Site Patches

Site Officials Opens. See Opening Ceremony

Equipment rules have been amended to cap how many items can add SP to players. 

We have also added the following information on years and seasons to the History of Vyldermire.

Vyldermire's Seasons and Year
Vyldermire years, unlike other worlds, are significally longer than others. From Otherworlder intelligence they did not adopt the calender system of months. However instead a year is broken into the four season; spring, summer, autumn and winter. Each season is equal to six months, and reflect that of an entire year in the Vyldermire Realm.

Vyldermire has existed for many milleniums, and another aspect they adopted from Otherworld influence was the decision to record their events by giving their years a numerical catalog. Since the start of this Vyldermire's date is broken down into two parts, it's Millennia since the count began and it's current  year. During the first 1000 years since the count, Vyldermire was in what was known as First Millennia.

As present 1162 years have passed since the count began, as such the date is described as follows:

Second Millennia, Year 162

As such the 'Birthday' section has been removed from the Character App template. And a new widget has been added to the side bar~

A few changes that have occured since the last patch;

The Monster Encyclopedia has been amended to include a Monster Rarity section.

Monster Rarity
In terms of a monsters rarity, depending on their spawn rate, they will only appear in a thread so many times. The spawn rates are known as Common, Uncommon and Rare. The number of which you can spawn in a single thread/quest is as follows:

Common =  Unlimited
Uncommon = 2 Per Thread (+1 for Adept Quests and above)
Rare = 1 Per Thread (+1 Legendary Quests)

In addition to this five new monsters have been added to the encyclopedia : Light Unicorns, Nightmares, Forest Wyverns, Ocean Wyverns and Mystical Wyverns.

The Character Creation Template has been amended to include a section on Character Guidelines, which will hopefully make character creation easier and more consistent with lore.

We have officially added The Chronicler to the Lore section of the site, this is Vyldermire's Official New Outlet, and OOCly a tracker of site lore as everyone's story progresses. Submissions to the Chronicler can be made here.

Here is a list of all the tweaks since our last patch:

✧ Character Log ✧
We have now created a Character Log, where you can register your character, your alts and the best means of contacting you i.e. for plot etc.

✧ Update to Discord Rules ✧
The following rule has been added to our Discord Rules;

No Unnecessary Pinging
Do not ping people unless it is absolutely necessary. In addition to this please refrain from using the @ everyone tag, this is reserved for important announcements  / messages from staff.

✧ Vampires & Werewolves ✧
Vampires and Werewolf lore has been updated to explain lore behind turning other species.

✧ Plot Board ✧
Thanks to a players suggestion, we have created a Plot Board where you can post any spare trackers, histories, character requests or other plot related info about your character. This can be anything you like as long as it's plot related. As such the 'Plot Requests' board moved to a sub-board in this board.

✧ Spell Styles ✧
Clarifications have been made to MH Defense and MH Healing spells. See 'Multi-Hit' section in Magic Rules for more info.

✧ Early Fourth Character Slot Purchase ✧
The following change has been made, instead of 'Fourth or Higher Character Slot' purchase, we know how the following item;

Early Fourth Character Slot
Once you have three characters, you would normally have to wait three months after your first character before you can make a fourth. However, for those who do not wish to wait, after one month should you can unlock this slot with this purchase. This only applies to the fourth character and not any other slots thereafter.
Price: 50,000 VG

As such those who do not want to wait the full three months for their fourth character can use this to unlock it after their first month of membership.

Here is a list of all the tweaks since our last patch:

✧ Minor Changes ✧
- There is now a cap on Equipment submissions that can be posted up for grading at a time by a player. This is now capped at 3 per grading.

- Archive Board added to the forum to move threads to to keep the forum clean i.e. inactive character apps, re-rolled characters apps, old events etc.

- At player recommendation, The site's hover link has been altered from white to dark purple for better visibility.

✧ VyCon ✧
After player encouragement, the forum now has an In Character Social Media Platforum called VyCon. This platform is only open to players who reside in Rivengate or Avalon Islands, or would have a valid reason for access to the Interweb.

See more information here.

Here is a list of all the tweaks since our last patch:

✧ The maximum character limit on accounts has been increased from 10 to 12.
✧ Biyaya, Pot-Bellied Chomper and Salamanders have been added to Monster Encyclopedia
✧ Quest Guide updated to clarify turn-in requirements for quests regarding WC and multiple turn-ins.

Here is a list of all the tweaks since our last patch, most of these you all might recognise from being around the site and discord. However, these are covered for those who might have missed any announcements, as well as our newest registration system (see notes on the Magic Amendment thread.

✧ Minor Changes ✧
- The sites Race Spectrum was updated to match current site applications.
- A Character App Channel added to discord where players can link their character's application to make finding players to rp with easier.
- Thanks to on site and in chat suggestions, six new monsters have been added to our bestiary. Check our Monster Encyclopedia to read about the following beasties; Twin-tendrilled Panthera, Animated Armour, Shrike, Quinquesaur, Poca Boba & the Meglodyle!
- A few months ago, Jotforms broke a bunch of our Magic App forms, these have now been fixed. If however, you come across any issues, please contact an admin and we will take a look.
- The Character Creation Rule's wording has been tweaked for more site consistency.

✧ New Site Rule ✧
- After reviewing player interactions, we have added the following site rule. This is very important to maintaining the site's lore and consistency. The entirety of the site's rules can be read here.

7. No Tampering with Site Lore
The site's lore is expansive and ever-growing, it is something that the admins and developers wish to continue to grow and build over time. Whilst we grant players some leeway to take this lore and use it in their story, it is not permitted to change the lore as you see fit. Nor is it acceptable to create lore in areas that have not been developed without admin permission. If it is not written official in the site's glossary, then you must check with an admin. Making assumptions and incorporating them into your rp will be flagged up by staff and you will be told to change/remove anything that has not been approved. Additionally, players are not permitted to make up lore and tell other players that their canon applies to the site, this misinformation can spread and lead to conflicting rp. This is not to say that you cannot be creative, just that when you are uncertain about certain details of lore or it is not noted anywhere, then you just need to check in with admins first. This allows for healthy communication and more consistency across the site.

✧ New Character Log ✧
Due to some coding issues with the previous character log, the old log has now been archived. In its place we have it's much more aesthetic and uniform character log where members can post their characters and alts. All inactive members have not been added to this new log. Anyone who was not transferred will have to resubmit their characters once they become active once again.

Check it out :: Official Character Log.

✧ HOLY NEWDALE RESULTS ✧
The Holy Newdale Event results have been posted up in this seasons issue of The Chronicler! Read all about it here and check out our new Newdale Sub-board

Thank you to everyone who participated, this was such an awesome event and a great way for site lore to be developed. We hope to keep bringing you more opportunities to influence Vyldermire's story and have a ton of fun in the process!

✧ THE MOONDANCE FESTIVAL !! ✧

✧ MAGIC AMENDMENT THREAD ✧
Due to some confusion as to how to handle the editing and amendments of character apps, the admin team are happy to introduce the implementation of our Magic Amendment Thread.

This thread should be used for any tweaks or edits that players need to make to their stat sheets, this can be anything from editing descriptions, changing pictures or removing spells. Please do not use this to have spells or equipment graded, that should be done via the normal submission threads.
