The summoner/conjurer are wizards that particularly focus on summoning things into existence.Many of their spells are powerful but have high cooldowns Suggested spells are as follows Summon Eidolon- A signature spell for this type of wizard, the Eidolon is more than just a familiar, it houses a large part of the summoner's soul. The summoner may select from three different kinds of Eidolon, but once selected it cannot be changed. If the Eidolon is killed, the summoner is racked with pain but may resummon their Eidolon by recasting the spell. Conjure Stone Wall- Summons a Wall of Stone 3 tiles wide. The walls of stone are permanent unless destroyed. Conjure Hole- Summons a hole in front of the caster. The hole is somewhat illusionary and will disappear at the end of the spell. Summon Soulbound Sword- This sword is empty when first summoned, but comes with a free soul stone. The wizard can empower the sword by capturing a soul within the soul stone provided and affixing it to the sword. This gives the sword powerful properties such as the ability to attack by itself, and enchant its swings with Frost, Fire, or Lightning. Monster Manual- Summons a book of familiars that allows you to bring along a small wizardry companion in your escapades. Black Tentacles - Summons tentacles in a large area that attacks any non-wizards Staff of Animation-Allows the wizard to imbue life into an object, which will then proceed to attack anyone who is not the wizard. Staff of Change- Allows the wizard to randomly change anyone and anything into an alien, lizardman, cyborg, monkey or human. Although it has limited uses, it recharges it's magic over time. Smoke- Summons a cloud of smoke. Transmogrify - Transforms the caster into a duplicate of their chosen Eidolon, if no Eidolon has been selected, the wizard will be prompted to select a type of Eidolon to transform into. Gate- Summons a permanent gate that connects two locations. If another gate is cast, the oldest of the paired gates will disappear. Summon Party-This spell was invented for the sole purpose of getting crunked at 11am on a Tuesday. Summon Bats- Summons a flock of space bats to the caster's location. Who will immediately attack all non-wizard folks.

If this is an official ruling, you should probably state so, although I doubt this issue can be resolved this quickly, especially since Ezuo has not even responded to any of this themselves. Furthermore, even discounting the bias, I don't know why its unexpected for a mod to give someone the courtesy of asking, or barring that, waiting for someone to answer. The fact you have reached this conclusion so quickly does not really give me the impression you have investigated the issue at all.

Perhaps you misunderstand. I was not clear with the answering part. No, its impossible for them to resolve my ahelp because they are not an admin and do not have the permissions to start any kind of event. They can answer it, they can even ask someone for me, both of these things are not hard, nor are they particularly disruptive to anyone involved. The unwarranted hostility is revealed because they did not even try to. If they do not try for staff, why would they try for a player? What if another player suggested they speak to another admin regarding an administrative issue? Key details could be lost because of this lack of communication. This, coupled with me asking to spice up the round that they are involved in is a reason to suspect Bias. I do not think we will achieve anything more productive from the continued reiteration of this topic and suggest we await the resolution of this matter with whoever is assigned this complaint.

Except, its impossible for them to answer my ahelp, as I specified it was for an admin. Additionally, the offical policy, as written on the moderator criteria page is quoted If it is discouraged then they should have passed it off to someone else, as they were the CMO of this round. Additionally, Ezuo had no way of knowing if I had or had not already spoken with the admins concerning a mini-event, so this point is moot.

I have personally ran a few mini events, with flamingo in particular much in this way. I am aware that several other mini events also progress in this way. In any event, this is largely off topic, as the complaint as listed in my reasoning indicates that the reason for the complaint is their failure to notify anyone when asked, and their dismissal of the idea, when they are personally involved in the round.

Again, this is incorrect. There is no official mechanism to prepare, request, validate or adopt a event. I should know, as I tried to get one passed with jackboots for the very reason you described. The attempt thus far has been ignored as you may see in our staff channels. There is no official way to approach an admin about adopting a event, and each admin has their own preferences concerning such.

Except, this is not the case. Every lore dev at one point or time has asked to start a event or mini event. Simply asking such should not warrant a hostile response, nor should it be answered by a mod, because it is not an issue they can address.

