Greetings all!

First post from a new Aenea player, so first things first: Thanks for creating this world, it´s fun to play here with all the little rewards and fresh ideas Aenea has to offer. I came here from a rather harsh and party-based PW, so things feel a bit different (your character can actually go to the privy without gathering a party first!). Very Happy

What i´d like to see is the possiblity to make skill/attribute checks in-game; this would only serve RP-reasons or maybe DM-interaction. So, what i have in mind is a command like that : check STR, wich rolls a d20, adds your attribute modifier and shows the result as a visible emote "Strength Check=14". Same goes for skill checks; check bluff, check intimidate and so on.
This would allow the players to at least use some of the obsolete skills like "persuade" for a little bit of roleplay.
Since i have no experience with module building and scripting, i have no idea how hard that would be to implement into the world, just wanted to let you know what i think would be a nice little addition to the great work you already have accomplished here.

Well, that´s it...keep up the good work, fellows! (Oh, i hope my english isn´t to weird; german player here!)

Cheers

One thing at my old PW was the Emoticon. You could use it to make attribute/skill checks, along with emotes, like "sit on ground" which would make you sit on the ground for a while. Or fall backwards/forwards. Allowed you to, you get the idea.

jazzable: Welcome to Aenea. As for you suggestion, that one's easy for me to do. Smile I think I'll add it next time I get the toolset open.

KangTheMad: You can try entering emote list into the chatbar. Very Happy There's one there (emote sitlong) that will keep you on the floor for a while.

Hey, jazzable, welcome to Aenea! You'll find a friendly and helpful playerbase, as well as a fantastic and gracious worldbuilder in The Amethyst Dragon. If you need anything, don't ever hesitate to ask around - there's usually a DM lurking around the corner ...

Hey, thanks for answering in hyperdrive-mode. You really do listen, don´t you? Wink
