Perhaps you have just had some experiences I have not,but I can't say I have ever seen one case of someone being "mothered" by Bria. Now I don't get a chance to play as much as the rest of the pack ( Quintius, Imbrogno, Staile, Kennan, ect..) but during my watch I just have not seen Bria act as you say. Perhaps it's because she does not wish to mother someone of my morals or perhaps your role-paly made her think you needed some mothering. Your claim that a good 40% of Arbiters are idiots is also a bit outta-whack. There will always be someone who gets in a cabal and does poorly but I see very few notes of people complaning about the current groups actions. The majority of the few notes I do see are from crack-head blood-junckies who have been wanted so many times they would have revived the death-penalty in most states. Concerning the conflicts with the village I think that will soon be coming to an end. The Hall now has two shamans with rot and there is only so much con in the village. Regardless of the
bitching about rot/word I intend to use it fully. Why would I keep dodging blows of deathful force when I can just word and ask em if there lips have fallen off yet? Do I expect one of those battle bards to stop sleep/killer? or perhaps the demon spawn will decide his flurry is overpowered and cheap and not use it on us? Somehow I don't think so.
> Bria is the problem, more or less. She's not too active as an Immortal, especially when arbiters need her around, ie (time of war, etc.) I cant really blame her though, with the ever increasing number of idiots who continue to ruin CF and bring it down. So, what you have is an endless cycle of a "motherly figure" by Bria, treating her arbiters like babies, instead of soldiers. Her actions, along with 40% or greater of the arbiters being idiots continue to turn the playerbase against arbiters and their ideals, therefore, that in turn brings far less skilled players to the cabal, I digress, but thats basically why a Lord/Lady cant do much more than Induct and set a good example as an arbiter. Honesly, I hope Bria retires soon and lets Astein take over. I may be cutting my throat by saying that, but Astein's suave in his roleplay of disciplined/strict/evil character. Bria just doesn't give a shit most of the time, IMHO.