BYOND Key: BygoneHero Staff BYOND Key: Ezuo Game ID: bU4-bpl4 Reason for complaint: Status Quo Bias towards their want to keep the round as it is.(They were the CMO) Closing ahelps without following up on requests. Evidence/logs/etc: ] Additional remarks: It took a little less than 3 minutes to contact both admins, who were on the server at the time. Instead of attempting to contact them, Ezuo closed my ahelp, even when I informed them that the question was for administrators, neither was contacted by Ezuo. This dismissal out of hand and being needlessly confrontational (you will need to live with that fact) is evidence of bias and is not something moderation staff should exhibit, especially in this situation, which is neither a situation of an administrative action or a rule violation. I do not believe Ezuo understands that it is not their job to handle a question for admins as they did, especially when I was clear in my second response that the question was for an admin. I also do not believe Ezuo would have been unduly troubled in contacting either admin in this case about my question, as I achieved a response from both within 3 minutes after the conclusion of our ahelp exchange. I believe this complaint was reportable, as continued activities like this can create a hostile environment where players will not want to ask questions pertaining to rules, rounds or otherwise.

I've edited the OP with all the needed info on the page, you no longer need to scour another wiki to understand it.

You don't need a whitelist to play the antagonist................its in the post..............

Setting Ever since the Elyran invasion, when the Lii'dra first realized the potential of humanity, and indeed the galaxy as a whole they have taken to using more insidious means to study and attack their targets. We have seen the results of their work, in the form of black kois, a bio-weapon capable of connecting the infected into the Lii'dras VR overmind. This however, in turn, infected the Lii'dra overmind with the thoughts of those that it infected. Black kois was a useful experiment, but ultimately a dangerous one. In an effort to better understand, and to not make the same mistake again, the Lii'dra have dispatched stealth ships to kidnap and study the various species of Tau Ceti. To learn from them so as to not make the same mistakes that they made before, to make the Orion Spur ready for the arrival of the main host of the hive. Design Mechanically, this game mode will be an almost direct port of tg/stations Abductor Certain features, such as the existence of greys will be replaced with Vaurca. Additional glands, as well as equipment, can be made available to the research team to give an additional insensitive to research. Because Lii'dra are so different from traditional Vaurca, a whitelist will not be required to play this antagonist. Any player may be chosen if their preferences are enabled for this round type. The primary design is as follows- In the round type Abduction, two to three players are selected as the rounds antagonists, the titular Lii’dra abductors. Of the abductors, there are one of two roles they need to assign before continuing, One of the abductors must be the scientist,the person performing experiments on people abducted. Their duty and equipment are as follows In addition to this, the scientist is responsible for the actual implantation of experimental glands/implants. The surgery is performed by the following but will need to be changed somewhat in order to match our current system of surgery. The next role of the abductor is the agent, or the person responsible for performing the physical abductions. Their duty and equipment is outlined in the following. In addition to all of the above, the abductors will have a starting area that will need to be mapped in. Similar to the wizard starting area or the ninja starting area. The area does not require new zones mapped in, as the abductor's ship does not need to move. Everyone from there or brought there will be teleported in. The physical mapping and tile sets can be looked over during the development processes, but in any case, this is some of the equipment that will be available on the UFO Possible glands that can be inserted into the crew for the purpose of experimentation are as follows. This list can be expanded upon or edited during the developmental process. Planned additions Allow the harvesting of biomass from crew, akin to REVERSE cloning, allowing the creation of Lii’dra Warrior forms such as bipedal Za. Also, the collection of biomass itself could be an alternative entirely to simply experimenting on people, giving the mode a type of GO LOUD kind of playstyle. Such playstyle would use the unique Vaurca weapons such as the Tachyon Rifle/Carbine and the Gauss Rifle, some found already in code and in the up and coming PR, found here.https://github.com/Aurorastation/Aurora.3/pull/4885 Design Essentials It is essential that Greys are replaced with Vaurca It is essential that the theme of the round be focused upon implants and biotechnology, areas that the Lii'dra are undisputed masters within. Future Improvements/Areas of Likely Change I believe that beyond code issues some sprites, as well as additional sprites may be needed. Beyond this, the mechanics are sound, and can provide exciting new role play opportunities with proper balancing.

