I will say this, getting Serena back to her full Godhood will be a three part process.

We've already done the first part, finding Serena's fragmented soul.

Nothing's stopping Serena from breaking the pact (Well, in her current state, the looming fear of eternal damnation is stopping her). Serena's a God, Mateo can't do much to Serena and Serena can negate Mateo's own Death affinity being the all encompassing being of Death and all.

That said, Serena herself said the pact was only temporary anyways.

The path to corruption always started with a pact with Serena.

She can't really negate it though. If she can take away the curse, then sure, but his affinity for death comes from the curse and its actually not in her power to break it just with a flick of her wrist at full power. It's a complicated thing. She can't take away his skillset like that, even if she is a god, especially while he still has the curse. And even then, I plan for some lingering effects of it, since it has been in the bloodline for twelve generations at this point, and Mateo has had it for his whole life and shaped his powers and experiences off of that. She can't take away what he's learned, and what he's ingrained in his brain. He can't fight her, I'll admit to that, and he can't do much about her powers like he can about the Death Knight, but she can't take away his affinity for death.

But I thought the pact is like a binding thing. Because Mateo's helping her get her body back, in return she has to help him break the curse. This is one of those things where I'm not mad at you, I'm mad at the character, which is some great writing on your part. That is a really shitty thing for her to do. She's essentially tricking him because she's not telling him the full truth. She's making it seem like it's a binding thing, and only gave him one little hint that she could completely absolve it and fuck him over. Which he, and really I, looked right past. Honestly, I didn't think a pact could be so easily broken like that, even if it has a god involved in it. Again, it seemed like a binding thing, with each party involved being restricted to actually doing the thing they signed up to do, and severe recompense if they didn't. One of Serena's lines here. "Make a deal with me. I will assist you in finding what it is you seek and, in return, you help me find my Spirit and return my full power to me." Actively tricking Mateo. And if she didn't like him, she'd just screw him over. She did say it was temporary, but still. Man that frustrates me about her, because I really thought she was one of the cool gods.
 
Wow, reading all of that now, Alpha --not the Serana pact stuff, the topic of his healing-- I never realized how strong Mateo actually is and can be. Support wise. Kind of just saw his healing as a little useful trait that would come in handy during battle, but yoo, dude's potential as a healer is immense. I wouldn't even begin to think that the curse could actually amplify it too, if I read that right. I can only imagine how much he'll grow by the end of the Luminosa arc, magically and mentally. (possibly even physically)

And post time-skip Mateo??? My gosh, depending on how the story goes, and what he might go through by that time, he, or his magic, could get crazy freaking powerful.

You're misunderstanding what I said. Yes, I said it's something she COULD do, not something she WILL do. A pact is not something that is binding in the way you think it is. At it's core its a pact, pacts can be broken by either party as is the case in real life as well. It's mutually beneficial for both parties in this case. Serena gets her form back and Mateo gets possibly cured.

Serena really likes Mateo and she would never do him dirty like that, I swear.
 
I intended pacts to work this way even in the first RP too, just never got around to explaining that

Every character has the potential to be ground breaking in their power.

With enough training Rai could probably redirect lightning back at the person who casted it or conjure lightning storms in broad daylight.

Skyla can... well Skyla is already much stronger then before but with her lance, she can revitalize her teammates if she's taken no damage. Her bow only gets stronger the more she learns and master new elements. And her greatsword... well that just exists lol

I know. I was just pointing out Mateo's potential. I had never thought of or realized it till now, seeing the conversations from before. I'm just now finding out about the curse being able to amplify his healing, once again, if i heard that right, and him being the onlyl one as of now able to combat the Death Knight's abilities. It's not something I've ever thought about before.

You have no idea just how strong support and healing actually can be. Mateo's potential, without the curse, is fucking stupid.

If Alpha decides to, Mateo can learn offensive healing spells. Spells that deal damage but also heal too and the Nature element is perfect for such spells.

Offensive healing spell? Like one of those spells that have dual purposes? For example, some of the characters have an ability that boosts something of their allies but negatively impacts an enemy.

Mhmm.

World of Warcraft's Holy Nova is a perfect example. Damages enemies but heals allies caught within the explosion.

In terms of nature, any form of mushroom, root or vine can have Healing/damaging purposes.
 
Oh wait. Belindril, one of the four Elven Saints, has Wild Blossom. Which has damaging spore to enemies and healing spores for allies.
 
But Belindril isn't a dedicated healer like Mateo seems to be, so he doesn't count lol
 
I'm debating in my mind whether or not Belindril is a healer or not xD
 
Kumii said:
No he also has Rejuvenating Touch but thats it. Only those two

Hm. Maybe he wouldn't directly be a healer, since you said he doesn't prioritize it or isn't dedicated, but he just has healing as one of his many capabilities. So he could maybe transition from one thing to a healer and vice versa.

Yeah. The Healer trait he has does boost his healing magic by a reasonable amount though
