The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
Be like Robcham but without the humor or art. Bloodstone Game/Wiki
So I figure Rob is crying his eyes out to see his beautiful thread full of arts get overrun with nerds spooging about the characters they want to make for a Glossolalia d20 campaign, and how the rules should be and lore and everything else terrible and awful in us that reminds us we are not so different from the fat people in terrible cosplay at Comic Con after all. That's why I'm making this thread -- for discussion of the Glossolalia PnP d20 RPG, which DE?AD is masterminding from a rules-perspective, and for collaboration on said RPG, in the form of lore, characters, plot, artwork, or whatever.
Anyone can edit it, but try not to fuck it up and abide by whatever rules are posted. Also I'm gonna post some large rules on this here thread and boss people around 'cause I groove on that, and without some vague semblance of structure this thing will assuredly suck ass.
Rules for adding shit to the wiki:
If you really want to add something, post in the thread first and if it doesn't get immediately torn to pieces, post it as a new page in the wiki. If it is deemed to mesh with the direction the main and better contributors are taking Glossolalia in, they will add a link to your page on the appropriate Main Page (Items, Creatures, Characters, Maps, Lore)
TAG YOUR SHIT. When you create a page, tag it properly. Tags must be uniform for ease of searching. Tags are separated by a commas. Tags include but are not limited to:
- Requires Rule Nerd. Use this tag if your article needs some kind of accompanying stats and you aren't DE?AD or someone else responsible for making rules and balancing the game. This goes on pages for monsters, races, NPCs, items, and similar shit. This gets removed when stats are cleared by someone smart.
- Class, Person, Race. If your article is somehow related to a Class, a Character, or a Race, tag the article with the name of that Class, Character, or Race.
- NPC. Self Explanatory.
- Item. Self Explanatory.
- Monster. Self Explanatory.
- Forum Celebrity. NPCs who are based on forumers.
- Weapon Self Explanatory
- Learning, Ability, other game mechanic type shit. Articles about Learnings, Abilities, or other game mechanic type deals should include a tag of what they are. An article about PedoLeer the ability should include the tags Pedomancer and Ability, for example.
- I'll think of more later
Can the thing I just posted in the other thread go in the lore?
That would be pretty cool.
Probably not. You might want to create a whole new page for Famous Figures or something similar, which would give the story of all the people with names we're supposed to remember. Might want to include the stats of each of said characters as well, but that might be more for a rules nerd to decide (so that these characters can be included as NPCs in any given run of the campaign)
edit: actually I'm gonna update the OP with better guidelines for adding stuff.

good effort though
I honestly wasn't sure how else to go over the end part without going over details that I felt were better left summed up in a news report sort of way.
Also, I can go over it for some revising, but I'm pretty terrible at seeing how other people interpret my stuff, so any specific details or suggestions you could throw my way would be very much appreciated. Otherwise I really won't have too good an idea what really needs the most improvement.
Also I hella edited the wiki for like, forty-five minutes straight just now and made lots of pages and feel really, really ashamed.
However, it should be pretty apparent now how to go about adding things to the wiki. Make sure to TAG YOUR SHIT PROPERLY so people can find it easily.

ps
in the creatures and races page could you change one thing
it's a bear not a beaver kin
maybe you can make it beast kin instead
then just put the various types of beast kin

I actually have both Bee and Bear kin just link right to the Beast Kin page, which I figure will have sub-pages in turn to describe the stats differences between beast kin sub-races.
Then write your own damn lore, post in this thread, and then if it isn't total shit make a wiki page out of it and I might link you on the Famous Figures page or I might have someone better write one for you instead.

post it on the wiki. You don't really have to go to the thread for approval since it's your brainchild in the first place.
probably on the Core Rules page?
I don't understand DnD at all really so I'm not ever touching any rules-related threads which means y'all gotta do your own legwork on that shit

I'm totally zonked at the moment, but I will at some point.
Oh, and this is in no way, shape or form DnD, except, I guess, by way of parody. I'm basically pulling random crap from GURPS, Exalted, and d20, and reforming them into some monstrous hybrid offspring.

I know I'm going to sink dozens of hours into writing for and maintaing that wiki only to never ever play it because I can barely handle vanilla DnD

Point being: I just made this shit up as I went. It's about forty times less complex than actual DnD, and is entirely just meant to be a parodical farse. That's really why it uses a 3d20 base - because d20's are emblematic of DnD, and there is no reason anyone should be rolling three of them ever.

let's invade the game nerd thread with art

But yeah I'll mark it Bearkin instead
pictures is good. I gotta sleep soon though. I haven't gone to bed yet and it's nearly 6AM
