Tuluki RPT

My guess is Jihaens and Lirathans will now be "Templars" in the same sense as Allanaki templars. If this is such, it might imply that there was needed balancing between northern and southern templars, which further implies that conflict will spring between either sect.

From the history page:

c.1629 (Year 12 Age 22)
At a Descending Sun event in the Tuluki Arena, Muk Utep makes an appearance. During a short speech, he dissolves the Jihaen and Lirathan Orders, combining the templarate under the rule of the recently promoted High Precentor, Oralia Negean.

This just might be the optimist in me talking but I want to believe the staff isn't that stupid. I do believe they have the best intentions at least for the game, if not always the best results.


If i had to guess, lower level Templar will still be similar to Jihaen of the past with perhaps some very very moderate mind-bending abilities, which might be limited to offense or defense if anything. The ability to read your bio, see your thoughts, understand your feelings, and know everything about what you've been doing or plotting will probably now be limited to higher level templar similar to what red or maybe only black robes are. In short the people the general populace would have absolutely no general interaction with on a general basis hopefully allowing the players in tuluk the freedom others have have in Allanak.

I cannot actually see this happening at all but wouldn't it be cool if with all the changes, tuluk would begin to reintroduce mages to society? Though perhaps only water and earth elementalist. In my head, Tuluk right now is at such a disadvantage against Allanak because despite Tuluk's superior military numbers and healthy virtual population numbers(I am assuming this though) allanak has a force of mages it can call upon alongside powerful templars.


Water and earth elementalist who live in Morins village? Maybe even friendlier relations and alliances with tribes like the Al'siek who keep water and earth elementalist? Sunrunners? Well even I doubt it

Without mages in employ and without psionic ability to gather information, Tuluk will be in some significant disadvantage, compared to Allanak. I seriously doubt the Templars will lose those abilities.

Odds are, the problem was that since Jihaens took over control from the Lirathans, Lirathans were less eager to share information with Jihaens. Which leads to missing a massive espionage network, something that was practically an impossibility before.

Now, there will be less order vs order conflict and more individual templar vs individual templar.

This is all a guess, though.

If they don't, Tuluk will continue to be a dead boring place to play with nothing but cool wilderness areas surrounding it.
