1. KISSMET IN GENERAL
Kissmet is a very much laid back, “free style” kind of server,
based on a social foundation.
Roleplay is encouraged and pretty much widespread, but still not
demanded nor enforced.
Players of all kinds of styles and inclinations make Kissmet
their online home.
Kissmet is an adult themed module 18 yrs old+ and contain both
actions, language and Characters of a sexually oriented nature.
No one under the age of 18 is allowed to play on the server.
Do also keep in mind the concepts of Safe, Sane, and Consensual
(SSC) at all times.
IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to ensure all behavior meets SSC
standards.
The server management would also like to advice that what
happens online, stays online. Neither the Administrator of the
module/ server, nor its DMs will take any responsibility for
whatever might happen to you, should you decide to take take
things outside the confines of the imaginary world which Kissmet
represents.

2. Technical Information
Direct connect address: 178.21.117.146:5121
Must be a member of the forum to get hak paks.
Contact Info:
[Admin] The Keeper
nwnkissmet@gmail.com
If you find that you cannot connect and getting a banned message
and kicking you out of game, it is mostly due to you having a
GoG "generic" cdkey. When you buy from GoG, they give you this
cdkey and you should contact them about a new one.
If you still keep getting kicked, it could mean you are using an
account name already taken. Try something different.
We are using a database that is set up with this security system
that logs your account name to your cdkey to the computer that
is using it.

3. Rules, regulations and DMs
Races (what can I play, any special requirements/ rules/ stats
for certain races?)
Since Kissmet is a social and a quite free-form place, there are
a lot of different races around (both standard ones, as well as
more “advanced” versions) but no set rules for playing them.
Some characters have even been “invented” by their players, with
custom sets of powers and abilities which are Roleplayed.
Just bear in mind you are never allowed to force your roleplay
upon others. Always ask a “target” of your own invented
abilities/ powers if it is okay with them, OOCly first. If you
receive a “no”, then respect it.
SERVER RULES
Please note what is NOT a rule. (DM's pay attention here)
A - Passing others is not forbidden, be courteous, especially if
they are lower level and you spawn critters.
B - Running thru an area not killing spawns. (see A)
C- Not collecting treasure drop
---- Reasons for above NON-rules - it is not required to keep
track of where other players are to move thru areas and nearly
every area has a cleaning script. Five minutes from the last
player leaving a hunting area the script will dispose of all
things left behind, immediate in non-hunting areas. It is better
to clean up after yourself but not required.
0)
ONE HOUSE PER PLAYER !!
There is a script that prevents any one character to owning more
than one house. You -may- own another house on another account.
1)
Players may copulate anywhere they'd like however:
a) only using whisper in the Center or if asked by other players
b.) no using the Sex wand in the Center
2)
No attacking by any means or annoying others with spells in the
Center (ex. darkness) including area of effect spells
You may buff near the sewer but otherwise do it elsewhere
You are ENCOURAGED to have weapons hidden if you're not hunting
3)
No Player vs. Player killing or pickpocketing of characters
rated less than moderate to you (use examine to see their
rating) - Player vs. Player does happen in role play, but this
does not give you the right to walk up to somebody and attack.
This is a feudal society and you will be hunted down eventually,
so don't be an *Bleep* .- Levels from 20-25 then 26-30 then
31-40 are considered equal.
-Must OOC warn the person before an attack and take screenshot
of Proof that you did follow server rules.
Assassination RP may be done outside the level range but
requires OOC knowledge by the victim.
Please do NOT engage in PvP without consent, multiple times will
get you banned. This includes AoE spells that do damage ...
raise and apologize if by mistake, however repeatedly doing this
will cause you grief.
This included the use of the Sex Wand, which now has the option
for consent to be turned on/off.
If you have come to Kissmet and "bait" a higher level character
to start some conflicts, knowing our PvP level limits and try to
put the blame on another to get them into trouble. Think again.
Screenies and logs will be sent to me to figure out who was in
the wrong.
4)
Trespassing is when you enter someone's home somehow without
their permission, please exit at their request. I am aware that
some RP may be setup to invade a home but not without the
residents OOC knowledge.
5)
No Huge player/creatures of any kind in the Center.
6)
No duplicating, or close spelling of other players toon names
and no blank names.
No names resembling racial slurs of any sort in the real world.
Avoid known character names and political figures. ex. Darth
Vader, Jack Bauer, William Clinton etc..
In Kissmet, you may -not- have a title of Lord or Lady unless
earned and approved by the Admin or a DM to notify the Admin
about the approval. You may RP that you are a Lord or Lady from
another land, but shall not have that title in your character
name here.
7)
No role playing of children under the age of 18.
8)
Crafting and customization is a heavy resource utility and it
also affects every player that can see you.
Please refrain from crafting/ customizing in the Center.
9)
Talking about your favorite movie or other things in the real
world should be done in whispers or party chat.
10)
Follow the direction of DM's. Kissmet is a Social server,
roleplay is encouraged not enforced.
However, not following the DM's direction may turn you into a
cow and will cause a visit from The Keeper...
11)
Enjoy your time in Kissmet, that's why we are all here
What do I do if I end up in a conflict with another player ?
If you still should happen to end up in an argue with another
player, try to remain calm.
Most conflicts arises due to misunderstandings between players.
But in any case you should take screenshots (default “Print
Screen” button) of the entire conversation being made.
Try to solve the situation peacefully between you. If agreed
upon, take a break from the game and meet at a later time to
settle the argue, when you both have had time to calm down and
reflect upon things.
If this is not accepted or for any other reason impossible, ask
a DM to mediate (provided there one is around).
Be prepared that the DM might want to take some time before
feeling he/ she is ready to solve the issue, and then respect
his/ her decision, even though it may not be fully to –your-
favor/ liking.

