Azal, try to think of the Kami as the giant white yeti types seen in Zorai
Sure they don't have cool armour like the Karavan, but I wouldn't want to mess with one

How do we know there isn't two small kami inside every karavan suit...

There are also some very spooky Kami in the Umbra PR. Don't think I'd wanna mess with them either.

IC:
Why should I resurrect you for free? I don't owe you anything and will take any opportunity to make dapper. Stopping what I'm doing and entering a potentially risky situation to save someone costs me time and experience. Theres a chance I may also be killed in the process. I look after myself and you should do so too or be prepared to pay for my services.
OOC:
I haven't charged anyone yet and have rezzed plenty of times regardless of risk. IMO people are starting to expect you to stop what you're doing and save them. As an experiment I'm going to start charging, except for Alliance members and people I've teamed with/know well ingame. I accept the fact that people may not rez me as a consequence.
I'm doing this as mercenary scum to add some RP to the game. I don't expect or particularly want everyone else doing it. I certainly wouldn't do this IRL so I don't think people should make those comparisons.
If another healer is around at the same time as me then they can heal my 'client' for free and I'll respond IC (hint: I won't be happy).
I don't think a dead character can trade anyway so there's also the chance that I may rez and not be paid. Again I will respond IC and maybe even start a blacklist.

These views do not necessarily coincide with those of my guildmates

Yeh its a roleplaying game not a self help group. So lets play and whatever happens don't get offended in real life.
Infact I've been lending people money/items in the hope they won't pay back so I can get some 'enemies' but everyone is just too nice

Mess with me and you'll end up, errm, messier.

Very cool idea, I would like to be rezzed by you and roleplay a bit (like haggling). I am assured that you are a nice guy irl and I hope most people can see the difference between a RPG and someone in RL.
btw, I am DM in a AD&D game. I like to play evil characters...

That just makes me want to rez them more!

I'd get ready to be black listed myself if I was you.

Philu..I think that's part of the point. Playing the bad guy means sh*t happens. Just don't take it personally, take it IC.
