Nah, they're bros. Wouldn't want to separate them as they're pretty reliant on each other in the long run. @Gowi and I've agreed to let them run around in Grant City, but I'm waiting on him to give me some more info on it before I apply. One of their main villains is the head of the Italian mob, and I'd rather have established the where's and how's rather than going into their arcs half-blind.


Alright and understandable.

Quick question: How dark is too dark in this RP? Where is the line drawn? For example, is Netflix Daredevil-level dark-and-grittiness acceptable, or...?

EDIT: To add to this, what do you mean by obscene topics in the rules? Overly silly/offensive? Controversial?

From my understanding, that is more linked with graphic scenes in sexual nature.

Fallen is right, that is more sexual and such. Netflix Daredevil dark is just fine.

Also, my take on the whole magic thing....
as far as I'm concerned, magic is in a way like religion. There are many different types of magic, and many different ways to harness it.
You can write up guidelines and laws for a specific type of magic, but there may be another form out there that doesn't fall in line with those guidelines, and that is just fine.

As Tearstone basically said, we're basically just organizing what is currently being made really and VAT said nothing was canon until it made it into the IC Anyone wants to build off what we have, great there's the information. If they don't, that's fine too. Everyone likes different things.

@Dedonus@Tearstone@Gowi @Fallenreaper @Athinar @fdeviant@NeutralNexus @KaiserElectric@VATROU

Not to be a pain, but can we organized this Doc a bit differently? Namely as I don't know exactly where to put things for accurate listing and easy searching. So might I make a suggestion?

How about we break it down into two or three Header sections: Magical Aspects*/Spells, Cultures, and Living Beings/Creatures/Icons.

Mainly because some things can go into one or more of the placed headers (Werewolves are classed shapeshifters but they are also animistic because they turn into a wolf which is an animal or some are forced to remain like that in some species. So it might easier if we mainly break it up into more general categories rather than very linear ones.

Another option is this: just list the Header with who's lore is listed there and let the second headers be the listing of what each section is.

What you do you say?

@Dedonus as in part of my plan had them unable to interact with our realm in the same way the greek gods do.


I don't see it as a problem.

Even under Ded's method... different beings, different realms, plausible that their influence crossing these realms is different.

Unless people are hands off with calling 500 things arcane when it is pre-established what arcane is it doesn't really bug me, if I'm going to be honest. I don't care if people want to use arcane magic in its multiple uses, but it’s one thing to have different sources for fire magic or different spells/domains— but changing the fabric of canon and contradicting someone else because you want to seems kind of a good way to get a cab down problem avenue.

I'll need some more examples of what you're asking for. We have Header 1 which is the Main subject, like Magic Systems, then Header 2 which goes into what magics those are. Then for things like Demi humans it goes into header 3 which discusses those specifically. So. I'm not following what you have in mind.

Depends on character as well though...

For example you're going to have different characters who's education (particularly on magic) is going to be more regimented and classical... some who have been picking up what they can from brilliant masters of the craft but more freely... and some who are virtually self-taught.

And then Isaac, who's completely ignorant to magic and all out of shits to give.

He'd probably call something arcane that wasn't to a master of magic accidentally at first and then just repeat it over and over to get a rise out of him.

Some supernatural things are likely to fit into more than one area. Kitsune for example, only goes into animalistic by default because there's section for Spirits. In addition, as I mentioned, there's creatures that belong in other areas like werewolves are usually classed as shapeshifters or could go into the animalistic because they are always fox based. I was suggesting either more board labels or dividing the doc into sections for each RPer involved where they list their own made lore. Visually it would seem like this.

Method 1
Title: Magic Doc
Header 1: Magic Aspects*/Spells, Cultures, and Living Beings/Creatures/Icons.
Header 2: Sections listing the specifics over what is in each one.
Header 3: Even more details over Header 2 sections. (optional)
* Magical Systems or anything that doesn't fit with the others.

Example: H1- Living Beings/Creatures/Icons, a header 2 under that would be something like skin walkers, werewolves, gargoyles, etc.

Method 2
Title: Magic Doc
Header 1: Tearstone, Fallenreaper, fdeviant, etc
Header 2: Section listings of the lore each individual made in their own section.
Header 3: Specifics of those sections. (optional)

Example: H1-Fallen, H2 Werewolves, Kitsune, etc. H3, listing of werewolf species, kitsune species, etc. (Only used mine because it was easier)

fdeviant also has a witch's shapeshifting spell listed under Shapeshifters in the demi-human section, which I think it is more of a spell and ability associated with Witchcraft than an actual creature that shapeshifts since it states in the description that it's witches that do it. In my mind, that's more of a spell/ability than another creature. I could be wrong though but that's how it reads to me.

At this point I'll just make the RP a damn wiki.


You think this is bad? Be thankful you've never seen Blood Act, that's a causal and it has about as much or more lore than CAH.

Add on: The most pitiful part of this, I'm never this orderly with my own notes off line. EVER.

Do we have the concept of alternative reality?


One of my characters dropped into this world from another... and he's not alone, I believe @Dedonus character sheet for his Greek gods has them coming from an alternate realm. @Gowi's Mage has Merlin's library as existing in a pocket dimension withing a closet. Umbraxis has been rolling through destroying other dimensions.

...and back onto my own character he's dealt with aliens who are part of a force that protect all universes and the integrity of the space/time continuum.

So "Yes", but depending on the context for what you want to do, you might want to discuss it with the GMs prior to making your character sheet or risk having to slightly alter some of the smaller details to make it fit.
