Mephistophelian 972 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Benbo, I recall the previous wraiths suffered from some mental drawbacks (and harsher social ones, such as not ever wishing to be near loved ones again, or collecting relics of their past, etc). Will these be having similar drawbacks? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

drfate786 1639 Share Posted June 23, 2016 No, just NO. This lore is for a circle jerk, I can feel it, Wraiths have been hunted down to extinction and shouldn't make a comeback for a very long time. This Drakaar nonsense just butchers what Geoboy worked for. It's just not ideal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wretched 2038 Author Share Posted June 24, 2016 I've clarified to which specific dark magics have the boost and which do not. I've also rephrased that bit to: '100% as fast', '50% of the time' was a bit confusing.

All dark creatures are hunted nearly constantly, that's the idea really. The lore team removed them because they didn't work well, this lore is the hopes to remedy that by ordering wraiths, and giving them a purpose, so that their activity can be maintained and something unique and interesting could be made of it. And finally, Geo is fully in favour of this lore. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current harbs won't need the catalyst, being wraiths already essentially. But, I will be handing out some to ex-wraiths, and give some to existing harbs so that they can reproduce more. This'll probably be done through a mini-event. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They retain the ability; they just can't learn Necromancy if they didn't already know it. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

E__V__O 1984 Share Posted June 24, 2016 I thought liches couldn't practice necromancy besides using the spell necro-drain due to the others using life-force intensive things... -- Adding back to the lore, Bennoboo- nice touches on the additions I can back it now.

It was changed when Liches were revised a little while ago. Edit: Also Benbo wouldn't it be possible for a Necromancer to just pour lifeforce into it gradually until it reached the amount of 15 people? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
