  1. yesyesyesyesyes a great excuse to implement more unconventional symbol-sign combos. perhaps, also throw in grace? perchance? :)
  2. Removed text is bold and struck through. Added text is bold & underlined. Old (All) New (Recipe/Creation) New (Effects) New (Redlines) Why Recipe/Creation: If you pay close attention to the recipe there's no actual second addition of a connection symbol within the steps listed in the creation process. Only 1 connection is used, not 2 in the process. Also the subtitle of the section still has the 'optional, only if it requires a specific process' text from the template. Effects: Currently, Sieg's candles cause Mystics & Ghosts to glow instantly on contact, while inanimate objects infused with ectoplasm only glow when the candle is burning. I am of the opinion that this should be reversed so only items/structures with ectoplasm glow on contact with the candle, while Mystics & Ghosts are only revealed when the candle is actually used. Redlines: General clean up. The mentions of "two emotes following the candle's ignition" & the redline saying "vapor candles will take two emotes after being lit to fill their range" seems generally confusing/redundant to me, as a 3 emote use time is already the default now for potions. Also typo is fixed, and other relevant redlines have been adjusted to fit the changes made to the effects.
  3. Gotta say, I'm a fan of the write. I like the re-contextualization and actual intrigue this gives ologs. My only criticism comes in the form of the Rage ability, and the sudden brain-blast ologs would get- though i absolutely love the "get a kill to extend your Rage" trait. Making Ologs 'dumber' mechanically as opposed to thematically may be the way to go. I'm sorry, I don't see an olog actually bothering to use alchemy/golemancy, let alone the further alchemy(s) such as tawkin or animatii. MAYBE smoggers gets a pass? I think making them take twice as long to learn knowledge-based FAs would be best, with further alchemy(s) being wholly inaccessible- or/and making them incapable of making CAs based off of those feats with the exception of sorvians as making little clay sculptures supported by wood and blood is absolutely something someone with massive hands could enjoy. Edit: Just an afterthought for the magics. maybe a limit for what tiers of magic an olog can use, similar to scionism, could be applied instead of sacrificing the olog's rage if they decide to pick one up. not because they are actually stupid, but because their minds are too volatile/filled with internal turmoil to reach those upper-limits of what a descendant's mind could do? again, 'mechanically' stupider, not literally. Suggestions for Rage are within the Spoiler, along with the quoted ability itself for ease of access. all and all, +1 my dude. hope this goes somewhere.
  4. though i understand where this is coming from I gotta disagree. A lot of lore units are divided not by IRL measurements but instead per item OR whatever that item is based off of, regardless of how large or small they are. 1 Red Oil potion = 1 count unless specified. keeps things flexible and simple despite the vagueness, & more importantly reduces the amount of math people may need to do
  5. TAKE THIS AS AN EXCUSE TO FIX THE CONTRADICTORY REDLINES PLEASE GOD I BEG OF YOU also +1. fih forging
  6. I would prefer this as well. i'll update the amendment for both options to be available for LT to choose between
  7. Additions are BOLD and ITALIC Old New, Option A: the Shunter can choose to bring 2 people, but the shunter needs to stay put when doing so. New, Option B: the Shunter can bring up to 2 people when solo shunting, no strings attached. OOC Reasoning: Currently, a shunter can only bring one other person with his or herself. This is by no means a bad limitation, I'd just much prefer being able to focus on GMing for the people that have been sent to an alien world, as opposed to needing to split my attention between both my IRP character and the entire world around the two travelers. And while yes, I could technically do this already by simply emoting my character to sit in one spot and tell whoever else I brought along to go out there and do something, it would restrict me to only send one singular person out there. Solo-adventures will usually lack any social developments that will persist outside of that one shunting trip, so imo It just won't hit right. The suggested change in Option A or B would remedy this, with Option A not actually increasing the amount of exploration the shunter & friends can do on their own without planar coupling whilst Option B (suggested by bak3d) allows more flexibility, but would still be quite inferior to planar coupling.
  8. An inhuman figure more clockwork than man read the missive, nodding along as his glass eyes traced the written words with a hum. A brother to him in mind, this author was, despite the subject-matter being the exact opposite of his own.
  9. It looks like the only thing thats troublesome with copper golems is that they have a mechanic that lets them open doors like villagers.

    unsure how we could disable that with plugins, but if that is done copper golems would be perfectly fine i say.

