  • A few things I wanted to address.

    1.  I think one important item to be careful of is over engineering things to make Grimkeep a worse experience. It would be nice to keep the old Grimkeep as classic so the option is there for it if the ch…
  • Good news for warriors is that you can assess wounds to get an idea of their state without needing any kind of internal tracking system. You would definitely want to set up highlights and need to practice, but it's doable without a system. I would s…
  • I will be honest, I have always been perplexed by people asking for coded alliance systems as I’m not sure what hard coded alliance systems will actually accomplish, and I suspect those asking for it were expecting some sort of changes in balance th…
  • Going to repeat her a comment I made on discord.

    Leave who/qwho functionality as is (or change it to a different command with the same functionality), gem removes you from the list, shows plane only (ewho untouched as well). Make a new ty…
  • Here is Calliope appearing before Uzriel in Magnagora, who in no way encourages the creation of a monster. https://ada-young.com/pastebin/nol1DdWS
  • Is it possible somebody from the admin team can explain how the cipher we found in the aethership was transformed into the second stage we tried to decipher with Seruldin and Ghalib?

    There were a couple of cipher lovers the day between tr…
  • (Quote) 1.  There's a couple of Magnagoran rooms I like, hard to pick just one. The Bridge of Torment is so evocative and unique. The top of the construction site, and d'Murani gardens have great ambients of sunrise/sunset (and the constructi…
  • The Butcher Bridegroom is probably one of my favorite Mag plays. Intrigue, shade, twists, and just the right length.
  • Another couple of questions here!

    1. What is it you enjoy most about being godadmin? Ie, what got you through ephhood/keeps you logging in still?

    2. What's something you've found unexpectedly difficult (could be behind the scen…
  • In relation to my other thread about potential library ideas, going to bump this thread. Feel free to add your recommended reading lists here!
  • For all the newer Godmin.

    1.  What was it about the role that made you decide to pick it?

    2.  Do you have a favorite easter egg that you can share (could be a description, mob response, etc)?
  • (Quote) My mental image for her voice was something like Emma Stone's Cruella role.
  • In response to Lisaera’s questions:

    1. Answered before but it’s still Edwin d’Vanecu. A scientist-necromancer who is also hilariously quintessential millennial.  Second place would probably goto the nereids as a whole (want to tour one ar…
  • Double post but I think it’s worth saying that most Magnagorans are not being jerks to other Magnagorans (maybe old Magnagora was like that but it’s really not like that today). So saying we are being play mean discriminating is far from the mark. <…
  • All characters start with a free reincarnation and I’ve heard some people say they would buy a racehat for people stuck with a contemptible race (they are not expensive at all). I don’t think it’s at all a case of needing to pay to buy your way out.…
  • What it comes down to is really. If you want to have an experience where you can gain rank in Magnagora, and generally be accepted by everybody. It’s not going to happen as a kephera, merian, or elfen. Whenever people of those races join the Society…
  • I'll echo the above that having a shared google document is pretty key. Some other items.

    1. Start planning early. Real life can rear its ugly head, and things can just take longer than you might expect, especially with multiple people ne…
  • I don't really see why any mechanical additions to guilds would need yet -another- form of advancement instead of using the existing ranks. If somebody does something above and beyond that's worth some points, you can manually give them points witho…
  • Somebody can correct me if I'm wrong, but if you feel somebody is just shouting down anything said and it is stressful to argue back and forth about it - comments are still allowed after consideration phase ends, and admin can see them but other pla…
  • This is A+ pretty great.

    If there's a way to show an example of how to chain areas in the genrun that would be sweet. Aka, run through all kephera hives, or run through multiple elemental planes.
  • (Quote) 1. Lavinya sent me a Luciphage doll at a time when they were -impossible- to find, pretty sure they weren't showing up in doll packages so only old ones were around.
    2. Let's see. Uzriel is a Magnagoran, Necromancer, mad scientis…
  • My comment about hooks for other orgs to be a villain was specifically about future events and nothing to do with the current one, which again I greatly enjoyed.
  • Many of the Mags that joined with Li did not do so to just be the villain, there were compelling reasons for it which was sort of my point. I’m a little resentful at that implication that Mags joined just to troll the Basin. Any org has the potentia…
  • Sapphira summed up my thoughts fairly well as well. I will especially highlight her comment about members of the Coven being mocked on OOC clans (even moreso that they are in) is not okay. As she said, things would be quite boring if nobody chose to…
  • I'll be mostly away this coming Wednesday until Labor Day, the 25th through the 5th.
  • (Quote) Completely agree. I really like that area both for the lore and the way the hidden objects are done. It also was a really good teaser for the ascension event, as I was already invested in the Li-varili storyline before she was even re…
  • A few additions to what Tyrus said.

    1.  Experience, gagging non-essential text, and highlighting important text. Obliviousness is a crutch you can use at first but you'll eventually want to ween yourself off of it. Once you have highlight…
  • One big concern I think that should be considered is one that the institute has shown, wherein a class with a very good kill path that doesn't rely on their tert at all to achieve it can be a real beast in combination with the healing skillset. I do…
  • Here’s one.

    For whatever reason (ignoring the fact that they might not willingly have), your god role took the elixir in the Elder Wars. How would they have been changed, and what would they be doing today?

    Inversely for any el…
  • (Quote) 1. Don't really have one. Maybe it would be a dried flower, I don't know?
    2. Branch out from geochemantics sooner, you'll thank me for it.
    3. To form a cult to <redacted> in Drocilla's order and learn more about <re…
