It gets pretty frustrating though no matter who it is. I love getting to know new people, getting a feel for them, and then considering whether they would be a good fit for the family. Then I usually find out they were asked by another family within the first couple of hours after starting the game, and I wonder why I bother.
I feel the same way about adopting folks for my family. I've been pretty lucky lately, I've had people approach me but I usually lose out to other families.
I must have smelled then Everyone says they all got invited to a family like instantly and no one invited me....pooor sad little orphan me ......
@Veyils Most of the glom families are well established. They're not really in competition with anyone, and they're not in danger of losing great house status. This means they've got no reason to be as aggressive about recruiting as some.
If it's any consolation, I've heard several people just this past week express the desire to adopt you. They don't approach because you're already engaged.

You're engaged, nobody is adopting you
Avurekhos says, "Dylara's a PvP menace in my eyes, totes rekting face."
The eye of Dylara materialises in your hands and flings itself around your neck, tightening incomprehensibly until it is irremovable. Perfectly clean, this eyeball has been wrenched from the socket of Dylara. It has been animated by some unusual force, constantly looking around itself as if in shock or fear. It is bathed in a light covering of white flames that roll endlessly over its surface. A single chain of empyreal metal pierces either side of the eye, allowing it to be worn around the neck.

Yes, there's a bit of Serenguard drama right now. But how often does that happen? I'd say one meltdown every 4-5 RL years is pretty darn good.
Everiine is a man, and is very manly. This MAN before you is so manly you might as well just gender bend right now, cause he's the manliest man that you ever did see. His manly shape has spurned many women and girlyer men to boughs of fainting. He stands before you in a manly manerific typical man-like outfit which is covered in his manly motto: "I am a man!"

Pony power all the way, yo. The more Brontaurs the better.
I wasn't adopted for at least 75 years, I don't think. Then after I got confirmed, Ishant, Astraea, and Leiliadhe all immediately went inactive and I was super disillusioned. It's not all good things and in the end, I didn't miss too much from not being in a family.

This is what happens when you bottle up the drama for 5 years. It explodes like a can of coke you left in your car during a winter freeze. Like a sorority girl face first into a toilet after drinking a bottle of Jack. Like...well you get the idea.

Ragniliff was somewhere between 90 and 100 years old before she ended up in a family, too. I really wouldn't put much stock into it!
We were happy to blood bond Raggy in

The purpose of writing is to inflate weak ideas, obscure pure reasoning, and inhibit clarity. With a little practice, writing can be an intimidating and impenetrable fog!
Everiine said: The reason population is low isn't because there are too many orgs. It's because so many facets of the game are outright broken and protected by those who benefit from it being that way. An overabundance of gimmicks (including game-breaking ones), artifacts that destroy any concept of balance, blatant pay-to-win features, and an obsession with convenience that makes few things actually worthwhile all contribute to the game's sad decline.
Can we just like mass wipe skinrot? People are intentionally keeping it to infect people. Normally this doesn't bother me, but I'm not a fan of essence constantly being thrown away because someone feels the need to be an asshole.
Or maybe even have the machine be tweaked to continuously rain for an in-game day so people who aren't around at the exact moment it hits still get the benefit? It won't do anything to skinrotalt hiding in a manse, but it'll seriously derail their ability to troll.

I must have smelled then

on the other hand, SS has been great.
Edit: Of course this is a sliding range so there's really only a handful of characters that fit the bill.

I see you.
"Let me...illuminate you," said Shuyin as be brushed Sidd's dark hair from his bleary, whiskey eyes.
"She doesn't matter," whispered Shuyin as he laid Sidd gently atop a pile of corpses to rest atop the twitching body of Ymuli.
Shuyin leans in, his tongue brushing against Sidd's whiskey scented lips, the bitter sweet flavors as entangled as their bodies
"You must have used Lust on me," whispered Sidd, "because I just can't reject you."
Also you can reject lust.
6/10 probably would read the rest
Edit: Any plot holes can be explained with the multiverse of the Xynthin event so I'm bumping it to 7/10

I laughed. Quite a bit.
Tonight amidst the mountaintops
And endless starless night
Singing how the wind was lost
Before an earthly flight
