Profiles and EPIX
Rank and profile cards, the design shop where members restyle their own cards, and the EPIX wallet with transfers.
Every member has two cards. The rank card shows where they stand in one server; the profile card shows their standing across every server Epix is in. Members restyle their own cards with fonts, colors and backgrounds, some of them bought with EPIX, the currency members earn by winning Activities and can send to each other.
The rank card
/rank [user]/rank draws three rings, one per kind of activity, each with its own level and progress to the next. Voice and text come from your XP in this server. Gaming comes from your points on this server's word-games board. Above the rings are your position in the server and your streak. Because each ring keeps its own level, the card shows whether someone is a voice regular, a chatter or a player, which a single blended number cannot.
The profile card
/profile [user]- Your global level and progress to the next one, with your rank among everyone on Epix.
- Your current global streak, with a TOP #n GLOBAL badge once you are ranked.
- Your EPIX balance.
- Your games ranking and games level, from the global word-games board, with your total wins.
The profile card belongs to the member alone, so it never takes on a server's look. If the card renderer is busy, both commands answer in plain text instead of failing.
Restyling your cards
A card is a glass panel over a background. You choose the font and color your name is drawn in, the background behind the glass, and how frosted the glass is. Leave the card option empty to change all your cards at once, or name one: profile, server streak, global streak or game cards. /design show draws a preview with your current choices.

/design color mode:linear2 color1:#ffd36e color2:#ff7ab8 angle:45

/design show| What | Choices |
|---|---|
| Font | 148 font families, 29 of them with Arabic letters. Regular (400) or bold (700). A font without Arabic letters cannot draw an Arabic name, so the card keeps its default face for it, and Epix says so when you pick it. |
| Color | A solid color, or a 2- or 3-color gradient at any angle (0 runs left to right). Free for everyone. |
| Background | 15 backgrounds: Midnight, Aurora, Ember, Slate, Violet, Rose, Ocean, Sand, Forest, Monochrome, Nebula, Sunset, Cyber, Gold and Ice. |
| Glass | Full, half or light frosting. |
/font, /color and /background do the same job one card at a time, for example /font set surface:profile font:cairo for your name on the profile card only, or /background card:profile background:ocean. /design library saves the item you have equipped to a shelf so you can find it again, up to 50 per shelf.
Members with Manage Server can add scope:This server to set the default look for the cards drawn in their server, such as the server streak card and game cards. A member's own choice always wins over the server's default.
The design shop

/design shop kind:font tier:featured
/design buy kind:font item:<name>- Core and standard items can be used without buying them. Buying matters for featured items.
- A featured item works for anyone in a server with Premium. Buy it and it is yours permanently: it keeps drawing on your cards in servers without Premium, and after a server's Premium ends.
- A purchase charges first and adds the item second. If adding it fails, the charge is reversed, and pressing buy twice by accident only charges once.
- The Discord commands only equip a featured item in a server with Premium. To wear one you bought elsewhere, equip it from My Design on the dashboard.
- The dashboard has the same shop under your account: My Design, Fonts, Square Backgrounds and Banner Backgrounds.
- Setting a color never requires buying one.
Premium for servers
- Featured fonts and backgrounds for every member in the server.
- The server's own fonts:
/design uploadtakes a .ttf or .otf file up to 5 MB, in two slots, for use on the server's cards. - The server's own background pictures:
/backgroundwith an image, or/games backgroundfor game cards, takes a PNG, JPG or WebP up to 8 MB.
Uploads need Manage Server, and /games background needs Administrator. If a server's Premium ends, featured items and uploads stop drawing on its cards, and start again when it returns; items members bought keep working.
The EPIX wallet
EPIX is one wallet per member, shared across every server, so a server cannot switch it off. Members earn it by winning Activities and receive it from each other. It is spent in the design shop and on chess piece sets.

/epix balance [user]
/epix pay user:@member amount:2.5m reason:prize
/epix security| Transfer rule | Value |
|---|---|
| Amounts | Whole coins: 500, 5k, 2.5m, 1b, all, half or 50%. Arabic digits and كل, نص, ك, م, ب work too |
| Smallest transfer | 1 EPIX |
| Tax | 5%, rounded up, on transfers above 10 EPIX. The recipient gets the amount minus the tax, and the tax is removed from circulation rather than paid to anyone |
| Rate | 20 transfers per member in any rolling hour |
| Recipient | Any Discord account that is not a bot; they do not need to share your server |
The channel gets a receipt, and the recipient gets a private copy by DM with your reason, if their DMs are open.
Protecting transfers
/epix security makes every outgoing transfer ask for a second check before any coins move. It is off until you turn it on.
| Method | How it works |
|---|---|
| PIN | 4 to 8 digits, typed twice when you set it. Repeated digits and straight runs such as 1234 are refused. |
| Authenticator app | Add the key Epix gives you to an app such as Google Authenticator or Authy, then enter its 6-digit code. |
| Email code | A 6-digit code sent to an address you verify. |
- Turning a method on gives you 8 single-use recovery codes, shown once. Each works in place of your usual code.
- A transfer waiting for a code expires after 5 minutes and allows 3 tries. Five wrong answers in a row lock verification for 15 minutes; nothing moves in the meantime.
- Turning protection off needs the code you are removing.
- !epix security sends the panel to your DMs, so your settings are never shown in a public channel.
Troubleshooting
- A font or background is refused as Premium Style: it is featured. Use it in a server with Premium, or buy it.
- "Changing the server's design needs Manage Server": scope:This server is for staff; leave it out to change your own cards.
- "You have transferred too many times this hour": wait for the rolling hour to clear.
- A transfer may or may not have gone through: check !epix before sending again.
- An Arabic name is drawn in the default face: the chosen font has no Arabic letters. Filter the list with
/font list filter:arabic.
