Title: Elven Warband
Post by: KreShar on July 14, 2009, 10:17:06 AM
If you're thinking of making an elf, now is a great time! Though this elf group is new, we're already working toward some pretty awesome goals and plots. Alot of what were doing is purely player driven and this is a great chance to get involved if you want to play an elf.

Elves have an awesome history and culture that is fun to roleplay. There are many natural enemies on the island of Ymph (Drow slavers, orcs, the Rot, Dwarves, etc), so expect alot of fun conflict and adventure.

Our numbers are slowly increasing but it'd be awesome to have a couple more new players. We're basically looking for any elf who follows the ways of the Seldarine.

Dwarves, eh? We'll see about that, oh yes we will...

And what LiS means to say is, "We welcome the opportunity to interact in a pleasing and engaging manner." ;)

I endorse the forming and roleplaying of an elven "warband". So jump on board - now is a good time.

Even though I'm playing a significant role in a group to the extreme contrast of this one, for anyone silly enough to listen to my opinion I doubly endorse the elves.

Five years ago, KreShar did something awesome that hooked me on NWN and RP servers (although he doesn't remember!). I'm not sure I should be thanking him or cursing him for the addiction, but I can say that his goals are always creative and enjoyable, so if you're looking for some way to make Awesome, then do something crazy-- do a little research on elves, create an elven persona, and then roll up a NON-human (gasp.) and rock out.

Dwarves can crush you silly. Good luck on your warband.

Are Half-elves welcome?

Post by: KreShar on July 15, 2009, 02:51:42 AM
They'd have to really prove themselves. A lot of elves see half elves as inferior

Let me ask you something about elves.

Did you know some go through reincarnation? Turning into animals when they die?

Did you know when they are about to die of old age, they meditate for days on end, and then they share their memories with fellow elves, then their soul transcends to Arvanaith, the elven lands of the dead? Or if they should die a violent death, it is generally held that an elven soul cannot transcend without the assistence of a priestess, or priest, of Sehanine Moonbow?

I found a wonderful insight in which gives you a detailed view into elven culture, their belief, and sayings. As the longest lived races, they are the most complex, and to be honest, frustrating races. They are chaotic good, yet tend to be cold and arrogant toward outsiders, they live in civilized societies with laws, and they all tend to obey them.

When you make an elf, I strongly encourage you to read up on their deities, races, this forum alone holds wonderful information on their history, and races. But if you are looking toward a more...religious slant on their faith, here you are.

Hey I think this sounds like a great opportunity to make an elf.  I have been wanting to trial a bard or barbarian elf for a while.

Never trust an elf!

Our group has really been growing nicely. We could still use another elf or two. If anyone has been looking to make an elven mage, that'd fit into our group perfectly.

Seriously, though. Arcane elves are definitely a top priority, but we also seem to have a lack of rangers and barbarians as well.

Just want to add that I rolled up my pc last week'ish for this here group and already I have had a serious blast.  Really great group of players, great RP, interesting character concepts.  Good stuff all around.

Seconded. They're an awesome group of RPers. Get in on it.

Say, next new character made who wants to join send me a PM. I need someone to do the low level quests untill i can quest with the others.

Post by: RevengeIsADish on September 11, 2009, 11:11:56 AM
Despite a few setbacks, the Keepers are still alive and kicking. We've got plots, we've got drama, we've got shamelessly long quest trains. So what're you waiting for? Make that Elf you've always wanted to play.

Post by: Wern8 on September 11, 2009, 11:31:44 AM
EFU:A is actually quite an Elf friendly setting and it could use some well played Elven characters and by the way, there is much more to them than just rangers, archers, feeble-looking cowards and the like. Try something different! And please don't ever play an Elf that acts all human-like, learn what they are like, use their deities (it sucks to find Elves with non-Elven deities), etc.

If anyone interested wants to know more about them, feel free to PM me on the forums or ask me on IRC. The same goes for Dwarves too and just about any other races, I rather spend time helping than see some of these races be played wrongly/badly.

I've only seen one other elf so far!  Which tree are you all hiding in?

Check the ruins litter, we leave notices around.  There are quite a few of us but most of us don't hang around the Zig very much.

Post by: Viridian Haze on September 18, 2009, 04:49:54 PM
I have no idea where that is, but I'll wander around and hope I don't fall prey to the things that go bump in the night >.>

Post by: IxTheSpeedy on September 18, 2009, 05:17:32 PM
I'd suggest against that...  I was referring to the forum where we post them...

Stay tuned...

I've met a couple Keepers already, and both in the Ziggurat. Just ask every elf you come across maybe?

Faulker is a half-elf. However, he does not see himself as inferior, and will definetely join this group. Due to his boldness, he'll even try, with time to lead them. By the way... Come on folks, get your pointy ears out and and join us!

Just to let you know this is a really -Great- time to make an elf, because of some IG actions and events the Elves shall be making more of impact to some places, but only if others help to! No seriously this faction needs a few more elves, anything is welcome roll somthing up and try it out.
