	#REDIRECT [[Gwethdesuan (obsolete)]]

			Gwethdesuans (often abbreviated as gweths) are [[Moon Mage]] [[:Category:Moon_Mage_enchantments\|enchantments]] worn upon the head that allow one to communicate telepathically in game. Essentially, wearing a gwethdesuan provides the wearer with extrasensory perception (ESP). "Gwethdesuan" is [[Gamgweth]] for "long speech."

			With the exception of certain [[Estate Holder]] [[LTB]] purchases, all gwethdesuan's have limited charges which are consumed on activation. Activation can be achieved by wearing, rubbing, or touching your gweth. Gwethdesuans can be deactivated by removing them.

			==Types of Gwethdesuans==
			You may choose between [[Item:Jadeite_gwethdesuan\|jadeite]] and [[Item:Kyanite_gwethdesuan\|kyanite]] gwethdesuans. Both types function identically. The choice is strictly cosmetic and you should only wear one gweth.

			==Channels==
			The telepathic network has a number of different channels that you can listen in on. You can find out which channels you are currently listening to using {{com\|ESP}} {{tt\|CHANNELS}}.

			{\| class="wikitable sortable"
			! Channel
			! Description
			\|-
			\|General\|\|Global channel for general chit-chat.
			\|-
			\|Trade\|\|Global channel for financial transactions.
			\|-
			\|Guild\|\|Conversations with other members of your guild.
			\|-
			\|Race\|\|Conversations with other members of your race.
			\|-
			\|Local\|\|Conversations shared among those in your nearby geographical location.
			\|-
			\|Private\|\|Conversations shared among those who have the same telepathic password.
			\|-
			\|Personal\|\|Listening for messages directed specifically toward you (with the {{com\|SEND}} command).
			\|}

			==Usage==
			# Activate your gwethdesuan or {{com\|CAST}} the [[Thoughtcast]] spell
			#* You should only wear one gweth and can choose either jadeite or kyanite
			#* Gweths can be activated using {{com\|WEAR}}, {{com\|RUB}}, or {{com\|TOUCH}}
			# Use the {{com\|ESP}} command to {{tt\|LISTEN}} to various channels (see [[Gwethdesuan#Channels]])
			#* {{com\|ESP}} {{tt\|LISTEN GENERAL}} will toggle on/off listening to the General channel
			#* {{com\|ESP}} {{tt\|CHANNELS}} will display which channels you are currently listening to
			# Set your broadcast channel using {{com\|ESP}} {{tt\|SEND GENERAL}} (or Trade, Race, etc as appropriate)
			# {{com\|THINK}} {{tt\|<message>}} to share your thought with all others listening on the broadcast channel
			#*{{com\|THINK}} will direct your thoughts to your last set ESP SEND channel

			===Private channels===
			It is possible to direct thoughts to a private group using {{com\|PROJECT}}. Note that you must first use {{com\|ESP}} {{tt\|PASSWORD <CHANNEL NAME>}} to create or join the private channel; the password is the channel name. You can check who is in your current private channel at anytime using {{com\|ESP}} {{tt\|WHO}}.

			Usage: {{com\|PROJECT}} {{tt\|<message>}}

			===Personal channel===
			It is possible to direct thoughts to a single person using {{com\|PROJECT}}. The receiving person must also have telepathy (by wearing a gwethdesuan or casting Thoughtcast) and be listening to the Personal channel to receive your message.

			Usage: {{com\|SEND}} {{tt\|<player> <message>}}

			==IC vs OOC Thoughts==
			Since [[DragonRealms]] places a greater emphasis on role-playing than many other online games, it is expected as a matter of game policy that gweth messages remain in character at all times.

			You can be {{com\|REPORT}}ed for blatant out-of-character speech over the gweth just as you may be reported for [[Out of Character\|OOC]] behavior in any other public activity within the game. Gweth thoughts that blur the line may not be an actionable violation of policy but might nonetheless draw the attention of someone with a [[Gwethdesuan_Smasher\|Gwethsmasher]].

			See [[Out of Character]] and [[OOC Euphemisms]].

			===Nonverbal Content in Thoughts===
			There is some debate about what can actually be conveyed via gwethdesuan. Purists will often limit this to words, since the actual gweth messaging is, "Your mind ''hears'' so-and-so ''thinking''." Other players, including some GMs, expand that to include other human sounds, such as laughter. However, most role-players regard attempts to convey facial expressions (such as smirking) or actions (such as hugging) as inappropriate for gwethdesuans, since you cannot hear such things.

			The safest approach is to include only text that a person would normally speak out loud. (Emoticons/emoji and netspeak are arguably OOC, not only because they are too modern, but because they are not normally included in natural speech.)

			==Creation==
			Currently, only Moon Mages can create gwethdesuans.

			=== Components ===
			*Two gweth stones of the same type, either [[jadeite]] or [[kyanite]]
			*{{ilink\|i\|Ju'ladan oil}}
			*A platinum, gold, or silver chain purchased from a jewelry shop
			*Enchanter's Burin
			*Celestial sigil of the [[Constellation-Raven\|Raven]] and either the [[Constellation-Viper\|Viper]] (kyanite) or [[Constellation-Magpie\|Magpie]] (jadeite)
			*Activating Spell: [[Shadows]], [[Dazzle]] or [[Unleash]]

			===Steps===
			#{{com\|STUDY}} [[Constellation-Raven\|Raven]]
			#{{com\|SCRIBE}} {{tt\|stone}}
			#{{tt\|STUDY}} [[Constellation-Raven\|Raven]]
			#{{tt\|SCRIBE}} {{tt\|stone}} -- a different stone of the same gweth type.
			#{{com\|COMBINE}} {{tt\|my stone with my other stone}}
			#{{com\|DIP}} {{tt\|stone in oil}}
			#{{com\|AFFIX}} {{tt\|stone to chain}}
			#Scribe, activate, and bind the <constellation> -- [[Constellation-Viper\|Viper]](need telescope) for kyanite stones. [[Constellation-Magpie\|Magpie]] for jadeite stones.

			==Notes==
			*There are some areas in the game where Gweth reception and transmission is blocked, for example inside the Crossing bank, rooms with guild leaders, or festival grounds.
			*The type of metal in the chain has no bearing on the gweth's functionality.
			*The current "ESP 2.0" system was introduced in Prime on November 11, 2016.<ref>[[Post:ESP 2.0 on 11/11/16 - 11/10/2016 - 16:41]]</ref>

			{{RefAl\|r=y\|p=y\|a=y}}
			*{{com\|ESP}} command
			*{{com\|SEND}} command
			*{{com\|PROJECT}} command
			*{{com\|THINK}} command
			*[[Gwethdesuan (obsolete)]] has information about the old ESP system.
