I was using pink to illustrate the elves that attacked the crew since it's the Trahaearn clan's colour and they built the Serenist ships and mecha, and grey to show Icthlarin talking. From what I've seen in forums (I started in the Lore forum) people have been using blue for Saradomin, red for Zammy etc. Prepare for hell on RuneScape in Naval Cataclysm!

The Lore Forums doesn't seem to be getting much new lore lately, from brief glances. I'm guessing the quest problem for Runescape hasn't improved? It's a shame, I really liked reading what was happening over there.

The current theme over there is screeching about Zamorak. I'm honestly questioning the sanity of some of the people who defend him.

Thanks for the clarification, Annie and Angel!

For a character on Into the Fire, I was basically thinking of a reworked version of my old character Azim who got a little adventuring experience under his belt, and a little bit more confident of a personality. While self doubt is okay for an adventurer every once in a while, doubting yourself constantly isn't healthy in the adventuring business. Although I had that planned in my head, this aspect of his personality never really got to show its face, as I made 1 post with him. This irresponsible behavior is what I'm trying to avoid with me figuring out my life before posting a bio.

However, the bigger problem I had with him was that I didn't know how magic functioned in your world and how he fit into that equation. I also feel as if he had a rather vague "spell list," but I don't really know if that's even how magic works in Engelain. Another problem was that while I had a potential thought for why he couldn't cast spells, I never worked it out with you behind the scenes, so I felt like I would be overstepping my boundaries of I were to explain how magic functions/doesn't with Azim.

Another thought was that while I originally wrote him to be weak, I feel he was too underpowered. While this is to be expected due to some characters having lived through 2 previous threads, I felt like a literal adventuring newbie would be entirely out of his league and out of place in a party of seasoned adventurers. Depending on how much time has passed since the beginning of the thread and how much more powerful the other characters have gotten, he could become a touch stronger.

Of course, all of these things should be discussed sometime before I post a new bio, which should be not a short while. And if I change my mind, I could always play a swordsman or something.

I never really understood the appeal of Zamorak. I know Saradomin is only the god of order, not of good, but how is absolute chaos better?
Edit: typo.

Ancient is using colours to differentiate between prose and dialogue, and this is a trick that's used by a few roleplayers as well, (Inferi being chief amongst them,)
