Hey. Very old roleplayer here. As I have lost my way to roleplay recently (World of warcraft) I only have my weekly D&D session to keep me going.

I find myself re-visiting this place knowing it's not the roleplay I left all the years ago but I'd do want to ask a small favour it's selfish but if you ever interacted with one of my characters or just remember a talk you had with me below would you mind sharing?


Names

Characters

Joshua Karlak (Oh god )
Marcus Velox (Think that was his last name)

I'll check back every once in and while and hopefully can return the favour and say if I remember you and any fond memory we had


Ps - I am glad people still find joy in roleplaying on Runescape

I'll be honest I can't remember much of Marcus. Expect endless sparing sessions with Lorelie and Ren and one Mission into Canfis, Oh and I was given dragon stone (e) bolts or something IC but I didn't like it OCC so never used them!

Guessing we crossed paths cause of Amaranth cause I think that was Lor's family? and I seem to recall Darius cross but I think that's just forum memory

Holy cr*ap, Josh!

Of course I interacted with you - hard not to interact with your main character's husband haha. The Claws of Peace war will forever be one of my favourite roleplay interactions on any game and certainly the Nourom's golden age (despite the evident cringe that accompanies any group of awkward teenagers using a video game to escape reality haha).

I hope you're doing okay! I myself wander back to these forums almost every summer just to see if anyone is still around / how people are getting on, but I haven't actually played the game in a long while, nor roleplay anymore - at least, not in MMOs - nowadays I use DnD for that fix haha.

I tried WoW for a bit but am instead fully invested in FF14 online nowdays. I heartily reccommend it if you haven't tried it - the main story is great and the community is lovely.

No, the Nourom are not returning.

Karlak, you old sponge! We used to kidnap people together! I was Octavian. Good to hear from you. I infrequently check this place out of some strange nostalgia - glad I came to see this. ^_^

Good morning to all of you, who remember, love, regret, and miss. I was a bit of a joker here. I was the one who was always so full of shit. My head was always elsewhere while we were always typing together. I saw all sorts of nastiness, but the aching smiles that came with them. A lot of us made missteps, but maybe not as bad as we had thought.

Some of you never got to see my face, but eventually a few of you got to hear my voice. I was misleading when I started, because I the idea of roleplay was always the way for people to find it, at least in words. I had a long time doing math, but you were always the words holding me close to you when I had that extra time. My head always tried to put it together all at once.

It's led to some unfortunate things lately, and while I have those regrets that last for however long they choose to stay, I'm afraid I've had too many names here to really say. I think I was part of the problem, though, always trying to play the mechanics of the game at the end when I started losing sights of your voices. I never knew how to really move on and care for this place and these memories and fresh stories, so the updates kept coming. The game split, just like me.

I had a very long time here... I started, actually, not quite in Russia's group, though I definitely heard their voices whether they claim to admit that or not. I'm fairly certain that some of them drew me in, but I joined the dagger men in their games. I was a jester, of course. A Jyan-cat throwing the rock-paper-siscors with a ridiculous red dress and deep green hair. I had items that people never saw, and I kept bringing them to you all, because I was so absorbed in the game itself. I remember waiting at the Mountain Daughter's camp, sweeping up in a useless manner, as I watched and smiled with you. I cleaned up those camp-sites and tried to make sure you could enjoy an odd face, but there's so much more... I miss you.

This sort of path has left me lonely, but I know it has left a lot of you lonely in the same way. I'm going to check back in whenever I really can. I need to try to reconnect some of the old spots of my life, because they helped me keep going for as long as I could. I played this game and spent time with the names, faces, and stories here from middle school through college and thensome. People got sick of me, both because of trying to teach me things and because of the way they missed me when I became so disconnected.

I know that I'm sounding too heavy for many of you hear, and for that I'll always try to apologize. That's always been the way that I am. I haven't really been able to face-off with any of you, because I really didn't understand how. That was ingrained into me from the start, though. I was given this account from a friend that I had in real life. It was such an important gift that I couldn't deny. The irony of it is that I was given this account from a friend that I first saw playing the game in a public library.

Eventually, I got more and more ridiculous... some of you know of that, because Rayleigh Silvers, the old dragon that was completely absurd was me as well. That wasn't a secret, but there were other accounts. I have a few that I cannot even remember, which means that those names are lost in his endless library. That goes for characters and accounts and friendly faces. Many of my regrets and passions lay here with you all. And it eventually felt like the game itself was trying to give me more and more to play with so that I would remember it all...

I am struggling for now offline, but I'm trying to fix myself up. That's what roleplay is... always trying to improve with the people around you, whether you're online or offline... a lot of you only experienced that for the first time recently, with the events of the world, but you had so many places to pick from that it was simply too hard to choose for you. If you started then, please post too.

I do recognize you/your characters, but I'm not sure we ever did RP (mostly because I never roleplayed with the Morytania crowd besides some very rare occasions.) I played characters like Eziak who was my Mahjarrat and Arthfael Olivriar, who was involved in the occupation of Varrock plot RP, by the Foryx and Vaeyl covens, in the spring of 2014.

Besides that I spent a lot of my time bumbling around with PoK RP, and almost always was part of the post-2015 runs of the Wizards Tower as my character, Joanna Lavelle.
