Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.

Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Almost anything can be used defensively, but the Talmonts were, specifically, very hard to kill. They were, in turn, countered by the mind control of their liege lords.
Very badly. They'd be pretty darn good at ring out sports fighting like Sumo, though...
I don't know if this has been mentioned before, but ignored subforums are gone. I used to have all of Rants on ignore, but it looks like I will need to ignore each thread one by one?
The only restriction against promoting other sites would be trying to brigade or linking directly to something illegal.
Otherwise there is no limitation, but cross posting is usually the norm.
She does not plan to black widow noble houses using a shapeshifter accomplice. Her plan is to make everything look like a return to the status quo, with Talmont and Alsace more tightly bound. She would have Marcus permanently take the form of Orestes and doesn't plan to "outlive" him.
No. I am burned on publishing.
It was pretty consistent In the A/B format whether it was present or past. But perhaps I needed to be even more blatant.
No. She killed the servants without care because "risk of death is (implied to be) in the job description for servants who work for nobles."...
She... doesn't consider herself superior because of nobility? It's more the converse. Not, "I am a noble therefore I am superior." But, "I am a noble, therefore I am worthless unless I am superior so I need to dedicate every moment of my life to being perfect."
What? The idea of a concept...
This came up elsewhere, but I think it is worth pointing out. On why this has the tag,"Villainess MC":
Just because somebody fights a villain does not mean they are not also a villain.
Marcus and Catherine killed at least 5 completely innocent people in their quest for revenge, and that does...
Imagine a man born with a lie. After a life of deceit and concealment, he ends his life with a story. On his deathbed, he entrusts it to his child.
Imagine this child born with a story. After a life of recitation and repetition, she ends her life with a legend. On her deathbed, she entrusts it...
After Electra’s death, Orestes orders all the servants to depart the estate without explanation or opportunity to protest. His face is blank as he does so, retreating back to his office without further word.
There are grumbles of concern among the staff, both for the Count’s state of mind and...
I woke up the morning of Catherine’s wedding with a horrible feeling in my gut. My head was screaming in agony. My nausea was almost overwhelming. The night before had been a mess of drink and sorrow, and I was more than regretting it.
Still, years of training and habit made for powerful...
Yep. Marcus's Protean isn't just skin deep. All of his internal organs swap too.
Protean treats entire bodies as costumes to disguise as. If a costume breaks, it is no longer usable, but that doesn't necessarily mean Marcus dies with it.
In this case, it was physics: a wedge of material X...
Catherine’s face is blank as I tell her about Tiberius’s death.
“Is… this a good thing?” I ask with some hesitation. “Orestes and Electra made our job easier. There is less chance for us to get caught… I don’t think you had a personal grudge against Tiberius.”
My Lady closes her eyes in...
Being a commoner, the intricacies of noble politics were never the focus of my education. As part of my grandfather’s torturous training, I was given some base insight into the complicated web at the heart of League politics. But it was not the comprehensive study true nobles would receive...
