This site may use a lot of technical terms you may not be familiar with, so this glossary of vocabulary might help you understand several of the hard words. They are not alphabetized.
Modding: When a Staff Member tells you what happens. Modding is how you can interact with your environment, by knowing whats in your environment. It includes controlling NPCs, nature, and judging a battle, amongst other things.
Judging: The same as modding just with battles. It's when a Staff Member tells you whether your attack hit, how strong it was, and if your enemies attack hit. Usually referred to as modding.
Staff Member: A Moderator or Administrator.
NPC: Non Playable Character. There's an entire Sub- Forum full of them. Staff Members control these.
Power Category- A thread in the Powers Library that contains different powersets.
Powerset:The 10 Level Post in a Power Category that your powers are based on.
Power: A single move learned at every level for your powerset.
PM: Private Message. A way to talk to one player privately.
