Fables and Fantasy RP makes use of a custom character system written by our Tech Team. This guide will walk players through every aspect of the system and explain how it should be used.

Overview:

In roleplaying, you play a character. On the server, each character has a unique character card, bank account, inventory, and enderchest that are all linked to that particular character.

Each player is allowed a maximum of two active character slots, and a maximum of three characters can be shelved at once.

Tokens can be collected to purchase a rank to increase this number. To find out which ranks grant additional character slots, players can use the /tokenshop command. Additionally, if players boost the discord server, the maximum number of slots can also be increased by 1.

Each character has their own bank account, inventory, and enderchest. Keep in mind that it is against the rules to share items or money among your characters.

Creating a character

When players first join the server, they are met with a chat message introducing the process of creating a character. Existing players must also use the following command if they want to create a new character:

/char new

Alternatively, the following command also works:

/newcharacter

Instructions will follow in the chat, which the player must follow.

After doing so, players will encounter instructions in the chat that will lead them through the character creation procedure. Players must type in the chat to answer the questions:

Starting with their name:

Then the age of their character. To create an accurate age for their character, players should review the age requirements for the various races on the wiki.

Players can choose the following genders: female, male, and other:

The next step is for players to choose their race. Their relationships on the server, the racial bonuses they will receive, and the appearance of their character all depend on this. All details of this should be reviewed on the wiki.

Following this, players must create a character description, which need not be as detailed as their biography for the whitelist application. A few words about their personality and appearance will suffice.

Players’ performance during Combat Roleplay (CRP) will be influenced by the stat points they choose. For more information on stat points, visit the CRP rules page on the forums. To subtract points from a stat, players must click the - on the left, and to add points, click the + on the right.

The player’s character is now ready for use after they’ve finished the procedure. Now is the time to discover Eden and all it has to offer. To get a summary of their current character, players must type /card.

Selecting a Human character’s race for the first time

Upon joining the server for the first time, or creating a new human character, the server will ask players to select a profile. (In this example, I have selected my human character):

The chat will then explain that the human race has been split into 3 races, and a specific sub-race must be chosen for each of a player’s human characters:


Players must write ‘continue’ in the chat to proceed:

After writing ‘continue’ in the chat, players will be prompted with the following options:

For this character, I chose the ‘Attian Human’ race. There are three Human race options: Attian, Hinterlander, and Khadan.

Players must select whichever race fits their Human character.

Character Information & Switching Characters

To see a list of their current characters, the player must do the following command:

/char list


A list of the player’s characters will appear, along with their statuses:

To switch characters, the player must do the following command. In place of ‘Clarissa Reinhardt’, put your character’s full name:

/characters [character name]

Character Card

A character card consists of the character’s name, age, gender, race, description, and stats for combat roleplay (CRP). These will all be selected during the character creation and some options can be changed later on.

To access a character’s information card, the player must do the following command. To view their own character card, the player must do the following command:

/card


To view other players’ cards, the player must /card [character]. For example:

/card [character name]


Alternatively, players can shift+right click on a character to view their card.
