Badges

Badges are marks on your profile for things you've done on GhoulApp: how long you've been here, how much you've played, the characters you've made. There are 40 of them in eight groups. Most come on their own once you've done the thing. A few are given by hand.

Each badge has a colour for how hard it is to get: bronze, silver, gold and the rarest a holographic finish.

Where they show

On your profile the Badges count shows three of your badges and how many you have. Choose it to open the full list. Its top line reads like "12 of 40 unlocked" and each group shows how many of its badges you've earned. Badges you don't have yet are greyed out. Esc closes the list.

Open any badge to reach its own page. It shows the badge's Rarity as the share of members who have it, the date you Earned it and its State: Earned, Hidden or Not earned. A badge you can earn more than once also shows Times. Share this badge uses your phone's share sheet when there is one. On a computer it copies the link and says "Link copied". All badges takes you back to the list.

Badges also show in a few other places. The card that opens over a member's name shows three badges and the total. Activity on your profile lists each badge you earn. You get a notification that reads "You unlocked" and the badge's name.

The three badges shown first are picked in a fixed order: membership badges first, then Patreon, Play Time, Storyteller, Characters, Systems and Community. You can't pick which ones.

Special

Two badges stay hidden until you earn them. They aren't in the full list at all until then.

If a badge is missing

Most badges are checked again each time your profile is opened. A new one usually shows the next time you look. If you had the page open it can take about a minute. A Patreon badge can take up to a day to show.

If you've hidden your social counts visitors don't see your badges. You still do. See Your profile.
