Would you happen to know where the actual lore is?

Yes, but it's made pretty clear that Medeusculors can't be enchanted like that...

I'm not sure the circumstances of these, but in the guide on Medeusculors it states...

I wasn't aware of this. Is there a post about it?

As a starting note, it has been base ideal on LotC since the beginning that technology shall never advance into the age of guns and things like it. I love the lore. It's well written, makes RP sense. However, things like this have been trying to be implemented for ages. Let's go back to the hand-cannons of Anthos, for example. They acted similarly to this, and were removed. On the note of Medeusculors, they truly have no extra effect. They are used solely for flare on the part of mages. Now, onto this lore. I'd like to compare it to Medeusculors. Medeusculors are a catalyst, similar to a mage's staff, that cannot be augmented and must be powered by the mana straight from the mage. They are no more powerful than summoning the fireball and throwing it at the target like you normally would. I'd argue these rune handguns are not for flare like a medeusculor is, as you don't have to BE anything beforehand to use them. The action of firing is, in itself, from the gun, not the user. A normal Joe cannot walk up and throw a lead ball at a target and that throw be strong enough to pierce armor and skin. For those reasons, the rune handgun is, in itself, not for flare. The grey area in which the Medeusculor was able to come in is simply not applicable for this lore. No matter the way this idea is formatted, it is still in essence a gun. As before mentioned, it has always been that guns were not to be on LotC. For those reasons...

I liked. +1

So in basis the Greek muses? Also! Love it! Great story and a great idea for a Deity. Big +1

To answer Mephistophelian's question, I can imagine it will be much more used than the original lore simply because it is now going to be apart of a larger magic group. Soul contracting was always very similarly to puppetry and it makes a good deal of sense to be added in. And to the other question! Seems it was brought up in puppetry chat to be reviewed and given feedback on before it was posted to the forums!

I like the idea, but the way the lore itself is written I'm not a fan of. I'd like to be the guy who pops in with a whole list of questions that inspires a lot of changes that fixes whatever I feel is wrong with the lore but that's not me. I can't put my finger on it but I'd suggest just going back over it and making sure everything is covered and nothing is confusing. Also, if you're making changes, put a WIP or something in the title to alert the LMs. At least, I think they still like you to do that...

I believe all non-ET/playable creatures are registered under this doc. No need for a second post. And all new plants go here!

Gun meet head. Also, first.

Edited. And for the final question, I've already seen roleplay different from those races provided. If accepted, I will most likely be asking the ET to do a few small events to introduce players to the creatures. From that point, they could be used in small road events to create some small problems with travelers. As well, I hope to keep them as active as possible to keep providing interesting events. I know that's not much, but they are different and will provide a different experience.

In the intro I explain it was accepted and then removed because of a few issues.

Sprites “Jewels of the forest can sometimes be found in the smallest of creatures.” Intro :: Going into this lore, I’d like to go ahead and explain my reason for writing this. The original idea came from Zer0_ which was removed and planned to be rewritten but never was. Using that as a basis, I’ve rewritten the lore to be just a good as the original. Originally, a small group of players were chosen to play them and participate in their event line, but I’m fine with them being an event-only race or one that is staff controlled for the player base to enjoy. Please post any and all feedback in the comments. And now, for the lore! :: Origin Exactly how these small creatures came to be is still a mystery. Perhaps the Creator brought them to being or Cerridwen’s breath on the mortal realm. Whatever the case, these small wonders of the woods can be seen many a night far into the forest lighting the darkness like fireflies. Sprites are known for their mischievous nature, some going as far as to call them ‘The Tricksters in Flight’. These creatures will almost never pass up an opportunity to torment the traveler in any way they can. However, that is only if one can find an area in which they live. They prefer calm, serene sections of the forest, preferably with no mortal interference on the landscape. For those well versed in Sprites, it is said that they hold important jobs such as changing the seasons but no one has ever recorded seeing such an event. In fact, most have never seen these creatures do much at all and doubt they can. Sprites are known for their short attention spans. Imagine them as a child with wings who needs surprises to keep them interested. Appearance -Sprites stand about 5-7 inches with elf-like features and translucent wings sprouting from their backs. -Sprites are genderless but have features resembling male or females. -Sprites clothe themselves in flower petals and any soft, pliable forest-growths they can find. -Sprites speak an odd tongue that can be learned but is quite difficult for Descendant minds to wrap their heads around (will be writing it if its accepted for Sprite players) -Sprites are not born like normal beings. Sprites are grown from a special flower called “Acerifolia ” that blooms in a perfect environment found in some forests. Imagine the Sprite like the bloom of the flower. When the growth of the flower completes and it blooms, a sprite is born and the flower withers and dies. When a sprite is killed, they are reborn as a new flower and go through the same process again. They come out full-grown with all the information of the world that they need to survive. Coloring The color of the sprite determines almost exactly some of the mannerisms of the sprite. Each sprite can be any color with no rhyme or reason as to which they will be. Each are unique in their own way whether that be their color or their appearance. Green “Wisdom and immaturity in a stunning union.” Sprites born with the color green are wiser and more intellectual than their kin- often more keen to learn something new. They can provide interesting outlooks upon a situation based on their observations, and are even known to have a bigger attention span. Blue “Curious and kind.” Sprites born with the color blue are considered the most likable of all. They are known to be the first to explore, and the first to make a new friend. Taking that in mind, they are much more adventurous than their kin, wanting to seek new places and new friends, which can often lead to trouble. Sky Blue “Deceit and deception in the wings of the sky.” Sprites born with the color of the sky are known to be the most deceitful. They use their similar coloring to their blue kin to lure people to trust them, only to torment them and trick them for their own amusement. Grey “Laziness and ambition in the wings of the clouds.” Sprites born with the color grey are very similar to their sky-colored kin. They use their words and sickly appearance to trick others into doing their work for them. Red “Rage.” The sprites born of red are known as being the most short-fused of all their kin. They tend to take their tricks and jokes to a new level, doing all they can to cause problems and disputes. They are jealous and rude, often coming off as the least likable of all sprites. Acerfolia The Acerfolia is a small flower with a large oval shaped bud and triangular leaves. It grows about five inches, and is the birth place of all Sprites. They can only be found in sections of warm forests near streams. After the span of about six weeks, the bud will flourish and a Sprite will be born from it. There is usually only one to two places in a realm where these flowers grow. When a sprite dies, another flower will sprout in one of these locations. Advantages/Disadvantages +Can commune with nature +Very smart +Can fly, but can’t fly very high(Minecraft mech only 2-3 blocks high). Due to using too much energy they would need a surface to rest on before getting into place. (High to us and their size are different.) -Can not wield magic -Can not hold a weapon -Easily trapped -Not many of the Sprites exist, If one was to destroy the flower during the development or destroy the tree around the flower. Before the Sprite is born, the sprite will die. - Injuring the wings of a sprite can be potentially fatal, as the sprites main blood vessels are located there. -Magic is super effective towards the sprites and can kill them quickly due to their connection to nature. -Can learn the Common tongue but it would be difficult due to their attention spans. Red lines -Can not be pets -Only live in woods, marsh, lake, or other water based areas, mostly forestry -CANNOT USE OTHER MAGICS but can only commune with animals/nature, they are not connected to Druidism or it’s magic. -Can not be tamed

((Very happy to see Monks trying to become an active group again! Been a long time since I've seen you guys openly abroad. Looking forward to future roleplay!))