4. Guilds
There are several guilds and organizations around. Most of the
“Public” ones are listed here on the forum.
Look around and see if there is anyone you would like to involve
your character with, then send an appropriate application to the
headmaster of your desired guild.
Do bear in mind various guilds may have their own requirements
or initiation procedures.
How do I start my own guild ?
First of all make sure there isn’t a guild like your idea
already.
There is often no need to have more of the same kind of guild,
for the same type of group or classes.
Requirements would be The Keeper's permission if you wish to
build a Guildhall and add it. Also make sure there is a genuine
need for such a guild as yours, as well as a genuine interest
from a large enough group of players.

5. XP Transfers, Releveling, Alignment changes and general
character editing
Body manipulation: You may alter the physical appearance of your
character at the Welcome area / New You Parlour.
XP transfers: can be done in the New You Parlour with Serette
WITHIN your sign in account.
(From one account to another need to email Admin Lady of the
Cats with the accounts and toon information)
A level 7 transfers XP to a level 5 will give you a level a 1
and a level 8 character
Note.... We recommended that you first:
*make the new character,
*sell your home to someone to hold for you,
*empty your bank account,
*cancel your mail
*transfer all your gold and items by placing them into a chest.
Red Dragon Disciples cannot relevel but you can remove XP using
Serette but she will delete your character and boot you. Please
transfer any gold, items, bank gold and home ownership before
the transfer because removing the xp will -break- the RDD
character is why you can't relevel. You can get your XP back
with a new character.
Re level: Go to the Temple District - Unanimus Temple and speak
to Garrik Caine.
He will give you a second chance but be warned that the first
profession you choose will always be apart of you.
Alignment Change: Can be done in Colwynn's Gate (c5) Temple of
Lights.
Red Sparkle Light = shift towards Chaotic
Red Light = shift towards Evil
Blue Sparkle Light = shift towards Lawful
Blue Light = shift towards Good
Green Light = shift to True Neutral
Note *Do not run through the lights while in party! You will
also change their alignments! They will killz you
Item customization: Via the crafting icon on the radial menu you
will gain access to Lilistria’s customization system, which will
let you alter the appearance of your clothes, weapons and
shields.
Please do not do this in public. Find a secluded area and make
your alterations there.
Furthermore there are a few clothing models in various shops in
the city, you may make use of them in order to alter clothing,
weapon and shield appearance as well.
XP and item transferring
You may transfer XP, gold and items freely between characters of
the same player account, via the XP-transfer character in the
OOC welcome area. Instructions on how to do can be found by
talking to said NPC.
You may however NOT be able to transfer any XP between your
different player accounts using this NPC. If you for any reason
need to do this, contact a DM. Or you can buy XP cookies to give
to anyone.
Character BIO editing
There is now a system for editing your character’s bio as well
as your portrait in the New You Parlour. Type !bio and follow
the instructions on how to edit your bio, even in colors.
The Look Shoppe in Merchant Alley
You may rename any item at the renaming chest by talking to the
NPC (Madame nom’ de’plume) next to the chest.
You may also change the appearance of your wearable gear with
Tanzi. You can change the name and description as well. Boots,
Gloves/Gauntlets, Belts and Jewelry.
Holding bag appearances also can be changed. Remove all your
items and place your holding bag into the proper chest. Tiny
baggies cannot be changed at this time.

