How do you pronounce Myon? (Noob Questions)

[Teshil]

What is someone from arelith called?

How do you pronounce Myon?

Is there no warning at all when switching servers?

[MalKalz]

Going from my own perception of it:

Arelithian.

My-on.

Other than the you are portalling message - you will get used to the transitions and know which are server swaps eventually.

[Mr_Rieper]

Agreed on all the above points but clarifying the one a bit further.

It's Mai-on. Rhymes with Scion. Not Me-on.

[Teshil]

Thanks all. Is it definitely mai-on to all?

Can I have a dominated creature, mage familiar, and summon out all at once?

When Improved invisibility wears off after rounds\lvl does the conceal continue for turns\lvel?

[Lorkas]

Yep

[Rwby]

Yes, yes, also yes.

There is no warning on server transitions aside from they are all at sensible places, IE when you transfer from the Pax Cordoria to the rest of the Island, or from the rest of the Island to another plane of existance. The transitions never move, so once you've figured them out you can just remember them and I [Think!] they all lead onto what are effectively non hostile or very very mildly hostile maps, so the fact you get dewarded isn't too much of an issue. [Remember you also lose any -disguises you have!]

Funny, I say My-on like DM Spyre said. He didn't say Me-on.

But then I am the guy that pronounces just about everything wrong. For years I say Drow like grow instead of like brow. I say scimitar incorrectly as well as 10000000000 other things,lol.

but in my book its "My-on"

[kittenblackfriends]

Mī-awn to me. Still rhymes with scion.

[High Primate]

"Mai-on" is incorrect. It's myawn. One syllable.

Source: a elf.

[Opustus]

Me-on sounds much more Elven to me, My-on is like... American accent?

[kittenblackfriends]

Sila tiri amrun kala dar su fi ohn ne sprien na leila
Mel blowien suume singien ar ne du ar nande
Tke lle hen no me sri ai no koro sve eitwa
Mel melamin, lisse amrun kala

Both sound equally elven to me. Then again, I could be remembering these lyrics wrong.

[Teshil]

Thanks everyone. Here's a few others:

1. Is it appropriate now and then to send a "lol" tell or the like to give ooc feedback?

2. Are books like Volo's Guides OK for my characters to know and have IC?

3. Are there advanced NPC merchants somewhere with high level equipment for sale, or do players get things like this from other players' stores?

(Also, sheesh, Opustus has been here a month already? I'm late to the mass Amian defection!)

[Astral]

1. You can send em whatever you want, tells are considered OOC. Just be nice and remember some view feedback as criticism.

2. Keep in mind arelith is a bit stuck in the past and doesn't go by the normal forgotten realms Dale Reckoning. But I couldn't find a source when Volo published the book in the realms officially? So i guess it's good to go?

3. Might want to try and befriend some Enchanters along the way.

Do you actually understand those lyrics? Because I know I spelled them wrong >_>

Edit: FOUND THE ORIGINAL LYRICS

Sila, tiri amrun kala
sii e' i' tyela i' sprien naa lela
mel blowien suume
singien ndu i' emyn ar' nande
tuke lle hen no' me
sii lye naa no' i' reena' en' ilya
mel melamin, lisse' amrun kala
dar ten' amin lle've wanwa sai- haiya
uuvea hae

At least some of Volo's guides were 2E, before the timeline of Arelith (though after the time of the FL server, I think).

[kittenblackfriends]

I used Volo's Guide for things commoners would know (like certain songs from the Dalelands). You have to remember, most things written about gods or high people in government, the average person probably won't know. Nor would they know about treasure stashes hidden places (not like that matters).

[Diilicious]

huh, weird, ive never thought it had any special pronounciation, ive always said it exactly as it looks, Myon.

[Artos13]

A sandwich just isn't a sandwich without Myonese Mayonnaise.

[Cuchilla]

Like Lyon. Not the French city, but the African animal. I think. Or don't

[Jack Oat]

What is someone from arelith called?

A fool.

How do you pronounce Myon?

"Soon-to-be Ruins."

Is there no warning at all when switching servers?

Sadly nothing you can respond to or back out from.

Yeah I was agreeing with him, but trying to find another way to show what the sound is. They are the same sound.

My and mai and Mī. Mostly the same sound, with a hard I.

Myon should rhyme with lion and scion. It doesn't rhyme with peon or Leon (The given name) .

[Teshil]

Thanks everyone. I thought it'd be like Lyon, France too, but seems that's a minority opinion.

A few more Q's:

1. Are rogue's cunning potions available?
2. Is equipment with immunity to knockdown/mind effects or freedom out there?
3. When someone is disguised and talking, can their portrait be clicked on to see their real username?

[Lorkas]

1. As a loot item, sorta.
2. Freedom can appear on artefacts.
3. Mechanically, yes. Don't metagame that knowledge.

[kittenblackfriends]

Also, re:2, there's a greatsword available in the game at a regular drop point that has a single use of FoM, plus there are FoM wands for divine casters, as well as clarity potions/wands for both caster types. I think there may even be a clarity potion type that was designed to be mundane but isn't - Lemur Wine.
