Hello! Would someone be willing to explain everything about rolling and actions and other things? Like what you do when you cast spells and play Quidditch? As an example:

"Accuracy [d20: 21] = 18 + [5-2]"

To give a short answer, we have multiple systems in live, beta and alpha.

Live we have quidditch and adventuring.
Beta, but soon live we have dueling.
Alpha we have some melee combat and soon another system for release.

How rolls work will likely change for these.

However what we do is a contested roll or a roll versus a DC. What does that mean? Well you have stats such as accuracy and evasion. If I were to say attempt to punch you it would be my accuracy versus your evasion. As you might have noticed that would not work, whoever has the highest stat just 'wins.' So we incorporate the use of a d20 (a 20-sided dice) which adds the random, chance element to adventures and games. So if I had 5 accuracy and you had 7 evasion and I attempted to strike you, the moderator would roll 2 d20s and show the results. He might have rolled a 7 for me and a 2 for you. In this case it might look something like this:

Solomon attacks 5 + 7
You avoid: 7 + 2

Solomon has successfully struck you. The damage calculation for how much damage I did depends on various, fairly simple equations. Often physical endeavors involve strength where magical involve arcane power.

Hopefully this clears up some. The systems developed here are common among pen and paper games such as D&D.

Hello!
I’m having a lot of trouble updating my profile picture. I’ve been trying to for the last hour and a half, but no matter how I resize it or what image I use it keeps going to an error screen, or the website closes on its own.
I’ve tried using my phone, iPad, and computer. I’ve tried taking a photo, uploading from google dox, etc. and now it deleted my old profile pic as well. Please help.
Thank you!

Much Love,
Duna

When high enough year it will open up to you. You will likely get in trouble in character if caught. You might also die.
