That first Jarvonia tour by Gloria Raynor's I will survive

Inspired by how hard it is to gauge how dangerous exactly it is to wander far when you have just started - thanks for the musedom, Austria!

At first I was afraid, I was petrified 
kept thinking I could never go far south 'fore I levelified 
but I spent so many nights 
looking at all the map Unknowns 
and so I packed 
and ran off there just all alone 

And now I'm back 
from Azu' streets 
talked to a bunch of weird shopkeepers 
saw me tons of foreign sweets 
but one thing that drives me going 
it just keeps me up at night 
is that one big 5k backpack that I'm dying to call ALL MINE

Ode to Cape of the Trailblazer by Queen's Who wants to live forever

There's no trail for us
There's no blaze for us
What is this cape that builds our dreams
Yet slips awaaaay from us

Who wants to live forever?  Who wants to live forever?

There's low chance for us
This gear is optimal for us
These hills have only one sweet target
Set in the drops for us

Who wants to live forever? Who wants to live forever? 

But touch my steps with sandwich
Touch my flowing watch with your rare drop tips 
And we can loot forever
And we can walk forever*
The remains are ours today

Who wants to live forever? Who wants to live forever?
Who waits forever, anyway?

I Miss The Sun by The Police's Every breath you take

Every move I make
Every step I take 
Each record I break 
Every single day
I'll make ghost goo-oo

Every breath I take
Even not awake
Every game I play
Every word I say
It's all ghost goo-ooo

I can't cross sea
No way south for me
How my poor heart aches
With every step I take

Every move I make
Every bank they break
Every saw I create
How much tries it takes
It's all ghost goo-oo 

With no Pass we've been blocked - can't south migrate
I dream at night, I just see my camel's face
I look around, but it's dunes I can't replace
I feel so cold, and I long for Sun's embrace
I keep appeasing spirits, spirits, please

Oh can't you see
Passage through for me
From this cool dewy place?
How many steps it takes 

Every move you make
Each record you break
For a quite few days
Every step you take
Is for ghost goo-oo

The Helpful Herbert Botting Mini-FAQ FYI Intro

The Discord server has a Helpful Herbert bot who is very helpful. It works if your Discord account is linked on the portal webpage under 'Account': https://portal.walkscape.app

Per Jan 2026, the Helpful Herbert bot supports 3 commands. To see them all, type /, scroll through any potential other bots that are less helpful to find the ones about Helpful Herbert, and you can see the commands he supports there.

The commands are used by typing them into any chat channel that Helpful Herbert is present on. Typically the commands will show response messages that are only visible to you, except in the case of flex where the point is to show off to others.

In order to interact with options, first type the command (or start of it), and then click on the suggestion. You will see the list of options it has, and you can click on the option name to select from a list of possible values instead of having to guess yourself. You cannot generally expect to just type these as words into the command, they must be magic selections from the list.

/flex allows you to show off your last used character's stats.The output of this command is printed to the channel you run the command on.

• One option: detailed - show more details.

/set_flair allows you to set little information after your name, such as your character's total steps taken.

• Two options: type: xp/value, rank or level - what to show, and flair: <ability>, total_xp, total_level, achievement_points or total_steps

/set_nick allows you to change your nickname on the server (the regular /nick command is disabled).

The little banners that people have for different Walkscape locations are set by admins manually, so leap at the opportunity when say Weasel asks who wants to tout their Jarvonian nature.
