Azoun IV is the answer

Not really doable in any sensible way, especially in any way that'd swap the VFX so it'd fit. Even ignoring that, it'd mean a full rewrite of every spell.

Simply post a request here https://forums.cormyrdalelands.com/index.php?board=77.0 and tag the DMs on the #support channel of the Discord

For now there's not much until you get a DM weapon with the Returning property. Some will be added in an upcoming loot update but it's thousands of items to edit so it's not quite ready yet.

We've mostly moved to Discord for everything that's not requests and notekeeping

It's kind of clunky yeah, though it can really tank an enemy's AC and there's not a lot of ways to do that, so it's particularly good in a group.

I don't dislike the idea of an alternate progression system that'd allow making more quests. Main problem is, well, implementing all of that. I'm pretty good at coding in new systems, but making "content" like quests/areas/etc is where I struggle.

I'm not sure I'd make it "fame", but it's definitely something to think about. I did want to look into some random bounty system that'd give people a reason to go dungeoning or exploring, but there's always the worry of making it just another XP source, so some alternate system could be worth looking into.

We've not really had any issue with it because PvP, while allowed, is extremely rare on the server. Metagaming incidents thus remain relatively rare as we're all collaborating while writing a story.

They'll be subject to Arcane Spell Failure

I'm not playing a cyricist, but I just wanna say, I love what you're trying to do here. Keep on with the madness.
