@Jangel13, Ok. So transfer is possible with proper comprehension but conversion is not possible due to the fact that the energy would have to be reformatted. So, if possible at all it would require a complex mechanism to work the conversion and that would be far beyond what Skrik will be able to construct for quite a while. Understood.

You are in charge so I will accept your decision regarding life transfer. Your world, your rules. However, my own understanding of real world energy transfer between living things contradicts your explanation. In my experience the energy of one living thing is only different from that of another species by a modest amount and the transfer of energy from one to another is both dangerous and relatively easy. But, enough of that. I've expressed my perspective.

As an alternate starting path for magic, since his initial driving force to learn it is a combination of curiosity and a desire to repay the trees for the sap, would gaining the ability to see and analyze magic and life force be a more suitable step? And, if I'm understanding your thinking correctly, while storing fire in an object should be relatively easy it would be far more difficult to store life energy in an inanimate storage medium due to the differing format of the medium. So, Fire could be stored in Glass, Crystal, or other simple structures while the life force of a plant could be stored in a Wooden Staff or other Wooden Item.

Is my understanding correct?

So far your understanding is spot on when we are talking about storing life energy through certain means.

And I understand what your saying about real life transferring of energy isn't complex. However, the fact remains that you are goblins but don't stay that way. You need to consider the fact that your evolving and that changes you down to the cellular level. Hell reuse is practically undead at this point yet he still walks and talks like a person would you say that fire is an adequate way to help him? It's much more complex in this world because your all complex

@Jangel13

I understand. The evolutionary mechanism requires a far more complex physical and energy make-up.

Alright, so what about my thinking on storage mediums and starting points for magic? Storage mediums could function as a prelude heading toward enchantment while manipulating energies could allow something akin to geomancy.

And, as regards healing undead... If life has an element then an undead creature or anything else that is closely aligned with the corresponding death element would likely be better helped with a minor infusion of death element. However, this would be a crude effort and would have to be attempted very... very cautiously. It also might function as a buffing effect instead of a healing one... it all would depend on what the recipient's body did with it.

@Haeo

When referring to your storage mediums you are on the right track. It would work that way but you would simply need to hollow out the vessel your using and plug the hole. It would work favorably.

As for the undead dead thing your on the right track but your a little off on what would require a death element. Think less mechanical and go more religious, after all In a video game isn't a priest a healer?

@Jangel13 Religious? Typically, the undead are depicted as being defiled and opposed to the gods. I'm completely lost as to how to use a religious mentality to heal or support a ghoul. Though, I suppose that Duvelna's more pious followers might be able to restore well-being to her creatures... I'm still unsure how I could approach that from a medicine/medical angle with magic as a supplemental aspect.

Well, I guess it wouldn't be necessary for Skrik to understand something like that just yet. He still doesn't have the basic ability to interact with magic yet and I've built quite the little to-do list for one little goblin.

@Jangel13 Would this area happen to have the proper materials to build a fully/semi-functional forge?

What you don't think a dark priest could do the same as a light priest? They would restore undead and debuff enemies while light badges healed and supported.

@Guy0fV4lor

All except for the heat you would need. However you lack the knowledge to build a proper forge anyways

@Jangel13, Ah... so more like pantheon faction priests rather than the typical distinction between priestly classes and warlocks/necromancers. Gotcha. So a medicine/potion that would work on an undead would have to be both restorative and blessed/enhanced by power from Duvelna.

Alright so from everyone still present tell me your evolution stage and whether or not you are both ready for evolution and will evolve by my next post. I have been gone a while so I need a refresher on who's where


(I am here. Life has taken my time but now I will make myself more available. )

Arch is a hobgoblin, 0 xp, currently fighting the thing that is too hot for his plate.

No he just grew to your size. Now he is bigger then most wolves but you haven't done enough fighting with him to qualify for the alpha title

He will bite your head off for trying. He may be bigger but he needs to be an alpha to be a mount. You need to develop trust with him, a bond as strong as a brother before he will trust you on his back
