Hey Adventurers! Our staff got together for a big meeting yesterday and made a few rules changes. They will be added to our published rules soon, but until then, they are in effect.

First, some minor changes:

• Female Drow can now choose to swap their +2 bonus to Intelligence for Wisdom
• The Gray and Sun Elves now have a Level Adjustment of +1. Existing characters are grandfathered in. Our DM team is working on slightly buffing the races to make them worth the Level Adjustment, but these changes are still in development.
• The Psychic Reformation power is banned.
• The Imbue with Spell Ability, Psionic Identify, and Bestow Power spells/powers cannot be used by Spell-casting Improvements.
• Feats that reduce the cost of crafting magic items are banned.
• The Rapid Reload feat works with Renaissance firearms. With this, they take a move action to reload.

New Improvements! We've added two new Improvements to our Organization rules: A Barracks that gives an organization several NPC henchmen, and a Locus that allows the Organization free access to psionic powers.

Rules for Guilds! We've released official guidelines for Guilds fixing prices! Current guild leaders have access to these guidelines, and they will be published soon.

Crafting Points! Characters with magic item-crafting feats will get a reserve of "Craft Points" every level based on the number of crafting feats they have. The exact formula for these points is to be decided soon!

Anniversary Dungeon! Starting November 16th and running for a week, the Axe and Sickle will be holding its second bi-annual Anniversary Dungeon! Our DMs are hard at work putting it together, but start sharpening your chalk and polishing your 10-foot poles!

"So to preface this is posted in literature.cafe’s meta community but this question is primarily aimed at generally anyone in the lemmyverse who is NOT a cisgender man no matter what instance they may be in. The purpose of this thread is to present a stage for conversation for those willing to contribute, and although cisgender men are not excluded I kindly ask you to be mindful of the fact what this thread is meant for and try to avoid talking over others here. If you are a cisgender man interested in learning and seeing how lemmy can improve like I am: welcome. For those who are here to cause issues or talk over others though, you will be promptly removed.

I do not know the demographic data of lemmy, but I would wager a large portion are male. And over the past few weeks I have witnessed women on numerous occasion discuss their discomfort on here. Reddit very much had a very “bro-y” feeling culture for many, that felt like a barrier to entry to many women. With lemmy, there’s a potential to break this. But the answer really is how? Lemmy has begun to develop into its own culture already independent of Reddit quite rapidly, and it’s been awesome to see but I am wondering if there’s a way we can push it a step further and implement ways to make the platform more welcoming to women than Reddit previously did.

Thoughts?"
