In this section, you will find all the information you need to understand the OOC portion of this guild. There's a lot of information here about OOC Rules and Culture, OOC information on scheduling, addons, FAQa and the D20 System. This is essential information to getting the most out of your RP with this guild. The more you are able to pull from this information on how we work the more enriched experience and story you will be able to gain for your characters.
Player Characters are the lifeblood of this guild. Being player-focused each and every character that is brought into the guild plays a huge fundamental role in shaping the story that they are a part of. Player Characters change the landscape of story arcs and campaigns through their choices and because of this high focus on individual players our stories are deep, complex, and quite long. Below you'll find a list of all the player characters (mains and alts) that are associated with the tribe ICly. Players fill out their character sheets and post them up for people to see and connect with. It gives the community the chance to reach out OOCly to get RP with other members based on what they find in these profiles and it gives the DMs and Storytellers the opportunity to custom make amazing character plot points within the campaigns. Each Character Page has a record of any significant submitted stories that they wished to share about their characters as well as their D20 System Sheets.
NPCs are part of the day-to-day life of the Skyrunners. They have their own personalities, histories, motivations, strengths, and weaknesses. Though they are used as vehicles for character, and tribe story by many means they are still characters. They have a significant place among the tribe that fills in the world of an otherwise small tribe. By including NPCs we are able to fill out valuable roles in ways such as crafting, mentors, character foils, and story tools, that often times small guilds cannot accommodate because of their lower player numbers.
TRP3 and TRP3 Extended
You are free to use any other RP profile addon you prefer such as MyRP though most of the guild uses the above. We don't require members to go all out on their TRP Profiles but we all enjoy reading them and looking through them to get a better feel for your character. It is also a great tool to use for notes, DiceMaster information that cannot fit anywhere else and other fun tools like an NPC Speech box.
Dicemaster
Dicemaster is the in-game addon we use for our D20 roll events, from player abilities and traits to NPC generation for immersion. Usually, our events will use Unit Frames and the Progress Bar but the DM will inform you which parts of the addon will be necessary. We also use it to keep track of when people are typing in RP which is s very useful feature to allow everyone a chance to participate.
Because we cannot RP our characters every day like we might wish we utilize much of Discord to help the themes and plot of the guild feel more complex and real. Through the use of daily travel posts to indicate what has happened each day as well as places for people to post responses, hold discord RP sessions, send IC correspondence, and more we hope to provide meaningful and engaging character building and story progression. In addition, Discord lets us build a strong community!
Tongues- Speak and understand different languages within WoW. This is a great tool to use for characters that are not native tuarahe speakers as the tribe primarily uses that language. It can spur on great RP stories as well.
Emote Splitter- Allows for multi-box text posting so that you do not have to break up your typing based on the in-game current restriction of characters.
Listener- Easily track conversations within a large group or individually by your target. This also records conversations so long as you remain in a party so if you DC in the middle of something, not all is lost. The best feature of this addon is that if you are the target of a wow-created emote such as /hail or /poke, of if your TRP or character name is used in any way you will get an auditory chime indicating that the post needs your attention. Great for people that Tab out of the game between posts or in large groups.
Chatter- Chatter is a text modification addon that for those of us who are blind or want a more cohesive UI setup allows for full customization of the chat boxes even beyond what's provided in-game. Additionally, it allows you to copy text within a window if necessary.
Faster Loot- A small but very helpful addon that removes the loot window from coming up when you loot a body. This shaves a ton of time off each mob you kill.
Method Dungeon Tools- An amazing addon for PvE content that has a ton of resources for pathing, affixes, mobs, mechanics, and builds for your team. It's an excellent tool to run with as leaders can share tactics with their group at the click of a button so long as the receiving member has the addon.
OPie- A small addon that adds mouseover wheels to your bars to free up space on your screen. Highly customizable and mouseover dependant for faster response times and a clean UI
