[quote=Enalais] Nice to meet you, I'm Enalais and i will be slaying you today... [/quote] Excellent, I just need you to sign some papers....legal stuff you understand. *pulls out a stack of papers.* Sign here...and here...and oh here... [quote=Titanic] What do you think of a race of big googly eyed cats having lived next to the darkness for decades? They are going to be beggars for a while so it might come in handy.Edit: Yuwanite here I come! Screw Justinianism [/quote] Yes, I heard you wanted a faction that used to occupy the center? An interesting idea, and means your faction was the first to encounter the Darthlukian. I might even have my first post take place during the awakening, I.E the event that brought forth the "Darkness." I'll be calling it the Cataclysm, was going to use the Doom...but realized that sounds like a large event from a popular series of novels. >.> [quote=The Captain]Now here's the rub. I want to introduce a magical material, one that's inspired, no, wait, wholesale ripped from Pathfinder and D&D, that's a product of the elfish hot springs. The theory was that the trees of the region, warped by mysterious enchantments, suck up minerals from the geothermally heated waters in the soil. The trees that die can be chopped down and the metal that collected in their trunks can be gathered, treated, and smelted into 'living steel'. Living steel would be a vaguely green, glimmering metal that can grow back into the shape it was forged into. You know, essentially regenerative steel for weapons and the like. Weapons forged of the steel would be family heirlooms, many of them hundreds of years old, all bereft of nicks and scratches.Really, it'd be more fluff than some sort of min-max gameplay mechanic considering how slowly that stuff would probably reform. No clutch, critical reshaping of a sword in a pivotal duel or anything. [/quote] You know this is very similar to the "living Weapons" the Darthlukian created and use. Only they don't use steel or trees, but are forged from flesh and blood and from an almost symbiotic relationship with the wielder.
