[quote=@Fallenreaper] I think, in a slight way where a person is born and their loyalties might affect how they are treated in the other nations which is a type of racism. Most cause there's so many different types of humans that from my understanding, like in Kalesia, skin color is less of an issue compared to where you come from or what you practice. That if that was an important thing, then it could limit pictures used for PCS in my opinion as well as ideas. Though I can't image any of the nations naturally looking at [i]everyone[/i] in a pleasant light. The closest would likely be Kalesia, though if someone's lazy and gains without earning anything by themselves than I can see most Kalesians frowning and becoming prejudice towards individuals rather than the whole. This makes it a changeable factor in some ways if the PC chooses to. I doubt it really as Evokers, unless their change is like Angie's where it occurs over time, look like any common human. That's why Idris has so much trouble seeking out and eliminating them, else it would've been impossible for anyone to hide from them. Though some nations might jump to the conclusion that s/he is an Evoker due to the circumstances which is common on our own history really. You'll have to tell the Gms, namely to help with balancing and such. Though that also makes it harder for anyone to help you completely with ideas and such unless you let them in on the secret, namely as it's easier to keep smaller secrets like hidden connections, relations, etc than powers. I wouldn't mind a Werewolf, as I find mimic being a serious form of flattery as someone liked what I did and chose to put their own twist on it, though that would've made 3 already. Variety is the spice of life really though currently if this keeps up, we're likely to have a wolf pack on our hands. XD My advice, finish Luitguard and rp with her for a while rather than making a half a dozen PCs. Mainly we don't want you to risk getting overwhelmed with characters or worse, should RL creep up on you and life becomes busy than you might end holding up others without meaning to. I know cause I've seen and had it happen to me before. :p Though you could still write out the ideas, have the Gms look them over, and slowly intro them into the rp as time goes on like a side project. I can see that being possible, save the clockwork bit, else it would be more like Steampunk rather than fantasy medieval. Mainly I think it would take less energy to focus on 'animating' something small instead of creating a golem completely from scratch and give you some wiggle room. Though it shouldn't be of sentient intelligence but rather requiring commands, simple ones that are about 4 words max. I suggest starting off with something small, taking less power to recharge, and could be 'turned off and on'. Maybe a small doll or ball could've been the Relic and could be animated as well used as the combative/defensive weapon? A ball might seem harmless, but having something whizzing among your feet, trying to trip you, smacking you in the shins, etc is very distracting when you're trying to catch/kill Evokers. As time goes on, the ball/toy could possibly gain new skills like maybe transforming into more offensive form though keep in mind the more drastic, the more energy needed for it. I would guess something along the lines of size changing into a crushing boulder like thing would take quite a bit of fuel compared to developing wooden spikes on the surface at will. Roan's claws can cut through basic armor so he could easily rip out its heart in a way. If heated and cooled rapidly it would also weaken the integrity of the metal depending on what it is and making it easier to damage it. However, for normal NPCs who aren't equipped to dealing with Evokers, or Evokers without any established abilities to combat it, it would impossible to beat unless they killed the Evoker. There's jewels and gems, which are classed as crystals in a way. In addition there could've been an Evoker who created a crystal material which could've saved your PC time and energy, but I still think the small animated object would've worked best. In addition shaping the golems would take massive energy as Ellri pointed out, both in creating, animating, and retaining its 'life'. That's just my thoughts but might want to check with Ellri if it's possible though before having your heart set on it. Also, Ellri don't eat me. :P [/quote] [quote=@Ellri] We kinda forgot to cover the racism bit yesterday... Racism isn't all that much of a problem, thats more of a newer issue. For the most part, those who have any racial differences tend to reside in the same places, and as such that issue is generally replaced by nationalism and cultural bias. (rather than black hate white, you have Kalnachi hating Kalesians) We're going to agree with [@Fallen] on the bit about finishing one PC and playing with that for a while before crafting a full cast of others.
