You can start with only one monster to summon. If it takes too much damage in combat you will feel exhausted and wouldn't be able to summon it again soon. The beast shares attribute with you. As you grow more powerful you can either improve the monster you already have or gain more monsters.


Is it possible to start with the ability to summon two weaker than average monsters to summon? I had an idea for a character who has two familiars that act as scouts more than actual summons to face in combat.

Yeah, sure.

The most important thing is to clearly state how much and what kind of summons you have. Rule of thumb is that the more summons you have the less powerful will they be individually. You can even have a summon that is like a swarm of rats where each rat is weak but the whole group is dangerous. @zellected's is too open and thus difficult to balance.

Maybe I should have explained it better earlier.

I have two character concepts in mind. One is a one-eyed master of strategy who has two raven familiars each with a different utility-based ability (You can guess what his name is, by the way). The other is an ambitious young man who has a sort of limited emotion manipulation ability, being able to motivate others easily to complete a goal with his words.

@zellected I didn't explain it well before, but what I want you is to completely redo your Gift description.

Make it clearly state:
What you are summoning (name, physical characteristics).
What its capabilities are.
How many of them you can summon at the same time.

Yes, you can summon more than one creature at level 1 but only 1 creature summon will have a real, tangible combat presence. Anything more is a distraction and more than 2 or 3 will have the endurance of Naruto clones. More than 10 will be just a smoke screen, too weak to even hurt the enemy.

To make an example, here's how I would redo your gift (you don't need to copy this, it's just an example):


Or you can start with one powerful demon and add more with time. Or have one demon and keep buffing him. It's your choice, just be clear on what your power does.

Name: Thames
Age: 14
Gender: Male

Background: At the start of his life, Thames could not remember the reassuring touch of his mother or father not could he remember any warm words spoken by them. From the beginning, all that Thames could remember hearing was an incessant ticking at the back of his head. Indeed, Thames was born among machinery and raised by clockwork constructs which fed, bathed, and clothed him until he was old enough to do these things himself and the constructs had eventually broke down when Thames was aged eight. At that year, he didn't have the ability to fix these machines, almost starving to death until being taken in by an orphanage where he lived the rest of his life. There, Thames worked on building machines, tinkering with watches in order to practice until he could work on larger machinery. At the age of ten, Thames manifested his abilities, though were unsure exactly of how to use them, simply because they appeared weak and their effects were subtle at best. When he finally realized what he was doing, he was fourteen.

Equipment: Apart from his clothing, Thames also carries around a pocket watch, a set of keys to a house which may or may not be torn down, and a watch repair kit.

Level: 1.
Attribute: Fluid
Skills: Machine Repair, History, Perceptiveness
Affinity: Wind
Gift: Thames possesses the power of limited time dilation. At will, everything in an immediate area of Thames experiences time differently from everything else around him. For the most part, he speed up time around himself so that he personally can appear to be moving faster, actually experiencing time at a slower rate than everything around him. He can also slow himself down, making himself experience things faster, giving him more leeway to react to incoming objects. Of course, all of this could be construed simply as super speed and everything in regards to time may be completely made up.

Here is the finished product. What can a say? A boy needs to eat, especially now that he's going through that mondo growth spurt. I swear, this boy is going to be a monster.

@Medjedovic I have posted but it didn't particularly do much for my character, I'm assuming I should do another post to at least nice her into some interaction?

If so I definitely can but I'm busy with exams till Saturday ^^"
