Title: "Supernatural Level"
Post by: Ragnar the Red on March 15, 2012, 05:33:33 PM
It seems that you can get by with great supernatural powers, and never any magic. We have psychic force, chaos, and now biological energy manipulation. In character requests, should magic level be expanded to something that encompasses more than magic?

and now biological energy manipulation

Not yet we don't.

Thats besides the point, really. I think Nik has a good idea here.

Nobody else feels that this breaks the system. Staff vote says approved.
It got accepted.

Actually the staff vote now says different and even if it didn't it's still broken and we're STILL debating it. So I'll suggest you AGAIN stop backseat modding.

Backseat modding is encouraged here; at least the way you think of it is. I mean, what do you think the Suggestion Box is for anyways?

Yes, Nik, you're correct. And while this idea is good in principal, there are other flaws in the request system we need to address as well. Good suggestion, we will take it into consideration in our discussions.

Should manipulation of spirit energy be added to the list?

No because that's a last resort power -.-.

So might be magic in some character's situations. Perhaps the ability to use spiritual energy should be added to template.

For what? It can't be limited with levels as it's already limited. There is no "capable of producing more or knowing more skill with spirit energy." Everyone has the same amount to produce, use, and if they go over the limit permanently kill themselves... There's nothing to level.

Not leveling per se but perhaps, the ability to use it at all.

...Anyone with a god damn spirit can use it. It's a last resort!

Fine, then, Hikaru, the knowledge of how to use it. Because, last I checked, most people DONT have that. Otherwise you would'nt have made such a fuss over a similar technique being used, as I remember correctly.

You don't get what I'm saying Hik. Say we had a supernatural level, then knowledge on how to use spirit energy would really up a good mage's level because it would unhinder them in AM fields and the like. Without magic, it would still be an added bonus, something you wouldn't just say N/A to.

...What? People already have spirit energy though. It's not something someone has to put in a damn profile. You're systemizing everything.
Title: Re: "Supernatural Level"
Post by: Ragnar the Red on March 17, 2012, 10:50:57 PM
Again, not what I'm saying. You can't just use it if you don't know how, so on your request, you'd have to say they know how.

The spirit bomb? Lol okay I'm sorry for trolling. I would have too agree with the whole idea of if you don't know how to use it then you can't. But it could pretty much be something easy to use if you wanted to go down that route. In that if it is easy to preform then it would be easy to learn. Using spirit energy with no training is dangerous. I mean taking energy from your spirit, what if you accidentally drew out your spirit or something of that sort? It should probably be a trained trait unless you can explain there are no abilities to make mishaps with it.
