Intro
Aviaries and Birds is LOTC's way of long-range roleplay communication. With the use of /msg outlawed to send IRP messages now people are forced to rely on Aviaries. The plugin was developed and coded by the Tech Team on LOTC and it is an LOTC-exclusive plugin.
What is an Aviary
Aviaries are buildings where you will be able to send and receive birds. They are the only location where you will be able to do this.
How they work
Aviaries can be found in most major cities, settlements, Cloud Temple, the four directional hubs, and other various spots scattered across the map. All you have to do is go into an aviary with a Piece of paper that you can write on with the use of /notes write (message). Followed by typing /aviary send (McName/IGN), then select the persona from the list shown to you in chat. Then a bird will fly off with the letter. After a few minutes (2 to 5 mins, based on where you are on the map), the other player will receive a message saying that they have received a letter. To receive the letter, they will have to go and execute the command /aviary mail at a nearby Aviary in order to be given the letter item. Though, be careful; birds can be killed while flying away with the use of a bow or crossbow, and your note will be dropped from the dead bird and will be able to be picked up by other players.
How to get one
The PRO (Primary Region Owner, Often the Nation Leader/Settlement Leader/Lair Leader) of a Nation's Capital, Nation Subregion/Vassal, Mercenary Camp, Independent Lair, or Settlement may get an aviary. In order to do this, they must make a /modreq asking for a moderator to set one up, however, they must have the build done in advance and be able to house and send out birds.
