    Is there a way to have characters speak in a play without them appearing to be on stage? Like a voice-over type deal.

    Prompted by the request for a radio play. I know exactly what I want to do but am not sure I can do it.

    Any sufficiently advanced pun is indistinguishable from comedy.

    Just BACKSTAGE SAY. Whether the character is visible onstage or not, the audience will hear it.
    I used to make cakes.

    Estarra the Eternal says, "Give Shevat the floor please."

    What is this and what do I do with it?

    This vial has been fashioned by a highly trained artist from coral. There is a small stopper at the
    mouth.
    It has 114 months of usefulness left.
    It weighs 2 ounce(s).
    Fragrance sloshes about in it.
    It has the following aliases: vial, elixir, potion.

    Could it be an oil? For influencing?

  • It's from a fountain. I have yet to discover any actual purpose for it. Last time I came across some, I couldn't apply it or sip it so I don't know, it takes up space I guess?
  • What are the room and probe lines for node power levels?
  • VivetVivet , of Cows and Crystals
    Should be:

    Crackling <- Rainbow <- Motes <- Throbbing <- Glowing <- Crystalline <- Devoid

    The details are where it starts to get foggy, since it has been ages since I ran numbers. Each level should be around 200-250 power before the next tier, though. The exception would be the Gaudi/Halli nodes, which are hyperinflated and thus have a massive Crackling stage before dipping down into the rest.

    At Rainbow Hues, each hourly tic on astral should restore 100-120 power or so. If it gets to devoid, each tic restores only 1 power. Due to recharge times and how they scale down with each level, this is why most people will encourage you not to drain past Motes.

    Ok, this is where I'm confused then/ don't understand.

    Earlier today I had this:

    p node
    Raw power from the astral plane has condensed into large crystals that have melded together, forming a crystalline pillar. Several of the crystals have a slight inner glow.
    It weighs about 3472 pounds.
    It has the following aliases: node, crystal, power.

    the room line (on ql) was: A crystalline power node pushes up from the ground here.


    70 power later (headdress draws) and the node is empty.

    So the 7 levels are for the room line and not probing? Or is this 'inner glow' a new level?

    The node always looks the same when you probe it. you must look via QL to see the differences.

    Why does it take balance to send msgs?

    Or equilibrium, rather.

    Huh. I swear that probe changes (or at least the second sentence does) as well then. I remember always probing the hallifax/gaudi nodes and seeing them change and moving when it gets to a line about motes.

    Oh well. TIL.

    And this is a dead node:

    p node
    Raw power from the astral plane has condensed into large crystals that have melded together, forming a crystalline pillar. The crystals are dull and lifeless, having been drained of power.
    It weighs about 3472 pounds.
    It has the following aliases: node, crystal, power.

    Anti-spam, I think.

  • For music boxes - can you describe the sound it makes as part of the description? Or is this sort of thing not allowed?
  • How do you get to the Emerald Enclave? HELP EMERALD ENCLAVE isn't exactly specific...

  • PortiusPortius Likes big books, cannot lie
    It's in the Inner Sea. Third level, I think. Room number for the entrance is 37525.
    Any sufficiently advanced pun is indistinguishable from comedy.
  • Um, most of the inner see roomnumbers are in the 2k range, so that doesn't sound right.
    I know the ship wreck with the dove is like 16K instead....

  • The 37k room is in the Emerald Enclave, not the Inner Sea.

  • PortiusPortius Likes big books, cannot lie
    I figured it'd be easier to give the number for the first room in the Enclave rather than the sea room right next to it. I'm assuming that you have an autowalker that could find the place?
    Any sufficiently advanced pun is indistinguishable from comedy.
  • erm, my auatowalker can't find the enclave, just the sea room.

  • Hey, @Estarra , the newspost and the store don't quite say the same thing... do you get a stocking for every 5 you hang, or for every 5 you open?
    I'm Lucidian. If I don't get pedantic every so often, I might explode.

    Every five you hang. I got mine before I'd unwrapped any. So you can share with friends and still get the bonus stockings!



  • Hmm... Will have to see if other people will get them if they open 5 that are hung for them.

  • It would be nice if @Estarra could tell us what these 'limited edition' artifacts were. (hint hint wink wink nudge nudge)
  • The bonus stockings are accumulated by hanging, not unwrapping.
