Re: PvP Rules Clarification

I agree completely Harroghty and thanks for the clarification. The only thing I would like to add is the old saying "IC actions have IC consequences". If your character is mouthing off or insulting another person's faith or anything like that I find it extremely poor RP to say OOC, nope, n...

Re: Soldiers and Scale-able Mobs

I have to say I really like this idea Beskytter and thanks for offering it as a well thought out suggestion. I think this is a good thing to implement and I would like to see more minions usable in combat. From my experiences with use of minions in combat on FK I haven't found them that helpful with...

Re: Fury and Forest Fires

To address your specific questions about Malar and Talos: The Dogmas between Talos and Malar aren't really at odds with each other, as they both embody chaotic nature. Talos is the leader of the Gods of Fury, so Malar is subordinate to Talos but doesn't exactly like him. This old thread from back in...

Re: Tournament questionnaire

Although I didn't participate in the tournament directly I found it a lot of fun to watch. There are a few things I would suggest: In the past I remember there being tournaments for the different classes and the winner actually got the hero title, so for instance the winner of the Mages guild was th...

Re: Gathering of the Storms

This event happened a few hours later than originally planned but we managed to still get together and had a really good turnout and some really fun RP. Thanks to everyone who attended, I enjoyed it. If you weren't able to attend due to the timing there will be some more events in the future.

Re: Gathering of the Storms

My apologies to everyone involved in this as I was unable to make the event at the time planned to host it. One of the disadvantages of living where I currently do is sometimes frequent and unpredictable power outages and one such power outage decided to strike for the entire day this Sunday, making...

Re: Gathering of the Storms

I realized that there is another teaching event occurring on January 9th, therefore the date will be moved to the 10th:

Gathering of the Storms

***Black crows traverse the realms, carrying a scroll of plain parchment*** To those that heed the call of Storms: Hereforth is announced a gathering of storms. This is a summons for all of the faithful of Talos the Destroyer, and others who wish to witness the power of the Storm Lord. There will be...

Re: Detect Divination

Yes, but just because it doesn't exist doesn't mean it can't exist :) I was thinking it would just be a passive skill that you have a check of succeeding or failing depending on how high your skill level is. Every time someone casts magic mirror on you, or clairvoyance, or any of those kinds of spel...

Detect Divination

I was thinking this would be a pretty neat skill and would make sense. It would be for wizards, and possibly priests, or any spellcasting class. This skill would allow the player to be able to detect when someone casts scrying magic like magic mirror on them. I was reading some FR books and in a lot...

Re: Mobs for quests and insta-death spells

Thanks for the responses. Yeah I see what you mean Jaenoic that makes sense. I was just wondering if the mobs were actually supposed to be casting those types of spells, if they are that's fine, thanks.

Mobs for quests and insta-death spells

It looks like a certain mob for a quest that I was doing casts insta-death spells, and since it's part of the quest that this mob attacks you it presents a little problem with completing the quest. Is it ok for me to post the name of the mob? (didn't want to put up IC info without OK first) And is t...

Re: 'You slam yourself into a wall'

Sorry I didn't post up some different echos for this Lathander :) I think just changing it to 'Alas, you cannot go that way' would work pretty well, like it is for the outside areas.

'You slam yourself into a wall'

I was wondering if this echo could be changed? Granted it makes for some funny pretty situations but it doesn't seem to make any sense IC. No one's going to just throw themselves at a wall trying to get through lol.

Re: Inappropriate darkness

I'd like to add that in the path in Ardeep if you're not carrying a light it is dark, even during the day. Having a light fixes it, just seems a bit odd.

Re: Mobs assisting PCs then killing them

I'd also like to say something like this also happened to me when I was helping Cluggan, when I helped him kill a mob for a quest he cast weird and killed me.

It also appears that Dierdre also casts insta-death spells.

Re: [Spell] Find familar

Ooh I most definitely like the ideas in this thread :) It'd make familiars more useful for wizards, I like the idea of being able to spy through your familiar, maybe a telepathic link where you could actually see what your familiar sees and tell him where to go? (Basically you become your familiar a...

That's not what I meant Dalvyn. I was pointing out that a large majority of characters that do hop on feel that way. I was actually using myself in that example, when I first hopped on this MUD that's EXACTLY how I felt, I just wanted to kill things and have fun, I wanted to RP but I wanted to explo...

Re: Experience and Training

Thank you for all the clear answers Dalvyn :) It really cleared up a lot of misconceptions that I, and I'm sure a few other players had. I see where you're coming from when you talk about spreading the levels out. I however disagree with slowing down on levels 1-9, I think those levels are there to ...

I recently decided to make a new wizard so I start him out and everything, everything's great, I start killing dummies. I jump through the first 4 levels fine, great. Then I realize my exp has dropped to an absolute CRAWL, I mean I was killing dummies for at least 30 minutes and got about half a lev...
