What Can Greywind Bot Do?

Greywind Bot is a fun and interactive bot designed to enhance your Discord server experience with a range of commands, responses, and scheduled reminders. Here’s what the bot is capable of:

Slash Commands

• /trivia: Play trivia with friends. The bot keeps track of scores and even has a guild-specific leaderboard.
• /8ball [question]: Ask the Magic 8-Ball a question and get a mysterious answer.
• /catfact: Receive a random cat fact for your entertainment.
• /flip: Flip a virtual coin.
• /roll [sides=6] [number_of_dice=1]: Roll a die or multiple dice. Perfect for games and decisions!
• /darkjoke: Get a reflective (non-evil) dark-themed joke.
• /reminder [time] [message]: Set a reminder that the bot will notify you of at a specific time. Perfect for remembering special events, or anything else.

Message Responses

Greywind Bot can recognize certain keywords or phrases. For instance, if you message the bot directly with “I’m bored” or “feeling down,” it might offer a fun suggestion or a motivational quote.

Say “trivia” to start a trivia game or ask, “who’s winning?” to see the current leaderboard.

Other Easter eggs and special responses exist. Test it out to find hidden responses!
