    Your First Undead

    Definitely Vampire first, but everything else is coming soon after.

    Give Away and Merchandise Ideas

    I'm not gonna lie, I don't care how silly it is, I just want some plushies of the classes. : p

    Local legends you'd love to see in game

    I'd like to see some non-western folkloric undead in general, even if just in very small roles. It'd be fun to see a Jiangshi or Penanggalan as an ambassador from a distant land's equivalent of Deadhaus or something. : >

    Today it was reaffirmed that banshees are going to be gender locked...

    The traditional Banshee is an *extremely* gendered entity, the literal translation of its Irish name (bean si or ben sidhe) meaning something pretty close to "fairy woman". Like, if we're going purely by the tradition, they're not a type of undead at all, just a type of female fairy themed after...

    Oh also I'd be all about there being lots of skin and hair options for POC characters. : >

    Today it was reaffirmed that banshees are going to be gender locked...

    I would like to be clear, again, in saying that "They're undead and therefore do not have gender" does not work. It's ok if you see your character that way, but from all the art I've seen all of these characters are in fact conforming to some type or other of gender expression. Which isn't a bad...

    Today it was reaffirmed that banshees are going to be gender locked...

    I think it's important to recognize that "gender" isn't just reproduction, it's a lot of self-identification and more abstract things that can be very important to people. Like I see people say "The dead don't reproduce so they're agender" a lot but that's kinda not how it works. I'm trans and...

    Mothman? Mothhaus?

    Today it was reaffirmed that banshees are going to be gender locked...

    I don't think this is the worst possible thing, given that the other classes aren't gender-locked so everyone has *something* they can play and be comfortable with, but I do think it's maybe worth considering that some people (Largely transmen/transmascs) are going to feel uncomfortable playing...

    Dangers of your True Name Discussion

    Definitely something that would require some pretty heavy balance, yeah. At least one important facet would be, in my mind having either A: A way to intentionally change your true name, via a quest or other non-trivial mechanic or B: Truenames changing automatically if overused.

    Dangers of your True Name Discussion

    I think a cool mechanic would be the ability to impose a "geas" on a player, like a quest that they have to do or suffer some penalty, that provides you with some bonus or advancement to your character's goals. Probably have the quest provide pretty decent rewards for the person undertaking it...

    Player-Created Lore

    I am totally 100% coming from a place of "Vampiric love is similar to human love in some ways, but twisted and alien due to their monstrous perspective" In considering these ideas and the creating the short fiction that I'll likely be posting soon on this topic. : >

    The Restaurant (concept)

    Frankly, I do not have the energy to argue this. Just, please consider how committed you are to this being a welcoming community, and how committed you are to the idea of a community-driven game/setting, and whether over-extrapolating a single quote repeatedly to shut down people trying to...

    What are currently playing?

    I've mostly been playing Slay the Spire. Getting real close to Ascension 20 with most classes, and having a great time helping my girlfriend through lower-Ascension runs. : >

    The Restaurant (concept)

    I see the "these are monsters" quote get thrown around a lot to shut down various things. I think a lot of y'all have a pretty specific view of what "being a monster" is, and should be more open to different interpretations of that. There's little that a real-world monster loves more than a...

    The Restaurant (concept)

    I don't hate the basic idea of this, like, "Meeting place where undead who eat people can eat people together". It'd be interesting as a sort of new thing that's arising from Deadhaus' bringing more undead together in a society. As they build social structures together, what does that look like...

    Undead age as a game mechanic

    I agree that the problems you mention could become an issue, but disagree with your solution. I think there are better ones, that preserve more of the idea that ancient undead are generally more powerful and older players get to be rewarded for playing so long. One possibility could be making...

    Weapon / Armor skins

    As someone who wants to play a lady vampire, I'd be all about wearing this.

    How modular are skins?

    Hey, if a Revenant wants to wear bright pink faerie wings, who's gonna stop them? : p

    Player-Created Lore

    Y'all should note that I never did say "sexy". I mean, yes, I *do* think playing sexy vampires should be a thing, and would probably play at least one of my characters as one, but a character can be gay without being conventionally attractive. I ain't trying to put porn in the game, I'm trying...
