I opened up my inventory and and scroll through my items, then I clicked on a healing potion and put it on the ground. It was t1 healing potion, capable to heal only 10 HP. I pushed it away from me, my attention was quite clear. It's only a {cursed} game, I don't need it anyway. After that I stayed on the ground, showing no motivation to move from my position. I want to be in the end of the line, less eyes and questions from everybody...

At last, good luck!

What about lowering the sp for non combat skill to make them attractive?

It is too early to say something, I personally don't felt any change yet. I would like to know more about the things you are working or dealing with.
Something like what Lycan did "we though on x y z, we are working on a b c. What is your idea and etc". The whole idea start out because players felt they are not being listen (and not because "the system wasn't perfect" like some here think), and I don't think that everyone should come to PM and ask on what are you working right now, players have some great ideas and it should be wide open.

About rule changing, notice that if you are changing a major rule it will be nice to get some pre-notice-time. Sometime some rules change in the middle of everything and we need to work around it and it less fun.

 

I look at her crying, Pathetic. I felt no sympathy for her any more. She could play with her child somewhere else, to me she is dead. I insert my sword back and walk away to the town. Without even saying goodby, left Yuki and her child for there destiny they should get.

Loneliness, pure Loneliness.

~ Rowan left the thread ~

she don't want to close her eyes. Ho well, I will kill her before she will know it. I wake to her and pull my sword to the back. "mother" she said. I stopped,  turned to the direction the girl looks at. Yuki. So it's true, she is her mother. You got lucky girl, but your mother have a lot to explain... 

-out of town-

I pulled out my sword, couldn't make it more obvious.  "Now I just need to clear the path. Now, close your eyes and when you will open them again, MAMA will be near you" In heaven. I waited for her to close her eyes before I will stab her. I had bleeding effect, so one hit should be enough to finish it off. I didn't want her to see it, it all be over before she would even knew who stroke her.  

When Khrysaor he called me by my username I felt a shivers all over my body, like this word alone had the power to awake something my mind tried to forgot. This guy didn't threaten me, he was nothing, maybe that's why I found myself listening to to him. His plan was logical enough, but like the rest of them, like anyone else, they all seems to have something that I lack, or lack something that I had. That thing that made them all act like what they are doing was really important, and everyone accept that, everyone knew that except me. I always thought it's because I'm not so emotionally attached to my character, but sometimes I felt that too without knowing how or why, and that's freaked me out.

Everything was logic on his plan, except the part that offered me to cooperated to to be killed. How dare he, if allena wasn't here I would kill him, I would kill them all. Saying that to myself knowing that I would probably won't do anything just made my pain stronger. I gotta to make it stop, I gotta to do something. I walked to the edge of the cave as they continued talking, as far as I can without really exit the cave, farther from all of them. I bury my head in the snow on the wall and I released a HUGE SHOUT. Because the snow blocked most of the sound, it was quite to everyone else. I hit the wall with my hand over and over again. 

What's happening to me? it just a game, RELEASE. It doesn't matter what happened, it doesn't matter that you are not remember it. IT'S JUST A GAME. Nothing special happened here anyway. Remember, YOU ARE NOT INTERESTED ANYONE, and NO ONE SHOULD INTEREST YOU. Just go with them, finish this nightmare and get out.

It's took some heavy breaths. I was able to find a quiet point inside, although I wasn't sure for how long. Heard the "leader" saying something about our last party members. I clicked on the menu to open up my party tab, an empty list stared back at me. Of course, I was been kicked out. Didn't expect less. Than walked slowly toward the group and set near Allania. I didn't know her very well, but compared to others she was the closest person to me right now . "My build is similar to Ratatosk. I can deal damage and I can fight, but I won't protect anyone and cannot be relying on. So don't try to defend me or counting on me in this mission. Bu at least, I won't slow you down..."  

I Ignored her. Have nothing to said, but she began to become really annoying. "Well isn't that convenient." I left her hair "You said that you have no one in the world, no one know about you? even not your mother?" I thought about that for second...and found a solution that will suite all of us. Well...Almost.

 Changing plans. I couldn't Hid my twisted smile "Come. Your mother is out of town"

I made all the way back to the shop. I didn't believe him, but as long as I will get my item it wasn't metter. I entered the shop and surprised to notice a small box with my item in it. the box opened when I touched it and I was able to put it in my inventory without any problems. "You idiot. You shouldn't gave it to me free, now you never get anything in return!" I shout, but only the air answered me. "You will hate me and regret that in your future!". Again....silence. "What did I did? did nothing wrong. You should hate me! hate me! stop be good to me you piece of [course]." I felt bit wet in my eyes, and without any more shouting I left the shop...

