[s]WHO THE FUCK ASSIGNS A PRESENTATION ON THE FIRST DAY OF SPEECH CLASS?!?!?![/s] For real tho, I knew college was going to be difficult, but wai?!? D: After adjusting to college I hope to not take so long! Also, I know it sounds unrelated, but my boyfriend just moved in with me, so now I won't be spending half of the week commuting between our two places! So I'll be home a LOT more which means more free time! ^^ [@PyroDash888] Please do! I promise things should go much faster from now one. [s]No one say how much you've heard that before![/s] [@BCTheEntity] I do appreciate your comments. They are far from unfounded, and helpful to those who haven't spoken to me. For you and everyone else, the only reason I agreed to work out Bites's character's ability to summon an avatar because she offered to do a lot of compromising. That being said, [@Nightmare Bites], I have a few comments about your character, some of which do come from what BC said. Your character can idealize Elanom as much as you so choose, but do know that she is a deity and likely views your character as a sort of creation or child. She can also probably look into her mind, as your character is a loyal follower, which makes for pretty one-sided conversations. That is not to say your character cannot hold the favor of Elanom... which she must do so considering the following: It isn't just a decision to give up your powers to be able to summon an avatar. That was a gift to your character from your deity, or something similar to that, chosen some how, ect... Because if anyone could do it, it would be a much easier task. This next part is really a note to you but pertains to everyone; your character can't just summon her willy-nilly. Like, sitting in a bar, walking calmly down the road, ect, your character must have a genuine need. And fighting a single monster or bandit does not qualify. And it will have to have a significant cool down (relative to how long she was summoned, I'd say). (To others: I also accepted under the impression that the character will eventually, not in the far off future but after some time, die. She will not be able to summon her once she dies, for as a spirit she won't be an actual part of the Mortal Plane. ) Everyone else can also know that I retain absolute control over the actual deity, so if Bite's winds up doing something everyone doesn't agree with I'll try to compromise between all parties. I hate to turn back into the point-monster, but this is a power I will keep an eye on. And just to say, it's not you, Bites, it's me. I'm giving a hesitant accept on the basis you understand what I said here.
