The ambient commoner scripts could probably be removed. They don't add altogether much (There'd be still the 4 or 5 in each area wandering randomly, but all the chatting and cross-area stuff would stop, which should also eliminate the mass spawn-in nobles)

I came back to playing with the intentions of putting most of my effort onto an NWN 2 server, for various reasons.
I made a completely unthought through melee character on CoA, mostly for kicks, and because I enjoy the place. Didn't really think the stats, skills or feat choices through, but mostly just winged it.

Turned out to be the most powerful, and most enjoyable character I've ever played on CoA. Go figure :)

He very quickly got a more worked out personality, a fleshed out background and some basic motivations.

And I did!

Hey just giving this a nudge.

I am looking to get people involved in the follow factions and will to work one on one on a concept.

Quest with someone that can healer that likes you.

That wasn't the point of the post but thanks for the input i'll have to remember the advice…..
The point is when you remove the most commonly used potions and have to buy from npc's it costs to much to be worth questing without a party maxed for profit.
Example.
Blur potions vs wands blur cost 132 gold per potion from npc's from a pc it costs on average 90 so to compare it to a wand thats 25 charges of blur on a wand made buy a pc for thr cost of 1125 to make so 1500 to buy.
25 potions from a pc is 2250 and from a store is 3300 thats more than twice the cost for the wand now is my point becoming alittle clearer?

@Loonayaa:

if the google spredsheet is used, there are a few typos in the god names to fix.

bad - good

Sgaress - Sharess (minor list)
Ubtau - Ubtao (minor list)
Ulutia - Ulutiu (minor list)
Yondala - Yondalla (halfling list)
Orsiris - Osiris (mulhorand list)

you guys sure work fast!

Corrected them now. Alos uploaded to coa.wikia.com

Also
Druids don't have to be feral uncivilized dudes. At one point prior to becoming one, it's entirely possible they were normal folks of one type or another, and didn't suffer some brainwashing identitity loss. There's extremes of course, but many will freely walk in the city, though they obviously prefer the outdoors.

The other one is to keep your personality separate from your class. It's a common pitfall with barbarians, clerics, paladins, and druids, especially if you choose your class before you characterize out your guy.

How ‘bout:

Shipwreck Cove- Small hidden cove complete with underwater cave(though there’s plenty of underwater caves, so maybe not.)
Gem Pool- Hidden tiny clearing off some forest.
Abandoned Brewery- Self explanatory.

EagleMan's Nemesis? Badgerman?

I had actually played with that thought a while ago, but maybe more like Skunkwoman or along those lines. :D
I haven't seen Eagleman on for a long time, is he still alive?

Anyway: For now I'm working with SyrusRayne on her concept as it fit my idea, and I liked hers. Thanks for all the feedback people. :)

Eagleman is quite alive and well, I have had computer troubles recently, so I havent been on much, should have it all fixed up by weeks end. That said, Eagleman could use a supervillan to fight. :wink:

It is a good oportunity to gather cohorts and minions…

Who wouldn't like to work with someone that amazing?

You just have to play with the odds...

@TheJaggedSoul:

Let's each roleplay our wizards the way we find most enjoyable, yeah?

Hear, Hear! Debate is good and really helps folks consider their style of play, but this has gone on.

@Crowley:

Paid assassinations and'' knocking people off'' are two very different things

The second option has been fine, but as Tomppa said there seems not to be a large market for a paid ''hit'' so to speak

Or specific assassins have made silly choices that upset potential employers. Making oneself hirable and trustworthy to actually carry out a job of such magnitude is a fairly important thing too.

1). Depends on the situation really. If they die on a quest and planned to respawn its pretty much unacceptable. If they plan to get a raise, it may be acceptable to take a few small items here and there. If you find a random corpse out in the wilds somewhere but the player is still in the Fugue, it may be acceptable to take items (that's the danger of traveling alone after all-you may die without friends around to help you). If you find a random corpse out somewhere, and the player isn't even in the Fugue still–I doubt anyone would think you out of bounds to loot the corpse.

2). Never call anyone a "complete jackass" it is simply not acceptable to degrade into name calling no matter how you feel about anyone.

3). If you think someone has broken rules, send us an e-mail. The General Discussion forum is simply not conducive to a useful conversation on this kind of topic. At worst, this belongs in the Ask a DM forum.

What the geek said.

Thanks!

Yes, PCs are the stars of the show, not NPCs. We will not likely ever go back to NPCs telling PCs exactly what to do.

I hear you can put the portraits in the override folder too. They won't load when making a character, but they still appear on other people's characters. So what you could do is just browse through the packs, find one or a few you like, and dump the rest in the override.

I actually do play a Tinsel Fairy…

Also, I never really noticed the signiature thing before, that's a handy thing to know as some people do have rather funny and/or distracting signiature's. But I myself am not too fussed about it really, seeing them on others' or my own posts.
I think it's nice to see different fonts aswell, itallics, colored inks and the like, but it's understandable that that option is rather limited.
I do agree with --lizard-man-- that IC posts should be kept to a minimum, after all, not everyone has forum access and some prefer to keep things to the game and not go forum warrioring.

It's nice that people are thinking about this and wanting to be considerate with their posting, but I don't think it anyone should be thought less of if they don't do it. :)

And I really am a Tinsel Fairy.
