Are you interested in the lore and/or future updates to Runescape? Yes.

What is one of your favourite storylines/quest series/areas of lore in the game? Elaborate.

My favourite storyline is probably the god/mahjarrat/elder gods/Gielinor series. I like how Jagex built this aspect of the world, the deepness of the characters involved, and the myriad of creative concepts, like the Anima Mundi or multiverses. The blend between fantasy and cosmologic fiction is pretty unique, and it has taught me many interesting philosophies and ways to interpret life.

It is also nice how Jagex dealt with all that Sixth Age lore: Instead of making bland, black and white characters, all gods who had significant development until now are quite multi-dimensional, to the point that you might disagree with them and even find them to be bad, but pretty much all of them are sympathizable; even Sliske or Zamorak, who were basically Satan not so long ago. For a game with the philosophy of significant choices and choosing important characters to help, it is very necessary to make which being to help seem like a difficult choice; they always come with a compromise.

Indeed, all of them are flawed, but they also have their redeeming qualities; all of them.

Despite this being my favorite series, though, I also like other storylines. the Summer quest line or the Sea Slug quests, for example, are some of them. I have a general interest in the rest, as well.

What updates are you most looking forward to in the game?

Pretty much all of them are lore related: Menaphos, Eastern Lands, Elder Gods, Xau Tak, some continuation to the Summer quests, gnomes, etc.

Apart from lore related content, I could mention more love for skilling.

PS: I tend to quit the game for quite some time; is it OK for the clan? Would I be welcomed back if I got expelled for absence?

Hi SomePurrson! I'm definitely going to accept your app - you seem really enthusiastic about the game and it's story and that's something really great to see! Please go ahead and guest in the clan chat and see how you feel about the clan itself, and we'll progress from there!

As for this, since we're at no worries about space (we exist at about halfway to max clan limit) I've not really done inactivity purges for a long time. It's not something I plan to do either in the near future, so you'd not have to worry about being removed from the clan for inactivity at all. If for some reason this changes, I'm always happy to take back previous members!

Quest Points: 106, (At the edge of 2012 I had a quest cape before World wakes came out, I had a new account so I can replay the lore, I still know most of the current lore because I caught up from my friends, Im going to do the Fifth Age quests before I do the sixth age quests.)
Are you interested in the lore and/or future updates to Runescape? Yes, Im very interested in the Runescape lore. Im so interested that I played a DND that was based on Runescapes lore.

I have been reading up on The Return Zaros and it looks very Interesting. The way you go to a different World and learn about Zaros's Past from his memories and finally seeing a Elder god for the first time. It looks very interested and Im very excited to catch up on these new quests. Before this though I was very interested in the Mahjarrat quest series. My favorite quest was The Ritual of The Mahjarrat. Alot of stuff happend in the quest, Lucien tryna use the Stone Of Jas which makes the Dragonkin appear and the Dragonkin just absolutely destroyed Lucien and killing him and taking the staff of Armadyl. The dragonkin pretty much going crazy and tryna kill everyone.

What updates are you most looking forward to in the game?
I am most looking forward to the Gods. Especially Zaros and the Elder Gods.

I know im still catching up on all the quests but I still know most of the Lore from my good friend CaptainSpark and he actually recommended me to apply to this clan. He pretty much told me most of the Lore so I could catch up. Also a good friend in general.

Are you interested in the lore and/or future updates to Runescape?
Definitely! It's what has kept me coming back to RS over the past few years, and I can not wait to see how things continue onward.

My favorite lore area / quests are anything involving the Second Age and the reign of Zaros. I remember when I first got membership, it was to get the best armor set in the game, The Ghostly Robes. (This was pre-Fashionscape and MTX) I remember slowly uncovering the events that led to the "demise" of the Empty Lord and I was hooked. Since then, my favorite quests have been Fate of the Gods 1 and 2, Digsite, Senntisten, anything related to my main main, Zaros.

What updates are you most looking forward to in the game?

As of now, Sliske's Endgame has my hyped. I am also really excited for the introduction of Menaphos after, what, a decade?

Apologies all for the long delays on replies here! Busy few weeks!

Redslimes, I've already got you in game, but noting this here for posterity!

Hazel, you're of course accepted, great app! Hope to see you in game as soon as I can!

Same dice you to you Obi! Wish you'd gone into a bit more detail, but it's all good :P

Hazel and Obi, I'll try and catch you two in game as soon as I can - if not, just ask for any leadership and they can get you sorted!

Quest Points: got quest cape :p actually I had mqc before todays update

Are you interested in the lore and/or future updates to Runescape?:
yep mostly the lore though
What is one of your favourite storylines/quest series/areas of lore in the game? Elaborate:
Hmmmm that is hard to answer, I mean there are many questlines I enjoy a lot but some have some ups and downs, for example I would say myreque quests are my favorite and I loved lord of vampirium a lot in fact, I loved the concept of the underdog fighting against a superior enemy like the vyres, and really enjoyed the final fight with drakan, but then came the final quest which was a huge disappointment, the quest being set for a huge war between varrock and morytania and it was just simplified to use defeating like four vyres in a bridge and 1 simple boss and then the quest ending with a peace treaty with the vyres....
The void series was quite enjoyable and has a great ending having different factions working together, and giving lots of moral choices.
I liked zanik quests as, as long as I ignore the mighty fall, for same reasons I enjoy myreque the underdog fighting a powerful enemy at least on the final quest.
I also enjoyed the fremenik quests mainly the last one which had a great battle in relleka.
The 5th age mahjarrat series cause who doesn't enjoy them, not to mention most 5th age quests lead up to wgs, and also the ritual of the mahjarrat which shows the true threat of the dragonkin at the end.
The return of zaros also although fotg changed what I think was the intended way of zaros return which I imagine was possessing our body but still a great quest with lots of reveals.
I could go on lol but I dont want to make multiple posts for this :p

What updates are you most looking forward to in the game?
menaphos expansion for sure
