[OOC] Under the Red Sun

[Kimiyosis]

Hm...A three-meter chain may actually count as a large weapon. I mean, don't you need two hands to accurately use something that long?

@Maxx

Probably actually >.> So, just curious, for magic, does the user require a wand/staff?

about two to three meters? Or on the other hand, thin garrote wires, of up to ten meters long instead of the chain?

@Kimiyosis

Ten meters? You are now weilding a knife attached to a piece of metal spagehetti. Good luck controlling that lol

@UrbanEvolution

Weighted knife to throw, wire to whip it back to yourself. Used something similar jury rigged myself. Though it does take practice not to whip it into your own face :D

@Kimiyosis

Certain races require the use of a wand or staff to cast magic. Other than that I believe it's optional. Read up on the magic and race sections for more details.

[UrbanEvolution]

@Kimiyosis I was kidding, you can use it all you want. Just know that that weapon is going to do like, nothing to an armored man with a gun.

Oh dear lord, I've only just noticed what the signature on Honoria's picture says!

@Fat Boy Kyle

I was wondering when you'd notice that lol

@Kimiyosis

(we're building a quote pyramid to the stars) Something tells me that a weapon like that wouldn't be very effective (especially since it has a very limited range and when you got near the end of the ten meters it would begin to slow down) but that's not something I'd deny you for; you do you. Also, certain races require magical artifacts like staffs or wands to use magic, though other races can use such devices to focus it. Note, however, that wands and staffs have no magical power unto themselves; if a Dorak picks up a magic wand he still won't be able to use magic. They're just made to concentrate energy that's already there. @Fat Boy Kyle Yeah I tried to ignore that. I was concerned until i read the rest of the sheet that she was going to be your everyday ordinary MMORPG slut, but I trust that you won't turn her into that.

[SepticGentleman]

Half of Dorakis have never even seen magic in action. They think it's pretty weird from what foreigners say.

[Kimiyosis]

Oh wel, it was just a musing of mine. Granted I've only used it with a five meter length, never ten XD Would there be a Dryad for the air itself? Also, I was planning to use that less as a weapon, and moreso a a utility :3

@Kimiyosis

That really depends. What do you intend?

[sibelius]

@sibelius YOU HAVE BROKEN THE ANCIENT EDICTS OF MATREM BY POSTING IN THE CHARACTER SHEET SECTION WHEN THE BIG FREAKING OBVIOUS RED SIGN SAID THAT YOU CAN'T DO THAT YET! PREPARE TO BE BOINKED BY A JABBERWOCK!

(I'm totally screwing with you. Just read the really big freaking obvious red sign next time, 'kay?)

@Maxx

As much as I have never actually been boinked by a Jabberwock before, I bet it doesn't feel good! ;) Sorry - totally my bad. Hopefully when I'm done with the CS I can edit it and put it there, subject to approval.

[Kimiyosis]

Mostly wanting to play an absent minded Dryad, who basically does just about anything on a complete whim. She's not exactly fit to lead herself, muchless someone else. Thinking off all the different environments/elements, the sky/air/clouds seem to fit the most with that type of personality.

@Kimiyosis

That's not my question. Dryads are magical beings, and their magic normally manifests itself in their element in some way or another. I'm asking what kind of abilities are you intending for her to have? As someone who has managed superpower RPs in the past, and in doing so I have seen people use things ranging from bloodbending to literal death manipulation. Air Manipulation isn't outside of that realm, and there is a plethora of things you can do with it that is a no-go. I just want your input on what kind of capabilities she'll have in her hands so we can sort that out before you spend time making her character.

[Kimiyosis]

Oh, the abilities? Air currents/movements. Basically pushing with air. Whether for herself to suddenly change her directional movement, or for a target to push them away/pull closer. Although useless against bullets, those go at a high enough speed to 'punch' through the current. Thrown weapons can be easily diverted, while bolts/arrows can only have their trajectory altered by a few degrees. Also, if used creatively, creating a downwind from your opponent towards you can make eavesdropping slightly easier, as well as masking your own sound. She can also use it to slightly increase a projectile's range. No, she can not control the air inside a person's lungs, blood, etc. However, having nearby sand/dust blown into someone's eyes is really, really gonna suck. I highly doubt she would think of a tornado or hurricane. She's not that reckless/unpredictable.

[UrbanEvolution]

If you're going with pushing or pulling(?) a person, your Dryad will be capable at creating 60-80mph winds. To push some of the larger characters, over 100mph. Whether or not that is acceptable I'll leave up to you and Maxx. But it's some food for thought.

[Kimiyosis]

Less wind speeds to knock a running person off balance though :3 And how many characters are we allowed?

[SepticGentleman]

@Kimiyosis

As many as you can handle. I've got forty-seven more planned as the game progresses.

@SepticGentleman

Which is more than you can handle bruh. @Kimiyosis There is no Dryad for the air itself, although I could see a Dryad maybe being a cloud or storm spirit. I think a cloud spirit would be interesting, as that would allow you to use a limited (ie not OP) range of wind magic. Make a rough draft of the sheet and then show it to me; I'll see from there. @All: What would you guys think of me making a Beastiary (a short description of some of the mythical creatures/animals of Tithe)? Like, do you think you would use it? The OP is huge as it is, so I don't want to add something that won't be used.

[SepticGentleman]

I can finally tell people about the fourteen types of giant beetles that live in Dorakis.
