&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Custom logphrases&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; replace the standard logphrase message set for when a character logs on or off of the game.  Logphrases are enabled by default.  If turned off, they must be enabled via {{boldmono|[[Verb:FLAGS|FLAG]]}} or {{boldmono|[[Verb:SET|SET]] LogPhrase ON}} in order for custom logphrases to be visible.  Pre-written logphrase customizations are available at various [[festival]]s, [[pay event]]s, and at [[Bayview Villa]] on [[Mist Harbor]].  Fully custom logphrases are a [[delayed service]] when the player is writing their own.  A character can only have one logphrase message set.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;section begin=custom /&amp;gt;Logphrase message sets consists of four total messages:&lt;br /&gt;
# Story window arrival&lt;br /&gt;
# Story window departure&lt;br /&gt;
# Dialog window arrival&lt;br /&gt;
# Dialog window departure&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Story window arrival and departure messages must be something that makes sense and is possible for the character to do.  They message the room a character is in when they log on or off and thus must be entirely in character.  In contrast, the dialog window can push the IC boundaries a bit.  The dialog window message always begins with an asterisk (&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;*&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Examples of logphrase customizations include the following sets from options available at [[Rumor Woods]]:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;pre{{log2}}&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Story window arrival: Person wanders in, bowing with a flourish and mocking grin to an unseen crowd.&lt;br /&gt;
Story window departure: Person bows with a flourish and departs.&lt;br /&gt;
 * Raucous catcalls let you know that Person has arrived.&lt;br /&gt;
 * Raucous catcalls let you know that Person has departed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Story window arrival: Whirring and clanking noises precede the arrival of Person.&lt;br /&gt;
Story window departure: Person wanders off in a cacophony of whirring and clanking.&lt;br /&gt;
 * Person arrives, followed by an army of whirring and clanking automatons.&lt;br /&gt;
 * An army of whirring and clanking automatons escort Person away.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Story window arrival: Distant, predatory howls are a precursor to Person&amp;#039;s arrival.&lt;br /&gt;
Story window departure: As Person leaves, feral wails sound off in the distance.&lt;br /&gt;
 * A chorus of distant howls marks the arrival of Person.&lt;br /&gt;
 * A chorus of feral wails signals the departure of Person.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Story window arrival: Person meanders in, nose in a book. With a start, she becomes aware of her surroundings and quickly puts the book away.&lt;br /&gt;
Story window departure: Person glances around, then pulls a book out and begins to read even as she wanders away.&lt;br /&gt;
 * Person has left her library and joined the rest of the world!&lt;br /&gt;
 * Person wanders off to take solace in her library.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Story window arrival: A pair of knitting needles drops to the ground as Person arrives. Muttering to herself, she quickly picks them up and stows them away.&lt;br /&gt;
Story window departure: As Person leaves, she pulls out a pair of knitting needles.&lt;br /&gt;
 * Person has reluctantly put away her knitting and left her crafter&amp;#039;s haven behind to join the masses!&lt;br /&gt;
 * Person cheerfully wanders off, knitting in hand, to rejoin her crafter&amp;#039;s haven.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
