  1. PURPOSE: Unfortunately the lore only states how to destroy a combat pet using only blunt strikes, yet completely ignoring things such as armor-piercing attacks, boomsteel attacks using a sharp weapon, or merely harsh strikes with any sharp weaponry, capable of inflicting enough kinetic force regardless. This aims to provide a clear way of handling these creatures without any confusion or thoughts of them being completely immune to anything (i.e sliced in half by carbarum) unless they're slapped twice by a hammer. OLD LORE: Servants & Pets Hide contents Commonplace within workshops and the homes of those affluent in the clockwork artifice of Animatii are servants, drones, and clockwork critters which serve a variety of different purposes, defined in the 2nd to 4th tiers of Automata. In the case of critters, able to be made around the size of a Golden Retriever at the largest, they may take a freeform design of one’s choosing within reason, such as spiders which help weave clothing, messenger birds, companions such as rats, or metallic dogs to help carry objects about. Tier 3 Pets abide by all of LoTC’s rules on pets in combat, should they be used for such, and should their vessels or tubing be cut they would bleed out within [5] emotes, with their limbs and components able to be destroyed in [2] blunt strikes. Animatii mounts such as horses are also included in this tier, their components requiring [3] blunt strikes to destroy and [8] emotes to bleed out, and may only be used in any way which a mundane horse would be allowed to in combat. NPC servants, such as humanoid automatons or sapient work benches, are entirely benign and non-combative in nature. They may be used as butlers to make or ferry food around one’s home, NPC crew on a naval ship, and other similarly flavorful purposes. - Both Servants & Pets are unable to transfer information between owners, or be used to metagame whatsoever. - Tier 3 Animii companions follow all rules for pets in combat, and may not exceed the size of a Golden Retriever. They are relatively fragile, owing to their smaller size and more primitive minds, and will otherwise act much as a mundane critter would. - One cannot use many multiples of a pet or mount to accomplish a feat that would require Smoggers to perform, such as moving a colossal house with a horde of Animatii buffalo.

Meaning one may destroy a combat pet's limb by harshly striking it twice with a greatsword, and once with a hammer. -The destruction of the pet's head prior to its bleeding out results in its loss of intelligence, awareness and combat capability, due to its loss of intelligence and sensory modules. -Destruction of its Geartheart results in instant death.

    please advise

    i agree with the 2k-5k minas mark, seeing how your art is really high quality and well done. i'd say price it by the type of art you're offering, like if it's bust then 2k, half body 3.5k, full body 5k, etc then people of different wealth will be able to commission you depending on what they're looking for and you get to rake in minas without having to target just the top 5 wealthiest

  13. hiding races behind a CA so ST can revoke in the case of meme rp is just calling for ST to do moderation work bit nonsensical
  14. "Amen." Said Naele, the devout canonist.
  15. people will do it regardless of CA or not, as we've seen kha were always CA yet still so many furries wanting them. nothing will stop their dedication just bully them out of it

  17. due to how simple their lore is, they can be written up as a CA by really anyone, even subpar and shitty RPers, and there are many cases of that. the reason i'm against an application wall being put to to these races is due to how useless it is seeing how they really dont get shit for benefits, drawbacks and insane lore size to memorize that puts them on the level of an actual CA making it a hindrance for people to play these beast races then complaining that theyre not that active is not the way to go you kinda need an understanding to play ANY race in general. you need to know orcs are just much stronger than anyone else and go in rage, that humans live for much less than other people, that elves live practically forever and are infertile, etc also yea olog should remain CA but they arent really beastmen so doesnt matter in this post
  18. still not valid to warrant a CA, there are gonna be good and bad actors everywhere, even people who make a CA. but locking them behind something that will sabotage activity is not healthy
  19. i think its a bit nonsensical to have people summarize the lore of a race and 'sign a contract' that they will be upholding CA-level RP when they just wanna roleplay a cute musin working in a bakery, it should be left exclusively for things that NEED that level of high quality RP due to the give and take required and the many pages of lore to be understood before playing it but a walking cat? it should be treated on the same level as other normal races
