Default Re: Do I know you? (aka To floaty text, or not to floaty text)

Quote:
Players can select to turn on/off the floaty text above their own characters head. This will help other player realise the character 'is in disguise'. What may be even better is perhaps some automated contest of skills to determine if your character recognises the other character. At success means the floaty text appears over their head (this would be hard to do).

If descriptions are used, Players can edit and self-manage their characters descriptions.
I like the idea of using lorecheck for creatures and NPCs.

If you know a PC, but they are masked/disguised, then a contest of skills bluff/disguise verse spot/perception should be used instead of a lorecheck.
