@Duoya

This is nearly perfect. I'm really, motherfucking, digging this creativity like an oil hunter who gone into fever in the desert. However.

You can't move around stats.

The stats a pantheon, lesser, or essential have more are a matter of their origin and place in divine society at the start. They are not neccesarily reflections of character. The 4 stats points you spend are your characters personal contributions.

A way to think about it is: A character having a low value job wouldn't help his influence. A ghetto living janitor may have great personal attributes but he's not going to find it easy influencing laws and other gods. Pantheon is sort of like middle/upper class, even if you don't neccesarily have attributes that make you have that influence just starting off as being in that class gives some footing that reflect other society members view of you a bit more positively.

@WanderingSpirit

Hmmm, I'll allow the first power. The only caveat is that if someone dosen't want to be seen, or doing something he dosen't want to be seen he can't see it. This is mostly so he can't logically immediately uncover Hidden Events.

But shit, this looks, motherfucking, good to me, my cable comrade.

Shit, how about this. Every day you spend charging up a spell. I'll give you +1 power to its effect with the max being your power stat itself. In this case, 3. That way it's still balanced without rendering you near powerless in most scenarios.

Oh My Gods!

@The Grey Dust

You are all going to get more power as the RP goes on. But it's still early in the age of the world and Essentials are finally getting some help managing the other domains with the first pantheon rising.

Oh My Gods!

@Lord Zee

your power is 4. So you could create large monsters if you wanted to. Think about 15-20 foot tall. Although it would take you hours to do so, especially the more complex they are. Unless you're making weak, limp, featureless blobs most of your creatures are going to take you at least half an hour.

Humanoids if they're pretty simple an hour.

Oh My Gods!

@Spiffy

What I mean, brother is that, while the character is good. So much would change in bringing him over from that RP to this one due to the lore, system, highest court, and ectr. I think he's cooler than an snowman divorce court I can't give a proper feedback on how well it would mesh here.

I suggest you just fill out a sheet and I'll give what advice I can when you got a working CS for this.

@WanderingSpirit

Shit, most of this is fine, sister.

Just two things:

I'm not allowing shared sight or future sight. Primarily because it would be OP in the style of this RP mechanics are. This would be changed to Clairvoyant power: which is in the "word on abilities" section.

Second:

Magic is very large umbrella of abilities. So it can easily game the ability buyer. Since, you basically have a package of them in arcana. It's a bit hard to balance this.

I'm ok with this but it will more or less translate into a mimic power ability: You can only mimic a power you've seen been used: you can't copy clairvoyance, teleporting/portals, PSI, learned skills-like kung fu- or knowledge skills(like math)) nor invisible abilities you can't see being used(like empathy).

Any abilities you mimic you suffer a -3 to power when using them. This is the only way right now I can think to make something as broad as magic work.

Third:

Knowledge of the Cheonicler will translate in having a Knowledge: history. So you are a master of history. Just making it really clear.

In fact:

EVERYONE

Here's a rough power scale so you guys can get a better idea of its in game effects on spells.

Power Scale

Below or equal to 0: This only counts as you still having bough the ability for a point but for some reason your power reach this scale. You are performing whatever it is at a normal mortal capacity: youre fire balls are hand sized orbs.

1: You are on equal with a master in the feild. You'll fling fire balls the size of boulders without effort and start doing things like flamethrower/ or change it shape. It size stays roughly full humanoid. Give or take a few feet.

2 no visible change yet

3: no visible change yet

4: You are now reaching mother nature levels. That fire ball you produced at 1 is something you can conjure as rain in a small radius with little effort. You could easily decimate a village in one smite with your raw hit alone-not including the fallout of the fire spreading- making flame elementals the size of small towers now is possible.

5: No visible change yet.

6: No Visible Change yet.

7: At This point you could easily create a giant tidal wave of flame to crawl across a landscape for hours at a brisk pace. Destroying cities and villages in one tantrum is within your capacity. Nations fear your anger and tremble at your miracles.

8: You can effectivelly cause an assured controlled apocalyse in the area you are focusing on when you perform a miracle. At this point you shouldn't be surprised if you're literally creating small manifestations from your domain in your sleep-like little flame imps- and could easily tear volcanos from the ground.

9: No visible Change

10: You are a true god of your power. You are pretty much an incarnation of it, anything you can think of doing you can do. Make larva form and cool into giant fortresses within hours. Make the earth Vomit larva around half the country. If you struck a miracle now you can be assured that nations civilization is simply not going to recover for hundreds of years...if at all.

Oh My Gods!

@Lord Zee

Shit, I don't see anything wrong with the horned song without a thong, brother. She's in. Move her to the character section.

Oh My Gods!

@Hero

Shit, it's all cool, brother. Did the same on my side of the train too.

Fuck XCOM 2. It cheats but I am it abused lover.

Oh My Gods!

@rush99999

Alright, my baking brother. You can rush that, motherfucking, spectrum of space into the character bar. I'm cooler with its concept than a fridge containing einsteins brain.

@Lord Zee

Less abilities means unspent ability points pass over to power-aka how much raw general power you have- abilities are just avenues they are used. Power applies 99% of the time to your abilities. BUT if there were a scenario where you and another god were in an arm wrestle.

and that god nor you had something logical that makes them win- like super strength- then we'd rely on who has the most power stat to declare who would win that arm wrestle. If there are moments when power would apply to a scenario outside of that, I'd let you know but for the most part, you can rely on this being the standard.

Shit, man. I dig the drug of a motherfucking, creature creator. I'm cool with her powers. I'd like a little more on her appearence. Give me a little spice to this mistress of vice, kindred. But I don't see any issues.

@Spiffy

Conceptually it's all fine, brother. But the large changes between format, set up, and lore in that RP and this one means that trying to cross this guy into this RP will radically change him in a lot of ways.But I'm down the idea of a warrior of the sun. However, he won't gain a Domain until he appeals in the Highest court for it in the first phase.

Oh My Gods!

@Duoya

Shit, sure man. We got loads of seats for gods trying to get into the pantheon or lessers.

Oh My Gods!

@The Grey Dust

Shit, son. Put down the spices, I'm being blown away by all this flavor.

Alright, you got got a good point. I like the motherfucking, apocalyptic concept of animals just stop eating and then everyone starving to death and stuff. That's pretty neat.

I think a little bit of a more overbearing task/curse would fit the role. Maybe every night he has to eat an insane amount. That way it makes sense why he has less time than other gods to prosper his mortal affairs in his role.

Oh My Gods!

@The Grey Dust

I, motherfucking, meld with what you're making, brother. I'll probably accept this but I'm going to give the clock a few dials so others can come in an compete for the Essential spot before I start accepting them.

There are a few issues. An essential keeps the world running and if they died/were stopped it could end that function. Your god will need to have a task that is important to the existence of the universe to run without potentially having an apocalypse.
