[edit] Welcome to D&D Wiki

Hello Eiji, and on behalf of Green Dragon, welcome to D&D Wiki! Thank you for your contributions. We hope you like D&D Wiki and decide to stay. Green Dragon is the owner of the site (though he's unavailable right now), and if you have a question feel free to ask me in his absence, however when contacting anyone on D&D Wiki through talk pages please sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. Also, if you want to help D&D Wiki but just don't know how drop me a note and I'll see what I can do. (Alternatively, you can leave a message on Green Dragon's talk page. I and a few others keep tabs on the discussions going on there.) However, when leaving a note please indicate how much time you would like to spend working, how well you know the Wiki Format, and how well you know D&D. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a D&D Wikian! If you need help ask me on my talk page, Green Dragon's talk page, or just right here. Again, welcome! —Sledged (talk) 12:41, 2 July 2007 (MDT)

[edit] Nomination for Adminship

Hey! I just nominated you for adminship. I hope you make it :). However, you really should fill out the "Candidates Prelude" information on that page and you should probably also make a user page (since so many things are linking to it right now, like the main page, etc, and it looks unprofessional to not have one :)). Again, hope you make it :). --Green Dragon 16:32, 27 November 2007 (MST)

Sadly you did not make adminship... Maybe next time :). --Green Dragon 22:54, 4 December 2007 (MST)

@-@ The things that happen when I vanish for a week. Come and gone before I even knew....

Well, I suppose it doesn't matter. I still need to get a handle on things (and more time, what with Xmas season working at KB Toy does not let you rest). I do have one question though, how do I make a user page? -- Eiji 00:03, 5 December 2007 (MST)

Follow the red link in your signature (or the red "user page" link at the top of this page), fill in whatever info you'd like to give about yourself, and hit "save page." —Sledged (talk) 02:33, 5 December 2007 (MST)

I think we should re-nominate you Eiji, for the reason that I stated here. --Sam Kay 11:28, 5 December 2007 (MST)

Maybe after Christmas would be a better time, seeing that Eiji works at a toy shop (right?) and I do not think it would be the best idea to re-nominate someone within the same month... Although a re-nomination does seem like a good idea. --Green Dragon 14:57, 5 December 2007 (MST)

Yeah, I agree. --Sam Kay 08:19, 6 December 2007 (MST)

I agree too, whew. Well, user page is up, have a look-see! -- Eiji 22:41, 6 December 2007 (MST)

Good luck for January! --Sir Milo Teabag 12:03, 8 December 2007 (MST)

Also, I am sure Sledged would be proud of how your user page looks :P. --Green Dragon 21:29, 9 December 2007 (MST)

So, you still want to go for it? It is January now :P... --Green Dragon 12:35, 15 January 2008 (MST)

Let's do it! -- Eiji 13:21, 15 January 2008 (MST)

Requests for Adminship/Eiji --Green Dragon 13:44, 15 January 2008 (MST)

And, it has ended. --Green Dragon 01:32, 23 January 2008 (MST)

Welcome to Adminship. You are now, as Dmilewski once put it, part of "The Face" of D&D Wiki. Honestly, as you will notice, not much has been changed now that you are an admin. If anything, I would say more burden is placed on you. But first, for the the new features and there uses. You can now delete pages, protect pages, rollback edits, block users and IP's, edit every page, patrol edits, and do a couple more minor things.

What it is

• What deleting pages is, is self explanatory.
• What protecting pages is, is also pretty self explanatory.
• Rolling back edits is a method for removing spam. It is more powerful than the conventional method of undoing edits. Instead of showing a diff of the edit in question once clicked, it instantly rollsback all the edits by the user or IP in question on a certain page. For example if I edited my user page and you clicked "rollback" on that edit it would rollback all the edits up to the point where someone else has edited it. Be careful using this, it can be very helpful but also very harmful.
• What blocking users and IP's is, is also self explanatory.
• Editing every page is another self explanatory one.
• Patrolling edits is a method for keeping RC in check, it can be seen once a diff is clicked. All it does is, once "Mark as Patrolled Edits" is clicked, it marks the edits as patrolled so the edit will no longer show up on RC when "Hide Patrolled" is marked.

