Good idea Fvaar! Double the challenge and experience.
Because sometimes even national leaders just want to hang out

Technically also, with only one of each of the sides the force in this dimension, the force is in balance, a lot more than it was for the longest time in star wars legends canon. For a lot of the republic's history there were way too many light side users compared to dark side users, which is something Anikin kind of fixed by wiping out both sides during his life
I have to challenge sterling to get out more and not just sit cooped up and reading books, like he tended to do last time I was here. He only really interacted with Gio and Willow last time I played him here, and a few others(can't remember exactly) so he doesn't know a lot of the building's residents. Being more social and helpful would be a good thing for him. Everyone needs social interaction after all

I'll can have one of my guildies attract Sterling to their table along with Prim and the rest can join in.
How is this so far? is there anything I should change, revise, spellcheck, or would you consider this good?Saleon wrote:

Weaknesses: Can't react to spells 2 higher than her power level, or if concealment is placed on a spell 1 power level higher. Does not work on white magic, as the lantern only reacts to other forms of magic.

List:
- Lantern of white- A magical lantern capable of illuminating the darkest areas. It has vast magical properties to assist a mistress of the light brigade. The lantern can only be lit for roughly 10 minutes. After being depleted, the lantern naturally replenishes after 3 hours before being able to be used.
What if I went with something along the lines of "Her partner, who seemingly disappeared through a wormhole. Rare magics may have even involved a dimensional 'jump.'" Scientifically I could justify it by time travel technology, agreed as illegal because duh, which would just be jumping a dimensional timeline. blah blah blah blah, fake science, blah blah blah, magical character.Swith Witherward wrote:Saleon wrote:How is this so far? is there anything I should change, revise, spellcheck, or would you consider this good?
Looks good to me. I'd recommend only one change:
" Primary Objective: To find her partner who has disappeared after entering Demens, but not leaving. Astra has gone against the norm and is attempting to find her on her own."
Nobody knows about Demens' dimension except for a few gods. Characters brought to the Building are basically torn from wherever they were, and are now "chosen". Your character will have come from whatever home dimension she hail from, none-the-wiser on her new settings. Only Demens himself can arrange travel to/from.
Her primary goal would become moot five minutes after arriving and being told no one else from her dimension arrived. It's better to start with something that can be played out over time to develop the character.
A quick reminder... newly arriving characters have to go through the process with the front desk cultist. This allows brand new characters to ask questions that the GM or the CoOPs can answer. It's also where we lay down ground rules for the setting. Bran, you'll need to have Drova back away for a bit so we can get that done. If IJ posts at all. If you involve her in conversation, stuff might get overlooked or you might progress faster than the CoOPs can respond.
This is a biggie with IJ's character because Demens is aware of her... interests. Volker needs to make it explicitly clear that she will suffer if she fucks with her fellow Residents.

You don't have to push yourself for us. Last thing we want is permanent damage done because you wanted to get a reply up sooner than later.

I believe I remedied all of the issues, though I do wonder if the Daggers still need a power level given that I took out all their magical aspects. They're about the same as ordinary daggers now with the exception of their symbolic meaning and the poison.
I also cut the 'Inner Darkness Externalization' entirely and replaced it with a racial trait for Dark Elves. That being the increased resistance towards magic-esque attacks.
Approved. Thanks for your patience IJ.I'll write her intro shortly. Intro here: viewtopic.php?p=27255884#p27255884
Min or Tilt: can you run the front desk cultist in my stead? The new character(s) need to sign the lease and get the key or the Building won't allow them up the stairs.
We're down a CoOP. Swith's unable to function due to a possibly torn tendon in her hand. Pain high, movement nil. My brutal schedule will keep my online time limited until later this week.
