NOBODY expects the Celestian Inquisition! Our chief weapon is absolve... absolve and trueheal... trueheal and absolve... Our two weapons are trueheal and absolve... and soulless... Our three weapons are trueheal, absolve, and soulless... and an almost fanatical devotion to the City... Our four ...no... Amongst our weapons... Amongst our weaponry... are such elements as trueheal, absolve... I'll come in again.

Just seeing as no-one's pointed it out, you can't change what's being said just because someone's hearing it from a different point of view.

No one would ever know!

*inno*

Also, please 'fix'( ) the LICK emote so that it removes the first layer of venom from a weapon if licked, and afflicts the licker with it. I'm only half-joking. Perhaps make them bleed slightly. It's stupid to see someone like a claymore envenomed with Mantakaya, dendroxin, aleutian, mactans, morphite, hadrudin, and senso and get off without catching one of 'em.

But I like licking my athame. <-- strawberry athame

You know you love those tasty, tasty venoms Vix!

nervous

$name blinks and gulps nervously.

You blink and gulp nervously.

$name blinks and gulps nervously a $he/she stares at you.

You blink and gulp nervously as you gaze upon $name.

If I could envenom them sure...


And why quote me, Ialie?

So, while I was drunk at the Moonhart tree with Asmodea's pooka...
I realized we are missing the one, the only...

LEGHUMP.

I have also made some personal faeling emotes.


blush1 em flutters her wings furiously as her face flushes in embarrassment.
fan1 em fans her wings slowly.
pant1 em bends over slightly, and places her hands on her knees as she
pants loudly. Her wings flutter wildly behind her although she is obviously
very exhausted.

nervous1 em blinks and looks around, fluttering her wings nervously.
fear1 em flutters her wings quickly, as she widens her eyes in fear.

angry1 em narrows her eyes angrily as her wings flutter out of control.

flutter1 em flutters her wings excitedly.

innocent1 em sucks on her buttom lip as she looks up innocently.

anxious1 em raises her brows as she bites down hard on her lower lip and flutters her wings anxiously.

whimper1 em tucks in her lip as she looks upwards and whimpers softly.

beat1 em beats her wings gently across her back.

hover1 em flutters her wings quickly and brings herself hovering quite a bit above the ground

alight1 em alights gently on the ground.

O M G.

No.

I didn't even realize I quoted...

What I believe would allow for a massively enriched sense of environment through emotion would be a system for custom targetted emotes, as opposed to a few new emotions. If you seek to stand out, it would be akin to a fireworks display, vs a firecracker.

I could explain it, but I snipped a helpfile from a place that I believe has the best emotion range I've seen anywhere.

== (a short description is akin to names here)


Emote now supports a small language which allows you to refer more effectively to other characters. Precede any character's keyword with a tilde (~) to insert that character's sdesc in your emote.

Precede a character's keyword with a % to insert the possessive form of that character's short description into your emote.

Likewise, precede a keyword with a !, ^, or # to substitute the gendered objective (him/her), possessive (his/hers) pronouns, and the nomitive pronoun (he/she) respectively. In tabular form:


Symbol Reference Target Sees
------ --------- -----------
~ (sdesc) you
% (sdesc)'s your
! him/her you
^ his/her your
# he/she you

Example 1:
> emote clutches his head in pain.


What is seen by everyone:
The lean man clutches his head in pain.


Example 2:
> emote leads ~kank carefully around ~statue.


What is seen by everyone:
The lean man leads a yellow kank carefully around the tall stone statue.


Example 3:
> emote reaches out and shakes %blonde hand.


What is seen by the blonde man:
The lean man reaches out and shakes your hand.


What is seen by everyone else:
The lean man reaches out and shakes the blonde man's hand.


Example 4:
> emote laughs evilly at ~red while pulling ^red hair.


What is seen by the red-haired woman:
The lean man laughs evilly at you while pulling your hair.


What is seen by everyone else:
The lean man laughs evilly at the red-haired woman while pulling her hair.


Example 5:
> emote looks down at ~red, and smiles at !red.


What is seen by the red-haired woman:
The lean man looks down at you, and smiles at you.


What is seen by everyone else:
The lean man looks down at the red-haired woman, and smiles at her.


Note:


You can also use @ or "me" to place your short description arbitrarily
within the emote. If you leave out the @, your character's sdesc will
appear at the beginning of the emote, as normal.

Example 6:
> emote His face breaking into a wide grin, @ turns to face ~blonde.


What is seen by everyone:
His face breaking into a wide grin, the lean man turns to face the blonde man.

credit due to Armageddon mud.

That's pretty awesome, we should definitely have that.

We should also not have the titles show when we use EMOTE.

That one should cost 400 rolepoints. C'mon, sterling opportunity here...

I am never making a leghump emote. Ever.

Lisaera just earned a pwn point.

Well the range of emotes are so limited when you are drunk. And I don't call it bad RP by any means. I am a big masculine single bull who had alot to drink for the first time in a few years. All of a sudden a pooka starts messing with my head, so I drift over to it and start poking it. I then get to breaking down, bitching about elections, love and money, and soon enough go from snuggling the comfy little robed pooka, to... well... you know.

The only reason I said an actual emote was that when I manually emoted leghumping, it came out as: "Folken moveesh up aegiaant*hic* e pporka's leegh aanh begenn ta rhu et lewhdulyy"

Ignore me.
