Updates

This is the list for the updates, both to mechanics, rules, and anything else that isn't RP related. The list will read as the newest changes on top, and the oldest on the bottom.

  • Gold/XP purchase with AP has been combined. It is now 500xp/gold for 2 AP. This is to keep players gold in check, and so the character is earning most of it's XP during RP or quests. The amount of times you can purchase gold/xp is = to that level. 1/4/2013
  • We are no longer accepting Race submissions. Gaia currently has 7 core races, 14 beast races, 9 alternative races, 2 Ap races, and 6 Template races. Most of which have various archetypes. If you are interested in playing a race not shown here, keep in mind that through continuing play and contributions to our growing setting you can earn ap and request a special character subject to approval. 9/24/12
  • Added 3 new races, Changeling, Numok, Merfolk. Added 1 new diety, Mahalik. 9/24/12
  • Players must now log in with the character that they are RPing with. This is to keep players from having one high level character with many level 1 characters sitting around. 8/28/12
  • The AP awarded for character surveys is now per character instead of per player, meaning character survey pays for evil alignment or for 4 AP useable on that character. 7/13/12
  • Added AP expenditure option for redoing feats/skills/class specific options, etc. after the character is already approved. 2 Ap or 1k XP. If the character is not level 2, it is reset back to 0/1,000 XP. 7/11/12
  • When doing a survey, it is advised, for simplicity sake, to create a new tab on the char sheet, and copy/paste the survey there. Also, ensure you put the OPTIONALSURVEY tag on the char sheet when you update it, so that ops know there is a survey there waiting to be checked, both so non-evil PCs can be awarded AP (credited towards the players count), and evil PC's can be checked. 7/10/12
  • Removed AP price for Evil Alignment. Instead, all Evil Alignment PCs are required to complete a survey upon creation, to ensure the player has a good grasp of the type of character they are playing, as well as allow the Ops to ensure the player has a proper understanding of what evil entails. 7/10/12
  • Added Anti-Paladin to core classes. 5/30/12
  • Added Mer and Naga to the Races List. 5/30/12
  • Added an ECW portion to the profile template, so people will hopefully keep track of their ECW, or questing gear, and easier for an Op to keep an eye on such things as well. 5/22/12
  • Removed 'Multi-Talented' from Half-Elves, since the favored class rule isn't in work here. 5/21/12
  • Changed Summoner to actual Pathfinder, and not the variant it was. 5/19/12
  • A new rule is in place in the room. Everyone within the channel is an adult, and should be able to communicate with each other in an adult fashion. Because of a large amount of snide/backhanded/smartass comments that are floating around, we are implementing a '3 strikes and your out' rule. If an op sees you saying anything that might be disrespectful, you will be warned. It is understood that people banter playfully, but if there is something that is -obviously- beyond playful banter, then the op will talk to you about it and warn you. You will be given the chance to fix your behavior before any real actions are taken. If this happens 3 times within a certain span of time, the third time will result in a kick from the channel, as the 'last chance' moment. If it continues to be a problem after that, you will begin to lose xp from your highest level character. If it STILL remains to be a problem, you run the risk of being temporarily (or permanently) banned from the channel. 5/12/12
  • Changed EXP gained by spending 1 AP to 500 xp. 5/12/12
  • Made Lich/Vampire Evil to begin with, requiring 5 AP for any other alignment. 5/12/12
  • Edited Ryu to be less powerful. 5/12/12
  • All chars with an X by their name on the chars page need to have stats fixed because of new stat buy change. 4/24/12
  • Stat buying system altered. Instead of having 34 points, players now have 28 to distribute. 4/24/12
  • Edited AP given for bringing in players. 4/20/12
  • Fly Skill is being replaced with Pilot Skill. 4/1/12
