@Mirandae Hi, I still exist! I'd like to reserve Ramuh for my Dominant of choice, but I do have a question: In his description its stated his Regalia appears as a man when transformed, could they appear female instead while keeping the rest of the aesthetics the same?
I should've mentioned this I think: the apparent gender of the Dominant doesn't have to match the character. Ramuh is depicted as male in teh Final Fantasy games, but if it's an aesthetic request, I could see to doing a female version, no problem :)
Thinking either Bahamut's "nothingness" domain or Odin's "desolation." I wanna take a superpower culturally perceived as belonging to "good guys" (in my case, healing magic) and have it operate in a mechanically brutal way with a great capacity for cruelty. (I'm basically envisioning a form of time magic, where the subject's physiological and temporal processes can be accelerated or otherwise fucked with so that they are reverted to an unharmed state..... either before they ever got injured at all or long after they've already healed, all in the blink of an eye. Kind of a darker, grittier Crazy Diamond.) Of course, this being basically some kind of "entropy power," she could also rust locked doors off their hinges, hide bodies by withering them to dust (ie. supernaturally advancing their decomposition), etc.
Dunno how "fair" or balanced the powers are gonna have to be in this game so I'm just throwing the concept out there for your quick approval before sinking real time into this ✌️
Either way, very, very cool thread, to which I wish only the best!
Sounds cool! As for fair: I'll post the combat details later, after we've started the in-character. Combat will be split into a "narrative" part and the "fair" part. What you describe can certainly fit both parts if it's a type of healing that reverses the state of something. It does fall into the category of being "cruel" if it also hurts for the person, which is natural, right? Healing is kind of painful.
Regalia are not immune to Dominant effects from others unless there is some magic that makes them immune to a specific thing. There will be some of that in the "fair" game.
I think I will go with Valefor, though I cannot view his pic/info on the OOC for some reason.
I updated the graphic yesterday (for me yesterday), but I reuploaded it now. Refresh and see if you can see it.
Can Regalia use Crystals for magic?
Hm, interesting question. I suppose they technically could, even if they don't need to. Perhaps there would be some kind of conflict with their Dominant if the Crystal is based on a rival Dominant. I'll have to ponder this.
