@Letter Bee@The NarratorIt was partially me confusing it with the numbered system and also experience saying mind control can be a bit game breaking and not-fun for everyone else. Suggestion is generally more balanced and (hopefully) up to the receiving player's judgement as to whether it works. However generally if someone start resisting the suggestion EVERY time I'll probably say something about it.
@RexSeems a bit more on the modern side for this particular rp. Think more steam punk if you'd like to have something technologically advanced beyond the times, but aside from that you can have two more exceptional skills and you'll be fine. Unless letter bee takes issue with a character not being born with magic :V
@StitchesIt's kinda strange, no one ever likes to go for people that aren't freeing all the slaves for whatever reason. Aside from the GMPC i'm still writing up, no we don't actually have anyone that owns slaves.
@Claw2k11Seeing as how slavery has kind of always been a part of human society and has really only recently been mostly abolished, and even then we're all still slaves of a different kind now-a-days anyway, I'd say that slavery's likely been around since the dawn of civillization in one way or another. Though final say is up to
@Letter Bee. As for being a relative of the empire, I'd reccomend against it being something like a nucleic member (brother, sister, father, mother, son, or daughter) as generally something that close is a bit lore-integral for most rps, however again letter Bee still gets final say on it. Generally nobles are relatives of the main royal line so an uncle or something is likely to be a duke while a close cousin's like to be a baron and so on and so forth. Generally if you are of noble blood from that region, you'll be related to him.
