Latest revision as of 16:45, 24 April 2024

This page lists things that are likely to affect GOD crew, because they're special for this event and change how we normally do things.

This doesn't try to cover everything in the Winds of Fortune and similar: sometimes player ask for information about conjunctions, or about how certain titles or opportunities work. They're things we might be able to help with, but they're not covered here because they don't fundamentally change how GOD processes work.

General event information

This is the Winter Equinox 385YE. This event, dusk is 20:30–21:30 for anything that needs a time period (e.g. rituals that can only be performed during dusk), and as 20:45 for anything that needs a specific point in time (e.g. the cut-off for using bows).

If you have plot wiki access, see also Ref Info Winter 385, which covers a similar but different set of topics.

Character packs

Potions and similar

  • Shining like fire: Shimmering Echoes: Any mine that was enchanted with Revelation of the Jewel's Sparkling Heart during 2023 E4 will provide a single deepstone each event throughout 2024 in addition to other benefits. Green iron = warstones, weltsilver = bloodstones, tempest jade = spellstones, orichalcum = heartstones. If someone thinks they should have one, try to find out if they had that ritual cast on them at 2023 E4; if investigating that doesn't explain what's going on, escalate.

Resource production and character income

Ribbons

  • Rules update 2024: Electing senators: Prior to 2024 E1, some Dawnish and Urizeni characters would automatically get ribbons – Dawnish favours and Urizeni sigils – in their character packs. That's no longer the case. Players are welcome to keep using these ribbons if they already have them, but we're not issuing new ones and they're no longer part of the IC voting system.
  • Rules update 2024: Stealing: Some items are getting gold ribbons this event.
    • An item with a gold ribbon can be stolen without the knowledge of its owner (most items can now only be stolen with the owner's knowledge, e.g. by mugging them).
    • If a player thinks they should have a gold ribbon for an item, send them to Adam: he's processing all gold ribbon requests this event.
    • Printing gold ribbons will work the same as printing regular ribbons, except they will be on a separate print queue.
    • Apart from the stealing rules and the slightly different printing process, items with gold ribbons work exactly the same as items with white ribbons; they can be targeted by rituals in the same way, for example.
  • Ripples and shadows: Participation: Varushkan Armies: Some characters were able to request "spontaneous auras" – effectively hallowed item ribbons – by email. If they didn't email in to request these, we can't sort them out now.
