[The End is Nigh] Abstract Thought

[Myllinnia]

Am I the only one that thinks that it sucks that the Alchiemicals can't start with their version of sorcery at character generation? Everyone else can get at least the Terrestrial level, but you have to get to Essence 4 to get the Man-Machine Protocols, and you are restricted to a max of Essence 3 at start up.

Ya I'm a little unhappy with that, despite Dev's talk on how Man-Machine Protocols sit between the three normal circles in relation to each's strength. How this came about I cannot say there are some rather cool and powerful God-Machine ones but some of their restrictions are tough.

 

[MrSerious]

Most of the useful spells also require high Clarity.

 

[WarDragon]

Hmmm. And I was thinking of making an Alchemical for my alt. Looks like it'd be tricky now... maybe a Lunar instead.

 

[Sherwood]

I find that the hardest thing to keep up with on an Alchie is the modular Charms and how you can switch them out for a set of reserve Charms. Other than that, and they work just fine for me.

 

[Thief of Words]

Is it a bad thing that I'm tempted to write up a Cecelynian Slayer based on the Librarian from Discworld?

 

[MrSerious]

Remind me are Merits & Flaws allowed or not allowed?

 

[Myllinnia]

I believe they were not allowed.

 

[MrSerious]

Are you going to post in the Alchie thread, Myl?

 

[Myllinnia]

Soon, nod nod very soon.

 

[Thief of Words]

I wish.

 

[Sherwood]

We are Exalted! We don't need no stinkin' Merits or Flaws! We're better than that!

Sez you. Building up an ex-godblood without access to the background that gives you points for mutations is really expensive. O.o

That just means that when you are a awesome, Creation-shattering being of incredible power, your victory will be that much sweeter for having worked your way up.

I know, but it still feels weird that I'm gonna have to spend xp to pay for stuff she was born with. >.<

 

[Thief of Words]

As entirely unrelated note, I love the weird jumps Pandora does sometimes. Like Johnny Cash showing up on Gorillaz radio.


EDIT: speaking of music, am I the only one who could see this being a theme song of the Moonshadow caste:

So would te abyssals like a 16 year old Day caste who's weapons are named Mother and Father?

 

[Myllinnia]

Creepy. xD I was tempted to re-create Trinity, a Midnight who really had an issue with being a killing machine, she also had issue with the sensations of being out there during the day in Creation. Still tempted. Just not sure if I should. ><

Does he/she yell out or call her attacks like "Parental Discipline", "Daddy Issues" or "Motherly Love"?

 

[Sherwood]

"Lizzie Borden took an axe, gave her Mother forty whacks! When she saw what she had done, she gave her Father forty one!"

[Thief of Words]

Join us! You wouldn't be the only (planned) parenticide in the group. >.> <.< >.>

 

[Thief of Words]

Any chance we can get some of those new Abyssals in the Abby thread, so we can get moving with it?

We will start reviewing characters shortly.

 

[Lord-Leafar]

Btw, I would totally welcome your little day caste into the abyssal thread, we need more!

 

[MrSerious]

Honestly don't know how to respond to the Alchie thread.
