## Character Journals Now Live (March 29)
You can now write in-character journals on the wiki. Visit **PC > Journals** in the nav to read entries from other characters. Your journal is linked to your character sheet: open your sheet and click the **Journal** button. Journals are written in Markdown with a live preview. See the [Journal Guide](/journal-guide) for details.

## Chronicle Ticker for STs (March 29)
STs: the Storyline Dashboard has been replaced with a Chronicle Ticker, a live feed of scene activity and storyline updates. Post quick notes after running scenes with `!log` in IRC or the web form on the dashboard. Storyline actions (step completions, status changes, log entries) now automatically appear in the ticker. The Pipeline and Chapter views are still available from the nav bar.

## New Bot Commands (March 22)
**!form / !forms**: View Garou form stat modifiers. Use `!form` in any channel to see the modifier table. DM `!form crinos` (or glabro, hispo, lupus) to see your character's actual modified stats and form traits. The character sheet on the wiki also shows computed form stats now.

**!carried / !owned**: Replace the old `!gear` command. `!carried` shows what you're carrying, `!owned` shows what you own. Items are numbered so STs can manage them with `!list`. If you were using `!gear`, switch to these.

## First Server-Wide Scene
Thank you to everyone who participated in our first server-wide scene on March 21st. Hettar, Simon, Niki, Cassandra, Yasmin, Notch, and Inola-Blackfoot all took part in the mine scouting mission, with Samira, John, and Luca providing the briefing and support. Great turnout, great RP.

## News Command
Use `!news` to see announcements and events right from IRC. `!news a` for announcements, `!news e` for events, or `!news a 2` to read a specific entry.

## Moon & Weather Bots
The Moon bot (!moon) displays the current moon phase and active auspice. The Weather bot (!weather) generates atmospheric conditions for Vail, CO. Both update automatically.

## Events & Micro-Storylines
Storyline hooks are posted on the Events page. Pursue them for extra XP and rewards. Dragging other players in is encouraged.

## Weekly XP
Claim your weekly XP via the sleep and rest system. Use !sleep in any channel or DM. For details see https://deadkeys.net/wta/rest
