An update. I am becoming pervasive.

For those keeping score at home: Third use of Norman Reedus. He's my muse. That's just what's fucking up.

Welcome to 'full Sluagh takes Commanding Voice to not be restricted to speaking softly and suffering the -2 penalty' - land.

I love Fantasy Name Generators, because you can pick by RL ethnicity, or by Star Wars race, or by... well, a whole lot of criteria.

I recently found this list of hobbies/pastimes that is useful for background skills/character flavor:

@surreality said in Echoes in the Mists - CoD 2e MU:

...this would be the ad thread, I believe.

The threads we’re not supposed to be having discussions in?

I had a thought about the Activity portion as I was reminded about the purpose of the three prong method. Character development.

I can see playing a character who begins as 'inactive'. The sort that chills in the bars or chitchats on the street with randos. All until a monster rampages the coffee shop or swarms of rats flood his street. It's a classic call to action and now ChillBro has to act!

Same can be said for an Unlikable or Incompetent. Get nice. Learn. Shake and bake character development.

@skew Adding onto Skew's, I actually use one regexp to get all of my names into one highlight along with telling the system to only highlight it if it's a word by itself! To avoid the Mae vs Maelstrom thing. It's: ((Name1|Name2|Name3|Name4)(?!(\w|-))). You can do however many names you want divided by | (which is just an OR marker). I personally find it easier to just have the one highlight.

@misadventure It is amazing how many people don't understand that. We need the failures in order to make the successes have meaning. If all we do is win all the time it is just /boring/ because there is no variety. Yet so many people cannot abide failing at anything...

It is strange.

OK second try since first post didn't seem to go up.

Been using Atlantis for years.
Three days ago my main world and all it's characters stopped showing any feedback from the mud (log in, return on commands, etc.). After some testing I can send commands, log in, but nothing is displayed to that screen. As far as I can see i don't have any gag commands.
After trouble shooting I did resolve it by turning all character events and aliases off, logging in and turning them all back on.

This whole thing lead to a couple of things I would like to ask for future knowledge base:
is there an easy way to copy events/aliases from one character to another?
is there an easy way to turn off all aliases for a world/character?

@Sparks - Thanks for all the amazing work so far and I look forward to V2.0

All the kids are doing it, so hot and fresh update.
