[Sorry, he's not going to put his "name" to something like this.

What does it mean? Who gave it to you? Would you change it if you could, and if you would what would it be?
I'm doing some research on names and why humans get so attached to them or don't.

Ah, hello! You'll have to forgive me if this is a little rough, I'm afraid I'm still a bit new to all this.
So, I've been here about a month now, and I couldn't help but notice how the base technology here far differs from that of my home in Tyria...or parts of it, anyway. That being said, I've also noticed bits and pieces here and there that seem to have completely different origins. Since nigh everyone here comes from somewhere else, and curiosity blooms better when fed, I figured I'd go ahead and ask anyone willing to share.
What is the mechanics and technology from your homes like? Your transportation, or magitech, or even your weapons. If you've any examples on hand, I'd love to see them for myself! I'd be willing to do the same, to make it a fair exchange.
Also, if anybody happens to know where you can get spare mechanical parts, I'd appreciate that as well. No pressure, of course!

i understand there have been some efforts to manipulate or control how long one remains in this realm, with a focus on anchoring oneself here permanently.
i had wondered if anyone had looked into a method by which one might retain their memories of this place even upon their waking? if not, i'd like to ask for suggestions on where one might start investigating this matter.
any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Subject: Healing Magic Lessons Starting November 26th
Good evening. I previously sent an enquiry regarding how to learn healing magic. I am pleased to announce that a method of utilizing dreamotion to cast healing magic has been devised, and that it can be learned by anyone regardless of origin or prior knowledge.
The ability to mend wounds and cleanse poisons is a valuable skill that can help us prepare for unexpected events. Dreamotion is an ubiquitous source of energy that can be tapped by any dreamwalker in this world. Everyone has the potential to cast healing magic using their own dreamotion as a magical source. However, not all of us are familiar with the nature of magic, or do not know how to channel it without prior experience. I have collated a variety of casting implements, processes, and advice from many magic users in our community. Practicing these techniques or using these items will aid in directing the flow of one's dreamotion to manifest as a tangible healing effect.
I will be hosting sessions every Saturday afternoon from 2pm to 6pm at the Music Studio for anyone keen on trying out these spellcasting aids. Any advice, constructive suggestions, and helping hands to host the lessons are also welcome. Please feel free to drop by. Refreshments will be provided.
Thank you for your perusal, and I wish all a pleasant night.
Phantom
[ OOC: The lessons focus on helping people focus their dreamotion and feelings towards producing curative effects! This can be through items like wands or books, through reading spell incantations, or through mental exercises that help the person think about positive feelings or wishes. Examples of all three will be provided at the lessons! Characters can come by to try out the various methods, or just to hang out.
The weekly lessons will be handwaved, so you can have your character pick up some basic wound healing or poison removing spells or skills through these classes. Characters who want to teach or contribute lesson materials are super welcome too!
Feel free to contact me via PM or on plurk ![[plurk.com profile]](https://plurk.com/favicon.ico) albumen for any clarification or plotting. ]

Good evening. I write to ask if there are any amongst us dreamwalkers who may be able and willing to teach the healing arts.
The ability to mend wounds and cleanse poisons is a valuable skill that can help us prepare for unexpected events. Owing to the varied forms of dreamwalkers, I believe that magic would be more effective, as well as more accessible, whether drawing from magical aptitude or from our own dreamotion energies.
Please let me know if you are interested in teaching. I can offer some compensation for your time. I also encourage fellow prospective students to write in, I shall keep you apprised of any developments.
Thank you for your perusal, and I wish all a pleasant sunset.

Hello everyone! My name is Thoma! Nice to meet you! ▽･ｪ･▽ﾉ”
(That’s a dog.)
I was just thinking that there are a lot of us here who might be new to living alone or managing things around the house and I wanted to help out. I’m a housekeeper back home, and my duties include cooking, cleaning, mending, laundry, and a few things in-between. These are all valuable skills to have in everyday life!
Usually, I am happy to help where I can, but realistically I can’t clean every house in all of Reverein, so I would like to teach the basics of housekeeping instead. Please let me know if you’re interested and I will schedule some classes! ♡(ᐢ ᴥ ᐢし)
(That’s another dog.)
Oh, I also knit so if you want to learn how to do that, I can help there too!
Thanks for reading. Take care everyone!

Subject: Sign Language and Medical/First Aid learning
Good afternoon everyone! My name is Shigeru Miyata and I've been wondering since I got here about a few things. I know there are a few of us here that can't speak...so we're mute, and for us communicating is harder than normal as you can imagine. The dreamotion does make it a bit easier but I know for myself that sign language is my preferred means of communicating.
I want to know if...people would be willing to take some classes and learn sign language from me? And I guess while I'm at it, I'd also like to extend the offer to teach people first aid and medical training. Since I'm not sure if there are any other doctors or medically trained personnel around. If there are please don't hesitate to come to talk to me! I was thinking of opening up a clinic of some kind in the future and would love to have people help out if at all possible.
With all that said I hope everyone is having a nice day and I look forward to hearing from people!
Thank you for taking the time to read this! (❁´▽`❁)*✲ﾟ*

It would appear that I have been indisposed, though that seems to have been rectified. If for any reason, you have been seeking me, I can now properly attend to matters that were not appropriately handled before said indisposition.
That said, please refrain from entering my personal space and leaving books, regardless of the quality of reading material. Furthermore, please refrain from entering my personal space, period.
I had, prior to my temporary condition, been discussing how to better provide a defence for the town proper. As more dream walkers find themselves in this world, not only do we grow in population count, we also grow in the evolution of the town. The market, beings who are not exactly dream walkers like ourselves, yet present all the same, farming land, the coliseum in disrepair, and our other outskirts.
I would like to know if it is possible to create a defensive ward to otherwise protect Reverein citizens from potential outside threats by use of dreamotion in the establishment of wards. If we are capable of creating such things, it may also be possible to recycle or supply a consistent and constant flow of dreamotion in an effort to power said wards or barriers.
For some time, I have contemplated the ability to, for lack of a better term, 'bottle' dreamotion for later usage. If you have any experience in such matters, I implore you to share your results.

I am curious. How many among us have taken on a different form while in the dreamscape? Beyond the costumes we have been given to blend it.
I ask, as during the festival last month, I took part in the Storybook game, and upon entering the story, took on a different form.
Is there an intention to it? Or does it just happen? And if the former, how would one practice?

Hello there! It appears that this world is entering its Spring Solstice and with such a season brings new life and new flowers to everything the sun touches! I'd like to share with you a tradition during this time of year from my homeland, the beautiful and free city of Mondstadt. And that is the Windblume festival.
During this time of year, many will offer flowers in tribute to the god of freedom! Yet, what is more important is the tradition of gifting flowers to those you love and hold dear. The choice of flowers can say a lot about a person's feelings! When gifting precious flowers to those you love and adore the carefully picked flower should be one that means something to you and that precious relationship.
While this time of year doesn't necessarily have to mean these gestures are romantic there is another tradition of sending your most adored one a love poem. A perfect time to be confessing your heart's song to the one who holds your heart! Ehe, isn't that lovely?
I, as a travelling bard, have spent many years seeing the Windblume season! And with it, I have written hundreds of poems and know exactly how to weave love's verse. I would like to offer my assistance in helping you find the words to write your own love letter or poem to the one you hold dear or wish to confess to! Do tell me all about the one you hold in your heart and allow me to help you craft the words to express your heart's feelings.
Please, it would be my pleasure![Spill the tea on your love lives and in return Venti will help you confess in a love letter! Come on, get spilling! He loves the gossip!]
