Aldrith your new character portraits in-game look quite good, nice job with the lighting.

I'm sure I'll be seeing (shooting) at you guys before too long, welcome back ;)

Thanks Silas! :D

Btw, for those of you who haven't met Otheiran before (I like to call him Ger-Bear) he's based on this character, mixed with a western knight with the mouth of a sailor:

I've also been thinking of making him slightly senile since he's 95 and doesn't believe in mental implants, so the dialogue might even be similar!

*Ger'Ante Otheiran punches a hole through the block of wood.

"Did you see that wood gnome? I think I got it."

*The new recruit blinks.

"I don't see any wood gn-"

"ARE YOU SAYING I'M CRAZY?! Now help me get the rest!"

I have absolutely no idea what that was about :P but if you Ger-Bear is anything like that guy he is a complete nutcase.

...and you may have ruined the Cyberknights for all time.

I hope Celeste never ever ever ever with an extra 'ever' meets this guy.  She'll think he's adorable (and his views on capsuleers nicely line up with those held by her former Amarr business partner, whom she misses a great deal).

Haha, to be fair, the subtitles in that clip weren't the ones used in the actual film. Those are much more serious, and you'd have to hunt down the proper clips yourself since they don't seem to be readily available on YouTube.

The character of Otheiran himself has reasons why he is rude, insulting and curses, as few of them being he is a bitter old man who feels he can say whatever the hell he wants because 1.) he's old enough 2.) he's strong enough and 3.) just doesn't really give a damn about the politeness bit of knighthood any longer. It goes a lot deeper than that as well, but you should RP with him to figure it out.

I hope Celeste never ever ever ever with an extra 'ever' meets this guy.  She'll think he's adorable (and his views on capsuleers nicely line up with those held by her former Amarr business partner, whom she misses a great deal).

Why is this a bad thing?! I demand you meet him for saying that. You just try to call him 'cute' and see what happens.

I can truly say, Aldrith brings a good fight.

Till we meet again.

I'm not saying it's a bad thing outright.

Just that people who she thinks are adorable have a tendency to disappear quietly under mysterious circumstances (stupid stupid family curses)1.

1Yes, really.  And also we're talking PCs played by other people here, just not figments of my demented imagination. :P

... So what you're saying is that Celeste is a serial cuddler who has a secret cuddle dungeon where she keeps all of her abducted cute things and ruthlessly snuggles with them until they die of natural causes.

And knowing is half the battle.

Celeste's secret snuggle place.  Has a nice ring to it.

I was poking through some old emails and came across some film related faux religious stuff that made me think of the Knighthood as it has been described here.

Quote
The Family Prayer
"And Shepherds we shall be
For thee, my Lord, for thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand
Our feet may swiftly carry out Thy commands.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee
And teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In Nomeni Patri Et Fili Et Spiritus Sancti."

Quote
Il Duce's Prayers
"And when I vest my flashing sword and my hand takes hold in judgement I will take vengeance upon mine enemies. And I will repay those who hate me O Lord, raise me to Thy right hand And count me among Thy saints."

"Whosoever shed last blood. By man shall his blood be shed. For immunity of god make he the man. Destroy all that which is evil. So that which is good may flourish. And I shall count thee among my favoured sheep. And you shall have the protection of all the angels in heaven."

"Never shall innocent blood be shed. Yet the blood of the wicked shall flow like a river. The three shall spread their blackened wings and be the vengeful, striking hammer of god. "

What do you think, does this work for you?

They do indeed, thank you kind sir! I myself have been looking to change some Catholic exorcisim prayers to apply to capsuleers XD.

Quote
P: God, by your name save me,
and by your might defend my cause.
 All: God, hear my prayer;
hearken to the words of my mouth.

P: For haughty men have risen up against me,
and fierce men seek my life;
they set not God before their eyes.
 All: See, God is my helper;
 the Lord sustains my life.

P: Turn back the evil upon my foes;
 in your faithfulness destroy them.
All: Freely will I offer you sacrifice;
 I will praise your name, Lord, for its goodness,

P: Because from all distress you have rescued me,
 and my eyes look down upon my enemies.
 All: Glory be to the Father.

Is there a prayer to guide foppish, long haired poets out of the closet and into the light?

Just, asking...might be relevant...

In case you where wondering.

Those "prayers" are from The Boondock Saints (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0144117/).

They are. The movie is pretty damn good. All of EVE over-using and over-quoting this is not. This and the Pulp Fiction quote. (You know what I'm talking about)

Using these in some form would be entirely badass and fitting to your corp... if not for the idiotically large group of players who use them, bordering on meme-dom. I'd advice you to make severe and dedicated alterations/modification to these to fit with KOTMC and get them as far from the originals as possible, if you use them at all.

But of course.

Creative side of KotMC is on hold for now, been spending all my time fighting for Kourm. Single-handedly have put KotMC back on the top of the KB's for the past week. :3
