To pitch an idea or plot for a staff-ran plot. May be long, short, one-off.

Staff can run these for any players on the game...doesn't guarantee you'll

+bug <title>=Where you found the bug, what the bug is,etc.

To report code bugs. Not for typos

this is how you send it to staff.

+mortalsubmit <your name: what>=<info here> ---> Sphere specific stuff for mortals and MORTAL+. There are plenty that mortals

can do to affect the game as a whole. On a supernatural level, a mage's ability to get a desired effect depends on what mortals

believe, or don't. Mortals are standard human, think about Real Mundane Life when you are wondering what to submit here.

+myjobs

+myjobs
+myjob <#>
+myjob/last <#>=<number of comments>
+myjob/add <#>=<comment>
+myjobs/catchup
+myjobs/nospam
+myjob/nospam <#>

This suite of commands allows the submitter to view and modify jobs that they have submitted to the system. When viewing a job that
you own, you can only see the comments that you have added, not comments added by others. +myjobs lists your jobs; you can read an
individual job or the last comment(s). You can also add additional comments to the job. Catching up jobs clears the new job indicator.
Nospam suppresses @mails for all jobs, or a single job.

Staff can give you access to jobs you could not otherwise see. In those instances, you can see all comments added, not just those you
have added.

+myjob/roll <job#>/<stats>=<diff> -- This works and posts your roll to your job. If multiple people ask for them to have access.

Rumors are things that are heard about ICly. NPCs gossip. Maybe they heard something, or saw something. There is no removal function,
so be VERY careful as to what you say. It's permanent!

BEWARE: The rumor list is anonymous when viewed. However Staff do have a way of finding out who posted what. Staff can and will remove a rumor if it is inappropriate, in bad taste, or doesn't seem to be ICly backed. You can start an Ic rumor with no Ic justification, but be prepared for ICA=ICC if someone finds out what you're spreading around.

Staff must set up your forms for you. Please +request with what forms you'd like.

return to top

+forms Use to show a list of forms you may use.
+shift <form> Use this command to shift to <form>. Note that you must also have a description set up in the global multidescer

+spend (for Willpower, Gnosis and Quint)

+spend/willpower #=<reason>

Willpower should replenish automatically 1 point every morning to
represent a good night's rest. For any of the following reasons use:
+will/gain 1=<reason>

• When your mage fulfills some element of his Nature, he gets a point or two of Willpower.
  

The events, however, must be played out – they can’t conveniently occur offstage.

• The Destiny Background allows you to regain spent Willpower.
  
• If a character achieves some special success – rescuing a stranger, saving a sacred grove,
  

stomping a vampire into immortal ashes – the rush of victory can restore a point or two of Willpower.

Staff is trusting putting you on the honor system, don't abuse it

+evict <person>/<IC reason> ---> Consider this an IC action when used. The reason must reflect this.

• This will rehome a player to a barracks on the grid, then teleport them there. The player being rehomed
  

will be @mailed about the event letting them know the person who evicted them, where they were evicted

from, and that since the date of the eviction they have had IC shelter.

• IF the evictee desires to react to this in a way that is anything but peaceful, contact staff before acting.
  
• Only a room's owner can evict a non-owner, and the owner must be in the same room the evictee has set
  

as home.

• A keyholder can attempt to evict someone by contacting staff, though just because you have a key
  

doesn't mean you have enough leverage to say who lives there and doesn't.

comhelp comfilter

Syntax: comfilter/<switch> <channel> = <player>

This will /list, /add, or /remove individual players from gagging/filtering
of a given channel. This will honor commasks for a given channel.

comfilter/list -- lists all players filtered on all channels
comfilter/add <channel>=<player> -- adds player to filter.
comfilter/remove <channel>=<player> -- removes player from filter.

This will return errors if an invalid player or non-existant player
is attempted to tag to a given channel.

Likewise, an invalid channel will also return an error.

+ROLL / +DICE

Rolls a number of dice against a given difficulty.
All of these commands should also alias with +roll

Commands:
+myjob/roll <job#>/<stats>=<diff> -- This rolls, show you the roll, and posts your roll to your job. If multiple people ask for them to have access.

