Not a volcano!
« on: April 28, 2009, 05:30:12 pm »
The thing players call a volcano, or the volcano, is NOT in fact a volcano, it is a crater.

Please refer to it as such.

It is not now, nor has it ever been a volcano.

We will have some volcanoes later, but that ain't one.

That is Shindrok's Crater- It's important that it be remembered as such for later when I release more story on it.

Thanks for the clearification. From this moment forward I will refer to the Crater as "Shindrok's Crater". :)

You should put a sign there on EZ-PC called NOT a Volcano.

I've never actually been to the crater/cano

It's been on my to-do list for ages, but I never get around to actually finding out where it is :P
There is an alternative, more probable theory that 9/11 was in fact caused by Hanson's 1997 smash hit 'MMMBop.'

I have to call it a volcano to stay IC since that's what my character has always heard it referred as.

I don't believe people mean it's an actual volcano, only that it has the shape to be one... and might be one, although obviously inactive.

How can our characters know for sure that it isn't a volcano?  This seems like OOC knowledge.

Our characters would have no experience of volcanos. A volcano and a stalactite do not work together as concepts.

Our characters don't have experience with meteors either, but there's a glyph named meteor.

The problem is: it looks like a volcano.
There is indeed a crater inside, but the cone is volcano-like.
And you won't see any crater until you climb to the top.
In fact, is it important what we call it ? Or are you just announcing some new book to be released in the library ?
