Bot Commands

DiceBot lives in the IRC channels and responds to commands. Type these in any game channel or in a DM to the bot.

Dice Rolling

Roll a pool of d10s against a difficulty. Ones subtract successes; net negative means a botch.

Options:

• spec - Specialty mode: 10s count as 2 successes
• reason - Freeform text appended to the result

Examples:

!roll 6 6
  dorje rolls 6d10 diff 6: [8, 4, 6, 2, 9, 1] - 2 successes

!roll 5 7 spec Klaive strike
  dorje rolls 5d10 diff 7 (spec): [10, 7, 3, 5, 10] - 4 successes (Klaive strike)

!roll 3 8
  dorje rolls 3d10 diff 8: [1, 1, 3] - BOTCH! [2 ones]

Initiative

Roll 1d10 + modifier for initiative order. Your modifier is Wits + Dexterity, plus any bonuses or penalties (gifts, wound penalties, etc).

Example:

!init 7
  dorje rolls initiative: 13 (6+7)

Moon Phase

Weather

The bot fetches real weather data and generates an atmospheric prose description. Updates every 30 minutes.

Pool Spending

Spend a point from one of your pools. Requires your nick to be bound to a character (ask your ST).

Example:

!rage
  StormRunner spends 1 Rage (now 4/7)

These work in any channel or in a DM to the bot.

Description

Set a short scene description (outfit, vibe, visible details) that other players can view. Requires your nick to be bound to a character.

Examples:

!desc Leather jacket, cold stare, smells like ozone
  StormRunner set their description: Leather jacket, cold stare, smells like ozone

!look StormRunner
  Storm Runner: Leather jacket, cold stare, smells like ozone

!desc
  StormRunner cleared their description.

!look works for anyone — no binding required. You can look up a player by nick, character slug, or download token.

These work in any channel or in a DM to the bot.

Deed Names

The spirits whisper deed names freely. Check your own or look up another character's deed names in any channel or DM.

Examples:

!deednames
  Storm Runner: Wyrmbreaker, Voice of Thunder

!deednames Notch
  Notch: Shadowfoot

These work in any channel or in a DM to the bot.

Rest

End your RP day with !sleep. This bundles the end-of-day effects into one command: you earn a beat toward XP, recover Willpower and Rage, and heal. There's an 18-hour real-time cooldown between sleeps.

!meditate is a companion command that lets you restore Gnosis through meditation, once per sleep cycle.

What !sleep does

• +1 beat — When you accumulate 2 beats, they auto-convert to 1 XP
• +1 Willpower — Capped at your permanent rating
• Rage recovery - Based on the moon (new=1, waning=2, half/waxing=3, full=4). If the moon matches your auspice, rage restores to full
• Healing — All bashing and lethal damage clears, plus 1 aggravated heals
• Resets meditation — You can !meditate again after sleeping

Examples:

!sleep
  StormRunner sleeps: +1 beat, WP 6/8 → 7/8, Rage 3/7 → 4/7, healed 2B 1L

!sleep
  StormRunner sleeps: +1 XP (2 beats), WP 8/8 (full), Rage → 7/7 (auspice moon!), healthy

Meditation

Meditation rolls restore Gnosis equal to the number of successes (capped at your max). You choose your pool and difficulty, but the bot shows a suggested difficulty that escalates each time you meditate (base 8, +1 per meditation). The suggested difficulty resets every 7 sleeps.

You can only meditate once between sleeps.

Examples:

!meditate 4 8
  StormRunner meditates (suggested diff 8): 4d10 diff 8: [10, 7, 3, 9] - 2 successes -- Gnosis +2 (2/4 → 4/4)

!meditate 4 8
  You've already meditated since your last sleep.

Rest cycle in !stats

!stats shows your rest cycle and meditation status:

Rest: never slept, meditation available (diff 8)
Rest: 3/7 days, meditation available (diff 10)
Rest: 3/7 days, meditated

These work in any channel or in a DM to the bot.

Character Queries (DM Only)

Send these commands in a direct message to DiceBot. They only work if your nick is bound to a character.

Garou Forms

Check the stat modifiers for each Garou form. !form alone shows the modifier summary. !form <form> in a DM shows your character's modified stats and the form's special traits.

Forms: Homid, Glabro, Crinos, Hispo, Lupus

Examples:

!form
  Homid: no modifiers
  Glabro: Str +1, Sta +1, App -1, Man -1
  Crinos: Str +4, Dex +1, Sta +3, App 0, Man -3
  Hispo: Str +3, Dex +2, Sta +3, Man -3
  Lupus: Str +1, Dex +2, Sta +2, Man -3

!form crinos
  Storm Runner (Crinos): Str 5→9, Dex 3→4, Sta 4→7, Man 1→0, App 0
  War form. Causes Delirium in humans. Bite +1 damage.
  Claws/bite do aggravated. Diff to resist frenzy -1. No Social except Intimidation.

!form works in any channel. !form <form> with your stats requires a DM.