6. The Housing System
Kissmet offers the possibility to buy and customize your own
house/ apartment.
However bear in mind that a script prevents any one account to
own more than one house/ apartment. A player (using multiple
accounts) may own more than one house/ap't.
To check what houses are available visit the Real Estate Office
in Center and check the Housing Book there. Buy price and rent
is also displayed. Buy prices are determined where it is
located. Rent prices are determined by the size of the areas for
that home.
House Purchasing and Rent Instructions
1. Find an empty house available for purchase.
2. Check what the price of the house is and make sure that
amount of gold needed for purchase is available in your
character’s bank account.
3. Click on the sign in front of the house and select the
purchase option, then setting up a password for others other
than the purchaser.
4. Remember that owning a home is a PRIVILEGE for ACTIVE
CITIZENS and we thank you for making Kissmet your home.
You will get a message when rent is due and how much it is, upon
login. Failure to pay will only accumulate the rent amount.
If not paid by the 4th week, your home will be foreclosed and
available for purchase.
To pay the rent simply have the proper amount of gold in the
bank and click on the house sign, select the pay back rent
option.
5. Added: If you find a boarded up door, the house is still
available to buy, but just doesn't have an interior. Request
that the old interior be put in or submit your own.
6. Added: Buy prices are based on location.
7. CUSTOMIZATION: (Not all homes may be customized):
Customizations may be done with a limit of 40 total squares of
floor space in max 4 areas and 250 placeables (standard).
The weekly tax for houses are as follows:
Less than 250 placeables = 200,000
250-400 placeables = 750,000
More then 400 placeables = 1,000,000
New Rent rules:
Homes are now based on total areas used @ 1,000 gp per square.
For Example:
3x3 = 9 squares x 1,000 = 9,000 per week
4x4 = 16 squares x 1,000 = 16,000 per week
5x6 = 30 squares x 1,000 - 30,000 per week
A home with 40 squares total (no matter how many areas) = 40,000
per week
Placeables are not counted, but remember that the more you have,
the area could get very laggy. Make each placeable static,
unless its useable.
Customizable houses are:
Plaza - Temple - Plaza Terrace - Colwynn's Gate -
Suburbs - Fighters District (not apts) – Southport - Eastgate
Ones that are NOT are:
El'ruin - Fighters Apartments - Casino - Kastle - Flirting
Mermaid Apts - Private Beaches
Homes may be added to outlying areas, but Buy Price will be
higher and notify Admin of the location.
Sorry, no homes allowed in Underdark area Rule removed. There
are two available.
8. DO NOT use any custom made scripts and/ or import any kind of
items via the inventories of placeables you have in your custom
made house.
Admin checks this as well, and violation of this rule will cause
you problems.
NO CUSTOM SCRIPTS ARE ALLOWED WITHOUT PRIOR AUTHORIZATION FROM
ADMIN. And you can pretty much get a "NO" if the script is only
good for your home and not be able to be used by any other
homes.
Transitions between interior areas should be done by you using
unique tag names.
EX. ptr01_in for a door inside Plaza Terrace 01
9. If you wish to give up your house simply click the sign and
select the sell option.
Bonuses for owning a home! See the list in the Realestate
Agency!
Submit homes to:

7. The teleportation system and use of runes
Kissmet comes with its own custom system for teleportation.
The character Bernes Fly Mc’Quick (found in the merchant alley)
provides the equipment for magically teleport yourself around
the kingdom.
Here is how to do it:
Teleporting around the kingdom is done by placing destination
runes into your "Bag of magic Transportation" and using your
"Doll of Travel" after you did.
There are three type of runes:
- Great Runes (e.g. "The Center", "Southport", "Colwynn's Gate",
etc.)
- Class Runes (e.g. "Fighter", "Cleric", etc." )
- Miscellaneous Runes (e.g. "Inn/Tavern", "Smithy", etc.)
There are three different possibilities to teleport too.
Either you can teleport to a generic location via the great
runes…
Or you can teleport to a specific location via combining runes
in the magic bag.
For example:
( Town + Fighter or Paladin or Barbarian will teleport you to
the Fighter's District)
(Town + Monk or Druid or Ranger will teleport you to Suburbs)
(Town + Cleric or Mage or Sorcerer will teleport you to Temple
District)
You can also teleport to a member of your party by using only
the class runes.
That means: If you f.e. place the "Cleric Rune" into your bag
and use the magic doll, you are transported to the strongest
cleric in your party.
Please - be AWARE, that teleportation is indeed a very powerful
form of magic and to make it work the "Doll of Travel" draws
from your life energy itself.
The more runes you combine to teleport, the more life energy
will be used.
This may even result in your DEATH!
A "super rune" is now available which saves all your explored
areas and a greater list of where to teleport to will be
available (if you were out exploring) and class runes have been
removed and no longer work. If you have this, the Travel Dolly
and Bag are no longer needed.

