"Best fendas in this game"

In Tragedy, Strength. In Battle, Determination. In Homura, The Holy and Unholy Light of Kyrie’s Life

These sad, tagged darkspawn colonies has been purged by the flame and salt of The Black Hawks. Darkspawn everywhere quake and scamper at the sight of our noble arms.

We pray for hope, embrace curses and protect you from the dark
We traded our souls for our powers and a destiny of battle.
A destiny that ends in oblivion.
For the only way to escape our despair is to vanish from this world.
The end will come for all of us. So we continue our fight.

Unholy creatures have escaped from The Black Hawks's secret laboratory! These rabbit-hawk hybrids are designed to be ruthless animals, and now that they're in an uncontrolled environment they are capable of invading the entire planet, spreading poisonous chocolate eggs far and wide. Multiple regions got their entire ecosystem destroyed by these... things. Oops.

Statement On Unacceptable Behavior

From the desk of the Council of Hawks


The Black Hawks, on top of being a powerful military organization, are a region of principles to which we consistently strive to adhere. Included among these principles are the need for our members to feel safe from out-of-character harm or threats thereof, a refusal to be taken advantage of, and a no-nonsense approach to discrimination. In accordance with these values, it is not possible for The Black Hawks to maintain a working relationship with The Roman Empire under their current leadership. We do not take a decision like this lightly and will remain open to work with TRE in the future under new leadership that shares our values of building a healthy, caring environment.

The termination of relations with TRE is a side effect of an investigation recently concluded by The Council of Hawks. We were provided substantial evidence by an anonymous member of TRE proving that these individuals have engaged in out-of-character behavior which is serious and unforgivable in the eyes of the Council. Much of the evidence provided is directed at members of our region, and we wholeheartedly refuse to provide any service to those who demonstrate to our members -- and the Gameplay community as a whole -- the level of disrespect shown in these logs. This evidence is beyond unsuitable for this forum (as well as any further detail about the contents that we can provide here), but will be distributed by the Council through third-party means upon request.

Following the conclusion of this investigation and in the interest of protecting our members, The Black Hawks are indefinitely refusing to work with any region that allows the players known as Plagentine and Festavo to hold positions of leadership. This course of action is in line with the statement previously made by the Council regarding those responsible for igniting the Predator Scandal, and we will follow precedents set there regarding situations related to this policy.

This statement is the penultimate step taken by the Council in rolling out this information. We have already briefed the leadership of The Roman Empire on our intentions and the evidence behind it, as well as our internal middle leadership and other Gameplay organizations we believe would find this information pertinent. Neither individual has denied the content presented in the evidence nor made any attempt to defend it. The region’s leadership has not yet shown any indication of remorse or a plan to remedy the concerns.

We do not wish to leave any curious party unaware of the full breadth of our reasoning for issuing this statement, so feel free to reach out to the Council for clarification on any aspect of this policy change. Members of The Roman Empire will still be allowed to participate in The Black Hawks and will not be restricted from entry. Our issue lies squarely with the individuals in question: Plagentine and Festavo.

Thank you for your attention,

Stop giving misogynistic abusers a platform. Anyone who sides with Tiktok Star Andrew Tate even 1% of what he says will be treated as enemy who should be shamed out of society. Impressions+Views+Videowatches=$. Nothing he says is new or revolutionary. I don't care if he said "some good stuff", it's still bad because: the more you watch him, the more ad revenue MONEY and algorithm BOOSTS you're giving him to traffick victims. And don't say the victim lied, a young man stupidly told me that the victim confessed to lying, I told em to link me proof, articles or the Audio of her confession, he googled and found 0 proof 0 articles, and he realized he was spreading fake rumors he heard and BELIEVED without fact-check. Don't brand victims as liars without GOOGLING. Debated here

While I do not know the details of the behavior displayed by Plagentine and Festavo, I trust the Council of the Hawks to make an educated decision on the matter. The Ragerian Imperium will be considering similar actions.

EDIT: The details are appalling.

The content in question is indeed indefensible and disgusting to a level that shocks even a jaded cynical nihilist like me. Good on TBH for taking a stance against this filth. The Ragerian Imperium will be following their example and I will personally be banning festavo from Whitehall chat (which still exists....somehow)

A good decision by TBH.

We should all be monitoring regions that have relations with TRE, or in which Kleo or Festavo are present, to make sure they make similarly good decisions.