+dice <what>=<difficulty -- Ex: +dice strength+brawl=6 -- this shows to everyone in the room
Output: <Dice> Mike rolls Strength+Brawl vs 6 and obtains 3 net success(es).

+dice/v <what>=<difficulty>
-- same as +dice above but also shows the roll of each die.
Output:

<Dice> Mike rolls Willpower vs 8 and obtains 4 net success(es).

Dice rolled:3 4 7 <8> <9> <10> <10>.

+dice/p <player list>=<what>=<difficulty> -- Example: +dice/p Sally=Intelligence+computer=4
Output:

To: Sally

<Dice> Mike rolls Intelligence+Computer vs 4 and obtains 4 net success(es).

+dice/p/v <player list>=<what>=<difficulty> -- Example: +dice/p/v Jenny=Charisma+etiquette=6
Output:

To: Jenny

<Dice> Sally rolls Charisma+Etiquette vs 6 and obtains 2 net success(es).<br?

Dice rolled: 2 3 4 <6> <8>.

Other Examples:

+dice 6=joe's dex+dodge -- contested roll, rolling against the stats of an opponent (in the same room) as your difficulty

+dice 6=6

+dice per+firearms=joe's dexterity+dodge

+dice dex+melee+-1=5

Last... you can set the &VERIFY attribute on your self. The content of that attribute will be @pemitted to you as the first word of a dice roll,
preventing other players from spoofing. We hope no one is spoofing rolls, but if you encounter it, log and let staff know. All rolls are transmitted
to staff at the time they are made. Rolls can be verified.

The +Dice code is aliased with +action and +roll for your conveniences.
The rest of the syntax remains the same.

Sphere Specific +job Commands

These commands are like +request but for jobs that have to do directly with using the "power" of your race

COMMAND: <sphere appropriate +command> <your name>/<Title>=<message>

DEMON: +demonreq -- for things regarding demon dealing/powers/etc
MAGE: +magereq -- For jobs that require use of arete/spheres/item creation

LANGUAGE

The language code allows for the use of multiple languages on the grid, ICly. It refers to any languages which are set on your character sheet under the language category.

If someone speaks in a language your character does not know it shall emit this fact. If your character has a rudimentary knowledge of the language in question you might get lucky and understand bits and pieces of the conversation.

say ---> This speaks in the default language of English, everyone will be able to understand this.
+say ---> This speaks in your character set base language.
+say/<Language> --> This speaks in any language listed that you have on your sheet so you may switch between languages "on the fly".
+lang <Language> --> This sets your base language and allows you to use the +say code.

Levels in each language allow for better speaking of said language.
So if you have Greek level 3 you'll speak and understand most things as the code will show you most of what they say. Where if you have Greek 5 you have a perfect understanding of it's grammer and structure.

1 abysmal (you probably at least know a few words and recognize the language) 2 native speaker with no education in language beyond grade school. 3 you took the lang in college. 4 you have a degree in the lang. 5 you are a professor of the lang

LINEAGE

This is a generational game. Lineage is a huge theme element in Shifter, and to a lesser extent in Mage. Read more about the Lineage system here: Lineage System. Per the referenced page, failure to register offspring with the lineage system will result in "bad things"(tm) happening.

To submit a lineage job:
+lineage <submitting parent> -- will open a lineage job for you.
+myjob/add <job#>=<Name of Parent 2> - will add a comment to the job with the name of potential parent 2.
+myjob/roll <job#>/1=6 -- will make your initial roll to the job.

LOGS

Logs are used for a variety of things such as: justification of lores, player vs player disputes, harrassement issues, etc.
Logs may also be submitted for additional xp. We highly suggest the use of Pastebin or ControlC. These are
third-party websites that allows you to save logs. In the case of Pastebin and set them "unlisted" so they won't show in websearches. Use at your own risk,
but we've never had issues with it. Pastebin has gotten strict on the profanity filters. If it only allows your paste to be set private because of this, use ControlC instead.

