A player who stops tending their adventurer doesn't stop having one. After
24h with no action against Adventure, the character gets restless and leaves
on an expedition by itself: the easiest zone its level band allows, the
cheapest supplies it can afford, and whatever gear was already on the rack.
Everything downstream of the start was already autonomous — the autopilot
walks rooms, drives elite and boss fights on the turn engine, camps, harvests
and picks forks. The only thing that ever needed a human was `!expedition
start`, so that's all this adds: a 30m ticker plus a clock.
It never buys or equips anything, and that is the whole mechanic: a neglected
adventurer grinds half-starved runs on rusting gear and comes home taxed. The
prodexercise killed an L4 mage four rooms in on its first run.
The clock is a new column. Every existing timestamp is unusable: last_active_at
is auto-bumped by saveAdvCharacter (the autopilot would refresh a bored
character's own idle clock), loadAdvDailyActivity counts the autopilot's own
expedition logs, and user_stats.updated_at is chat presence, not a game action.
last_player_action_at is written only by markPlayerAction, from a real player
action against Adventure — any interface, not just Matrix.
Raid zones (raidContentWarning: the party-tuned T5 bosses with a 0% solo clear)
are avoided while anything else is in band. At L13+ they're all that's left, and
the adventurer goes in anyway and loses. That's intended.
dnd_expedition.boredom + isBoredomDriven stop a run nobody asked for from
shielding an absent player from the idle reaper or holding their streak. A
manually-started expedition still holds it while the autopilot walks it.
Robbie visits and pays silently for idle players — he was going to file a daily
public bulletin about people who stopped playing weeks ago.
Note for anyone touching the time-scanning queries here: modernc.org/sqlite
rebuilds a time.Time from the column's declared type, and COALESCE()/MAX() erase
it. playerIsIdle fails open, so a broken scan there declares the whole server
idle. Both it and lastExpeditionByZone select declared columns and fold in Go,
and the tests seed real rows so the scan actually executes.
Five correctness fixes from a code review of the N5 branch:
- Robbie no longer sweeps/sells cross-zone keys (Type "key"), which
permanently broke the vault unlock they exist to open.
- Robbie's gift tier now reads the canonical DnD level, not the frozen
legacy CombatLevel that pegged every gift at tier 1.
- Boss epilogue (D1b) now fires on the compact autopilot boss resolve —
the primary long-expedition path — not just manual !fight. Deduped the
two manual sites into a shared writeBossEpilogue helper.
- Finale reward latches epilogue_cleared before granting the Legendary +
title, so a failed/late write can't make the reward repeatable.
- Misty arc beat's occupied-slot guard moved above the counter increment,
so a contended pending slot defers the encounter instead of consuming a
5/15/30 beat forever.

Three flavor arcs on existing per-player counters (no schema, golden
byte-identical):
- Misty: 3 deepening dialogue beats at MistyEncounterCount 5/15/30,
prepended to the encounter opening the one time the counter lands on a
threshold. Fiction only — no copy ties a donation to the hidden arena
effects.
- Robbie: every 10th visit he leaves a consumable "for the trouble,"
drawn from the dungeon pool at a level-matched tier.
- Thom: paying off the Tier-4 mortgage (no next tier) sends a final
letter instead of the stock payoff line, plus an inert pet-treat
keepsake if the player keeps a pet.

Swap all char.DisplayName / c.DisplayName reader sites in
internal/plugin/ to loadDisplayName(userID). Touches 12 files
across combat (combat_bridge, dnd_zone_combat, dnd_zone_cmd,
dnd_expedition_combat), arena, hospital, events, render,
masterwork, robbie, scheduler, and adventure.go.
Only intentional char.DisplayName references remaining are in
adventure_character.go (scan + save + dual-write) and the
player_meta.go doc comment. go vet + go test ./internal/plugin/...
clean.
Unblocks deferred L2 step 9 (arena AdvCharacter import drop)
once L4 hospital/pets/render also lands.