"Ho yea" I said "Trust worthy, that was the word that I looked for." I said to Khrysaor, then pretend to notice that Greg Baxen is there, it was obvious that I ignored him on purpose "You know it's funny that this word came for KoB member. After the murder they did...Remind me, out of the two PK's there, both of them were made by KoB members or only one?"

Then he smiled and walk away from them.

I ignored the guy who offered the escape plan. The rage glow from my eyes when I looked on everyone pointing their swords at me. What do they want from me? THIS TIME I didn't do anything. The white boy who claim to be the leader and the other puppets who fake it to back him up. You all wanna fight? you all think you can kill me? one AOE in your condition and you will be all turned to dust!

Then Allania walked between us. This girl again. She want to put an end to all of it, but I'm not done yet. 

"Him? Who made him the leader anyway" I called to Allania, "shut up and go play with the fire." I pointed that part to white haired kid.  "Work together?" I shoot to Nikodemus and Hydra "I don't give a damn about you, you are nothing to me. It just happened that I'm with you in the same [cursed] hole. There is only one person here that I will risk my life
for, and that's only because I won't be able to look at myself after again."

"And you", I said to Itaro "Why are you letting the others protect you, don't you know stand by yourself? walking away instead of handling it like a man. What's happened? did I hurt your self respect? your honor? your wife?!"

I want to continue, but I actually felt like an idiot. She pulled out my fighting spirit ,made me feel like a child waving a strike more than anything else. She tried to end it quickly, her talent of routing problems away instead of facing them with all her might, was one of the reasons who made her one of the few people I admired in this nightmare. And also the one who made me hate myself the most. 

I heard all of them out while getting closer to them. Until now I didn't heard anything special, Ronin was Ronin as always, I don't think that anyone knew what he smoke. Delta, Rain and Khrysaor look like a lower level players that I never met. I didn't catch the name of the others. "You should be careful to who you are giving your names out, people tend to stay away for high level players these day. Especially players like you". I gave them a weird smile "Ideally, you should party only three of you, taking a far distance from anyone who is level is too high compare to you", I twisted my smile a bit "who know who will be the next psycho who will use others to make a name from himself. It could be anyone, even one of us"

It all start nicely, I walk out of floor four and slain some monsters, even took some loot and material. Doing something active wasn't my type, but from some reason I felt productive. But then it start again, the pain in my scruff, buzzing like an angry fly. It became stronger over the time and to the point that I couldn't ignored. The max point reached when a monster surprised me from behind a second before I slain her. Than something triggered and everything became black again.

I found myself my town with half of my HP. Well that the reason why I don't go outside often, or doing anything at all. It pissed me off. I start walking toward the center of the town slowly, I think I am at floor one. Being in the edge gave my just a general idea about the floor number. I was so angry that I just ask for something to pull it off.

Great, from the yelling inside it sounds like they already encounter something. I already entered to cave lose a significant amount of my sight. I should let him bleed a bit, he rush so fast forward so it's probably what he asked for.  Then I realized that Yuki was with him to. I rush farther inside the cave pulling my sword out, "Move away!" I push Yuki aside and called out my sword skill and colored it with a soft purple line. My strike followed after Ronin sword and complete missed the target. I managed to see a flying creature raised up and scream in thin voice "He is calling for help! beware!"

Rowan 40/40| 8/10 EP | 4 DMG | 12 MIT | 2 EVA | + bleeding effect

I teleport back to the first town after a long day, too much happened in such a small time. After I long of negotiations I believed I was finally able to get myself a full set. It took a lot of cols and money, but what you can do....all the shop owners are the same, and from same reason none of them seems to like me. Most of them are smiling to me most of the time, but sometime I get this weird feeling that they want me to get out of their shop. Maybe its just my imagination. 

I walked to the center of the town without really thinking about anything, then I notice a surprisingly high number of high level players (compare to floor one) hanging around the center. They scared I thought. I heard some frantic whispers about the last events in floor 15, maybe the are all here to watch the low levels around. I walked closer to the group and lend my ear, hoping to hear something interesting.

I walk to the town with her. I was quite, non of us said anything. In the middle of our way I grub her closer to my, hold her with my left hand. Somehow, I tried to ignore the feeling that something isn't right, the little voice at my head that told me that if we start bad there is no way that we end up so well a while after. I kept ignoring that voice until we reached the town,  then I kissed her for a quick goodbye. I took a last look in her eyes before I turned away, all I wanted is to see them red again. 