Using Pastebin Or ControlC allows means you only have to submit the url for the log to staff.

Please submit logs for Xp spends, XP noms, if you have any sort of issue of harassments, any issue with another player. We can't help you if you don't submit logs.

+xpsubmit <name:stat wanted>=<justification>
+xpsubmit <name: xp log>=<pastebin link>

-should only be used for things that can't be set in the xp room

-should also be used to submit logs for xp logs

+desc/edit name=old/new Changes the description named 'name' so that 'old' text becomes 'new' text.
+desc name Changes the current description to 'desc'
+desc/emit name=emit Sets the message to emit when you switch to'name'

+desc/name desc=name Sets the character name to use when you switch to 'desc'. Note that if 'name' is 'clear', the name

will be your rootname until you reset it. See the next command for information on your rootname.

+desc/rootname name Sets your default name. This is the name which is used when you don't explicitly state a name.

+desc/attrib name:attr=value

Set an attribute for use with a description. Note that this can be any legal attribute, including

attributes for use in +finger, @oxtport, etc.

+forms For those capable of changing shape, will tell you what forms you have access too.
+shift <form> Will take all the above set info and make you into the chosen form

Please set the same alias for all +forms.

Please do not set up entire alternate +finger identities unless staff approved and noted.
+Finger information should not change between forms unless approved by staff as it makes it
difficult for staffers to find a certain players if you do this. Such as when awarding extra xp, or processing an xp spend.

RADIO

This system will not be active at start of game. If characters want to create a radio station, contact staff

To become a DJ, +request DJ=I'd like to be a DJ. My radio handle is <insert handle here>

Command	Example	Explanation
+radio/*	+radio/on or +radio/off	Turn on or off the radio. You'll need the radio on to phone in for special requests or for guest speaking.
+rad/call *	+rad/call <on/off>	This command sets the DJ for Live Broadcast. You must be set up as a DJ to use this command.
+rspeak1 *=*	+rpseak1 Howard Stern=How goes	Use this command when on the phone with a Live DJ. It only allows speaking, no posing or emits. It's a phone, ok?
+rspeak2 *=*	+rspeak Joseph=You're on the Air!	This nifty command allows a DJ to speak on the phone to a lucky listener who has called in a special request.
+gt *	+gt Hello or +gt :grins	Guest speakers on the radio should use this command to speak or pose Live on the Air! It uses the normal say or pose/emit syntax. If the guest has a radio-handle set, then it will use that name or the anonymous setting instead of their own name.
+rt *	+rt Hello or +rt :smirks	This is the command DJ's use to speak On the Air. It uses the normal syntax for say and pose-emits. If the DJ has a radio-handle, then it will use that instead of their character name.
+rad/anon *	+rad/anon Joseph=Babbles or +rad/anon Joseph=anon	Useful for a DJ who has a guest speaker that wishes to remain incognito. The first form sets a radio-handle for the speaker while the second sets the guest speaker anonymous.
+radquest/on *	+radquest/on Joseph	This puts a guest speaker On the Air.
+radio/dj		Shows a list of DJs.
+radguest/off *	+radquest/off Joseph	Yep, this takes a guest speaker Off the Air---only for DJs. Rock On!

Set an attribute named &VIEW_<item> on any object/player/exit/room.
+view <object> - Displays viewable items on a specific object. +view <object>/<item> - Displays the view attribute set on the object.

Set an attribute on the object thus:

An example> &view-painting here=You see a painting hanging on the walls

To erase a view, simply leave the <text> area blank.

You may also set messages to be displayed to other players when a view is looked at. This is just like setting a view, but the attribute is called &oview.

An example>

&oview-painting here=takes a look at the painting hanging on the wall.

Mary and Fred are in a room and Mary does a "+view here/painting" Fred would see 'Mary takes a look at the painting hanging on the wall.'

UMBRAL COMMANDS

Code is written, will not be available for use at the start of game as you are not on earth

In all cases, the proper stats (if required) are rolled and on a success, the change occurs.
There is no check for a botch in either of these commands.