      Lwc fortunately has a 'golem' flag that disables this behavior. You just need to set it.

  11. Changes are BOLD and UNDERLINED Redlines - Alchemy costs [1] magic slot to learn. If a creature has somehow permanently lost a magic slot OR has no magic slots to begin with, Alchemy will take up no existing/available magic slots. - All recipes in Alchemy – as well as the ability to draw symbols from reagents and botany – require an accepted Feat to create, as well as a tier level equating the complexity of said recipe. - Alchemical Potions are available to all to use unless otherwise specified. - Alchemical Potions require three emotes to use. One to draw, one to prime, and one to throw/consume. A potion has no effect if it is not primed. To prime a potion, the potion must be deliberately be shaken or manually added with a primer to prime. Throwing/Drawing a potion would not count as priming. - A primed potion will only remain primed for two emotes, until becoming inert again, requiring priming to occur again. - A TA in Alchemy is required to teach the Feat to another player. The base alchemy feat can be taught to up to 5 Students at once. - A feat is not required to use items created with alchemy or to utilise botany. That said being blacklisted from alchemy will render someone unable to benefit in any way from items made with alchemy. - All products of alchemy and botany (with the exception of IRL plants without provide poisonous or medicinal uses) used in roleplay must adhere to the redlines and explanation of their specific lore piece and will require up to date approved lore to be used. New recipes cannot be made through roleplay experimentation alone in this regard. - All recipes in Alchemy are divided into ‘common’ and ‘rare’ (currently accepted pieces will be updated to accommodate this). Whilst ‘common’ recipes can be self taught through the means outlined in tier three, ‘rare’ pertains to recipes gated behind Further Alchemy or explicitly requiring IC instruction to learn in said recipe’s lore. - One requires an accepted Alchemy FA before they may learn any form of Further Alchemy which utilizes alchemical processes such as Smoggers, Animatii, Tawkin, etc. Affliction does not require base alchemy in order to learn. - One is required to be a Tier 3 alchemist before they may begin to learn Further Alchemy. Explanation: Get these chud magic-feat stacking users out of here. alchemy has: - 94 effects in base alchemy - the ability to have these effects/'spells' be used by anyone who comes by them - a sizeable hold on the economy through reagents & potions - walking houses - 2 flavors of immortality with further alchemy - infinite clanker slave labor - bootleg necromancy which also makes a rather high-tier CA that has it's own automated resurrection method, super powers and is only able to be pked by a potion which, by knowing it, also gives the alchemist a pk clause - walking houses

  17. A helmed man waved goodbye to the disguised son of an old friend. Closing his warehouse's doors, he lumbered to grip a near-perfect replica of the guest's head sculpted entirely out of Bogodan's clay. He planted it onto a nearby beastial Homunculus incapable of thought, the raw flesh pulsing with life. He waited, letting the graft gradually solidify into true flesh and bone. Thoughts of calm flowed through his mind encased in metal. Should he help the boy- no, his nephew in spirit, in this final lie- he would be able to start anew. A clean man. A good man. Cleansed of his vampiric taint. Able to show us the deceivers within our own ranks. Something worth all the suffering the Roa had placed himself through, and suffering Galathol had allowed. A letter was written, sent out to the Roa once the replicated head was ripe. He held off from cutting it, waiting for a reply. And he waited. And waited. And waited.
  18. u put tawkin in there so i had to vote it but shamanism is definitely the best 'narrative' magic i know of. No
