Alright, so, after much thinking, I have decided that I would like to appoint @Ashifili as my Co-GM, both from recommendations from others and activity. If you're willing to accept this position, I'll be more than happy to have you on the job!

I... think that it's time for sign ups to be closed since any more would burn out poor Gnar. I'm not a GM but I'd like to say my opinion anyways since it might get unmanageable really soon.


<Snipped quote by Grey Star>

I second this for the sake of Gnar. Even with a Co-GM this is still a still a large amount of people to manage and it just seems to continue growing.


I have the kindest players ever ;-;

As much as I would like to make everyone happy and keep the sign-ups open, I feel as if you guys are right, and that I may in fact burn myself out if I do accept anymore... and as such, as of this moment, sign-ups shall be closed. They may reopen in the future, but as of now they shall be closed.

I would like to point out that his Savant's Eye is similar to Free's Reactive Adaptation. The difference is that he mearly learns the skill (up to and not exceeding the level of the person he copied it from I'm assuming) and doesn't gain any physical traits or excel quickly. On the other hand, he learns them permanently, and Free cannot learn abstract skills like language or singing from observation (but she does learn them faster on her own).


Hmmm... In that case, I suppose that is fine then. If it works like that, then he's acceptable.

Oh right Gnar, just to make sure I have this clear, but the room is as follows right?

Six statues surround a lone door, under each of their original positions is a tile.

On the wall is a circular diagram/table/chart with six square fillings.

Just a bit confused if those words are all describing the same thing and simply used because Rena and the others see it differently.

There are actually small sigils that are IN the tiles underneath their original positions. While the tiles aren't movable, the sigils are removable.

The diagram/table/chart doesn't just have the six square fillings... but over 100 elemental square fillings, each being a single element and being in a specific order. It resembles something that can be found on Earth, but the layout is vastly different.

Aye it seems like a very visual puzzle, and not being able to actually see it like our characters makes it a tad harder to figure out. I got my own ideas of course, but I'm really not sure if I have the right idea.

Edit: OH I was right earlier, remember how I said "Hey maybe this is Aurora's version of the periodic table." I'm paraphrasing obviously.

I say feel free to discuss it here; considering the puzzle is a bit hard, I'll allow some metagaming~

Huh. Must have mixed it up with the six Saints, or whatever they were called, that were supposed to be elsewhere on the wall.

Damn, messed up a lot of my IC posts running off that misunderstanding then.

@Zombehs @Guilty Spark

You guys want to take this into a PM to actually figure this out first? You know to take this out of the OOC so we don't annoy people.

With great power, comes great evil as I usually say~

Hmmm, just keep an eye on things and lay down the smack on people. The usual I say.

Although! For a test run as Co-GM, I'll be giving you reign over the groups who are in "The Ruined City of Mankind, Halton" and "The Nest of the Highborne", since their stories haven't been fleshed out quite yet. You're free to torture, entertain, and have fun with them as you see fit~ This'll also give me a chance to see how you do with World-Building as well!

Are there any particular rules you want me to follow? Anything you want me to avoid (such as dropping Scions on their face and whatnot)?

@Gnar The Missing Link Just to make sure, is there anything about the room (door, statues, etc) which our characters would be able to see, but that you haven't described yet?

Apologizes for all the questions, but we here at Team Taxpayers are really hard at work to crack this puzzle. Anyway when Rena examines to sigils would they be the same elements as the statues, that is assuming I'm right by thinking the sigils themselves are made from a single element like that?

Count yourself lucky that all you guys get is a puzzle while Team Attack of Woolie gets to drown in a volcano.

Hmmm... The only thing that I can think of, is that there is a slot for the sigils on the door, but only one of them is the right one. To figure out which one is the right one, you will need Valair's power- Soul Anchor. As a big tip, I suggest using your power on the statues, since one of them actually has the faint essences of a Saint... and that this puzzle was made by one of them.

There's symbols on the floor in front of the statues as well, that if you compare to the first six center elements in the Aurora periodic table on the wall with Rena's power, and if you were to compare them to our own periodic table, you can figure out are actually numbers ranging from 1 to 6.

Yup! There are six sigils in total, and they match the six statue elements. Although, only one is the correct one that will activate the door and allow it to work while the others wont do anything. Once the statues are in their proper positions, the door will be filled with magic and allow people to pass through it.

You need to use all of your powers to solve this puzzle efficiently.

By using and comparing the Aurora Periodic Table to our own (Rena), you should be able to figure out the order that they statues are meant to go in ('Glaive'). Just think very carefully how the periodic table is organized. In order to figure out which sigil is the right one, you may need to transfer some life essence into the statues to see which of the Sigils actually works with the Gate (Valair), since the Saint who made this puzzle placed their own life essence into their own statue- which will will refuse to allow any kind of life essence to be imbued within it.

Though, when you think about it, everything so far as been rather 'Earth'-ly, don't you think? If I recall... wasn't there a Saint of the Earth?

I'll just leave my most useful hint here: Perhaps Valair should use his power on the most normal-looking of the statues to find which Sigil is correct.

These are some really big hints I'm dropping here, so I hope this is enough. Anymore, and I might start taking away from the rewards. >_>
