Disguise Feedback and Auto Changes

Post by Darkstorn42 »

I have a two suggestions about minor tweaks to the disguise system to improve QoL and IC player feedback.

1) Allow for disguise race and mimic stats to be saved in a way that auto changes them when you type -disguise Name. I always forget to change it, or it takes so much time to change it when in a rush. This would be a huge QoL improvement so I don't wear a wizard disguise with High Str and High Cha like a silly person.

2) Give more player feedback for disguise race and mimic stats. Perhaps I have just never beaten a roll before, but as far as I know you get no feedback if you break someone's stat mimicing or race disguise. It would be nice if, with a successful check, the examine feature could give a message of something like:
"Your keen eyes have noticed that they are pretending to be something they are not."
Str High (Low)
Dex Very High
Con Very High
Cha Low (Very High)

Racial type: Sun Elf (Drow)

Where the values in parenthesis, where present, are their real values.

This too shall pass.

(I now have a DM Discord (I hope) It's DM GrumpyCat#7185 but please keep in mind I'm very busy IRL so I can't promise how quick I'll get back to you.)
