STOP THE MADNESS!!

As long as we Kran get the benefit of the armor ([+defense] or [+mods] in whatever fashion you devise into the future), count this thread as my vote :thumbup: for never, EVER covering up the sexiest and best built of all the races!

BEING A KRAN ROCKS! (pun intended!)

The point is that Krans already have a natural armor, and putting leather on them gives no apreaciable bonus.

That is true, but I suppose its a question of setting, do krans care for clothes (they have no shame after all) if they do, to what extent, etc. But if the setting dictates that some do wear clothes then there is nothing wrong with kran wearing the leather simply for the look.

Kran don't wear clothes. As proven by:



This doesn't rule out small decorative elements, since the model at the moment has 'bracelets'. But fully-body-covering-non-protective materials don't serve any purpose. Kran aren't a race artistic enough to cover themselves completely with pretty shinies or similar :)

Right, that was my point.  Karyuu's point was that no armor smith would bother to put the effort into making them if they're not really going to be used.  In other words, Karyuu isn't going to bother to put the effort into making them if they're not really going to be used.  :)

I understand and, to repudiate the previous comments about Kran intelligence, I WOULD want to be able to take advantage of a [+mod] by EQUIPPING the armor in question (developed yet or not) and I, for one (and one alone), do not want the armor to SHOW even if I equip it! More than 2 cents and i give change in trias...or bread!

It would seem silly if they did. After all they are asexual and have nothing to cover up. Not to mention they are made of rocks.

This so does not belong in the Wishlist :P

Check this Kran reproduction thread.

ON TOPIC: This may or may not belong on the Wish List as I, as a Kran, do not want the concept or practice of 'armor-to-show-when-and-if-equipped' to be developed and others may. Ask the Kran!

OFF TOPIC: The JEALOUSY shown by the other races of the Kran in this thread is amazing! I argue three points, and will until the day I die (which as a created being - may never come):
  • INTELLIGENCE - You will never, EVER see a kran licking his own hind-end like one of those MENKI
  • SEXUALITY - I did read the Kran Reproduction Thread and it is full of guesses, but no facts. It is clearly spelled out in the Yliakum History that Kran are created creatures (Talad's own handiwork) and reproduce by magic - alll else is RP. Just ask the Ymmwn and Fenki (heh heh)
  • COMPOSITION - it has been said that Kran are 'made of rocks'...I submit to you that are we not all made of minerals, really? Kran just have more of it that others...hence, the jealousy

Having sufficiently stirred the pot and fanned the flames, exit our hero...stage right...
