0 , 1 , 0 . I'm all for RP, this doesn't change anything about newbie chat if that is the point of this albeit short piece of mediocre RP. Vanisse 
0 , 0 , 0 . Haha. The funny thing is I was testing religiontalk at the time, but we both ended up playing along :) Glad you enjoyed. Vanisse 
0 , 0 , 0 . @Lorne did you mix me up with Vevier? ... what does this have to do with newbie chat? Lorne 
0 , 0 , 0 . No no, not directed at you Vanisse. Directed at whoever posted the log. kento 
0 , 0 , 0 . @Lorne I am not sure why you're in such a negative mood? We have few enough logs as it is for you to crap all over a small RP one.

'Vanisse', Goddess of Luck
Alignment: Neutral Good
I was not serious. This is shit ass roleplay. Goddess of luck eats gnomes? What the fuck is going on. I am going to take a shit in her offering bowl
Vanisse 
1 , 0 , 0 . It's a long story... probably goes back to the days of Artos and Calram. Not that it matters at this point. Vanisse is known for being "a bit eccentric". Not everything in this game has to be about death, doom and destruction. Vanisse 
0 , 0 , 0 . On that note we'll be adding more flavor things related to religious reputation. So you can look forward to that. (feel free to put a dung in the offering bowl, perfectly fine) mauve 0 , 0 , 0 . Ok but the next time an elf paladin of Vanisse murders a gnome in cold blood and laughs about it like its a joke im linking to this log when they COMPLAINT about it. Vanisse 
1 , 0 , 0 . You'd think that after all these years, there would be veritable hordes of followers doing this very thing.
Ergorion 
4 , 0 , 0 . Dude. Vanisse and gnome-eating is legendary AR lore. If you haven't been in the pit of Vanisse's stomach stuck with a MOOOOING minotaur then you truly haven't lived.
[reply to mauve]And of all the years of plaintive gnomes complaining of Vanisse eating them, not once was she perturbed. *sob*
(Also, not serious.)
I could see other strange requests, like Stryth asking that a water cube be sacrificed at the altar or a lightning sword be placed upon it. Perhaps a shadow god may request eternal darkness cast at an opposing altar, from a faithful Etheath.

Vanisse 
3 , 0 , 0 . 1. Why don't you make a better log? I'm sure a lot of us would love to read a longer more thorough RP log. I'm being completely serious here. I miss reading RP sessions and am sure I've missed a lot of great stuff you guys have been doing.
[reply to maeve]2. As mentioned, this was probably 30 seconds of interaction caused by testing religiontalk and someone actually responding to it. So it's not really a highlight of anything. Maybe you think it is because the player happened to post it and there haven't been other RP logs. Don't worry. You don't need to be so offended.
