Feedback: Bio Feature
-
So, I used the new bio feature (.setbio) to correct a spelling error that's been bugging me for months. It worked great! Thank you for adding it!
I look forward to seeing it used by players to document their characters' growth and evolution.

Mr Bacon is a bug fixing / feature introducing machine. Good effort sir.

[[Here's how to make bio edits]] before we get more people asking about it, here is what Mr. Bacon wrote in the changes to module thread:
Instructions of use for Bio Editting Chat Commands.
Creating a new Bio.
-Type .setbio NEW_TEXT_OF_BIO, and your bio will be updated to NEW_TEXT_OF_BIO.
Appending information to a bio
-Type .addbio TEXT_OF_BIO, and your bio will be appended with the text you just typed.
Reseting your bio
-Type .resbio, and your bio will be reseted to your creation's bio.Enjoy.

So, here's how I understand it…
Hope this helps… :)

Whoah. I didn't even realise this had happened with the bug-fixing revolution churning out brix lately. AMAZING.

This thing is awesome!
I'm already thinking of having two Bio set up. This makes Being Lycan easier. Have two set up for When your human and swap to your Other for when your Hybrid! -
Note:- Changing your bio does NOT equal a disguise unless under DM oversight! If you change your eye color and facial features and say you are in disguise without a DM, you are CHEATING. We do get an alert when descriptions are changed, so you will NOT get away with this.
Runic_wind's example is fine, since his lycanthrope/animal form obviously will look nothing like his human one.
However, we've already had cases of the above situation, where people redo their entire bio and claim to be under "disguise", so please remember you will face grave consequences if you are ever caught doing it without DM permission.
You can redo your entire bio as you like, just don't claim it as a disguise, please.

Would, similarly, changing it as a disguise when using other shape-changing effects be legal?

Changing ithe Bio for disguise purposes, with or without shape-changing or any other change, without DM authorisation is not acceptable.
Disgusies in any form without DM oversight are not acceptable.
Runic's example is changing the Bio to reflect the current state of the character, it does not form any part of a disguise.
