[OOC] The Relics (No Plot/Fantasy/Character Driven/Worthy of Skepticism)

[WilsonTurner]

And what do Priests do if they find someone using a relic? WIth powers? Do they try to kill him, or just take the relic and lock them up, or what?

I feel like my Relic and its powers are like, below some others. Cause mine only does things with Lightning, and other peoples has, like Sep, two or so that aren't exactly related. Fire and stone. Of course, a powerful enough bolt can both crack stone and create a fire, and lightning moves in microseconds, so I have an advantage there. If I fire a bolt of lightning, I suppose the chances of dodging are very very low, where I'd have to miss on purpose, while if you fire a fireball, I could still dodge out of the way.Could I just go with my gauntlets having more power to use/unlimited? Cause I don't really see anything on anyone else's that says that they only have so much energy for so much time before the relic must rest...

I always felt like Fire and Stone were good related powers with the whole Magma and Lava scene.

Ok, I'll catch up with the IC before making a post.

Well my relic only enhances my fighting skills, with the dagger... And Lucia her relic creates and controls crystal... And Kareth's relic allows him to move much faster, but drains his stamina so badly that he has to rest after a few minutes (if I read that correctly)... Yeah some relics are really powerful, but most still have a lot of room to grow in strength and can develop extra abilities later on. So I don't think that your relic is far behind or anything :p

IF ANYONE WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY MYTH JUST APPROACHED A RANDOM PERSON AND AGREED WITH HIM:

The only reason Starrys is so powerfull is that i wanted you guys to team up to fight him.

Agreed! Since he's currently the only real villain, he has all rights to be powerful.

Weeell... I don't particularly appreciate having a villain that's overpowered either.
And being the only 'villain' doesn't particularly excuse it. He needs to be assailable by one person; if he can only be killed by multiple people, it's a little overpowered. Furthermore, this role-play's only getting started. We have to vouch for future characters with different alignments, different ethics, not just 'good' and 'evil'. The world isn't black and white, and I highly doubt Starry's going to be the only antagonistically inclined character in the story.

Does he outright kill Evokers, or does he just follow them and assassinate them to keep quiet, or what?

He wont kill people in public places, or attack them in churches,
But his ultimate goal is for any evoker he knows about will be killed.

Thats fair
I just built him to be a main villian of sorts, not jsut an enemy, so i didnt want him to be killed easily. That being said, his power isnt that overpowered. He does have a limted range and i think you missed the whole discussion on what his weakness is

what does burning Mystra do, anyways?

[Guilty Spark]

Lets not try for any "good and evil" archetypes here, like raven said it's not black and white. I think your character(s) should have a personality beyond "I am a villain, so I must do this."

That being said, id be fine with other people being villians.

No, it doesn't. No one is limited in one they can do by what you're defining as a villain.
