Ahahahaha. This entire thread is delightful. It is refreshing to see someone do something with the Idiot Hierarchy.
Baka, I have a deal for you. And I think you'll like it very much.
I will give you IP, and you can skip this particular step. In exchange, however, you'll go up against Theorin/Moerin to compete for an Idiot Maiden spot. The challenge will be what Moerin comes up with, and so you will be competing on his terms. Perfect for someone who intends to climb all the way to the top, yes? Purvis, Acolyte of CPMC, has agreed to oversee the challenge.
So if you choose to accept this deal, you'll really get the chance to prove yourself against someone who's actually here often-- fighting Lloyd would be unbalanced anyway, as he's not often on MotK. I think this deal is a bit more fair all around.
Do you accept this deal, Baka Miko Pits?
