≫ WHAT'S UP WITH GATEWAY ROLEPLAY? ≪

  • We've been radio silent for a long time now. We posted an announcement in our Discord server back in April of 2025, but never updated the forums. So what's up with Gateway Roleplay?

    After 5 long years, we've decided to place the development of Ties That Bind on an indefinite hold.

    This doesn't mean it's cancelled. We fully intend to run Ties That Bind: What Lies Beneath and Ties That Bind: City of Angels eventually. But to do so, we need to take a step back. In the meantime, we'll be working on smaller, invite-only projects.

    Thank you to everyone who has stuck with us this long! MindGate and I (Pika) have been working on this server for over a decade now. It truly is a passion project for us.

Title: Milk, Sprite, and Skill Books
Character Name: John Smith

Heyo—couple of item requests:

-The three foraging field guides:
  • HCBookfungiguide
  • HCBookflowerguide
  • HCBooktreeguide
-I’ve also lost my Behemoth Milk RP item ? (I might’ve accidentally drank it, too. Character was sick seemingly at random.)

-By chance, would there be any unused npc sprites? I’ve held onto an event npc, and was hoping to turn ‘em into a follower. Totally coolio if either isn’t the case as well—and I can delete the post-it note Simone if an npc follower should be found in another way.

Thank ya kindly in advance in any regard! Wishing y’all a nice evening, and a good Sunday.

I'm cool with spawning these items in for you!

What actual item was the Behemoth Milk mechanically? I've never seen it, so I'm not sure what to give you for that.

As for the NPC, I have absolutely no problem with letting you have an NPC follower. If you want them to be the actual NPC from the event, though, that may have to go through Mind. Otherwise, they can be renamed, and John can easily have encountered them at some point. There are no issues with reusing generic NPC sprites because they are generic. Even unique sprites can be reused as long as they aren't an incredibly important NPC. Like, say, Larue Monroe.

Awesome, sounds good.

I think the Behemoth Milk was a renamed milk carton, but Lil_Bit would know for sure.

For the NPC—sounds good: and aye it was an NPC from the Season 1 finale, so Mind would likely need to approve it.

That’s awesome about an NPC follower having been encountered, too. For that, how should I go about the process? It’d likely be another woodland explorer-type, possibly a researcher assistant / non-combat based type of character.

Once Mind approves the use of the NPC, you can honestly go about it however you'd like, so long as it doesn't directly affect the lore. That'd need Mind's approval, as well. Encountering another explorer in the woods is completely fine with me!

Coolio, I'll send along a message to MG.

For the skill books and Behemoth item, I can message when we're online if that works. Or also! Dropping off the items in the cave could work--either in those makeshift bunkbed rooms or the medical/lab area--whichever seems best.
