http://minmax.ermarian.net/dikipedia.html This began as an innocent, curious attempt to group those appearing in Dikiyoba's scripts by the sorts of abilities they had. Then it became a bit more expansive. Look, just be glad there's no mediawiki involved :P The groupings are based on what people actually do in the scripts (thus Ash Lael is not listed as a Scripter) and they only cover significant (and generally stereotypical) skill sets that also overlap with others. So we have Fighters and Mages, for example. No Thieves -- Lurkers instead. I tried to make this somewhat modular, so there is no Evil Overlord skill set. There is a set that's close, though. The numbers keep track of order of apperance, beginning at 1 with Episode 1 and jumping to 101 and then 201 for the following episodes. There are some interesting lists at the bottom of the page. I had something more to say about this, but I can't remember what. So, I'll just hit the post button and be done with it. -------------------- Slarty vs. Desk • Desk vs. Slarty • Timeline of Ermarian • G4 Strategy Central Posts: 3560 | Registered: Wednesday, November 7 2001 08:00 |

An honorable undertaking, Slarty. Something I don't understand, though, is that while I am still listed as dead, I am currently having a conversation with Garrison. I do remember dying, and I also recall killing him, but I don't recall either of us getting revived. Perhaps there is some law of Dikiphysics or Dikispirituality that allows us to communicate after we're dead. If that's the case, please forgive my ignorance. I still need to brush up on my Dikihistory. :P -------------------- Do not provoke the turtles.

My understanding is that both of you were in misc, which is like the dead people place. [ Friday, January 19, 2007 17:16: Message edited by: Kyrek ] Posts: 626 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

Also you can pretty much do whatever you were capable of doing while alive, including getting killed (This happened to Tyranicus in E2). -------------------- I tried to think of something witty to put here. Needless to say, I failed. Posts: 2686 | Registered: Friday, September 8 2006 07:00 |

So...I've been revived by Ephesos twice? Perhaps I should reconsider killing him and making him my undead minion (see my bonus script). And recently, I can cast Ice Rain. Now all that's left for my fictional self to use is that Ice Blast spell from Geneforge, and any other ice spell in existence! EDIT: Note to selfe, be sure to check for number of e's.

That's funny...I don't recall killing anyone. You'd think a guy would remember something like that.

I'm kind of surprised there aren't as many homicides on that list. Even moreso that I'm one of the few people that has two user kills to his name. I've come to the conclusion that scripters are like the magic users in D&D. Entirely useless in the beginning, but WMDs as they progress (I actually have a lot of progress yet to make before I'm any good, in reality). -------------------- Do not provoke the turtles.

I dunno bout that. The Scripters haven't really done much aside from slowing down the n00b army with traps in Episode 1. Even that was a mixed success -- TM was killed by his own scripts. And both Kelandon and TM seem to have more powerful abilities outside of scripting (bans, and DIE!). I mean really, from a gameplay perspective, Ephesos is completely broken. -------------------- Slarty vs. Desk • Desk vs. Slarty • Timeline of Ermarian • G4 Strategy Central Posts: 3560 | Registered: Wednesday, November 7 2001 08:00 |

I think it's more like Ephesos has revealed more of his abilities than almost anyone else.

No, that's a rather egregious omission. I was waffling on what to do about his death count. He has at least one discrete pseudodeath before he is actually ripped apart by the undead in Episode 1, but (among other things) it's not clear how many deaths that death is really made up of. Death like legos. -------------------- Slarty vs. Desk • Desk vs. Slarty • Timeline of Ermarian • G4 Strategy Central Posts: 3560 | Registered: Wednesday, November 7 2001 08:00 |

I like MediaWiki a lot. The point is that I wasted an absurd enough amount of time just typing into a spreadsheet. (I made whole columns of the necessary tags, copied and pasted.)
