It is something I am actually surprised someone hasn't picked up on already.Maybe that is what the Empress' relic does and why it is an Empire?Maybe one could be found later on?It's freeform folks..In Freeform conventional thinking goes out the window, into the garden and it just so happens to be Guy Fawkes night so look they're burning.


My thought was for the Aerii people, or the bird people, to essentially be the more mechanical type. Not totally steam-power, but elevators and goods transports powered by steam. Both handheld-crossbows and towers that fire very large, anti-seige crossbow bolts. The type that would have to be manned by the larger, stronger humans. Think of a less advanced Dwemer from Skyrim. More of just the elevators and gates and crossbows and pipes.

Question I've been wondering for a while, can relics be used in conjunction with another relic on the same Evoker?


Can one evoker use two relics? Or can the effects of two relics be used on one evoker? Could you give me an example.

Anti-siege crossbows? You mean ballista?

I was talking about a people who were essentially half-hawk/falcon, half human that lived in the South-West. Where the mountain range create another valley similar to the one that Amaryth is in, except smaller with a smaller lake. I was thinking more of Aerii being a people that had a main capital city nestled at the base of the mountains [up to the summit of the centermost], with them being more mechanical and architectural due to their position. Most Aerii cities being in the mountain tops, connected by bridges and little landing pads for Aeriians to safely land and take off without fearing to hit someone. Bridges and something similar to trolleys and stuff, hanging from cables, stretching across the distances for the transfer of goods. Elevators of sorts to get up from the floor of the valley up to the summit of the main Aerii capital, and stuff. Maybe crossbows, since regular bows wouldn't be ideal for what I'm thinking of their body structure.

Edit: Aeriians themselves being short, maybe 5 feet tall, with two sets of wings, one on the upper back, one on their lower back, with tufts of feathers that fan out during flight to serve as tail feathers, hunched over a little bit [reducing effectiveness with a bow], with a set of humanoid arms, though they are also a bit shorter than regular human arms. Hollow-boned, feathered. Weak in combat, best if they can find a perch and use an Aeriian crossbow on an enemy, though they can't fire while flying. Incompatible with Relics, obviously.


Ah, interesting but I was thinking of avoiding non-human sentient races.

For example, the mask that all Vocator are trained to use. What if say Ivona was compatible with a ring relic she found that, as I was talking about it anyway, gives her greater intelligence/higher brain functions. Would it work or would it conflict with the mask so fail?

On the topic of tech levels: How about different nations have different technology levels. I figure Lendria and Cerania are lagging a bit since most of their time and money gets spent fighting each other.

That too is entirely plausible. I mean look at the real world different countries developed at different stages.

Amaryth isn't the only city in Othea, the King will try his best to escape even if he has to abandon Amaryth.

Oh, me and Ellri have another surprise for you guys. King better be thinking about changing his view on Evokers after all of this, as they be mighty useful in conflicts.

Losing your Capital will ruin you though, surely he knows that. The Capital is the Kingdom. The Moral blow is enough to destroy you let alone the economy and military strength. Not to mention the fact that right now the Empire are being good guys to the city they are invading.

A) He does use evokers in his military, but he doesn't do it publicly because of foreign pressure from Oragos and the Order of Idris.

B) Well obviously, but a nation without a capital is better than a nation without a King or capital. And Aral Otharion does not have any heirs.

Jes, I was just having a lazy moment and didn't feel like switching my two crossbows into one crossbow and one ballista.

However, would it be ok if they were human? Like a Dwemer, but human?

You mean humanoid Wilson? (Dwemer are elves basically, Just double checking you know that).

Also if you want Wilson and sparks is cool I'd be happy to help you come up with something. I like the steampunk/dwarvy stuff and with the addition of Relics you could tie it in nicely to be a younger Kingdom/Empire/City.

I updated the local map to include other Othean cities/locations you can flee to. And I updated the big map, warning it is even bigger now. Like, twice the size.

@Sep, if you want to work with Wilson on his steampunk kingdom in the south east that'd be good.

@Wilson, but they couldn't fly then.
