I enjoyed reading it. As others have pointed out, sticking with that name will cause confusion. But apart from that +1.

With the creation lore being hidden and guarded for no good reason, this is how it's always felt to me.

I get that, certainly. I'm just trying to look at it from a few perspectives. A weakness for the sake of weaknesses isn't a problem in itself, but a lore reason for that weakness is something that should probably be included. And likewise with the talons, my understanding of the Lore fellows is that they like it when lore has one real purpose. And in this case, most of the abilities look closer to self-preservation than hunting or fighting. Hence my belief the Talons don't fit in so well. Regardless, good luck!

Now. My thoughts on the lore? I like it quite a bit. Though there's a few suggestions I'd make. No Magic: - At the moment, this aspect feels forced. A weakness for the sake of weaknesses. When reading the post I don't recall seeing any explanation as to what prevents them using magic. (Apologies if I simply missed it.) I'd suggest you either remove this all-together (I see it detracting from RP, not adding to it) or alternatively, that you elaborate on what physically makes them incapable of using magic. - This is especially so for Blood Magic and Necromancy. As you stated, the creatures are required to feed on Genus and Lifeforce to supplement their own reduced ability to make them. Why are Strigae incapable of using those fuels for other purposes, at great risk to themselves? It would of course require more regular feeding and put them at risk of doing damage to themselves if they don't feed, or put them at elevated risk of devolving if they do. Talons: - To me, this strength doesn't fit well with the others. Most of the enhancements are focused on self-preservation. Ie. Minor improvements to strength and speed, regenerating wounds and difficult to fully destroy. These are all relatively defensive. Whereas Talons are offensive. I'd suggest you remove the Talons part entirely, either as a balance to removing the seemingly forced magic restriction I mentioned above, or as a way to further balance the strengths and weaknesses. The removal of these Talons would serve to remove a strength and add a weakness. (No real non-human offensive measures.) - Alternatively, instead of removing them you could also downgrade them a lot. Instead of being able to grow long blade-like fingernails that can sometimes parry swords, perhaps they could just be permanently pointed fingernails. These would keep a very minor amount of the offence behind talons, without potentially problematic things like parrying swords. It'd also add an extra weakness, in that the these pointed fingernails would be another way of detecting them. That's it for now. I'll re-read in a bit and see if I notice anything else.

I've hidden the arguing and off-topic nonsense. The lore-writers and myself have both asked everyone to stop derailing the thread and shitting on each other. Anyone who continues will be punished. Seriously guys, this nonsense isn't making anyone look good, and it isn't fair on the people who put time into writing this lore.

I think that's more than enough on Frost Witches and perceived similarities to Frost Witches, guys. That argument is going around in circles and needs to stop. Let's focus on the lore itself, alright?

Mcname(s): Rassidic and Gould_ Why he/she is blacklisted: Players mined through Laureh'lin gate for the purpose of villain RP, and lied to players about lockpicking it. Responded with poor attitude when players questioned this. Conditions of blacklist (temporary, permanent, until appeal, etc.): Two weeks. No appeal needed.

After further evidence of this behavior has been found, XXEnderking's blacklist will be extended by 2 weeks to expire after his ban.

I read the whole thing, and I'm impressed. The lore makes for a good read, and the magic sounds very interesting. Nice work.

Mcname(s): HungrySumo Why he/she is blacklisted: Poor Villian attitude. PVPing players after combat has ended. Conditions of blacklist (temporary, permanent, until appeal, etc.): Blacklisted until the 10th of November. 2 weeks after ban has ended.