Removing nuance by streamlining mining gear progression is anti RP. People are interacting with the mechanics and not other players. Why should a miner ever leave mining when the devs gut cross department reliance. Just because it's inconvenient to not have a scientist does not mean that inconvenience is something to be removed. It exists for a reason.

Mining powercreep too real

There were some concepts for an unused final part of the Black Kois infection that would see players transformed into more permanent zombie-like Liidra puppets, but ultimately it undermined the roleplay of the game. Sure, in lore the infection can be fairly protracted with hoards of infected roaming around doing the Liidras bidding. The problem arose as to how to package the crisis that we wanted to tell in the game in the span of 2 hours, while still retaining the core theme. This meant making black kois fairly lethal, though the most recent update has changed its infection rate since the last major spread. As for your idea, I've made a concept 1-3 players are chosen as Lii'dra agents that start on a ship away from the station. They are equipped with gear to organize and attack the station, with their main and most devastating weapon being black kois. The selection of this game mode by secret or direct vote would unlock the true final stage that we concepted, allowing the infected to live with the infection until they are killed by an outside force. The Lii'dras objective is to gather enough resources to build a hive-net relay. This would require trivial sprites, but it would be their objective. The further along the relay is the more powerful the connection, and thus control over the infected become. The Elyrans took to calling the infected the Nasu Daeva, or just Nasu. The Nasu could slowly amass biomass from the kois growing upon themselves after reaching the final stage, allowing evolution into one of three archetypes.(Tank/Healer/Damage) The hive-net relay can slow or increase the rate of biomass growth, making it an important target to the crew to perhaps subvert it to impede the infected. This is ultimately a concept, and it would require a bit more fleshing out beyond what I have written. Its also important to note that black kois DOES NOT reanimate the dead.

Alright this is fair enough. However the amount of prisoners still outnumbered the amount of officers, leading to the fact that they couldn't keep an eye on you all simultaneously. Now my ruling on the issue being IC was not intended to be applied here. It was applied to the fact you were left in your cell blind but not intentionally. The officer in question who took of your mask was spoken to about it by myself over ahelps as them taking the mask off of you was in fact an OOC issue. They didn't realise vaurcae need phoron to breathe as I believe they were relatively new. I also recommended that they get you medical help due to this. Similarly to this, the circumstances to you being blind were also an OOC issue. As you know I spoke to the officer who flashed you multiple times and dealt with them appropriately. Again, the IC issue was that you were left blind in the cell, but otherwise unharmed. As stated in my previous reply attempts were made to cure you by the CMO and such. Note that, as I said in my previous reply, the officer came to take you to medical just before the server crashed. As said I did not tell them to do that. That was done under their own accord. I assume by 'killed' you were referring to the officer who took your mask off. As stated I spoke to them and recommended they take you to medical to rectify the damage. That was an OOC issue and was dealt with as such. The circumstances of your blindness and the removal of your masks were OOC issues. Both the officers respectively were spoken to through ahelps and dealt with. The only part of this I declared an IC issue to you was the fact that you were left in the cell blind but otherwise healthy. Due to the reasons I went over in my previous reply. Perhaps I could have been clearer as to which aspect of the string of events was IC and which parts were OOC at the time. And so I do apologise if I was unclear. But yes, The cause of your blindness and removal of the mask was OOC and dealt with accordingly at the time. Leaving you in the cell blind but otherwise fine was not in violation of rules as efforts were being made. Yes, I realize this now, I misunderstood what you were trying to say in the round.

My first round was on Nox. I joined as an assistant and screwed around in main tool supply for like 30 minutes trying to figure out how to use tools. A mime comes and stun gloves me, dragging me into maintenance. I find out how to use the radio and yell that the mime is kidnapping me. Everyone on the crew says thats just what mimes do. The mime proceeds to succ out my brains with their changeling proboscis.

Its good to see you going outside of your comfort zone. I have seen your character around, and your application is solid. You showcase an understanding of the lore, and I look forward to seeing you develop your characters further, application accepted!

