I think it was just a neat idea to be made so that there would be these beings that are fervent worshippers of different gods and the spirit was an origin but not a main factor in the entire thing. That's just me though. I don't think it'll go too far if it's made too connected to Shamans, it's supposed to be more varied than that by the sounds of it. They cannot learn magic, the lore says that.

While the lore in itself is a good write (although a bit lengthy for its actual explanation,) it seems to really only add onto blood magic's already expansive skill-set and abilities. Although it's slightly different from Arcane Displacement, I feel as though this would do better as an attachment to their magic as it is their particular specialty and purpose, as opposed to a summoning/empowerment/creation magic that's pretty plump in content already. I don't see many instances in which this would legitimately provide much RP for anyone aside from the Blood Mages and their associates, as it only gives those that enter the experience of it as opposed to a summoning ritual that would actually interact with people. From my POV it's a means to gain more for the magic, albeit not maliciously, and provide more for the group itself rather than the playerbase itself. My main thought is that it doesn't really provide much RP to anyone other than the Blood Mages and only allows for more capabilities as opposed to other places of magic that don't want to take as much time writing up lore such as this or find it unnecessary as they're not as much of a niche group. There's a lot to be done with the way Blood Magic currently is and I don't think it needs anything else to tack on because of an idea that was had about it. I fail to see how it enables players to become their own antagonists as well. There's a lot to say about it, but all in all it just doesn't seem like it's going to genuinely give anything to anyone except for those who know it, which might not even be all the blood mages in the already tight knit conglomerate it has going for it. It reads like there's a lot of fluff to the writing to make it larger to the eye and simpler explanations would've been better for something that altogether is looking into other planes of existence and going into them. Like I said, it's nicely written. I don't mean for this to be an insult but I wanted to throw the two cents in there along with some criticism.

It seems like it's a way to implement the magic that was denied previously, mainly from the section in which it begins to explain how the blessed human souls can effect the world and what not. The touchy subject behind it is that the Humans basically decide whoever is to ascend, and if it were the font of creation I see no reason as to why it would exclude all others. It does also seem very similar to the Spirit Realm, which doesn't separate it much from what's already put forth aside from the fact its made out to be stronger. Kind've how its described to be believed where the creator is and how all the higher deities came from it; which is somewhat of a big leap from previous lore. It being the heart of creation is a very odd and somewhat intrusive stance considering all the lore on the server currently. I think the biggest problem is the similarity to the Spirit Realm, and how regardless of those similarities it's the initial font of creation and is powerful over such; even where the Daemon of the Spirit Realm came from initially. It'd complicate a lot of things and seems like a bit of a shove as a means to get past the denial of the previous deific magic put forth.

Not to put the work down at all, but it's also plausible to emote your character having an accent and leaving it up to another player's interpretation/imagination. Probably saves a lot of confusion too.

Aight, my bad then.

Liches aren't inactive, Gravens aren't inactive, Wraiths aren't inactive, Blood Magic isn't inactive. EDIT: The Vourukh are event creatures, I don't see why they'd need removal.

Bounty Completed.

MC Name: Slic3man. IC Name: Kepri of Æthelwulf Age: 32. Race: Human. Minor Backstory: Karob comes from no where in particular, wandering into the wilderness to find a wayward life. Nonetheless he wandered out from the forest's borders with a deer over his back and a blankness to his gaze. His hunched visage was that of a downtrodden ox, muscles tensed at the beast over his shoulders. How he had struck a deer with his blade was not known, but soon the buck with skinned and gutted. He could only live off the wilderness for so long, and so he took to seeking merit, pride visibly tied to his face. Without any thought he looked for the Marked Men, not sated in the daily life of hunting and gathering.

The warclaim is concluded, with Side A (Oren Loyalists & Allies,) rising as the victor. This warclaim is completed. They may now decide to siege either Barrowyck or Vanaheim.
