@Enkryption: We do have one heavy-on-the-destruction mage already.

Out of curiosity are there any races playable that have non-human faces as an option? like are there more monstrous varieties of naga?

@Lucidnonsense: No, there's not.

Are Classes FCFS, then? If not, would two Destruction Mages really be a problem?

@Enkryption: No, but generally-speaking I do try to make sure there's a decent amount of variety in the cast in terms of abilities.

@VitaVitaAR

I see. Well, I'll mull over some options. Admittedly, even with the inclusion of a thumb, a Harpy is still short on choice, since they aren't conducive to much without, at least, two fingers, as the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle have taught us. Apologies for being difficult; trying not to fall back in a normal, human character.

Unfortunately, a lot of my inspiration went into my Nem.

Never liked playing the healer, but, perhaps, a Cleric would serve? Possibly, an Undead Hunter?

Well, Fire Emblem inspired ideas are certainly appealing to me, sure as sure, so consider me interested in the idea.

@Enkryption: Cleric is a perfectly fine choice.

@Eisenhorn: The OOC is up, and feel free to ask me any questions you need!

Sounds good, I'll hop on over there and start getting a character put together, if any questions come to mind I'll sound off!

@VitaVitaAR

Had a strike of inspiration at work, and thought of a Harpy Ninja that uses Healing Magic to regrow her feathers which she can shoot like kunai and herbal oils to cause debuffs - this at the cost of making it harder to fly, the longer she is involved in combat.

Definitely feels like it utilizes the limited, direct combat potential of a Harpy, and their unique nature as a beast.

@Enkryption: Mmm, a couple things here.

Harpy feathers are pretty ordinary feathers, so I'm not really sure how they'd be useable in that way. I know "shoot feathers as projectiles" isn't exactly uncommon but they're usually more inherently magical entities or the feathers have unique properties, harpies are in most respects in-universe "ordinary" in terms of their physical properties.

Also they're not really beasts per say, aside from being less human(in their wings and legs and all that) then the non-monstrous races. They're actually one of the most commonplace monstrous races since they get employed as couriers.

My justification is Ninja-themed Wind Magic, as far as being able to fire the feathers. Basically, coating the feathers in magic, giving them a rigid form, and cutting edges. Beyond acting as a focus for the magic, they are just normal feathers, unless coated in herbal oils to give them debuffs on hit, like poison or torpor/slow.

I'm very curious, now, about if there would be something to playing her as a Courier, and having her basically serve as the messenger of the temple she learned her magic from in the first place. That would give her a pretty good sense of direction, lay of the land, and, potentially, polyglot skills, as she would find herself in foreign places to delivery and retrieve parcels.
