General Discussion / About Illy
Last post by Valeriana - Nov 17, 2024, 03:08 AM
I am banned over speaking out against bigotry over the silly wizards game, alongside others including staff members. I am banned from discord and only discord, remain gone for years and log back on only to be banned 10 min later without forewarning or attempted dialogue.

Not even an attempt at communicating. If you want to instead have a mature conversation about it, my discord is illy6666.

Just to update this, the player "Illy" is fully banned from the server, not just Discord. We never had to address it previously as they'd long since stopped playing prior to the issues with them in Discord, but due to their long history of disruptive and problematic behavior, both IC and OOC, they are not welcome on this server.

General Discussion / Re: Get to know your DMs!

DM Name: aDM Harlequin / aDM Kalaraq

Timezone: EST (GMT +5)

Availability: Depends on what I'm doing. Small ad hocs / NPC meets can be during the day while I'm at work sparingly, but usually my time to run a proper session during the week is from 7pm - 10 EST, and on the weekends from Noon - 10pm

Preferred Number of Players: 4. I prefer smaller plots to let each individual shine through

Preferred Length of Quest: Variable, usually in the 3-5 session mark for quests, with multiple quests as part of a plot. 1-3 hours per session

Thematic Styles/Specialties:
  • Far Realm
  • Realm of Dream
  • Faerie stuff on occasion
  • In general, planar activities and outsiders mucking about with the people of Toril
  • Fiends, Slaads, militant Celestials, others
  • Generally leaning for more "serious" plots over silliness.

Wishes to avoid:
- Racial lore heavy plots. There is so much reading I would feel like I need to do to do elf/drow/dwarf/gnome lore justice, more than I am frankly willing to do.

Current Plotlines:
- None that are shareable or open ended.

Miscellaneous Notes:

  • Mechanical Rules: /touchon, /diceprivate, speak in questchat or die. Hold on new area for emotes and the "Free to Move." Ask before leap/fly/dd
  • If you have a character biography page, please link it when signing up for a quest.
  • I will reserve the right to alt players who have been unusually highly quested recently.
  • Be proactive. I won't always lay out a clear path for you, and will even lay obvious red herrings to steer you off of it. Take initiative, find the best outcome for yourself.
  • Some inter-party conflict is acceptable, if there's a reason for it. Don't pick fights for the sake of picking fights, but stand up for yourself in the name of your character's morality.
  • I do check the quest request forum, but directly messaging me is preferred if you know I'll like running it.

Some small changes have been made to the bleedout system so that healers more often have time and opportunities to heal up downed allies past the early levels.
- Entering bleedout now always starts you at 0 if the hit wasn't enough to instantly kill you
- Bleedout limit is now -10 - Constitution Modifier. This takes into account gear and buffs. For example, a character with 22 constitution will now only die at -16.

- (Brownie race) Does not get Skill Focus: Hide nor Skill Focus: Move Silently anymore, since those were given as compensation for the capped skill bonuses they had. Both feats will automatically be removed from existing characters

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.

Guess what we are human. Sometimes humans suck. All we can do is try to suck less and bring joy when we can.

You're not a sucky human in general. Whatever you did that was sucky can be forgiven.

You are loved

I understand that, I heard that creating new outfits is very hard for this game, unfortunately I canĀ“t help with that otherwise I would. I want to see man of Cormyr in better condition, that is for sure. Well, only thing I can do to support them is to make a male character on my own now  8)
