that dark natured characters do what they personally deem to be the right action for any given situation rather than say an evil person who may kill for the enjoyment, or a good person who would do whatever it took not to kill someone. The problem is that also would define just about any snert who runs around doing whatever they please. I have usually found though that dark natured characters are driven by personal hardship.

I think there should be a Dark based order that may be smart enough to realize that a group of people who all of the sudden come out of nowhere after who knows how long, to pronounce themselves the ruling nobles of Elanthia is rediculous. Whom realize that the gods have aspects to balance light AND darkness. Whom are able to look beyond the surface of any given situation for the true nature of the issue or problem or person.

Just my thoughts.

>I ended up dead alot but I always got my licks in.

I seem to remember dragging you once...and getting ten whispers of, 'He's evil! Run away!'. Always amused me.

If you ever need a punching bag...Kilan's usually in Crossing. Except for right now, since he's(well...was..) defending HomeTown #4(RiverHaven).

Well, if you ever decide to, find me, I would be more then willing to dump my two cents in and see what could get off the ground.

It doesn't sound that bad.. perhaps it would be hard, but not impossible such as other goals we undertake these days. Interesting..

I always have someone with the letter A-Z out to get me. Most just have failed. Some actually do.
