@Rune_AlchemistShapeshifting their bodies might be something of like an innate ability but perhaps needs training and or magic to sustain it for a lengthy amount of time or give some extra solidity. I'm imagining that for everyday purposes they might make like an arm with digits for fine motor tasks.
@AnimusOozelings do whatever the hell they want. The guild is not the only one but it is the biggest and shiniest one. The guild of the PC's is a sufficient size to warrant all those facilities, but the PC's are naturally, going to be working together in a team.
Adventures are mainly involving doing something on the surface although perhaps something on the islands above, but my intention in is that below is where the action is and islands are for more "quieter" scenes.
No, because I hate having to come with lore that doesn't immediately matter and making blocks of fluff. However, there will be degree of setting info given away in the IC.
Probably not. Rp already suffers from players flaking out and discord only seems to provide a bigger temptation to turn a rp group into a casual chat group.
