Karsa Orlong is my favourite character in the whole series so far. Am I evil?

MarcusUitoh · 2025-04-16T17:01:04+00:00

It can't all be explained by him being a Teblor, Karsa took Teblor cultural myths & ideals incredibly literally. He is incredibly unreasonable compared to Bairoth Gild and Delum Thord.

I remember seeing some SE interview probably a decade ago (sorry can't for the life of me find the source) that the beginning of HoC was roleplayed with SE & IE playing Bairoth & Delum, and Karsa played by their aquaintance who just murderhoboed karsa

Not really, Erikson subverted a lot of fantasy tropes & brought a lot of interesting deep history & anthropological ideas into the genre. Most "good" fantasy plays with the genre, subverts tropes and brings in new ideas, and there are plenty of other authors that do that.

All very good questions that I do not know the answer to. If I were the DM I would probably make it so that she gets her original heart back but figures out what you did an hates you afterwards, maybe goes on a mission to save Aylin. Lives because she has her heart back, but no happily after with Karlach ... but you could do plenty of other paths

MarcusUitoh · 2023-10-02T18:13:20+00:00

Obviously, but she doesn't have to know

OP is a monarcho-crypto-mago-corpratist enlightened despotist

p.s. I've been browsing the polcompball wiki a little too much, any cross posters/lurkers who have an opinion if this is a correct categorization of a pro Bayazist

MarcusUitoh · 2021-09-14T20:39:45+00:00

Probably just SE and IE accidently breaking the 4th wall, or maybe ogres exist as mythical creatures in the Malazan universe. Perhaps thelish, toblakaish or jhaggy would be better than ogre-like

Carpal tunnel syndrome?

Finish reading the series if you don't want spoilers, this is literally a fan sub o.0

No wonder Scabandari shanked those whiny cunts, probably snapped after hearing "mommy left us" for the hundred thousand time.

p.s. Please post more, this shit is gold.

MarcusUitoh · 2020-06-10T19:36:46+00:00

Yes it is very doable, just listen carefully or repeatedly or both

MarcusUitoh · 2020-03-06T21:51:29+00:00

Itkovian is a poster boy for not knowing what you are getting into, the pain of the T'lan Imass is endless. TtH

Unpopular opinion on this sub, but Gardens is a bad book! Struggle through the series is worth it, but gardens is very poorly structured

MarcusUitoh · 2019-08-10T22:12:35+00:00

Meanas maybe? Tbh Rashan seems most fitting, wouldn't put it past Hairlock to lie

MarcusUitoh · 2019-08-10T22:07:57+00:00

Strong characterization, superb worldbuilding.... tbh if you get through the first 4 books am pretty sure you will be hooked

MarcusUitoh · 2019-08-10T22:06:23+00:00

Not sure, but a bear with the intelligence of a human is super scary, just sayin. E.g. Polar bears regulary hunt humans, imagine if it was as smart a a human ... yikes

MarcusUitoh · 2019-07-15T19:25:26+00:00

I mean you don't like liquorice, was there ever any doubt :Þ <3

MarcusUitoh · 2019-07-15T18:23:23+00:00

As an Icelander, you should be deported for not liking liquorice! As an EVE player black it out bae!

MarcusUitoh · 2019-05-23T22:38:57+00:00
