Huh?

The player of Xorus and whichever older inactive characters since the early AOL time period. Background is in physics and mathematics, but mostly indifferent to game mechanics.

Orientation

I tend to focus on relatively archaic material in general, or subjects so esoteric no one else is likely to cover it. With I.C.E. Age content in particular, I will typically only get into things that directly impacted the game, whether old stories with obscure details or subtle references that still exist. Lorgalis was implicitly relevant to a few stories from the Landing region, for example, but the Ky'taari race of Shadow World would have nothing to do with anything.

I will try to keep lines within the text that emphasize those subjects are part of an obsolete timeline. GemStone III was originally based on third-party source books, so most things of that era will implicitly have page numbers backing them up. Some things unavoidably involve making interpretations, especially in situations involving symbolism or implicit significance. What happened during the I.C.E. Age, however, is not my concern as I was not there for it.

Incidentally, if anyone has logs of Claedesbrim Castle from before Estrion re-decorated, we might be able to figure out what it was all about. I was the one Banthis was responding to on the subject.