When or how it should be used

• Deleting pages is normally done through Category:Candidates for Deletion. Anything with a good reason to be deleted on that page should be deleted. The other time pages should be deleted is when someone makes a certain page and after a few edits they either blank the page or replace it with something like "Please delete this". They don't want to work on it, and unless it is really well made and fleshed out, just delete it.
• Protecting pages has quite a few different times when it should be used. Pages should be protected according to the author's wishes (with Template:Locked Page added to the top of the page in question), in case of conflict (with Template:Temp Locked Page added to the top of the page in question), in case of OGC published materials (with Template:OGL Top added to the top of the page in question and Template:OGL Bottom added to the bottom), or finally if the page is a vital part of D&D Wiki's organization. If it deals with D&D Wiki's organization it either needs to be be protected from IP edits or all non-sysop edits. As a rule of thumb pages up to two tiers deep from the Main Page are normally locked to anyone but sysops and all the others are just protected from IP edits. For Example Dungeons and Dragons is protected from all non-sysop edits whereas a deeper in page like LA 0 Races is only protected from IP edits. No template has to be added to pages if thay are part of D&D Wiki's organization (even though some do exist like Template:Admin Locked Page)
• Blocking a user or IP should only be used after an IP or user vandalizes a certain page. To block someone just click "block" (found either on RC or the diff in question) and fill out the corresponding form. For a typical vandalism attack I normally block the user for two weeks. If I'm in a bad mood from vandalism or a certain discussion, then I sometimes block them for up to a month. No standards have been set for block lengths, so it is currently really up to you when you block the user or IP.
• Editing every page on D&D Wiki mostly means you can now edit the SRD and the MSRD. Feel free to edit them if you find inaccuracies. Also, if you want to, for lack of a better word, major in the SRD (as Dmilewski has done) or the MSRD (as EldrithNumen has done) take a look at SRD Talk:System Reference Document#SRD ToDo List or MSRD Talk:Modern System Reference Document#Tasks to see what needs to be done within the SRD or MSRD. There is never enough help to get it all done, so I am sure your help would be appreciated.
• Patrolling edits should, in a nutshell, be used when you have looked over an edit and fixed everything that needs to be fixed (this includes answering questions, sending MoI's, etc). If you decide to, for a lack of better words, major in RC (as I have :)) then marking edits as patrolled will become commonplace and extremely helpful. Below is how to "major" in recent changes, which would be a great help to D&D Wiki and I. First off load recent changes and press "Hide patrolled edits". Next click any diff and look at the change. Only if you are 100% sure that the edit is okay (taking formatting standards, page-linking (using the "what links here?" function), answering questions, sending MoI's, and line spacing between comments and/or the "Back to" footer into consideration) then mark the edit as patrolled. If the edit is not okay then all you have to do is fix the problem then mark the edit as patrolled. It's simple, but looking over every edit on D&D Wiki really keeps it looking and running well. In my opinion, it is the most vital part of D&D Wiki. Even marking only 20 edits as patrolled every day would be extremely helpful with this never-ending task.

I know this is really long-winded, so I'll keep the rest short. You have more burden on youself now that you are an admin because users will be looking at you for editing help, knowledge of the standards, etc etc. It's a bit more work, but I really hope you enjoy being an admin and I hope you decide to stay around on D&D Wiki for a while more to come. Welcome to Adminship, again, as Dmilewski once put it, you're now part of "The Face" of D&D Wiki. --Green Dragon 01:32, 23 January 2008 (MST)

Whew, much to work on. Thank you, I'll hold the title with honor and oven mitts (honorable oven mitts). -- Eiji 16:45, 23 January 2008 (MST)

:). --Green Dragon 22:47, 23 January 2008 (MST)

[edit] User Page

Nice user page. I'm flattered. BTW, I went digging through the logs and found the date you created your username on the wiki, and inserted the date in your page. —Sledged (talk) 16:08, 7 December 2007 (MST)

Domo arigato Mr. Sledgedboto. -- Eiji 22:20, 7 December 2007 (MST)

[edit] DBZ Conversion

good luck with the state alchemist into D&D format, also very nice conversion of DBZ moves into D&D attacks. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Archangel (talk • contribs) 18:36, 10 February 2008 (MST). Please sign your posts!