High-priority fixes from the multi-agent audit of Adventure 2.0:
- Phase 11 nil-deref cluster: zoneOrFallback() helper replaces 8 unsafe
getZone(_) sites in dnd_zone_cmd.go. Corrupted zone IDs render a
placeholder instead of panicking.
- Briefing/recap idempotency: deliverBriefing/deliverRecap now claim
the rollover via a conditional UPDATE. Double-fires from clock skew
or restart become no-ops; supply burn and day++ no longer reapply.
- Graceful ticker shutdown: AdventurePlugin gains stopCh + Stop(); all
11 background tickers now select on stopCh in addition to ticker.C.
- Mood decay (§3.2): math.Round(elapsed*2) replaces int() truncation
so sub-hour gaps decay correctly.
- 24h auto-abandon (§4.3): getActiveZoneRun returns clean slate and
abandons stale runs whose LastActionAt is over 24h old.
- Respec / auto-migrate orphan cleanup: !respec and the auto-migrated
draft wipe now abandon active zone runs and expeditions before
deleting the dnd_character row.
- Phase R combat-link: applyBossDefeatThreat now wired from
resolveBossRoom (-20 threat); applyRoomCombatThreatForUser adds
+5/+8 from non-boss/elite kills (§8.1).
- Starvation → forced extraction: briefing-time check forces extract
with §10.2 coin tax when supplies hit zero.
- GMNat20/Nat1 narration wired into resolveCombatRoom and
resolveBossRoom (nat-20 takes precedence over nat-1).
- Treasure-undo race: LoadAndDelete on both timer-fire and `undo`
paths so only one side wins.
- Battle Master: Disarming, Menacing, Parry maneuvers added (3 → 6
of 10). Remaining 4 (Pushing, Goading, Riposte, Commander's Strike)
documented inline as needing ally/reaction mechanics the engine
doesn't model.
- Threat-70 warning: tracked in RegionState["siege_warning_fired"]
so a drop-and-recross doesn't re-fire the beat.
- region_state JSON decode error now logged via slog.Warn instead
of silently discarded.
Failing TestProdDB_DnDLayer fixed via option (a): track migrated
characters and only run round-trip / idempotency assertions on those,
skipping pre-existing prod-DB rows accumulated from live bot use.
New tests in dnd_audit_phase_R7_test.go cover: 24h auto-abandon,
briefing double-fire idempotency, threat-70 warning idempotency,
multi-region extract→resume state preservation, and starvation
forced-extraction.

Consumables (auto-crafted from foraged ingredients or dropped from T2+
activities) are a curated stockpile — selling them should be an explicit
choice, not a side effect.
Two surfaces tightened:
- Robbie's qualifying-items filter now skips Type == "consumable" the
same way it skips Arena gear and cards.
- !adventure sell all leaves consumables in inventory and reports them
in the kept-items tally. The merchant message points players at
!adventure sell <name> for explicit consumable sales.
!adventure sell <name> still works fine on consumables — that path is
already explicit by definition.

Misty & Arina: random encounter NPCs triggered by chat message counting
(5-10 msg threshold, 7-day cooldown, 7.5% roll). Misty asks for €100 —
accept gives 7-day arena buff (20% gourmet food heals gear + 5 enemy dmg),
decline gives 7-day debuff (20% crowd revenge damage). Arina asks for €5000 —
accept gives 7-day sniper buff (8% instant kill in arena). Effects integrate
into arena round resolution after combat roll; sniper overrides death.
Other fixes:
- Tier gating now uses base skill only — buffs improve success, not access
- Babysitter uses all harvest actions (3/day, 4 on holidays) instead of 1
- Robbie collects all non-equipped items, not just slotted gear
- Robbie timing: fire on first tick >= target hour, not exact minute match
- Streak: dead players who acted still get streak credit
- Streak: dead players skip shame DM (use LastDeathDate, not Alive flag)
- Midnight ticker: in-memory date cache prevents 1439 wasted DB checks/day
- T1 loot values ~3x across all activities to close T1/T2 gap

visits (8-21 UTC, 40% chance), collects sub-tier gear at €50/item,
donates to community pot, drops Get Out of Medical Debt Free card
- Fix MW auto-equip: T1 MW no longer replaces better equipped gear
- Fix shop MW block: allow purchasing upgrades over lower-tier MW
- Float64 equipment scoring: advEffectiveTier and advEquipmentScore
return float64, no mid-calculation truncation (MW 1.25x, Arena 1.5x)

across all flavor text files (shop, blacksmith, rival, hospital)
