Just curious as to which towns will be defended the most by you the player. Or will you be like me and have my bane-loyal character attack the raiders and rioters to make the town mayors pissed off at me.
Basically it's what I call a character that seeks distruction of all the towns,and thus will not aid in defending any town no matter what.I don't even know what bane-loyal means so I guess I'll be picking a town
Yes,please.want me to edit Jhelom in?
Indeed, but on both LS and GL the EMs appear to be finding ways to incorporate it. On LS I am told that Cove is occupied (no, that's not a reference to RL events I just can't think of another word) and on GL Cove has been effectively killed by the orcs. (Presumably, once we can rescue its population from captivity, assuming we are up to the task, it will bounce back in some form.)Cove isn't part of the event
It means siding with the demon lord Virtuebane and the Bane Chosen two event cycles ago: During the In the Shadow of Virtue storyline.I don't even know what bane-loyal means so I guess I'll be picking a town
lol... Lucy says, "Come with me to New Magincia!"So during the bane invasion, I stopped fighting for the demon and "regained" my goodness. Buuuuut, it seems that I have been backsliding (I must consider my sins... oopsy!) and, well, my loyalty (according to my points) is still for the Bane. As long as I am still blue, I will probably just be a menace rather than anything productive.
BTW, I bank at Cove, and use Britain when I need to go to the City. I prefer the small town feel for everyday and, well, Britain is the original and I like to maintain my business there. Cove, however, on Chessy, is still sporting the corrupted bell, (I must personally take some credit for killing many many ophis for that) and thus must still be under Bane's influence. Even though he lost... wait, did I miss something?
off to read shouldn't we know more about it before committing ?
I posted the question in another thread but on a second thought, this one looks a more appropriate thread for the question.
Is the Town loyalty tied to one individual character or does the whole account get tied to a chosen Town, as far as loyalty goes ?
Bottom line is, can different characters pick different Towns for their loyalty within the same one account ?
Also, does defending a town affect in any ways Bane or Ophidians' previous loyalty ?
In such a case, if a player wants to preserve either the Bane or the Ophidians' loyalty previously accumulated, how should they behave in regards to this new invasion ?
It's always good to know the history... as well as how things may have changed from how they used to be, as in Magincia. Thanks for posting the link.I wonder how many people have reviewed or will review the information on the following page (and the town pages linked to it) or similar written histories before making their decision?

Yes,they can. My main character,the bad guy,will not be loyal to any city. My paladin will probably look to defend Brit or Trinsic.Different characters can choose different towns right?
Indeed. It has always been my favorite city. Such a nice, cozy, little island townI chose Skara Brae because that's where I bank and shop, plus I live just outside the city. It's been one of my favorite cities all of these years.![]()

Just out of curiosity here, why should that matter for the event?Vesper really shouldn't be an option either.
It's not a Virtue City.
OOOOh. good idea. I took a quick look and noticed that the different towns each have a heraldic symbol. I'd love to see all the images of these heraldries. Might be as good a way to pick a town as any, maybe city banners will become available and you can only get one for the city you are loyal to. For some reason my chars all started in Moonglow and I'm feeling rather partial to that city but I'll probably only choose it on one char and choose other cities for the others according to their roles.I wonder how many people have reviewed or will review the information on the following page (and the town pages linked to it) or similar written histories before making their decision?

For the same reason Serpent's Hold isn't a 'city' to defend.Just out of curiosity here, why should that matter for the event?Vesper really shouldn't be an option either.

I thought Serpent's Hold wasn't a city to defend because it wasn't actually a city, it was more like an outpost or a compound. I always figured Vesper as a city.For the same reason Serpent's Hold isn't a 'city' to defend.
You are correct Serpents Hold is not a city but a military base. It is where the royal guards train in the lore. Vesper is the only non-virtue city in the original lands.I thought Serpent's Hold wasn't a city to defend because it wasn't actually a city, it was more like an outpost or a compound.

Not quite sure what you mean 'original lands' - Cove and Vesper are both small towns going back to the PC games.You are correct Serpents Hold is not a city but a military base. It is where the royal guards train in the lore. Vesper is the only non-virtue city in the original lands.
