I had quit SK for a time as I have had some personal changes in my life and either have not felt like I have had time for SK or that when I play I feel like I could be doing something more productive/fulfilling. I logged on today and got PKed for the first time by some random rogue I have never met and just looted and ran away without a word, so thanks for the RP?
Vivitnir was a youth from Uxmal who was descended from Imperial stock. He was the ancestor of an Imperial deserter who had settled in Teron. Living on the harsh streets of Teron caused Vivitnir to turn towards religion to cope so he decided to follow what was in his opinion the most powerful God, Thuban. The past of his family afforded him no love from the locals and the only way he saw to achieve anything in life was to try and make his way in the Imperial Legion.
After meeting the Knightlord at the time he was inducted into the Legion where he served for 25 years. The Knightlord left and did not return so Vivitnir soon worked he way up from Conscript to Immune and finally Legatus. Many years passed and Vivitnir started to slowly induct people into a specific Legion to serve him personally. At this time he caught the eyes and ears of more sinister forces, the Crucible of Shadows. Led by Irmirschian , the Crucible at the time was a feared force of the realms but after years of that the decline was showing as members began to seek their own study and forgo anything that would resemble a cabal.
A companion he had made over the years by the name of Leila came to him and wished to serve under him in the Legions. To the contrary of his own good judgement and sense he took the offer of this woman to serve as the Aquilifer of the Legion XIII. It only took a few years for the woman's treachery to surface and although it was not treachery towards Vivitnir he soon was cast to the side to serve the ambitions of Leila. A series of weak leaders came and went providing the perfect platform for Leila to win the seat of Knightlord.
Only protected by his status as Immune as his title and honors as Legatus were stripped away by the Knightlord and given to an inferior Soldier loyal to her, Vivitnir continued to spread the unholy word of his God and to extend Imperial Dominance where he could. The years went by and the Former Legatus was not relevant any longer. It was not long before Vivitnir's leaves of absences became longer and longer. His last moments were in an icy dead city speaking to one about the history that he had lived through when an unnamed and unworthy assassin slew him most likely from the word of his old friend and lover Leila, most likely because he held the knowledge of who she is and was before her facade enveloped everyone else.

I'd like to thank in no particular order. Leila , Arandir, Aello, Karron, Irmischian, Denali, Illasni, Tilm sorry if I forgot you, its been a while.
SK sure has changed since I have played before and played again. I have a lot of praises and complains about SK but not going to write them all here as it wont matter anyways. I did want to give some gripes about the Thuban religion though, how am I supposed to RP an evil priest when my GOD is seen GIVING OUT CANDY to people?! Also the religion is just a mess , it makes no sense at all. Is it a Dabi religion or is it it's own thing? Like why do we both have demons in all the artwork and stories , the same ones that seemingly only serve one god? It seems all over the place and any attempt I tried to do any RPs with the religion or write any books was just ignored or put on the back burner for MONTHS without a so much as 'hey sorry' until four or five months after the fact. I really tried to do things for the religion but I felt like I was ignored and when it came down to do something I honestly felt jaded about putting any effort into it.
See you around, probably not anytime soon.
