I'd like to clarify a few things about the LETO requests section.
We believe that our players are capable of making well-informed decisions. There are both in-game descriptions and a wiki to assist the process, and if anything is unclear DMs are available to provide clarification, whether in-game, on Skype or through this forum. We therefore expect you to consider your options, to choose with care and to abide by the consequences of the choices you make on your character's behalf.
Even so, there are times when changes are called for and we aim to support them where possible, as long as we can offer that support fairly. Most requests we honour fall in one of four categories:
- You want a minor change which you can't make yourself using the tools in-game. This may be something like selecting an animal companion at Ranger 4, changing a tattoo colour or language, or deleting a character from your vault.
- You believe a major event in your character's life warrants a mechanical change. This could be something like trading CHA for INT when a character has become a recluse after suffering social humiliation for instance. Note though that we do not make attribute changes to attributes which are drained through negative HP events. Relevels beyond a single, recently taken level will also be denied for the sake of character consistency.
- You want a change after a recent module update altered the way your character works or could work, and builders invited those who wanted a related adjustment to request one. Alternatively, your character suffers from a long-term bug which was not yet reported when you made your fateful choice.
- You made a decision when you were new to TER's mechanics. Now you're more familiar with the server you regret it and feel it limits your enjoyment of an established character.
We may also honour other requests, so don't hesitate to ask if there's something you want or are unhappy with.
As written above, the choices you make are primarily your own responsibility and so we won't keep tweaking characters whenever you have a change of heart or a new idea. But we are here to help, and hope that together we can ensure your characters look and work as you wanted them to.
