[✗] [Amendment] Necromancy

[nepir 472]

 

Main lore we are covering in this amendment.

https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forums/topic/186820-magic-lore-necromantic-thaumaturgy/ 

 

Sacrament of the vicar.

 

For those not well versed in necromancy this is the rite to create a lich, something impressive and in all senses a core of necromancy. The figurehead so to speak, yet to create such has become impossible. As the required resources are not only locked behind ST events that are nonexistent now there is a whole new magic build on top of it. that can turn them into a metal respectively

 

Referring back to being told that due to the influx of this metal and magic getting a large quantity of the bones they will no longer be handed out. create a soft lock for necromancers reaching their final form.

 

My proposal is as followed

 

Active lore:

 

• Black Phylactery Dust
• Blood of a Hag
• *Remains of a Dragon*
• Fleshsmithing Tools

 

Altered lore:

 

• Black Phylactery Dust
• Blood of a Hag
• *Remains of a draconic creature*
• Fleshsmithing Tools

 

This will generate a possibility for using lesser draconic beings for the resources. dragons / wyverns / drakes / basalisk / hydra. Pygmy dragons will fall outside of this instance due to the required mass. and azdrazi might be a option. yet will not add them in the listing for the reason of those not beeing in the "Dragonic" listing.

 

This change will give the necromancers the ability to once again raise liches without having to hound after dragon bones. that are mythical at this point. I had a different instance, of possibly making dragonium a option for this but such leads in to a difrent issue. the instance were Soulbinds will still make the aquiring of such inpossible. and the altered state to a metal.

Yap thank you for catching that.

[Mestvin 947]

Again this was amended long ago.

Remains of a Dragon

Creatures of legend, one does not hunt dragons without being wary of the risk.  Valued for many reasons among scholars, necromancers in particular hold dragonflesh in high esteem for its resilience when acted upon by copious sums of lifeforce.

- Remains of a Dragon is an ST-Approved ingredient that is gathered through the skeletal remains of a Greater Dragonkin; (Drake, Dragon, Dragaar, Drakaar.)

- Only Raw Dralachite Chunks may suffice, Dracanium Ingot's may not be used due to being refined.

 

Redlines:

• Black Ingredients are gathered through Roleplay.

• Black Ingredients must be obtained legitimately through roleplay.

• For instance, a Necromancer cannot simply conjure an Ent's Lichen out of thin air.
   

Fun fact, we have already slain a drake month prior to amendment, and couldn't get the bones ^^

Good to see this is precent, and that actualy sounds like a oversight in that particilure event. I like that I am in line with what others were thinking. I asume then that that this falls more so in to the department of adding hydra, wyvern and basalisk to the listing of dragonkin and altering the particilure spells choice of words. as referenced prior. those do fall in the same line up for our lore to be fitting but not in line with dracanium as this was a resource that had become bloated. 

[Mestvin 947]

Wyverns are drakes, but adding basilisks or hydras is overstepping it too much.
The amendment was written into craft of heith-heidran instead of thaumaturgy.

I am more so looking towards the point of basilisks and hydras to at least have a path open for resources of dragonic origin with out feeding dracanium. in my memory both also dont get used often and are still a greater threat. so can you elaborate on what makes them to much to add to the listing of feeding in to the sacrament?

May I present this, which came out uhh. . . 2 months ago! By yours truly. Needing ANY Event Team stamp to make a CA when Event Team Members only do events for specific groups (sad but true) 70% of the time is a bad way to have a CA be locked behind 'effort', as I have tried to get bones already FROM an actual ET event (Mordring my beloved come back), and have killed a Wyvern which the ET then never gave us the remains for AT ALL because. . . No reason, they just ghosted us.

After re-reading the lore, (I hate LOTC lore) I agree with you, though basilisks still seem far easier to kill than a wyvern.

I hope that one can overwrite what I offer up, as I like the idea of tossing dragon any thing out of the window. this one was mainly to tweek it out of the black hole that your meme purfectly discribes. yet still stay very close to the original in case some one had some grand reason for inputting dragon in to the sacrament.

Yes, I do agree afcourse a wyvern against a basilisk I will pick a basilisk any time of the week. granted you dont always get lucky of finding one of those. on that very same point I forced pygmy dragons out of this. I feel a horde of those will be killable by one necromancy with some decent preperation and I also dont wish to take away the sense of acomplishment. for reaching lichdom. Or creating a cheap way of getting lichdom. The basilisk added to the listing both reflects in its source lore so it makes sense. And even if the are not on pare with a wyvern I do feel the require more players to handle.

The mention of that is 100% true, definatly the fact both of you have come acrose not getting the very item to advance your character I have had it in difrent instances. This is a whole difrent issue. that falls in ET problems that cant be fixed by us. In my opinion ET are allowed to run there events for there friends and there community but there is the habbit that the sole do it for there community forgetting others. And get guarded with phrases like "the are volunteers" And "Become ET then" "Its not there job" When this very instance is a exemple of that not working. the amendment will not bring this issue to light or help with that. such a thing has to be observed by those in charge and corrected. I know of some ways that might help this issue in the long run but that requires a difrent poste.

This lore has been denied.

 

This went to an internal vote and did not pass.