8. Contributing to the server
As per the server admin’s decision, Kissmet is free for everyone
to contribute to.
However there is a small development team around, who tries to
look into bugs, glitches as well as area development and
remakes. It is however ultimately the Admin’s decision what goes
into the module, and what isn’t.
With that said, here are some recommendations we’d like to give
you before you decide to contribute to Kissmet, though they are
not mandatory:
1. Get to know the module, its players, layout, areas, feel and
atmosphere first. Maybe there is already an area/ shop in the
module that is very similar to what you have in mind for your
contribution ?
2. Ask on the forums what the rest of the community would think
of it. Perhaps such a contribution has been suggested before,
but for some reasons haven’t made it into the module ?
3. Give your idea an extra thought. Do you want to see it inside
the module for strictly personal reasons, or is it something the
majority of the community would also find useful/ interesting ?
Furthermore, imagine one year from now. Will your contribution
still be fun or used, or will it risk to end up forgotten ?
(Naturally only time can answer this. But just to make you give
it all a thought. Does it have the potential to be long term ?)
4. Are you prepared for the experience that sometime in the
future (near or far) The Keeper might allow someone else to make
and replace/ alter your contribution ?
5. Can you handle a "no" from the Admin ?
Suna told me once, and I quote: "You wouldn't believe how some
people react when they realize their ideas won't make it into
the module".
6. If you do submit something, remember that it becomes part of
the "property" of Kissmet for the Admins/Dev Team to do as they
like. Keeping the vision of Kissmet, not everything goes in and
not everything goes in where you might like it, but we will try
to accomodate your suggestions. (added November 5, 2013)

9. History and Lore
Since Kissmet started out as a social server most of its story
are more OOCly based and personal to players, then there is
actually any ICly history recorded. Only a rare few areas really
have a history attached to them, though this might not count for
the entire community of players. Perhaps the most single
important lore to keep in mind though is that Kissmet is
supposed to have been built by vampires. This is OOC fact, but
should be considered merely vague rumors when IC.
Regardless of what you might find out OOCly, make sure not to
use it in any form of metagaming when you roleplay.
Banner in OOC Welcome area:
Kissmet Storyline -- short version
Kinky Kingdom - Kissmet in terms of the D&D game is a pocket
plane. Comprised of several terrain types compacted into an
overall small world.
Created by ancient vampire clans to build an army and return to
the Prime material for conquest. Over time the vampires fell to
bickering, split into smaller clans that have since been drawn
back together.
The plane has since been discovered by other races bent on
conquest.
Planar gates allow entry from several other planes small and
large. The Mists and Abbadon being the best known. The ancient
palace where the slaad attempt entry is another and even the
Underdark with a few Mind Flayers may have a hidden portal.
The Kingdom, then infested by humanoid races, forced the
vampires into hiding although still in powerful positions within
the realm. Once the humanoid races became numerous, they turned
on removing the lesser races such as Goblins, Orcs, Lycan, and
Gnolls etc. who in turn began to war on Kissmet city.
The undead Lord Fael wants to return to the surface and rule,
sending a few zombies as lookouts into the city sewers. A few
lesser vampires kill citizens foolish enough to enter a part of
the sewers and send the resulting bodies off to join the Army of
Darkness. Those that pass will find the trick/trap that may add
them to the undead army as well. There is a coven of women
vampires upset with the patriarchal rule of Fael hidden,
plotting for themselves. Other splinters of the past include
Castle Gray and the far western crypts.
(note: the entry from Southport is a one-way passage intended to
allow higher levels access to the stronger levels of undead
without interfering with mid-levels access to the easier levels)
The Orcs have infested part of the city sewers for surveillance
toward a future attack from their fort.
The goblins have enlisted a couple dragons to help with their
plans, although, the dragons are content to be worshiped.
The Illithids have two points of entry, one in the city sewers
through some broken caverns from the underdark with enslaved
driders and the other in the deep forest to the city's east
where they are transforming simple creatures into fearsome
monsters.
There are many places where the critters seem to have no reason
for being but get over it... it's all fantasy !!
