Reflex save added to IGMS, so mages can receive buffs that make them healthier and more fun to play.

Make longswords and scimitars finesse-able, not enough people are playing DEX builds.

Even better, all saves are capped at 30 so that mages can actually use spells other than IGMS, dispels and summons.

People overreacting to the latest finesse changes when it's mostly a cosmetic change.

Allow for more than 3 classes per character. How about a dwarven defender, champion of torm, purple dragon knight paladin/fighter?

Add a confusion style effect for barb rages: the barbarian keeps attacking people without controlling the character and not being able to stop.

Each time a character uses the phrase *nods* they must pay a cliché fine of 500 gold.

To finally represent that Arelith is a roleplay oriented environment, storytelling capability directly impacts mechanical effectivity.

This is to incentivise a more collaborative server culture. It also serves to fabricate and further narratives, as people focusing on creating those will be more successful in any given situation.

To that effect

RPB 30 grants a +5 to every possible roll
RPB 40 grants a +10 to every possible roll

(Attack, damage, DC, saves, spot, etc.)
It's time to kill the king
It's written in the scripture

every update now has to go through a council meeting vote consisting of three elected representatives from the playerbase, irongon, and three representatives from the DM team selected by vote from the DMs.

Clerics can now drink holy water to replenish their spells.

Every time they drink a holy water bottle, they roll 1d20 against a DC equal to 30 - level/4 - constitution modifier. Every time they fail the roll, they need to pee. The character can only pee while naked. They also roll a pee check, which is 1d20 + dex against a DC of 20 + wind strength (1 to 4, 1 for a breeze, 4 a hurricane). When they fail the pee check, they retain a stink aura and lose 5 points of charisma, until washed. Washing can be performed through the script menu by typing -wash. For washing you need a water bottle or be 20 feet within a well, a river or a lake (you cannot wash in lava lakes unless you are a RDD or a warlock).

If you are caught washing or peeing in a public area, you retain -1 to your reputation value. Every character starts with 3 reputation points. Upon reaching reputation value 0, the character is marked as an outcast and has to live in the Underdark.

Your character does not have to pee if they are a vampire, although drinking a holy water bottle causes instant death in such a case.

We are also planning to introduce similar toilet mechanics for Comedic Creampie. Stay tuned.

Potions will now cause severe addiction when drank too much, mixed together or enjoyed with alcohol.

Bigby's high five

Level 0 Bard Spell
Somatic Components (The caster air high fives the target)
Range: line of sight
Target: Willing creature you can see, or unwilling creature you can see (Special)

Everybody loves a high five. They just can't be resisited. As a bard, you know all about spreading joy and cheer, and so you use your Bigby's high five to extend the range of your bardsong to a creature outside the normal range, by giving them a magically encouraging high five. Alternatively, it can be utilized on your foes to apply curse song outside the area of effect, but with the added bonus of making them waste one round of combat to high five your spectral hand. After all, they can't just leave you hanging.

To address the problem we have with inflation in the Arelith Economy and everyone being incredibly wealthy with 6 million gold to their name, all gold pieces should be called silver pieces so everyone's stash of gold is now silver. Thus solving the inflation crisis.

Make the use of the word "Lithe" in player descriptions to cause that character to be penalized


.......unless they're phenotype 2. Only let phenotype 2 use the word lithe in their description

Make people take bludgeoning damage constantly when moving at full speed in the interior areas of Brogenstein. Double this bludgeoning damage if they are also under the effects of Haste.
