How to put this without coming off as a complete and total douche of a Gm....~shrugs~
Frankly, your character and attitude are a problem. The character itself it seems is a bit over powered and you refuse to play it as anything else.
In the bio it states he has high resistances to both magical and mortal wounds - but you have the clause in there that he has the same durability as a human. Going of this, if Sana is injured, being human, by the rain, your character would be as well.
It is not stated if the rain is acid, or magical. I have only given a result of what happens when it touches flesh thus far. It does not mean it is or is not acid.
Now, also in your bio you state the following - Skin: Dead-pale, like a corpse. - here in ooc you state - Woyadei's an undead soldier with fake skin and other-worldly bones, this situation should be absolutely normal to him. - that is one, no where in you bio, so that doesn't fly and two - not being told what the rain is made of or where it comes from you cannot by any stretch of the imagination state that this would be normal for your character. That is a God mod, only the one controlling what the rain is and where it is from could determine this.
Yes, setting is lore but much of what you are facing is not Lore based or has been altered greatly to put things at the level in which I choose to run this rp. That is a GM thing, but nothing I am placing into the rp is outside the realms of scenarios that have not already been run here on AQ in the past. (with the approval of admins and mods) - but honestly that is neither here nor there because the rp is on a generalized fantasy setting that fits lores background.
This rp, as I have stated before, is placing all your characters at a mid level range, except Sana who is a bit higher since she is for support and example that everyone can have a base line to draw from. So all characters will be effected in some way. It isn't down grading characters, it is keeping them playable instead of going - okay you are now at NPC level, too strong, start a new one. The skills, races, weapons, spells, possessions in almost everyone's character has something that isn't pure Lore and that is fine. That is part of what RP is, to create new and experiment. But it has to be within certain limitations and for me, the only true limitation is making something overpowered. (It just ruins the fun for everyone except the person in charge of character personally.)
Now normally, with certain things, I don't have an issue with a character not taking damage here and there or getting a one hit kill. These moments can and do happen in any rp. But to just assume that when you see one character suddenly take damage, name it what you will, assume what you will and determine you can go play in it as if it Where nothing is arrogance of the highest caliber that is not only aggravating to a gm and but an insult to others who are rping in such a way to drive character development.
With your character as is, the way you conduct yourself both in rp and ooc - it leaves little of anything of a reason to actually be in the rp other than to "show off."
I have run into these types before in rp, in fact the last Rp I hosted on Rpg with Sana had an undead that conducted himself in the same manner you do.
I was left with two options - ignore or kick.
Now you, I see potential. You could be an amazingly effective rper with a whimsical panache if you would step down from the box, take a step back and learn.
Why so blunt earlier with no explanation? Because previously trying to speak to you about anything that does not turn out your way has led to problems both in ooc, a barrage of pm's from rpers and even face to face irl debates with some about what is going on. It's a headache and I don't rp or gm for headaches.
Now, had you asked for more detail in ooc - I would have provided more information. Admittedly not much because I cannot say certain things ooc that could give too many details away ic.
Things like - Hey, Afi, I have a high resistance to magical and mortal wounds, how is this rain going to effect me personally? That I could answer.
Things like - is it acid? I couldn't yet because no character has yet to try to "examine" said rain.
Why didn't I just go ahead and say how it will damage each character individually? Simple, I want to see how each will react with the information provided. This lets me know who needs less guidance, who needs more and who is good to go and I can trust with more in-depth knowledge later on.
Again, I stated bluntly to you because explaining in the past has done no good and nothing seems to be learned. You have potential to be a great rper, but to be great in rp means more than writing well. It also means following the lead of the others, stepping up when needed and listening to the gm. Other rp forums Gm word is more than final, it is God and can get you blacklisted from future rps.
Now, will what I have said here make a difference or will I be faced with another long monologue that leaves me rubbing my temples say "why do I even try?"
The choice is yours.
Ask questions, I'll answer a much as a gm can without giving out too much information. Be a condescending rper who just won't listen and I'll be left with the ignore or kick option. (Which I have only kicked 1 person from rp in 30+ years of rp)
As far as Krey goes, he should be back from his Honeymoon on the 13th, so I suspect we will hear from them not long after that. I got to see pictures and video of the wedding, it was beautiful, but haven't heard anything since, so I figure he is just enjoying his time with his beautiful new bride. ^^
