I've lost my faction!

Post by Orbis_3 »

Very embarrassing. My first character here created specifically as a homage to an old Nexus War faction was its blithe leader and sole member as a mortal; he has just become a Pariah and ... Oops? İ guess i initially created the faction as an Unaligned? Because I've been kicked out it seems, and it doesn't show on the Factions list.

No biggie, I'll make it again... Only i can't! "A faction with this name already exists". Not on the list, but a trace of it remains, like an ill fetor wafting through an outhouse.

So, can an admin erase that misbegotten instance so that I can remake the faction in a proper evil form? Or otherwise explain how i messed up.

Faction name: The Black Goat of the Woods with 1000 Young
Character name: a scrawny little goat

Yes, Unaligned factions are technically (restricted) and mean Transcended only, so no Angels and no Demons. An Evil faction allows for Demons and Transcended while an Evil (restricted) means just Demons. Mortals can join any faction. Just so the problem doesn't come up again when you're able to re-create your faction again.

The alignment of your faction has been updated to be Evil and you have been returned to the faction as its leader.

Thanks for reaching out about the need.

False alarm, turns out the ill fetor wafting through an outhouse was just me! Thank you for returning me to my home, Kandarin

Could you put William Butcher back into his original faction (The Boys) for me? I assumed that empty factions would go away when I temporarily joined another faction, so I could just restart my old one when I was ready. But, apparently not.