Why thank you. Eventually I'll work up that Superhuman/Super Saiyan prestige class at well. I'm thinking epic. -- Eiji 20:06, 10 February 2008 (MST)

[edit] Moving

Trouble in the lands of reality, I have been and may still be only half here while I handle some terrible RL troubles. I shall return in full, I promise. -- Eiji 14:55, 25 March 2008 (MDT)

Sounds good :). Thanks for keeping us updated. --Green Dragon 01:30, 26 March 2008 (MDT)

Alright, I'm back, mostly. Time to ease back into posting flow. -- Eiji 22:38, 10 April 2008 (MDT)

[edit] Thanks

I never thanked you, You kinda helped get into the flow of this site, so i wanted to thank you for all your help.Summerscythe 15:17, 29 May 2008 (MDT)

Awww, it's no problem. Why, thank you. :D I hear you're trying to get the tavern hopping again (I'm in now actually, it's populated!) so I hope to see you in there soon. -- Eiji 21:31, 29 May 2008 (MDT)

[edit] D&D Game

Sorry, I alway played 2nd edition and im a little confused about how to do my char. Im not sure also if my characters concept suit you. Anyway if you could help me a little i would appreciate. With all grace to the mighty Eiji--Lord Dhazriel 23:52, 7 June 2008 (MDT)

Ah ha ha. I'm not that great, but thank you. Now, I will claim complete ignorance on 2e (I started in 3.5e) but I'll try to help where I can. Unfortunately, where do I start? The only major changes I can recall off hand is THAC0 turning into AC, weapon size changes, and spell changes. There's more I'm sure of course, where do I start?

Anyway, hit me with your concept. :D -- Eiji 16:35, 8 June 2008 (MDT)

You can find them on my user page, by the way when the game begin.--Lord Dhazriel 17:23, 8 June 2008 (MDT)

[edit] Live Forever

"Must convert self into D&D form, and live forever!" lol watch out for inevitables XD --Jack Bread 23:45, 20 July 2008 (MDT)

[edit] I had a question

The Spell you made, Ell's Handy Homunculus, is awesome, but me and my roomie were wondering if a Plushie spellcaster (btw Plushies are my new favorite race) can make one and how, as they possess no blood of their own. Just a question.- Tripp Thorne

Thank you kindly. You most certainly can use it. Plushie blood is stuffing, so you can use that to supplement for the blood component.

(That's crazy! I have blood! It's right inside this sack of meat here!)

Eiji Plushie, what are you doing, I'm not a sack of mEAATAAAGAGHJHFJOHHWFJHKJAWHjk3rjafsf

...-- Eiji 15:17, 20 August 2008 (MDT)

Another quick question: Is it cool if I post some Plushy Feats I've been working on? - Tripp Thorne

Go for it! -- Eiji 09:27, 22 August 2008 (MDT)

[edit] Question: Bladed Fan

My question concerns this: "Larger or smaller fans create larger or smaller effects. It is the maximum amount of damage your fan is capable of down one size category. (A Large fan, dealing 1d6 damage, creates a 5 mph wind every +1, and a Small fan, dealing 1d3, does 2 mph)." Is that simply supposed to be the maximum damage of the weapon -1? I ask because "5" isn't a maximum damage of any weapon at any size category. I also ask because gargantuan and colossal fans get out of hand pretty quickly (2d6 gargantuan would produce 11mph per point of strength bonus, producing tornado winds with only a strength modifier of +16. And a colossal version would be even easier to produce tornado winds with (strength modifier +11; keeping even gargantuan and colossal creatures checked).

Also, what area (size, shape) does the wind take place in? Is it a cone emanating from the user? Is it a line? How long does the wind last?

