My promise to you.

[satanic mechanic]

So I see a lot of threads about how dieing should be handled in this game, and it set me off to thinking.
You see, one of my pet annoyances with combat oriented gaming over the years has been the lack of fear and consequence. People very rarely care if they die or not.

It's not just Discovery, but seeing as this is a roleplaying server, and I am here, playing on it, I've decided to put my money where my mouth.

I solemnly pledge to you, that any of my characters who suffer the destruction of their vessel, wether it be from the actions of my fellow players, or my inability to combat NPC's, will not be used for the next day or two, as the medics and mechanics ply their respective trade on my riddled left overs.

None of my characters are insane fanatics willing to die for their cause, and my flying skills pretty much deny me the opportunity to play someone with supreme confidence in their own abilities, so don't be surprised if some days I decide discretion is the better part of valour and try to avoid or disengage from you.

Hopefully the threat of not being able to play at all for the next couple of days should add an element of consequence to any engagement I get into, shoud be fun:)

For the record, my characters are :

[QCO]Stan_Mckhanic : Hussar, piloted by Lt Stan Mckhanic in the service of the Bretonnian Armed Forces
Ferdi.Lombardi[202nd] : Outcast Saber piloted by the inept Junky Ferdinand Lombardi
Seelie : BowEx Large Train piloted by Sean Campbell, who some days is actually sober.

I don't expect anyone else to play by the same rules I'm imposing on myself, but I just thought I'd put them up for all to see, so I don't have the option of backing out of it without losing face:)

See you in Sirius.
