racial language question
Posted: 19 Dec 2005 12:08 PM
I am new here and wonder if there`s any way to learn other racial languages on vives or is it only possible if you get those racial language widgets from a dm?

As far as I have understood you will need to RP it out with someone who knows the desired language and in the end be granted the language by a DM. As in RP you are learning and the other is teaching.

Yes extra languages are DM granted, and players need to be seen RPing learning the language properly IG.

oh...i've been meaning to address this for a while. one of my characters, Gnimini, was raised by dwarves. he supposedly knew a little gnomish at the time...but could quite possibly have forgotten it during his raising. i was wondering if i could get a dwarven language widget or make my default dwarven or something. I didn't know if i should just PM the DMs or what.

-Gnimini // gnomish wizard facinated with tailoring
-Mirg // young human ranger
-Dredger Hack'nchant // dwarven spellsword
-Hallelujah // gnomish singer and songwriter

Hi yes, please send a PM to "All DMs" from the site, with the background and we will consider the request.

Please note that extra languages for a new character are very rarely granted, because there is sometimes a way to create that character with the required language to start with. (for example) create the character as a dwarf with a thin-set body type, but just tell everyone you are a gnome. (Not applicable in this case though).

Having the ability to speak more than one racial language can be a great benefit IG and even if a character RPs not knowing one language, they still have an OOC advantage.

Can familiars be granted new languages too? My Elf charater has a fairy that I like to possess and RP with sometimes. In theroy, the fairy should understand Elven(possessed or not RP wise). But that is not the case when I possess her. Can something be done about this?

At the moment familiars cannot be given languages.
I am not sure if this is on the radar for the scripters, but it is likely to be a very low priority, because it can be RPed around.

Basicly all languages can be rped around if needs be, the tools just make it faster and easier.

Nightmare this may be, but it's not a dream.
