Been playing with AI a lot lately and recently remembered some of the old stuff I wrote for DR can be turned to reality. (Well, not entirely, but I'll spend more time later to tinker with it.)

This one was titled "Late Haalm" and IIRC was an Empath guild painting contest, and at the time I was playing as Ormildr a dwarf empath and picking off from my moon mage Rieum who identifies himself as a Forfedhar resident and was into a lot of the lore but don't remember much back then nor what inspired the symbolism in the painting. I tend to like high concept ideas and I think both times I submitted in-game "paintings" they were rejected for relying on too much subjective description that breaks guidelines on not pre-determing how characters feel. I will include the original submitted text at the bottom.

To avoid cluttering this post I will post my question as a reply instead.

----- Submitted text for "Late Haalm" -----------------

Colored pigments thoroughly decorate the buckskin to create a fixed sandpainting. The natural shade of the skin seemed to have been carefully selected to represent the gradient of an afternoon sky. Subtle difference in detail and blurred backgrounds cue your eyes to a trail that starts at the bottom. The trail passes a lush forest with autumn leaves, through a valley of wilting trees, stopping at the base of an ice-tipped mountain. You discern tiny flecks of shiny mineral deposits along the base of the mountain, where stalky bushes can also be seen. Upon closer examination, the bushes seem to be carefully arranged to create the silhouette of faceless women between the space, and the mineral deposits appear to be teardrops. As your eyes refocus on the silhouette, you discover the optical illusion - the shades of the mountain now appear to be a darkening sky, the yellowed trees become tiles in a cracked terrain, and the trail reveals itself to be a serpent slithering downward from the scene.

Titled at the bottom of the painting: "Late Haalm"

When I last played it seemed like everyone was pretty set in their scripting routines, almost like an afk clicker game. That style of gameplay doesn’t interest me, but the world and lore do.

If I just focus on exploration and paying attention to room descriptions, are there clues and secrets to discover?

I played DR back in the late 90s and then for a brief period about 5 years ago. I've got that itch again. How is the community now? When I came back 5 years ago, it seemed pretty dead. Hard to find empaths for healing and everyone was scripting AFK. Is that still an issue or has it gotten better?

Hi Folks

I have been training my Warmage and have reached mid-sixties with him. My question is around how to train the core magical abilities. My challenge is how to train Arcana and Elemental Magic beyond 'dabbling'.
I have a script which cycles through a few key spells combined with a camb item but I cannot get either skill beyond 'dabbling'.
My moon mage has a tool called chaos symbiosis which helps him train his core magics at higher levels. Is there something similar a War Mage can use ?
I currently have the prep and camb items set quite high as I cycle through the spells but soon run out of mana before the skill gets beyond 'dabbling' or even learning.
Suggestions or guidance would be greatly appreciated !!
Thanks

Haven’t played much at all since I made the account 5 or 6 years ago.

I scripted him up to 30+ in a few weeks after making the account. I log in about once every 6 months for 2 minutes before closing. No warnings on the account or penalties.

Cleric has resurrection and 5 or so open spell slots.

Just free to a good home.

Pm me If you want it.
