Is it compatable with WOC or the upcoming TFM?

Most excellent.

I look forward to seeing more of what I've already seen.

I have been playing it with Spells Expander, World of CHa0s, and other plug-ins loaded and, so far, there are no conflicts. TFM has not been released yet but I don't think there would be any conflicts there either. The only problems which might arise would be if someone's plug-in loaded a map on top of a Damsels map. Unlikely.

It will be even less unlikely if you update the "Ducky Map" to include the maps that Damsel's inserts. 🙂

I noticed the screen shots are all of a conjuror. Will these be playable by all characters? Are there differences for who you play with?

EDIT--it says "before they are harmed by the kidnappers", does this mean there is a time limit?

Geeze, gimmie a break! I can't do that until I've finished Damsels.

Note to my beta testers: Thank you for your patience, the final version will be uploaded before the weekend is over. I'm finishing up the final dialogues in the last scene now.

This is playable by any character with or without Trinity loaded. There are no class-specific quests or items. Even the one weapon (a sword) can be used by all. It is a "special" sword. There are no time limits as such, but four young girls have their lives in jepardy. You be the judge of how to handle the situations. 🙂 ~RD

Is that the final version for your beta testers...or just the final version??? I can hardly wait!!!

P.S. regarding WoC I asked you about in another post....I lost the RoD thingy...is that normal....and I just cannot seem to find the "place and/or thing" the "inscription" speaks of??? I have the "cool" thing, but nowhere to use it. Totally clueless now.

Thanks in advance for your help...and judging by the screenshots, the DiD looks like it will be great fun!!

My All-Star team of beta testers will have a chance to whack the daylights out of my plug-in and try to break it before I can release it to the rest of you. I have tried to squash all the bugs before they do this, but I can't be sure until they do the things to it that I haven't thought of doing.

There are two separate things here. RoD (Ritual of Desecration) is part of the Spells Expander plug-in by Stark Bledfast and the other "cool" item comes from World of CHa0s by CHa0s (of course.) I suggest you post a new thread on these and would hope that the respective authors would respond in the way they best see fit. The questions might get lost in this thread.

Thanks. I certainly hope so. 😄

You can use any character you wish. The plug-in is designed so that someone who has a new character will be able to start right in. The first encounter takes place in Fantrima, but the first action starts at the Tearos River bridge. You must have helped complete that bridge before you can proceed with the quests. This usually happens at about level 10.

I would suggest to the player that they not take too many shortcuts. The use of tunnels is fine when they are open, but teleporting directly to where you think you might be going might take you beyond a clue. If you meet someone who suggests that you walk the road to Berglum, perhaps it is best for you to do so. Who knows what you might find along the way.

I know how long it takes to build up a strong character, and I don't want anyone to give up that fellow for the sake of a new adventure. (You certainly can if you wish.) You are going to need a strong character to complete the plug-in because there are some challenges ahead of you. 🙂

Well, most of my characters are at level 15-20 (I could never move on through the quests because I didnt know I had to type in "order of seasons" in the learning tree for my next quest), so will they work?

I think you can go back to the tree and pick up the thread where it was broken. If not, how do you ever complete a game? I know, most of us don't really ever want to complete a game. We just wait for the next plug-in to come along. I'll drop a tiny hint on the boards here. The final scenes take place on the other side of the Guardian's chamber. But don't tell anyone about that or it might spoil their fun. 😄

Well, as soon as I figured it out I finished with my Ranger, and I got far with my Conjuror to get the pandoras box, but I do not have anyone remotely close to "starting out"

That's OK. Go with whomever you have as long as they are able to eventually get past the Guardian.

Sounds good. Does it use any characters from SE or WoC?