+pen ---> Moves a character into and out of the Penumbra from either Real world or the umbra.
If in the umbra, used once will return you to the Penumbra. Used again will return you to the real world.

+umbra ---> Should move you from real world into the Umbra, or from penumbra into the Umbra.

• may be modified at a later date*
  
  

+shadowstep ---> Allow Demons with Lore of Realms to transfer directly into the Shroud aka Shadowlands reality.
If you are already in the shadowlands it returns you to the real world. Auto handles die rolls.

+wstep ---> Like +shadowstep but for Wraiths. *Race closed*

+mstep ---> Allows a Mage with Spirit 3 or higher to step into the Penumbra or back to Real again. It will
warn the Mage if he or she is in Umbra and if so, suggest using +umbra to return to the Penumbra first.
It auto-handles gauntlet rolls.

+smstep ---> Allows a Mage with Entropy 3 or high access through the Shroud into the Shadowlands.


Umbral Staff Only Commands: +gauntlet/set # ---> This allows Staff to set the rank of the Gauntlet in the room in which it is typed to #. Note that if this is not set on any room, the default difficulty will be 7 automatically for ALL umbra code.

+gauntlet/check ---> This command allows staff to check the Gauntlet Difficulty of the room in which they type this command.

Time-Date-Weather

+time - show you the IC time, OOC and descript of moon phase.
+moon - shows you a the moon as a graphic.
+weather - gives you current weather desc, future forecast, and seasonal averages by month for temp, rainfall and snowfall.

Moon Note: While the shifter sphere is closed, you will still find reference for Rage rolls in the moon desc.
The phase, vs difficulties have been house ruled since RL moon phases are not equal in length.

For ease of handling timezone, we are using the avg dates of time change in the U.S. This means the +IC time at least should
change on March 11 (CDT, "spring forward") and Nov 4 (CST, "fall back"). Staff will monitor to make sure it works.

return to top

+timestop

+timestop ---> Use this command to issue a timestop. The rules for issuing a timestop are outlined elsewhere in this help file.
The command creates an object, teleports players at the scene into it and then proceeds to 'lockdown' the object, preventing
ingress and egress. A notice is sent to Staff that a timestop was issued. The command also posts a notification to +911.

+resume ---> Use this command to clear a timestop. Only Staff can clear a timestop. The command will alert Staff that the timestop has been completed and by whom.

return to top

Foci

This is how you set and see for Focus Instruments.

To see your current foci: +foci / +instruments-- If you see nothing you are either not a mage, or haven't followed the steps below. Will also display the longer version on your choosen Paradigm (if it is displayed on your sheet as abbreviations), will also display the practice(s) you've choosen to use from what your paradigm(s) allow. For more info and charts Paradigms, Practices, Instruments

You are required to pick 7 tools. One of these is your "primary" tool. It is the one you learned magick with first, and is the one you rely on the most. This is, by default, a personalized Focus that is tied to your Affinity Sphere, granting you a -1 to your arete rolls involving that sphere ONLY. It is also the Focus you will drop last. You may choose to make your Primary Focus "unique" as well, in which case it will grant a -2 to rolls involving your Affinity Sphere ONLY

Aside from your Primary Focus, in M20 foci are no longer tied to spheres.

return to top

Instrument SETUP

+instruments -- will show you all your paradigm information when completed

If you need help while going through this process, please ask Staff.

To start setting up for Foci type: +foci/setup

To see your foci template: +foci or +instruments -- and at any time while going through these steps to see your work

To define/describe your Foci: +foci/desc <primary or a number from 1-6>=<desc> -- do for each of the 7 foci (primary,1,2,3,4,5,6)

Example: +instrument/desc primary=bamboo flute handcarved as I awoke

Example: +instrument/desc primary=Mentor Sasha's tea pot

Example: +instrument/desc 1=artwork

Example: +instrument/desc 3=Fashion

Example: +instrument/desc 6=Household Tools

To set your primary Focus as Unique: +foci/unique --Sets your primary instrument as personalized and Unique, make sure the desc fits

---

A Mage needs to pick at least 1 paradigm, 1 practice, and seven instruments(outlined above).

