Good work as always Jane!

[!] As Monkey Peregrin skims over the document, he cannot help but pause upon the image of himself and discussion of his family. He then began to rub his eyes, shaking his head, "Still... blurry. Tew blurry fer moi loikin'." He said with a sigh, "Hopefully oi'll be able to fully recover t'e Bloomerville Period soon. T'en, oi suppose oi shoul' talk wit' Greta." He said before wandering off.

I believe the tattoos are nice, and I like the idea of small marks on peoples' skin, it can be used in a variety of ways and is harmless. However, as stated above, the whole-body aesthetic is janky IRP, and seems hard to skin properly mechanically.

 

Big agree with this yeah. I'm all for magic tattoos though, and have seen a few cool ones on the server :)

Very cool to see all the old janky plugins getting updated, honestly. It's been an issue for a while and I'm glad you were willing to put vortex in the back seat in order to focus on revamping it.

With that said, HOOKAHS ARE BACK POGGGGGGGGGGGGG

"In moi defense, they looke' loike cookies." The Quartermaster says, feeling sorry for himself.

Iheiu Aylir looks over the poster, his jaw dropping in utter shock as he recoils backwards from the poster, "How could they?! Those dirty killers at Northlandgrad! I remember when they burned cats in the street of Sutica!" He said jokingly as he continued his fishing preparations.

Monkey Peregrin read over his Brother's letter, rubbing his eyes as a few tears streamed down his face. "Yew will be misse', Mistah Ashfoot." He said as he rummaged through his desk. He soon came across an old, worn painting of James and Monkey in front of the Bloomerville Speakeasy. "Moi brot'er, ferever an' always. Oi'll never forget yeh."

Due to the new hosting service, we will be migrating all posts over to the Dream SMP Wiki so they are not lost after 72 hours. We are very appreciative towards Dream's wiki admins for allocating the space necessary to contain our precious world lore. We hope to collaborate further with them (and perhaps the Dream SMP youtubers themselves) in the future.

I will make use of this newly freed up space to add guns to the server.

Finally, some real work getting done.

But actually Just go through and do a big clean of archives and posts that aren't relevant instead of deleting all of our forum stuff. This is literally how we keep track of things.

I propose we shift hosting sites to Reddit.

[!] A missive was posted around the village, seeming to have been written in Monkey Peregrins handwriting.

"Dear Halflings of Bramblebury,

Last night, in the afterparty of Jeannette and Sorrel's 33rd Birthday, I was headed home after drinking a few ales from the tavern.

On my route back to my home, I saw our beloved Ambassador standing at the point of 5 Blades.

5 masked men, all armed, one with a bow and the rest with swords, seemed to be mugging the poor woman.

[!] Here is a neatly drawn depiction of the 5 bandits.

I issue a warning to all halflings traversing our area, along with a challenge!

We must bring these men to justice for the sake of our village's safety!

For the Honor of the Race!"

How do you come up with a core idea for a character? Do you draw inspiration from others’ RP, from movies, books and other media? Do you even have a core idea when you create a character or do you start with a somewhat blank slate and allow RP interactions to shape the character thereon?

Frankly, I look at specifically character traits I want to play in someone and then look to hobbies. It can be easy to flesh out a character's personality first based on either yourself or just 'what sounds cool' before molding the backstory around it. Alternatively you could start as a bland no interests baby and morph it to their life experiences.

Do you post interactions from in-game on the forums you find impactful? Does this help you flesh out your character? Is it for others’ sake?

Haven't ever tried this so I suppose it's a personal thing. Usually I just remember them and occasionally bring it up in conversation with the player.

In practice does the idea you have for your character get fulfilled when you finally start playing the character? Does it fall flat in comparison to what you believe it would achieve?

Personally I go in with absolutely no expectations. Even still, I feel this happens to everybody eventually, and sometimes you have to find other things that weren't even planned from the start. For example, my concept for my current main (Monkey Peregrin) originally started out as a travelling bard without and real set home. Before I knew it, he was adopted by a long line of tinkerers and became one himself. Now, he's a Farseer Shaman.

The point is, don't always try and railroad you're roleplay experiences, and let them more come naturally.

Do you already have some semblance of an idea for the character’s conclusion before you play it? Do you let RP dictate when your character has reached its conclusion?

I don't think I've ever actually started with a conclusion, no. I know for most human players and such they have to stick to the whole "Have kids, do this, do that" but as a Halfling player, I have never really seen the need to plan things out. I find it much more enjoyable to fall into things.

How do you deal with failure?

 

No powergame no metagame lole.

But seriously, don't have an answer with that one. If you fail at a persona, I would just pick it up and try again or go a different route entirely.

Also, for a final note, the more random personas the better. It gives a lot of depth so you don't get burnt out easily. My two current main personas are a Shaman Halfling and an Epiphyte who wants to conquer the world.

Even if a CA race doesn't have a huge impact on the average LOTCers roleplay, why should that matter if the people playing the CA race are having fun with it? We play games to have fun, and as much as LOTC tries to be something greater, we are ultimately still a game.

gotta agree with this ngl
