Ha! There is a list? Is Kazzzi number one? He better be, even back when I had bought the whole "Ammatar" lie, I admired him. Someone needs to bring something like Heathen Legion back.

I would actually much prefer if Blake stayed in Amarr.

Can we negotiate about that? No?

Leave Amarr? I think not. If you wish to lose your mind and believe yourself to be something you are not, well then that's your prerogative. But I'll not be abandoning my cash cow anytime soon.

Since I'm on the subject of you losing your mind, OP... You call yourself "Ancient Amarrian." Any student of history would know that's properly called Athran. Were I a medical doctor, I would recommend looking into regular dosing with a neuroleptic to mitigate these episodes. Clozapine comes to mind, given the rather paranoid-deluded manner in which these episodes manifest.

No, I'm not that kind of doctor.

Haaaaaa!! Ha ha ha ha ha!


Don't laugh. I am one of few Amarr left who remember the old ways. How to raise a proper family around multitudes rather than becoming one of them. How to have honor and respect for a religion you are raised in instead of honoring a system of control while having a sick pride in it. Not self respect because of it.

My family line was ended by religious hypocrisy. I left Amarr confused and bitter to find freedom and start anew. I found with time it was something I had to fight for and became a freedom fighter.

Now freedom is my opiate.
Blood my testament.
Life my pride for I have none.


Respectfully, pilot, you are aware that oral traditions tend to be ... ah. Protean?

They change, a lot, over time, kind of like spoken languages themselves when literacy is low. Even if there's a strong tradition of verbatim memorization, all it takes is one careless storyteller, or one with a little dramatic flair or a faulty memory. Over the generations, this tends to happen a lot.

Oral lore is less likely to really be an "old way" than, well, just about anything that involves a book nobody remembers seeing written.

One or two more ships in the warzone makes very little difference in the outcome there, but one or two good pilots in a tradehub can cause a whole lot of disruption.


Like Anyanka Funk in Hek and Estyur? Like.. yesterday and the day before in fact!

You know, I was in Amarr for the past year.


Yes, i think my mother podded you and assigned some pilots to try disrupt your activities when possible.

Perhaps U'K can do the same in Hek and Rens.

Meh, she's not that big of an annoyance.... on a scale of one to ten she would rank somewhere around "mosquito".


CODE is more troublesome.

I've been hearing people chant this idiocy for years. Do you have an exact timefram, I grow weary waiting.


And no...you are most certainly not Amarr.

Every time someone makes an anti-slavery post, I jettison 100 tribal savages into space.

Our enemies' blood will paint the blackness of space, a terrible testament to our power. Only God's great Empire shall remain, a beacon of light to guide us in these dark and perilous times. Amarr, ad victoriam! Nam claritas Imperii!

That's morally reprehensible and to even joke about it, God willing you are only making some joke in poor taste, you should be ashamed of yourself.

It's not befitting a Holder to mistreat their slaves.

If you cannot bear them in your sight of service any longer sent them away to another Holder whom will treat them properly. I'd be happy to locate one and bear any financial costs that would be incurred.

What fills the soul? Something that guides a lost child back to it's parents arms. Or waves that dye the shores of the heart gold. A blessed breath to nurture life in a land of wheat. Or the path the Sef descend drawn in ash. In the wake of fire.

And let's face it, unsurprising. How very "civilized" your Holders and nobles are, Rodj. The 'lesser' people speak and the great True Amarr murders hundreds in either a petty hissy fit or trying to be edgy and scary. Aldiboo and yourself often point at me or mine as examples of why the Matari shouldn't be allowed to be free. I suggest you sort out your own house, as there's all together a staggering amount of you proving you're not fit to own pet rocks, much less human beings.

Fair enough. Not going to claim he's a Holder, but he's certainly holding slaves quite legally while in your Empire, and he's certainly of True Amarr stock. It must require a staggering amount of mental gymnastics to look at New Eden today and say they have earned any kind of 'divine' right to hold anything more animated than a log, don't you think?

Don't pretend you haven't seen plenty of evidence of this yourself, kin. You may consider us monsters and not be too far off from the truth, human nature being what it is, but that makes all of us monsters. Your 'superior' Amarr as well.

Edit: Spirits below, you're too fond of completely swapping out the contents of your posts while people are responding to them.

Which is part of my point, yes. True Amarr are as ****** in the head as everyone else, and you are perfectly aware of this.

ShockedShocked

Mr. Ephesianos, I believe that the last "Ancient Amarr of tribal roots and vocal lore" died around the times of Dano Gheinok. Tribal vocal lore isn't very competitive even against a network of monasteries and libraries, with scribes and all, especially if those are backed by an organized military force.

Even the modern Minmatar have their old lore all written down - it's easier to keep and study that way.

So I believe that you simply come from a community of persecuted heretics. Something really obscure and probably just as nasty. Even Blood Raiders and EoM have "scriptures" of their own... But that's maybe because they find relative safety in their numbers and all the hideouts in distant space.

How about no? The fact that you are the only heir to a tiny community of heretics of some sort that was eradicated long ago gives you no right to claim Amarr for yourself, or "your" people, whoever they are.

...People are weird as they are, but put one in a jovian pod, and every exiled heretic or prion disease victim suddenly begins to think that they are the king of the universe or the chosen one, and make random statements they are unable to act upon.

So please, come to Amarr, camp the hub, gank around, whatever. How many times the Goons "burned Jita"? And Jita's still there in all its glory, full of trade traffic and ungodly spam.
