D&D General A glimpse at WoTC's current view of Rule 0

[DEFCON 1]

It means the world you live in exists before you do, so you are shaped by its traits and to some degree by its assumptions.

For me-- the times when I get to play-- half the fun of character creation is finding something cool within the traits and assumptions of the setting within which to base my character around. If a setting only has certain classes, species, backgrounds etc... for me the juice comes from creating within those barriers rather than wanting/expecting complete freedom. Because oftentimes that complete freedom produces less interesting results. Restrictions often mean you can't just take the top surface level ideas but have to start digging further down, producing more creative and interesting things and combinations.

There used to be a list that told you on the site.

That said, I looked quickly at all y'alls accounts, and it isn't number of posts or reactions (because I checked between the different legends and heroes etc.), so it has to be trophy points.

I remember that list! I was #1 in laugh reactions until... someone passed me.

I'm sure that person sucked.

Probably a bard.

i mean i looked and found the list of what the trophies are and you can check which ones you have on your account, it just doesn't mention anything about their thresholds in relation to providing titles, even if it probably is that.

I mean, they were no Snarf, but they were pretty funny. My usurpation was understandable.

Right. But there used to be a list that told you what the titles were for different levels.

You can still see the "leaders" in different areas here, if you're curious-

But it doesn't have the titles anymore.

Yea, the previous software used to have "Most likes", "Most laughs", etc. But it got reset like 6-7 years ago. Before your time.

A lot o' people don't realize what's really going on. They view life as a bunch o' unconnected incidents 'n things. They don't realize that there's this, like, lattice o' coincidence that lays on top o' everything. Give you an example; show you what I mean: suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconsciousness.

The Akashic! There was a class in Arcana Unearthed (Evolved) that tapped into the Akashic.