And, lastly, does the full round action provoke attacks of opportunity? --Nox_Noctis

Good catch there, looks like I mixed up some of the old text with the new text when I had it based on a different system, and ended up making it even more confusing. It happens, and now its fixed, making it difficult to use, and provoking AoOs to prevent abuses from very strong PCs with huge Str scores and huger fans. I've made the alterations and clarifications needed. -- Eiji 00:15, 26 August 2008 (MDT)

[edit] Question: Kopiko Draw Spell-like Ability

How is the Will (save; word left out in the race entry) DC determined? Which ability modifier does it use? --Nox_Noctis

Default is always 10 + 1/2 HD + Cha, btu I'll go clarify that now. -- Eiji 13:55, 26 August 2008 (MDT)

[edit] Question about the Domain Time Warp

Hello, my name is Santiago Mendez, my user name is Sarrow. I was wondering if I could use your cleric domain Time Warp for a Deity that I am making? -Sarrow 15:35, 11 September 2008 (MDT)

By all means. :D Everything on the Wiki is free to use. I'm flattered you like my work, by all means. -- Eiji 07:38, 14 September 2008 (MDT)

Yeah, the deity is Aetas, the Father of Time. -Sarrow 14:14, 14 September 2008 (MDT)

[edit] Nezumi

Thanks for the info; I wasn't sure there was a nezumi so I decided to make one.--Arael 17:21, 19 September 2008 (MDT)

[edit] Barnstar

	Anti-Vandal Barnstar
	This one is for reverting the childish edits to the Chuck Norris page so quickly. The page always seems to attract vandals, and Eiji was quick to get it reverted. --Aarnott 11:24, 22 July 2008 (MDT)

[edit] AHHHHHHH!!!!

AHHHH! AHHHHH!!!! What am I doing?? I don't know! You wrote on my page and I wanted to write back! Eiji! I want to draw Lord Eiji for his page on the wiki at some point, if you don't mind. I realize I've committed to drawing a whole pile of things already, but I want to add that one to the list because I saw he had not picture yet and I thought it would be fun to draw. AHHHH!!!! --Lumi 20:28, 25 October 2008 (MDT)Lumi

AAAAHHHH!!!!!! AAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!! OMG AAAAAHHHHH!!!! Lord Eiji, holy crap yes, AAAHHHHH!!!! I shall PM you pictures of his plush continence, just add wings and ears and tail, and then DELICIOUSNESS! Go on, I dare you to SHOW ME YOUR MOVES! YES!

LUMI PAWNCH! -- Eiji 21:04, 25 October 2008 (MDT)

AHHH!!!! You dared me and I did it! Mostly! But you are asleep!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Now I have to wait until tomorrow to find out what you think! --Lumi 02:27, 27 October 2008 (MDT)Lumi

AAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!! King Eiji is preparing a SOLAR PLUSHIE PAWWWWWNCH! You have won INTERNETS and LONGCATS! TOP SCORE!!! -- Eiji 09:44, 27 October 2008 (MDT)

[edit] Spellborg Feat

Hey I made this in a moment of creativity. Improved Spellborg I hope you don't mind. Tell me what you think of it. --Lord Dhazriel 13:51, 30 October 2008 (MDT)

Hmmm, interesting. I'll look at the balance later, but the concept of expanding template powers with feats is novel. -- Eiji 20:22, 30 October 2008 (MDT)

[edit] Sky Eye and the Clockwork subtype

I looked at your creature entry for Sky Eye (DnD Creature) and there was no accompanying link for the clockwork subtype. Also, what does Locomotion and Observation do for a Sky Eye? --Gedren56 15:48, 17 November 2008 (MST)

I forgot to link it, didn't I? I do have the clockwork subtype page around here somewhere. When I return, in a rush.

The short of it is that Locomotion and Observation are the subjects it is allowed to act "intelligent" on, using it's Cha as Int for the purposes of movement and watching things, so it won't easily be tricked by a wall in the way or by someone hiding, and it'll remember. However, for all other subjects, say, combat, it's generic construct programming. "I hit it again!" -- Eiji 15:52, 17 November 2008 (MST)
