SIMBOLIC
07.07.22 | Yeah nah it’s both. Palatinus was the name of a palace official in Rome, as the palace was located on the palatine hill. In time it became “paladinus” (Italian) then paladin.
Sweet more trivia for the bag |

07.07.22 | "
In the Roman imperial period, a palatinus was one of the closest retainers of the emperor, who lived in the imperial residence as part of the emperor's household. The title survived into the medieval period, as comes palatinus. However, the modern spelling paladin is now reserved for the fictional characters of the chanson de geste, while the conventional English translation of comes palatinus is count palatine. After the fall of Rome, a new feudal type of title, also known simply as palatinus, started developing. The Frankish kings of the Merovingian dynasty (reigned 480–750) employed a high official, the comes palatinus, who at first assisted the king in his judicial duties and at a later date discharged many of these himself. Other counts palatine were employed on military and administrative work"
kind of illustrates how it develops into the fun early medieval type knights we think of today |

SIMBOLIC
07.07.22 | Furries are worse. Bots didn’t want to be bits. Furries chose this and that is unforgivable |

I encountered a lot of bots at lower levels but not a whole lot at my current lvl. Is the same true for ranked play?
Also there is a substantial number of furry adornments. I mean Io is literally a vaguely cat lady with massive anime tiddies and a magic crossbow. I imagine that bodes quite nicely with the furry community. |
