Kai Osprey has been banned from the server for breaking rule 2, what used to be our mature content rules.

The player had been warned more than once in the past about mentioning SA or other highly sensitive topics in public without giving others a chance to avoid it or not be involved. Today's repeat performance and ignoring of that warning has crossed over the line as far as breaking this core rule for the server. We do not allow characters to threaten one another with SA, and no, we don't care about what your character sheet says under alignment. Due to the repetitious nature of breaking our rules and the past history of skirting them, we have decided to remove the problem.

If you have any questions about this choice or wish to argue against it, please do feel free to DM any of the admins on the forums or over Discord.

Piper, also known as "MinxXy" or "Moxxie" has been banned from the server for multiple reasons.

The biggest two of these are ban evasion on Discord (having also been Kabran,) and identity theft of a real person, to the point where we have had to consider the legal ramifications of their stealing pictures and other personal identifying information, including posting their stolen pictures on the Discord.

While this would usually be let go with a warning, they have shown in their history on the server for 4+ years to continually duck out as soon as they've done something wrong enough to warrant a talking-to, only to come back as a new identity. This is not a problem for typical players. We don't really care what name you choose to use, nor what you do. The problem comes when that leniency is used to bypass any sort of consequences, only to repeat the exact same behavior upon changing their name and coming back. This newest iteration is their fourth different account on the server, and we haven't seen their behavior change at all since the first.

Due to their repeated use of changing identities in order to escape bans or other reactions to their mistakes, we are banning all CD keys and accounts that are registered to their same IP address, and will continue to do so if they pop up yet again.

Quote from: Nymera on Apr 01, 2024, 07:51 AMWill there be an optional subscription for those of us who prefer to be scammed monthly and consistently?   8)

Of course! You can sign up to our Cormyr Collectibles of the Month club, where you can gather 1 randomly generated MS Paint drawing of a character that hasn't been played for at least 12 years! Along with them, you'll be granted the opportunity to invest in our NFT system of trading cards based on real-life gerbils in the Forgotten Realms campaign setting!

The cost is a mere $45.95 per month, plus tax, fees, and all applicable legal penalties.

Hello, everyone!

As you are well aware, inflation is rampant across the world and everyone is getting their cut of the pie. We on CD have certain costs, too, so we've decided to start monetizing this 22 year old game in order to make it more appealing for the DM team to DM for everyone in the way they have for free for more than two decades now.

In that vein, we are going to be selling CormyrBux, our new premium currency!

500 CormyrCoins will run you about $9.99 US, but only if paid for in hay pennies.
1500 CormyrCoins will cost $22.95 but only for those users that live in Hell, Michigan. For everyone else it will be $42.06(9)

1 CormyrBux is 10,224 CormyrCoins.
Per hour of event, 5 CormyrBux must be paid by the party.

We offer payment plans with an easy amortization rate of 33.3333~%, compounded every 13.37 minutes, with loan terms of 30 to 50 years.

Join us now over on CormyrShop.Sadaharu.Sophie'sSupplies.org to get your very own CormyrBux today! We also offer plushies for in-game consumption, DM speed boost tokens, lodestones (prank your friends!) and DM click-kill target tokens! All you have to do is stick the small 'Kick me' sign on someone's back and we'll take care of the rest.

Shop smart, shop Wicket's Surplus Awoos today!

It has come to our attention that we never specified any particular format for giving feedback on aDM quests, or DM quests in general! If you have feedback, please feel free to copy the form below and send it in to the sDMs/admins. They'll pass along relevant information on where to improve, and what players really enjoy, without attaching a particular name to said feedback! In this way, we hope to help the DM team improve without fostering any hard feelings between players or their storytellers. You do not have to use this form, it is merely provided for convenience.

Do you have a source in 3.0-3.5e books or supplements for this template?

Basically, it comes down to: Is it fair for you to gear up one of your own characters using metagamed knowledge?

Is it fair if you go dungeon on one character, and your other character mystically knows, instantly, that one of character A's party members has an item that they just happen to want?

Is it fair if you drop an item on the ground in a random hidden spot on the server, and your other character just happens to run across it 5 minutes later?

The answer to above being 'no'.

Is it fair for a player to sell things to a neutral shop, where anyone else can buy it? Yes.

Is it fair for a merchant player to forget where the items they sold came from, or from whom? Yes.

We don't penalize on an item that might pass from one character to another over the course of months/years. We do penalize someone that's using metagame knowledge outside of their character's wheelhouse(With or without cooperation from others) in order to gain an advantage unfairly, or to gear themselves up outside of the normal course of adventuring.

It's one thing to trade items around. It's another entirely to use one of your characters to benefit an alt directly, with or without your friends being a middleman.

We specifically haven't looked into this because it would involve editing every single companion's base reference for every single level (They get a new one each level), so it's something like 400+ template edits, not counting any subsequent edits that may be required if they're still undertuned, or worse, overtuned.

Rebalancing these would take tens to dozens of man hours that could be spent on other server coding or systems projects, when the companions aren't really meant to be that much of a boon. CD is built around party play, not solo + summons/companions.

No alignment restriction: What part of having a strict code and lifestyle leads to chaotic characters enjoying the class?

Special:
I don't think monks need *more* speed, it's already uncapped way higher than other characters.

Sneak attack:
Why does this belong on a monk? What part of their training leads them to be sneak attackers?

Ki Blast - Why not, I guess.

Improved Evasion - Why make this later?

Shortsword - Suppose doesn't matter too much to add.

Mighty Rage has not, at the moment, been altered in what it does, just the requirements.

General Discussion / swordmage unite

If you'd prefer, we can chat live on the Discord #Mechanics_discussion, and I'd be happy to help you craft a build sheet with you.

~ SM wants 16-18 CHA, usually DEX or STR otherwise.
~ SM wants Empowered Arts and Practiced Incantations, usually their melee focus.
~ Dex SM's can hit mid 70s AC in epic levels, but 'it depends'.
~ SM damage depends highly on their weapon choice and what sort of gear they use, *and* if the person knows how to play NWN in general.
~ Items are dependent on overall build and goals, as well as what you find.
