User:OM1E5GA/Player Contributions

This page is for me to organize my notes about things that exist in Elanthia as a result of RP between players that GMs took notice of or as memorials/monuments to characters that may or may not still be wandering the lands. In many, if not most, cases documentation of these items from the time they came to be has been lost to the general player base and in some cases even the current generation of GMs have little or even no idea that these things came to be because of or are named after various players that have blessed us with their presence in Elanthia. As a result, almost all my notes come from accounts solicited from other players or directly witnessing the RP that inspired the items.

If anyone has other items, can fill in missing pieces on existing items, or has corrections please feel free to leave your input in the DISCUSSION tab for this page, email me (OM1E5GA@play.net), or poke me on Discord (Starchitin#9989). For the purposes of this page, I'm excluding changes to the world made as a result of GM-run storylines unless there's evidence that those changes wouldn't have been made without a particular player's contribution.

Wehnimer's Landing

• Many streets in the Landing were named after the earliest players in GS. Professions given where known.

Confirmed: Airioch Lane, Atropa Street (cleric), Beolost Road, Cheridin Avenue (healer), Dagmar Lane, Erebor Square, Lanthar Road (bard), Lyon Way (ranger), Mikhail Street, Parsnips Street, Penna Street (healer), Riverwind Street, Stormarm Street (fighter), Taarna Road, Talon Street (ranger), Winter Street (thief), Wisraith Lane, Valeria Street,

• Sagan has a hideout for those that know how to get to it

[Sagan's Alley, Hideout]
Warm, dry, and well lit, the pleasant ambiance of this mid-sized chamber belies its seedy, subterranean location.  Despite cobwebs in the corners, the floor is newly swept and all dust has been cleared from the makeshift furnishings, as if in readiness for the owner's arrival.  A small niche has been chipped from the plaster, and some of the lathing has been removed to form a shelf within.
Obvious exits: out

• The orphanage was the result of RP between Seomanthe and Greganth

• Many memorials to players are located in Halcyon Hills. Unfortunately who most refer to is lost even to GMs, but most things that can be interacted with are in relation to a character. More info here

Solhaven

• Bresnahanini roltons reportedly received their name as a result of the player Artuero being killed by a rolton immediately after titling (reaching level 20), "Bresnahanini" was his surname. The in-game description references rumors they killed "a lord or two".

River's Rest

• Worn patch of grass in the Commons is a memorial to the player Widlebeest, who spent a couple decades kneeling there picking boxes before retiring from the lands.

• The large wooden herbal crate under the bench was dragged there by Starchitin and decorated by giantkin empath whose name has been lost.

• The catapult found along the Tempest River was placed there as a result of years of RP involving most of the player residents threatening to fling Starchitin to the mainland to be rid of him. No information has been given as to who actually built it, but the fact it's pointing the wrong way might be a clue.

• The "anonymous stack of one hundred and thirty table legs" by the tables in The Stone Eye is there because of Vindartin, who was obsessed with collecting table legs. Claimed to be freeing them, more info can be found here

Icemule

• Need Icemule residents to help!

Teras Isle

• Drizzsdt has an office in the Teras Warrior Guild to honor him for being the first Master of Arms

[Guild Hall, Drizzsdt's Office]
Daylight spills through tall arched windows, infusing this office with radiant warmth.  Though spartanly furnished, it provides a welcome retreat for all who enter.  Rows of oak shelves, arrayed with tomes, trophies, and mementos, bracket an enormous stone fireplace above which hangs a striking oil portrait.  In the center of the room, offering a convenient gathering place for discussion and banter, sits a long scarred oaken table surrounded by high-backed chairs.  A large oak desk rests opposite the fireplace.

• The Huntress and lore surrounding her is the result of RP involving Kyrion, Warble, & Bleeds. Partial information here, but need more.

• The Dhe'nar culture developed from player RP during the ICE age and were called Dyari Elves at the time. Starshadow, Starsnuffer, and Corrig have all been mentioned as major contributors to the RP.

• Tehiri god "al-Rakeesh" appears in the Sea of Fire, created as a result of Maliku's RP:

[Sea of Fire, Head of the Hammer - 25230]
The crown of the rock formation is strangely flat, worn smooth by wind-driven grit.  Remnants of a campfire near the center suggest that the plane has been used as a place of safety, and recently, at that.  Just before the sheer edge drops off onto the swirling desert below, there is an incised copper disk incised into the stone.
Obvious paths: down
>l disk
A quintet of spheres is etched into the face of the disk, four smaller ones of varying sizes orbiting around one much larger.  A streak bisects half of the etching, following a small starburst point.
There appears to be something written on it.
>read disk

In the Tehir language, it reads:

The hammer of Al-Rakeesh
falls upon the unwary world
shattering all things to stardust.