Thread close:

1 sp and 400 col for each. 

Great, he already start working on that. I straighten his clothes  and walk toward the exit, not caring about the owner at all. "My name is Rowan, just make sure to P.M. me after you will done and how much it will cost, unless you don't want a payment". There is no way he will charge cheep on that, but I couldn't be so choosy, there isn't much artisans around. Then, without asking his name I walked out and close the door strongly behind me. Shop owners....they are all the same.

OOC: 

I was quite amused. A wild smile spread on my face, but it slowly fade away when I realized her words. "Wait....do you said, she is you, mother?" It was hard to catch this idea "I thought her whole family died and she had no one in this world." I said, more to myself then her. Yes, I remembered that she told me about the story that they kill her family, the she killed 100 men.

I felt betrayed, had no one in the world. She lie to me. I had no one in the world. 

I went to the girl and grab her hair  "Come" I pulled her from her hair after me. "We are going to give you mother a visit".

I filled up the page again "Yes of course I am very sorry" it doesn't sound that I am sorry at all "I meant evasion. Now can you PLEASE tell me how much col it going to cost me. Of course, only if you think that you are capable of crafting such piece of art." It was really hard for me to try being nice. I really tried to, because somehow I had a talent to create a bad first impression without even trying.

When I look at her she definitely seem like a short version Yuki, she was identified to her in a scary way. Now that I look at her, I can't stop see Yuki's face. Maybe she is her sister? Didn't knew Yuki still got a family left. Anyway, I am not a babysitter, I don't have time for it. "Not sure...What if I do? You know, I have a short memory, but my sword always remember who she stubbed" I pulled out my sword and asked her "Dingus, did you stubbed Yuki?" my sword react with a purple shine of confirmation. "Ho, what do you know, it seems I do."
 

They all ignore me. I wouldn't expect less from Yuki but Ronin? He is a blacksmith, he should know about armor and stuff.  I saw all just walk toward the cave, from when did I became the voice of reason? "Fine, but don't expect me to protect you. I will just laugh on your stubbornness when you will lose your character". I accept the party request.  Another guy join us as well. I didn't know his name, but I wasn't so interested in him anyway. I walk after them until we reached a huge black cave. I entered inside and answered both of them "She is NPC, she will probably won't answer you. And the monster are NPC too, they are not attracted to the sound, but to the movement" I wasn't sure from where I knew this stuff "Speaking of which, you probably don't want to walk to far from us.." Said to Ronin. It was probably to late.

I stop my walking. The brat can speak."Did you dare to speak to me?" I catched the girl from her shirt and raised her to my eyes "Your mama? I'm  scared. You are lucky girl, you won I straight ticket to the heaven" 
Then her eyes changed. I dropped her in surprise,  she reminds me someone else in the exact same situation. A thoughts about a lonely little girl filled my head "Get out of here, you are lucky to stay alive"

I teleport myself to floor eight especially for this artisan shop, they were so rare that it was funny. after hours of walking on floor one town I heard that there is a shop there around floor two. But I was kicked from it so fast that I was shocked. "What's the problem with her..."weird shopkeeper.

Then I heard there is one more shop at floor eight.  Finally found it, I entered the shop and walked straight to the seller "Hey, I need something that will give me accuracy and mitigation. The accuracy should be extremely good so it should be a perfect item. Just want to mention that I don't have a lot of money and nor any materials to bring with me so don't ask me to. Please tell me that you have something, or ask the shop owner if he can help me" 

"Yes, that why want to keep you safe" I answered her in the same sarcastic voice. Listen to me, please listen. "How you will come with us? naked? You don't have any good item on yourself. You will be eaten alive." There were a better ways to tell her that, I cursed myself for talking before thinking again . "Look, don't be stubborn, its all about stats and items and you know it. This game has nothing to do with your experience..."

I bet she didn't up any of her skills at all. But I didn't want to say that near Ronin, I hope he will back me up.

"And don't ever come back to here!"  I run out of the shop "I never heard about so [cursed] shop owner that never accept money, now tell me how much you want and do as I ask!" I duck when a dagger past right above me "Ok ok i'm leaving!" freaking shop owner with their agendas, they should get the money and do as I asked. I should bring them materials or extra money for anything! not that I have a lot of them. 

I wake on floor one, then I bumped into a small brat "Watch where you're going, punk!" I grab his head and throw him aside. Didn't even bother to see who he was.
