So is this still open to newcomers? I might be dipping my toe into a couple of different ponds to see if something is a good fit.

If you have a little more room, I'd be interested in popping in. I've got an idea for a magical char trying to figure out the logic behind the massacres managed to happen, could be a fun time. Prolly on the guild sides.

I have a quick question, why are Dark Shadow members still restricted from "forbidden powers?" Which, themselves, are quite ill-defined. Like I have no idea what Rune Magic is.

Asking primarily because I have an idea for a character that interacts with ghosts/the dead and while that could ostensibly be considered necromancy I don't think it's anything worth banning as I currently envision it.

@Dead Cruiser

The main reason for the ban in forbidden magics is that Aloysius himself is not keen on them. (Though he may be hypocritical there.) He us trying to win over the hearts and minds of the zmsgi to his cause. Most if the forbidden magics are considered taboo, so if he allowed theur use in the DS it woukd only strengthen the popular opinion of the Magi to have them destroyed.

Forbidden msfuc includes Necromancy, Blood Magic, Poession Magic and chronomagic.Rune Magic us a little but more complicated. Rune magic involves drawing a symbol upon a surface using magic infused energy, usually drawn frkn the casters soul. These runes, depending on what was drawn can have varying effects, from harmless to outright lethal. Ontop if this, Runes tend to degrade the soul if the user, shortening theur lifespan with each use. Given the lack of Magi alive anyway, losing done to Rubemsgic could be problematic.

Therefore Rune Magic is mostly taboo. The only really exception is the use of defensive runes to fortify locations etc. This is down to the fact that defensive runes are less soul intensive and the would can recover from them. Offensive runes deal alot damage to the soul and in some cases are even irreparable.

As for your suggestion with ghosts and dead interaction: The walking dead is a thing that doesn't exist. That kind of necromancy hasnt been seen in a long time and Salem and Al are both in agreement the would want to keep it that way. As for ghosts it is indeed possible for the soul to stay behind after death. Normally they pass onto the afterlife completely of their own accord. Occasionally they have to be pushed. But someone could interact with them. (I don't want to say anything else as we start getting into spoiler region)

I hope that has helped you somewhat.

Kind of. Here's my concept then: a character who can manipulate ectoplasm, the ethereal psuedo-matter left behind as a resonance of death. As a result he has powers that resemble necromancy but aren't truly, and is cast out of "decent" magical society and has taken refuge with Dark Shadow.

I'm here to say I'm officially withdrawing my interest in this RP. It looks great, but I don't think I could really give it the attention it deserves to contribute to the RP. Good luck!

@sassy1085, @Ezmeralda - Both sheets look good to me.

@Dead Cruiser I'd have to have more info on the power to outright approve or veto. Like... what does said character do with the ectoplasm?

Lots of weird stuff. He can infuse it into himself or into things around him as a power boost or to control it, he can make auras around himself or in an area from it, or just use it to attack or curse someone. Different deaths create different ectoplasm, which change his powers to have a variety of strange effects. For instance, an attack using Cold Wind ectoplasm, harvested from a death from exposure or a sky burial, is an icy attack that can inflict frostbite.

I'll wait on Hedge, but I'm leaning more towards no.

Not because it isn't a great idea - it is. It's amazing, actually.

But going from the last bit, depending on what sort of death he uses for fuel, he can sort of use any power? Death by fire would be a fire attack, so on, so forth?

@HaleyTheRandom Eh, not exactly. His powers are set, but they're very diverse. There are a set number of specific types of ectoplasm (10 to be specific), and he won't have access to all of them at any given time. And their effects are not as straightforward as you might think. Pyre Flame ectoplasm does produce a fire attack, but unless he has access to a lot of ectoplasm the flames are only psychosomatic.

If this seems very specific and complex, it's because I've been sitting on this idea for a while.