To set your practice(s): +foci/practice <blah>
Please see Practices for a chart that lists which Paradigms are associated with which practices.

Example: +foci/practice Craftwork

Example: +foci/practice Alchemy, Chaos Magick, Craftwork, Crazy Wisdom, Faith

---

To drop a focus: Please submit a +magereq. (Example: +magereg <your name>:dropping foci=I'd like to drop my 6th focus, artwork.)

+foci/drop <player>=#

+foci/undrop <player>=# (for error correcting)

+foci/sdesc <player>=#

+random

Somedays you need something interesting. Some of these events may be such things as decreasing or removing a flaw,
gaining a merit, etc. Contrary to the way the emit is worded, it isn't a free for all. You can only do any of these type of randoms -ONCE-. Abuse of the system will result in those randoms being removed entirely. Staff isn't going to just take off a flaw or reduce it, or hand you a merit like a cookie. LOGS ARE EXPECTED AND MUST BE SUBMITTED.
BE SURE TO MENTION IT IS TO COMPLETE A RANDOM.

CAVEAT: You are expected to complete the random you draw. Don't just keep using the commands to see what is in the list. Don't ruin it for other players. Also, contact staff if you think of a random event to add in. These can include other spheres that are closed to PCs.

+random Displays a random event. Which random was drawn, date and by whom is logged and maybe be used for Ic
news fodder, plots, etc by staff when we too need something interesting.

Staff Commands: +random/list Lists randoms. +random/log Lists the Random Log. +random/clear Clears the log (WIZ). +random/add * Adds a random (WIZ). +random/del * Deletes a random (WIZ).

OocNotes

COMMAND: +oocnotes ---> Will show you the oocnotes of everyone in the room including your own.

&ooc-notes me=<Relevant Out Of Character information about the character>
Note your such things as your Appearance and other relevant physical things that be noticeable to people. Do no not include racial information.
Some examples of relevant OOC (Out Of Character) information are:
Physical Attributes, Charisma, merits flaws and abilities such as Danger Sense,
Animal Magnetism, Eerie Presence, Short Fuse, and Sense Deception,'+views set',
Please keep this short and concise.

Examples:
&ooc-notes me=Str: 1, Dex: 2, Sta: 4, Cha: 2, Danger Sense, +views set.
&ooc-notes me=Sense Deception: 2.

This is mainly for little notes that some people put at the end of their desc.
Instead, move it here. If people want to look at them, they have the choice.

+view

Set an attribute named &VIEW_<item> on any object/player/exit/room.

+view <object> - Displays viewable items on a specific object.
+view <object>/<item> - Displays the view attribute set on the object.

Set an attribute on the object thus: &view-<name of view> <object>=<text>

An example> &view-painting here=You see a painting hanging on the walls

To erase a view, simply leave the <text> area blank.

You may also set messages to be displayed to other players when a view is
looked at. This is just like setting a view, but the attribute is called &oview.

An example> &oview-painting here=takes a look at the painting hanging on the wall.

Mary and Fred are in a room and Mary does a "+view here/painting" Fred would see : Mary takes a look at the painting hanging on the wall.

roomhelp

Purpose: To allow you to place help text on your room.
Be sure to leave a notification at the end of your room desc
so players know to look. These are always public.

Commands:

+roomhelp Shows a list of available help topics on the room you're in.
+roomhelp topic Shows you help on the specific topic for the room you're in.
Placing help on your room:

&HELP_TOPIC here=The help information.

Example:

Specialties

When you reach 4 in an Attribute, Ability or Sphere you can declare a Specialty.

+request to have a specialty set

+specialties -- will list any specialties you've had approved.

There is currently no way to prove specialties to another player, so please be honest. Lying about your specialties will not be tolerated. If you question the declared specialty please contact staff. The best you can currently do is prove your the stat you are rolling is at least 4 per Prove help.