From my experience, the station was very much in falling action when most of my issues were reported. This descalation could be backed up by the logs via alert level changes. I was not brought to medical for being blind at first. I was brought to medical because I was dying since they took my mask off. Beyond this it would be difficult to prove my perceptions beyond this. Your conclusion is correct with the evidence you have and from now on I will take more efforts to document irregular security activity when I interact with them to prevent such a misunderstanding from occurring in the first place. I am absolutely certain I would have been left blind, handcuffed in isolation, that I would have been killed by security if I did not a help, so the idea that it's fine for ic is dubious at best, since the impetus for most of their actions were the ahelps themselves in the first place. edited for readability because phones suck

Editors note: Translated to Basic by human Sinta'unathi linguist. Klaxans to Open Nine Gene Clinics Ground broke upon several public work projects across Moghesan cities last week. In a statement today from Overlord Ta'Akaix'Zkaii'xay'yil K'lax, they go onto explain that the new sites would offer free genetic services to all those who suffer birth defects or abnormalities brought upon them by the Moghesan radioactive wastes. When reached for comment, nine different lords mentioned that they have reached a deal for use of the land with the Overlord of Tret, but would not offer specifics upon exactly what- or how much they were offered with one exception. Lord S'tkuth had this to say regarding the deal, Upon further investigation, the Tretian Medical Guild was formed only after negotiations with several lords concluded. When queried directly, Lord S'tkuth mentioned that they insisted on a formation of the guild to facilitate the purchase of the land. They went on further to explain that, as under Sinta law, only unathi can hold the title of guildmaster. This delayed negotiations for several weeks one source mentioned, but the K'lax was eventually able to facilitate the appointment of Guildmaster Wanski, who notarized the final bills of sale prior to the beginning of construction. When speaking with several construction workers of the sites, unathi workers mentioned that great chunks of pre-fabricated machines and parts would arrive in shuttles driven by Vaurca. As for Klax themselves, we spoke to pit boss Ka'Akaix' Wekit'K'lax about the construction and the project itself. At the end of this, another shuttle had arrived, carrying a massive cube-shaped device and lowering it into the sizable 10000 square foot facility. Workers rush to guide the winch lowered device, situating it inside. Appeals for assistance have already reached the facility too, as we spoke to clan mother Tin'uzo about the sizable albino problem with her local area. Clan mother Tin'uzo motioned to several albino unathi children, and bid one over. "I want to be an honorable warrior!" the child replied when questioned what they wished to become once grown.

BYOND Key:Bygonehero Staff BYOND Key:HouseofSynth Game ID:unknown it just crashed Reason for complaint:To reverse their decision, as its not really icly or oocly acceptable Evidence/logs/etc:https://puu.sh/AIhJe/bdc09b0f13.png Additional remarks: They ruled that leaving a prisoner in pain and blind is an ic issue, and does not violate believable standards of roleplay for security officers. This is clearly in error or violation of the rules from my perspective, as it is not fun for the player, nor is it believable to be allowed for prisoners.

I just play security officer or cadet, im all right when i play. She would have found they are starving when they left VR. And for the most part opinion less or mildly worried. And CE training would have been done in VR to cover Fortification building, Minor construction skills (for building fortifications and such also to destroy them), Demolitions etc. And any related skills to what a leader of soldiers would get. Alright, tell me a short paragraph story about each of these things. You need to breathe life into this character, That's what I've been trying to convey. Specifically, write a short paragraph about Tek blowing up a building in VR, and Exactly how Tek found out about the shortage when they left VR. The more descriptive, the better as this is a story about your character, a snapshot of their life. Not a job application.

Any character you play on the Aurora, feedback lets me know how you roleplay, make sure to advertise in a round. You don't need to add to the backstory to answer those questions, simply answer them.

It's unrealistic that Dominia would exist very long with how developed it is and how easy information and trade comes from it. Because Dominia values trade with the rest of the galaxy it will ultimately cease to exist in the way it currently does. Dominias first action, for example, was to outlaw slavery. These mechanisms of globalization will ultimately end Dominia. This traps Dominia in a catch 22, as it needs to trade with Tau Ceti because otherwise, no one could really play characters from Dominia. Since it's established that they value trade, it then makes sense that further concessions would be made to facilitate trade. Dominia isn't going to scrap Nanotrasen IPCs on a 50 billion credit trading mission into their territory, regardless of their beliefs on the matter. Dominia is an ideology that would only exist for a short time before burning itself out. It is fundamentally flawed and thus gimmicky. The mere fact that they can be described in buzzwords with relative detail plaintively showcases why.
