Being on an island =/= being a valid rework of other islanders

A grumpy old armored women grunts at the news "Seems Auda forgets their crimes against the Kharadeens and instead befriends the prissy dagger ears."

Creature bloat Transfig/Runesmith has the ability to create a servant that's incredible durable and strong through the use of their programming like magic, golems. Blood mage sees a golem and also wants an incredible durable and strong servant to do their bidding so they use their blood runes to bind a soul to armor, dreadknight. Mystic sees a dreadknight and wants an incredible durable and strong servant so they use the properties of ectoplasm to bind a soul shadow to a substance called menhir which forms into a suit of armor that's strong, durable, and heavy. Some time in the future we'll probably have another tank servant added to the list that utilizes the properties of that specific magic to create a sub class. Same goes for end games, death stalker, tree lord, Wight, etc. Magic Bloat You'll notice I put Transfig with Runesmithing earlier. They're so similar of a magic that they can create an almost identical creature. At the end of the day you could remove runesmithing and transfig would do mostly the same job, similarly you could remove transfig and runesmithing would do mostly the same job. The difference between them is the player bases associated with them. Runesmithing is a deity magic for the dwarves, transfig is a voidal magic so your standard mage would probably use it. If you remove one the other player base would be forced to take up the other one to do the same roleplay, something they may not like. I personally have never had a good rp with a dwarf so I avoid that player base. I assume this is why the split came in the first place, this player base didn't want to be forced into another player base to do the same job so they made their own magic. At the end of the day the different cliches are not gonna want to be forced to work together for significant parts of their free time . So they'll make their own magics and distribute it to people they think are good rpers. Rewriting how magic works In the end the only real way I can see things not turning out exactly the same is to make everything incredible broad. Instead of necromancy, mystic you now know Dark magic woo spooky. The difference between necromancy and mysticism is one deals with life force the other deals with ectoplasm, two different elements extracted from a soul or the product of a soul. Mysticism split off from necromancy by mixing life force and mana to make ectoplasm they can manipulate. How are you gonna split off from Dark magic woo spooky if it is just and incredible broad as it sounds. Now instead of Clerical/Paladins/Ascended there's L I G H T M A G I C. And voidal magic is just magic now, all one category. You turn arcane **** into fire . You bind arcane **** to an item and it does stuff. You're still gonna get a tank servant for each category but now there's only three, so who cares? That's the only way I can see this doing anything at all besides setting back years of work to zero for no reason. If you give someone the tools to split off into sub magics then they will. On a side note I saw someone mention making all voidal magics require the same amount of emotes to charge, that just seems not very thought out. If it takes me just as long to blow someone down with wind as it does for me to insta gib them with a ******* lightning bolt why would I ever use wind magic. It stops being a play style based system and becomes a "This is the right choice and this other choice is wrong" system. Cliches aren't a problem if every cliche has access to something.

Didn't we already have hawaiians

Everyone can afford a set of armor, even the urchin handicapped kid who can't hear or see. Because getting a set of armor mcly is a task even the most lazy can do. It's essentially like killing someone and then expecting the bowl they ate soup with, if you care that much go make one yourself. "If it's so easy why does it matter then" Because I just want to look good and have some armor I don't want to go grind iron every single time I die instead of finding some rp. I'm pretty sure the opinion to remove nexus crafting was based around the idea of getting rid of mechanics that force people to grind instead of rping, adding this would go against that.

Sounds annoying to deal with -1

Creature/Entity Application format: MC Name: SoberMutt Character's Name: Cerulean Character's Age: 10 Character's Original Race (N/A if not applicable): Wood Elf Transformed form: Bonzai Dryad Creator's MC Name: N/A Creator's RP Name: N/A Briefly explain the lore behind this construct or creature: Once in a female wood elves life they will feel a great urge to find a specific tree and go hug it and sit with it and stuff. If they ignore the call it will go away, if they follow it however and spend a lengthy amount of time with it they will become a Dryad. They'll take on an appearance linked with the tree like leafy hair or bark textured skin. If the Dryad doesn't return to the tree after a certain amount of time they will die. The Dryad feels things that happen to her tree, so if someone started hacking at it with an axe she'd feel every strike no matter the distance. Should a dryad die the tree will die with them, but if the trees die it will simply leave an Amber seed to be replanted and it will grow into another of that same tree, this can only happen once. If they leave it without planting it they will turn into a normal elf after a year. Bonzai Dryads are wood elf children who become dryads to saplings, should they choose to trim the roots of the sapling to keep it as a bonzai tree they will remain a child for as long as it's a bonzai tree.

There's been a few times I've actually taught new players how to roleplay correctly. Often they don't understand the difference between ooc and rp, where to go, how to go, they're prone to powergaming just out of pure inexperience. I think the application process should either be more indepth to ensure new players have a better idea of what they're doing or barebones to gate off low effort trolls and let the community teach them. I think a plugin that rewards Minas to established players who take on new players for a few hours is a good idea. Essentially they'd see theres a new player, type in a command and then that new player has a dedicated person to talk to for responsive questioning. The established player runs them through a few rp scenarious, gauges their knowledge of the more mandatory lore like the monks or their races lore and when the new player feels like they're comfortable enough they end the teacher link and the established player gets minas or some other reward. Cuts down the massive wall that is whitelist apps, reduces strain on AT, gives incentive for players to help new players, helps the new player feel more welcome and less confused (Trying to find your first rp is very hard for shyer players). Seems like it would bring in those players that don't like the imposing whitelist app and would help new players want to stick around.