+Meet

+meet <player> -- Initiates a summon request to target player. You can request multiple summons.
+meet/reject <player> -- Reject the player's request (join or summon)
+meet/accept <player> -- Accept the players request (join or summon)
Invitation times out at 120 seconds

+Risk

There is no risk system currently in use on this game. We find +risk systems are often abused to avoid consequences of IC actions, or that IC reactions are often exaggerated beyond what is reasonable because of the assumed risk level.

You will never be forced to role-play out something you don't want to rp. However, that means staff must decide the outcome. Death is never completely unavoidable. There are plenty of merits and such to mitigate death, or delay it.

Some scenes and consequences may take you away from public grid play. Staff will make sure scenes are provided for you, or at least give you a daily update, until your IC condition/situation releases you back to the grid. Remember, the game runs on 1:1 time, and some situations simply take longer to resolve than others. There is no good way to skip time forward when it doesn't make sense to do so for the whole grid.

return to top

Awareness Code

We have implemented to help make awareness a more viable aspect of the game. This is specifically, for
those with 'Awareness', 'Kenning', Or the gifts 'Sense Magic' or 'Sense The Unnatural'.
The code will automatically make rolls at the difficulty of the effect: The rolls have a threshold of 2.
That is, they need to get more than 2 successes to see anything. Those who are merely benefiting from
'Sense Magic' will not benefit from any more than 4 successes: Any more than that are ignored.

Awareness code is set by staff when a permanent or long-wearing rote is cast on an object, room or player. The difficulty of the autoroll (9 - highest power level used) +1 if personal effect, +1 if static magic (e.g. disciplines, gifts..), -1 if area-effect.

Examples: Casting a Calming Rote (Mind 3) on an office(area of effect) = diff 9-3(mind 3)-1(aoe)= 5

A Correspondence 3 ward cast on yourself = diff 9 - 3(corr 3) + 1(personal effect) = 7

Rolled success equates to receiving the following information:
3 successes: that they detect magic: If it is particularly unusual magic, it might be mentioned as being so here.

4 successes. As for 3, but give the resonance of the effect. This is almost certainly the resonance of the mage who cast
it, or some general form of resonance based on the race if it's not a mage, or even a very mild resonance based on the emotion of the sorcerer/psychic casting it.

5 successes: As for 4, but mention the source of the effect: From PlayerA, for example.

6 successes: As for 5, although the source might get more precise: If It's an item Sol is carrying, for example,
it might become 'from something on Sol's person'. Also, state the target - who it affects.

7+ successes: As for 6, but add in a rough - very rough - idea of what it might be for. Mental defense, sensory, whatever.

This code also handles a certain level of "passive" awareness. If someone is carrying more quint than they should,
their resonance might be sensed. Failed/Botched roll emit are sometimes interesting. Also the stronger your resonance,
the more likely it is to be sensed.

Signing up for an event with max participants (see /limit, below) may put you on
a waitlist. People on a waitlist may still be able to participate, depending on
the event runner. Regardless, if a cancelation or removal puts you on the active
list, you will be notified by @mail.

event/create <name>=<date and time>/<genre>/<summary>


   Example format for <date and time>: Mon Jun 19 19:00:00 2021

   Time zone defaults to &default.timezone on the Events Code Object.

   For 2:00 pm EST, /create with '14:00:00' then /timezone with 'EST'. 
   Don't include time zone with /create or /date; 

   It doesn't work right.

Roster

We have a roster of premade characters that players are welcome to play. Some of these characters require an application, some don't.

+roster -- gives a list of available characters

+roster/info <line number> -- Will give you the basic descriptive information about the character. Fullname, Application required?, race, gender, age (apparent), birthday, eyes, hair, height, weight, vocation, ooc-info, personality, description, family, and relationships, and wiki. Most of this information (and that in +relationships) is available on the character's wiki page.

(TBW) +relationships <line number> -- Will display the characters publicly known relationships.

+secrets -- These are not viewable till the character is assigned to a player. Some roster characters will have secrets. Some secrets are meant to help create plots. Some may be fatal if followed through, but that is the point. Some might just be a little chaotic, or funny, or just a little flavor to the character. There may also be secret relationships.

See Roster Characters for more info.
