Viewing your own description
Hey,
how do I view the description I entered for my own character?
The one others see when they examine me?
Uh, I've forgotten what I look like

ahh yes, well that makes sense, I thinkArkron wrote:Probably used when your ego gets so inflated you want to see how others view you.

Also, is it possible to change your player model? For some reason, during character creation (yes, I really should of said something sooner, but I didn't want to be a pain) when the golem changed me into the sub-class, it automatically changed my skin colour, hair colour and body model, thus making me a very light coloured fat elf, which was kind of silly considering he was supposed to be slightly more tanned (not a huge armount, but still) and, well, not fat, heh.
Just wondered if anything could be done about that, although I doubt it.

Damn good idea! I can't even remember the character description I used at character creation. Time to get back to his RP roots. Gads, I hope there aren't too many typos.

"er... I'm Janus, yer substitute teacher. Were gonna talk bout thet bastard Andrinor taday...."

Works like a combination of the Scribe system and the Custom Race creations system. IE; you speak your description, then it kicks youIt can be done on the abyss server.

Only drawback is that the description length is limited by the speech word limit. Which is far, far too short if you want a long, in depth description.

Being long winded I hit that limit a lot myself. It should be long enough for what is suppose to be what someone notices at a glance. People who write a novella are, I think, sort of missing the point.Liartes wrote:I think the limit you speak of is just the edge of your screen. You can continue typing past that. Though how far I'm not sure. Never hit an actual limit, myself.
As to why you would WANT to view your own, I know many people who put time and effort into a nice custom description only to have it vanish early in their live (not sure why, likely player error on creation) and at least this way they can catch it and decide if they want to remake it or not.
