Questions
How do I get this bot on my server?
- Click here: https://discord.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=363100574222254091&scope=bot&permissions=537226304
Why does it say [BOT] next to my npcs and aliases?
- I use webhooks to display chat with unique avatars and messages, so it's actually the bot saying it, not you.
Will you join my game?
- Maybe? I definitely won't DM it!
Can I host it myself?
- Rod 2 is live right now, and if you want to host it yourself or modify it, you can find it here: https://github.com/UltimateBrent/discord-rod
Can I pay you for this?
- In lieu of a donation to me, maybe join or start a D&D game from our LFG section, and enjoy yourself!
