Well, Virgil and I did a private scene in messages but Ian didn't find out that Arty was a necromancer. It worked to have him see him as a person which is why he's not violent. But I'm seriously starting to feel seriously harassed about it. It is not unusual for a PC to dislike undead or necromancers in any fantasy game and I really feel like I've already gone out of my way to make it work. I'd really like to focus on the IC aspect of it and leave the OOC by the wayside, if we could.<br/><br/>I'm sorry that we each see your character a different way, that's just how he came across ICly. Ian agreed with you that he was just a vulnerable little kid who was using bravado to defend himself, as he put it. But then he'll have found out he's a spellcaster, so the bravado then comes off as arrogance.<br/><br/>The fact is, you'd have similar problems if someone new joins and they want to play a Paladin or a good aligned Cleric or most druids or a LG monk or really any LG character because spells that raise the dead have an Evil descriptor on them for a reason. Undead creatures have an Evil alignment, even the ones who have no free will.<br/><br/>I'm not telling you how to play your character and I'm not going to criticize you for having a preferred type of character but you put a huge onus on me to make your necromancer character work. I did my best. From now on I'd like to only discuss it ICly.  Can we do that, please?<br/><br/>I have already moved significantly on Ian's opinions and attitude and have spent literal hours working with you for -your- benefit and asking no similar consideration in return. It has been extraordinarily stressful and disruptive.  I have already played this ball out. I have made my vampire hunter not violently disposed towards the physical embodiment of what the class is opposed to.<br/><br/>I feel like I have pushed as far as I can on this matter and will only be treating it as a IC issue from now on.<br/><br/>EDIT: I've been contacted by Zaer and he informed me to work things out with Vergil or change my character concept. I'll make sure to have Ian respond ICly the next time Arty says something to him.
