In other news, my mega-summary is now half-way through the IC, at least in terms of page count. The average content of each post is growing, though.



I apologise that it isn't exactly light reading. (I wonder if the finished produce will fit under the character limit?)

So I just found this wonderful thing... and it made me think.

We're still so very much in the Dawn Age of the world. What we do will become Legend and Story... what is our legacy as Gods going to be?

Creative Challenge for the group: in lieu of Majora's mask, the Daedric Artifacts, the ring of Suaron, that sort of jazz, what sort object would your God pour their power into, either as blessing or curse, and what powers would it bestow?

Holy shit, I forgot about the crown that Keriss has to channel Vulamera's powers. Probably useless now that Vulemera is one with the codex

If I ever make an appearance, Helvana would leave shawls made of crow feathers that allows people to turn into crows just like her.

Keriss would probably make a shield with a single, large eye that would make any who look at it; be crippled with pain, some terrible memory would haunt them, and/or have a hallucination of something that would just make them suffer.

Considering that the Crown of Pain channels Vulamera's powers, its power is probably greatly lessened now, although it probably still holds some residual power.

That's a tricky one. Especially for Teknall, who could make practically anything, but would only do so if he had a reason, which makes it hard to speculate. If you want me to come up with something, though, Teknall's artefact of power might be a godly foundry in which a mortal smith might be able to create objects of divine power.

We already have a few such artefacts of great power floating around, though. Zephyrion poured 10 Might into a magic staff which grants divine command over the Firewind Desert. Vestec carved up the body of Reathos into a set of fancy and unique artefacts.

Huh, sort of how that thing Tauga gave Keriss reacted with her to make an apparition of Vakarlon appear for a brief moment?

I don't think I've grown Amartía enough, in my opinion, to give him a defining symbol yet. Haven't found his niche yet.

Same. Farxus is still new to the world and doesn't know what sort of item he would want to leave behind.

Ah, your summary reminded me about how that lynch mob that Ventus created still needs some fleshing out and was originally meant to fight storm djinn. Actually, because I'm in the mood, I'll try to write a shortish post about that. Right now. In one session!

Has anyone missed the glorious bastard?

Belvast invented board games.

And, Belvast would probably make a pendant that lets someone connect a single door to anywhere else they want it to go once a day. D&D style.

Ah, Zephyrion. I have missed him a bit. When will we hear of the happenings on his new planet?

While I think the legacy question has popped up a few times already, and is actively being explored by several stories anyway, I'll take a spare moment to meddle with that other question.

It's unlikely that Jvan would create an artefact to pass on power if it was at all possible to add that same power to the individual's body itself. Even if a transfer needed to occur, she'd design it into a symbiote, or parasite. Despite this, she- or, more accurately, Chiral Phi- has actually done this.

Time for a little exposition on halos!

A halo is a structure made of durable semiorganic Fae metal. Like a virus, it is not alive, and is inert on its own. However, it activates when integrated with a Sculptor's telepathic signals, and draws energy required to levitate and function from their blood sugar. Some actually fuse with the Sculptor to make the transfer easier. Old Walker has one such halo in their neck.

What a halo actually is is a one-way teleportation device. The hollows and gaps in the structure frame a spacial rift that yearns to be filled- Surrounding air is constantly teleporting into the halo and escaping through the hollows. The portal 'suction', however, can be focused by the Sculptor, and naturally homes in on nearby regions of high energy- That is, warm, rapidly moving, or magically charged fluids.

This means that the non-solid, powerful body of a Djinni, Realta, change-eater, or lich(?) within range can be drained away from them and into the hollow halo by a Sculptor; said fluid rapidly and continuously escapes the device to be chilled and depressurised by faeries. Solids are typically too low-energy to be accurately focused on, and would clog the halo's vents, so it's an inaccurate single-use weapon at best against solid creatures. Otherwise, the siphoning process is not instant, but it is fast and quite painful. Souls cannot pass through the rift.

So from a narrative perspective, it fills the offensive niche faeries occupy defensively- if one does want to fight a Sculptor, they need to do it by hand, with a corporeal body, like a man.

Why does Phi have a stake in protecting mortals? We'll find out soon enough.

I made good progress on a collab surrounding that and the creation of OldmanWong's demigod, but now the guy seems to have disappeared >.>

I'll have to rewrite the thing and either slash the demigod from it or just leave that in and control the character myself. In either case, I haven't really touched that post in weeks because I've been struggling with it and because it will come chronologically after the super-collab I've got with Kho anyways.

I'll quote George R. R. Martin and say: "At this point, who the hell knows."

I mean, Ilunabar took Jewelry port so it's clear what her artifacts are. Powers vary, but are mostly related to illusion and becoming savvy-fashionable.
