Ain't all its cracked up to be... you have no protection whatsoever, just a step above a commoner... technically, since you are a potential troublemaker... and other troops will automatically see yours as an enemy and look to engage...
Also, gold income, probably all you can do is loot... and that ain't looked at too kindly.

If I may suggest, make arrangement to temporarily administer an estate for a lord as you head for your destination...

In other news...
I heard tell that in Aurvandil, their religion is actually more along the lines of 'God King'.  Extreme version of Divine Mandate, without the pesky detail of a God you can't see.  So they apparently might tolerate other Monarchies, a bit more then the rest of the types of governments out there, perhaps even befriend em.

Yep!

Have fun getting captured and executed even though you're not banned!

Rogue status is very deliberately not fun in BattleMaster. You're not supposed to remain rogue for any significant length of time, you're supposed to join a realm and, y'know, participate.

Actually, can adventurers use them as well?

No.

How long do we get before rouge status? I'm still around 56 hours travel time away from my destination  :-\

This game looks interesting, but I have a question: is roleplaying mandatory on every island or on Dwilight only?

I just want to be sure before starting.

Seems like Dwilight is the only serious roleplay island. The rest, from what I hear, are more relaxed about it.

However, even in Dwilight you can send and receive out-of-character messages, though of course your own character can't react to them.

Thx, Dwilight was ruled out right from the start.
Nothing against good roleplayers, but I can't stomach all the 'sir' and 'my liege' when the average internet gamer isn't even able to properly spell 'there' and 'their'.

It's definitely an interesting contrast :P

Let me say as someone who has a noble on Dwilight - (and trying very hard not to be too biased here) - I don't see very much of this in the roleplays.  Even the OOC communications are solid.  The ONLY time I've ever seen a slip up is when the player is not a native English speaker -and even then it's so minor as to be barely noticed.  (And really -have to give the player some respect for playing a game that's not in their native language!)

Just saying - if the question of spelling and grammar is your hangup for coming to Dwilight, you're missing out. (Not to be confused with "UR", "your" or "yer", heh.)

Pity about adventurers not being able to use the scrolls. But another trade item (with strategic use) is a great idea anyway. Plus a little bit of RP application for adventurers can't be bad. Even if being labelled a necromancer isn't necessarily a helpful thing.

Oh, and my Beluaterra adventurer got wounded finally,  just before a shopping expedition. On average he could probably make 60-90 gold a month at the rate he's going, which is pretty good for a "commoner". Assuming he doesn't get injured regularly.

The point of this? I made another one. On Dwilight. That randomly started in Luria Nova. I'm back baby!

Please be nice to Markos. He'll try not to RP anything if you leave him alone

Can't access my adventurer in Dwilight - other servers having this problem too?

It's not just Dwilight; adventurers are broken right now.

I assume it was about cod tendies and an austerity-caused crunch in the supply of good boy points.

Code changes in progress means a lot of things are suddenly not working, that's normal - report the bugs and they'll be fixed real quick. :-)
