The Inflict potions are all scripted custom for EfU. That scripting is not currently compatible with Arcane Mimicry, alas.

Done.

I recently introduced someone to EfU who has never played NWN, DnD or roleplayed before in his life but he took to it pretty well. I found it was important to play with him as much as I could and show him the ropes of roleplay, as well as communicate with him OOC about the various nuances and courtesies of the server. Helping out with mechanical stuff is important too, as dying non-stop is kind of OK when you are brand new but swiftly starts to suck.

Just after nightfall of Hammer 22nd, the small lighthouse off Sis Liman sent back word that ships were spotted in the middle distance. Upon coming closer, the worst fears of certain exile merchants inhabiting the trading post were confirmed -- these ships were not the usual merchantmen expected to anchor off Sis Liman for trade, for merchantmen do not hoist sails of ruby-red...

Only an hour or so after their arrival, Comital militiamen -- said to be roughly the same calibre of scum as the last set of "Ruby" Mamertines -- have occupied the port, naval vessels blockading it and controlling the flow of maritime traffic with unwavering strictness. How the Count might be planning to utilise this control over Ymphian waters is anyone's guess, though one enterprising officer was heard to remark aboard the  that escape from the Isle should surely be a "valuable commodity for any poor withered wretch".

Nonetheless, a crude notice has been posted outside Sis Liman - "WITHERED KEEP OUT" - with a putrid green dwarven corpse forked up alongside, presumably to give the warning weight. The first twelve hours of Comital occupation are reportedly baptized with blood, a woman associated with the Order reported to have been cut down by Comital troops for defending a lightly Withered man who lingered too long near the Comital checkpoint -- most importantly, without paying his dues...

Without this they are pretty ridiculously weak.

Definitely not.

Also keep in mind that game mechanics can be a limitation, if a familiar is right next to someone, it might in fact be perched upon their shoulder or it could be flying out of melee ranged if it is airborne and other such things. Of course the PC controlling it can and should emote such limitations as well, but again this relies on someone not charging the thing to death immediately on sight.

To clarify on this, 99% of EfU follows the rule of What You See Is What You Get. If a familiar is in melee range of you, it's in melee range of you regardless of emotes.

If a war is started in Saudi Arabia, guess who will be dying for the cause? Not the women. The law is there so women are safer. It is there to protect them.

Hot damn I wish somebody would protect me against driving a car or going outside, I mean obviously the full-body hijab is just to ward off the scorching sun!!!

LOL

You did the oxen escort quest. If you fail the quest (as you did with the oxen dying right outside of Mistlocke), you don't get any reward. I don't see the substance of your complaint. Furthermore, if the oxen die, the quest is -scripted- such that it is impossible for you to receive a reward. We generally don't intervene in situations such as this.
