How can I stop receiving emails?

If you go to the topic you don't want to be notified of just go to the bottom of the page look on the bottom right under the page numbers and click stop watching this topic.

Ok, thanks for replying! Can we start our own if we'd like just for like a few campers or something?

I don't think so. Again, sorry.

[Guest]

Ok, quick question. I was claimed by Iris, and she gave me a bracelet that turns into a shield. Do I make up what the design on the shield is? If there is, for example, a rainbow on the shield??

Thank you so much!!

[Guest]

If no picture was included of the shield you can make your own design, so to speak.

[Guest]

Okay, Half Blood Hill. I have YET ANOTHER question for you guys.

I honestly only just thought of this, because I was thinking to myself what I doubted was allowed in the making of weapons (I tend to debate with myself on that when offline, being Cabin 9), and figured making a weapon like Backbiter is not allowed, but then I had that this idea pop into my head. Say I was to make a wrist blade weapon. Go ahead, Google what I'm talking about, along with Diablo 2's Assasin character class, while you're at it, so you can get a clear(er) picture. Now, take the ones that resemble Wolverine's claws rather well, with the three blades. Is it possible to make a single weapon with multiple metals ((like, say, Imperial Gold, Celestial Bronze, Stygian Iron and Mortal Steel. Depends on the requestee's preferred combination)), if I was to have one metal for each blade? I'm not talking fusing the three metals into one blade like Luke's sword Backbiter, I mean each of the three blades are each made from a different metal, and then are merely placed onto the same... whatever it is that you call the thing on the wrist that actually holds the blades in place, like, one IG blade, one CB blade, and one SI blade. Is this allowed? Now, if there are only certain combos allowed, like, say, no IG CB combos, or, SI and CB are for Greek Underworld charries only while IG and SI are for Roman Underworld charries, or no MS at all, just specify that. If the combinations aren't allowed at all, I'm (mostly) cool (mostly because I thought of a plot idea involving this idea and some symbolism and stuffs) and before you ask concerning the wrist blades, no, unlike Wolverine's claws, they don't retract. These are the ordinary wrist blades. Well, as ordinary as weapons made with godly weapons can get, but they have no magic properties beyond those any blade of a particular metal ((Stygian Iron drinks monster essence, Imperial Gold explodes when broken, et cetera))

And on another note, while we're talking about it, are weapons made like Backbiter allowed as well? No, I honestly don't expect a yes here on this the second question, but I thought I may as well ask the question while we're on the subject.

And as a final note, thanks for answering my question, and sorry if question one was rather rambley. This is what happens when I think of a question while I'm offline, and feel the need to write it down lest I forget it.

Sorry if this is rude, but I never did get a yes or no or any kind of answer here.

Any specialized weapon must be approved by a Staff Member. And even then there's SLIM chance it will be approved.

So my verdict is a no.

[Guest]

So, I know there's no such thing as a stupid question, but it still feels dumb.

if a charrie is old enough, is it possible for them to get a job in Mannie so that they can be on both sides of the border? and if so, how old do they need to be?

-merely curious-

[Guest]

I don't think any demigod is able to leave camp for any reason once the demigods have left to go to school. You'd probably have to get staff approval for that kind of plot, and i don't see that very promising.

just my thoughts. PM a mod if you want a quicker reply.

[Elijah Emmanual-Wheelan]

Yar. It's not too likely that any demi could bounce between Mannie and upstate easily (there's at least 3-4 hours there, from the tip top point of the city to the lowest end of upstate). Add in the location of the job and the location of CHB, you'd be looking at a good 5-8ish hours there (I'm estimating here...and let's not even get into technicalities like traffic issues and stuff, yeah?)

I'm going to say that if we're looking at this realistically, it's a no.

[Guest]

Are there any particular restrictions or limitations on where Roman characters can post? It's been a while since I've used my Roman character, and I'm curious if anything has changed on this since I left.

[Elijah Emmanual-Wheelan]

Romans are quite merrily free, these days! Have fun exploring!

[Guest]

Cool; thanks for the help!

[Guest]

Do we do the clay beads for the end of the summer at Camp Half-Blood since the Romans still get the SPQR tattoo?

[Guest]

I can answer this for you! Okay, so, in a word: Yes. We're all-canon up until the end of PJO, so the beads are still A Thing. There aren't any 'official' bead designs for each year (yet?), though, so making them personal to your character would probably be your best bet at the moment.

Question about the PM inbox. My inbox is currently only 88% full and I keep getting e-mails saying that I got a PM yet none will show up for me, Help?

[Guest]

Sounds like a forumotion issue, not an HBH one.

[Guest]

Okay thank you, I just wanted to make sure. I'll try to click on the "free forum support" link on the bottom and go from there...

[Wyatt Walton]

I had a question about changing my character's description. When I wrote my charecter he was about 14 and since then he has gotten older and I would think taller. But when I go to change his description for some reason I can't edit it. I wanted to at least change his height to 5 foot 10 inches. How do I go about making these changes?

[Elijah Emmanual-Wheelan]

Wyatt, staff will have to make the edits for you! If you send the edited descriptions to one of us, we can fix it up for you! Make any edits necessary and feel free to send them my way (or anyone else's, but I think my life is the least hectic at the moment)!

[Guest]

I was looking through the threads and then my whole screen zoomed out and I don't know how to zoom it back in

[Guest]

which browser do you use?

ctrl and +/- usually zooms in or out. you'll want to hold crtl and press -

[Guest]

Are you on a laptop or desktop?

On a laptop you should be able to use your thumb and pointer finger on your trackpad to zoom in out. Pinch to zoom in, push out to zoom out.

[Guest]

Firefox and than Graig it worked!

[Guest]

that's only for newer laptops. my method is universal (for PC)

for a mac, you'd hold Command (apple key or weird squiggly thing) and then press -
