Well there's a reason I bookended every sentence with a "shame on you" :P Comedy :D
@Anndgrim
Nullomancy is not the only form of magic and as an old player you should know that well, shame on you.
Under constantly changing conditions the most common denominator will be stored - kill a few thousand people of different races and eventually the only thing in common between them would be the etherial. Or go visit the god of the underworld and win them in a game of poker if you prefer. You should know this. Shame on you.
Sirens and other mythical creatures have their abilities completely unrelated to nullomancy or crystals. the swamp sirens put people to sleep to drown and eat them - you personally captured one and stored her call to use as a debuff on enemies in battle in the last RP. You know this, shame on you.
Yes, just keep it in your pocket in real life and it will charge that rather quickly. Or use any of the siren calls and mental control to instill that emotion and feeling like you know how to do. Shame on you.
and finally you know as well as I do that crystals do not filter out things, compound materials are stored as is. Hence the whole section on purity and isolating the precise thing/element/matter you want stored beforehand. Again Grim, you know this, shame on you.

@Kidd you up for posting? We're all kinda waiting here~
@babbysama Sadly summoning semi-conscious creatures such as elemntals is one thing i've expressely forbidden - it doesn't work within nullomantic rules. Not unless you've somehow managed to store someone's soul to use as a driving mechanism and got excpetionally good at anchoring. If you wanted to play support there are a myriad of other options - gasses, illusions, battle chants - you can play a full fledged bard with real effect on people with the most basic of siren charges (the old group managed to get their hands on a siren call within the first 10 posts)
if you read the linked advanced nullomancy training you can see Arbos using construction and linking techniques to instantaneously make and shift between mechanical limbs, pneumatic weapons and full fledged artillery. Think outside the box. Absolutely anything is possible through nullomancy, the question lies only in how much of a master class you'd have to be in order to pull it off. Like making an elemental - if i had to have Arbos makes one, i would have him get the crystal dagger of K'tal - a mass murderer who killed countless people in an attempt to store a person's soul, use it to steal a soul of an animal, combine it with a few empty crystals and his blood to make a bloodlink core, then channel a stone skeleton around the core, fill it with fire and anchor that fire to the core, then use the commanding call of a high siren to awaken the soul and assume control, while using infection technique to feed the familiar necessary energy for upkeep.
And there i'd have my elemental familiar. The only problem is - it's be a game long quest to travel the world and gather the artifacts and charges necessary to pull it off. :) So think in these terms - set yourself a goal, and that will be your motivation to keep moving :D Go big! Say you want to be able to create and pilot a giant robot the size of a sky scraper - and chances are with Arbos' guidance - come the end of teh game you'll be doing just that. Think big. Don't rush. Have fun.

@babbysama Don't rush. I'd say at the rate it usually take to fill people in we wouldn't manage to start this week anyway. Take your time, read the OOC and the old rp carefully (at least the parts that are linked to) so you can have a better understanding of the works! Perhaps you'd prefer being a construct type nullomancer - that would require a whole different build from say, a high mobility blade summoner build Don't rush :)
@babbysama yes, since at the start of the game you'll have limited amount of crystals (you start with a max of 20, it will rise as we go along) so getting caught with your crystals still recharging is a possibility. And yes there are nullomantic weapons - AKA specific weapons designed to be used by nullomancers and augment nullomancy. The most basic example would be a marshal's staff - an iron staff with a mechanism that draws a small amount of blood from the user - thus allowing the staff to count as part of the body and extending the control range as well as releasing contact-only charges from the weapon instead of, say, from your hand) Yes, starting areas are up to you pretty much entirely, i will only request corrections if it's something heavily contradictory (such as saying you come from a desert in Karudun for example - since that is an imperial continent that is almost entirely urbanized)
Yes summoning weapons is one of the most basic things to do. In introductory post you will see a few NPC's running in a 'living' armour which shifts and expands through nullomancy, instead of requiring gaps and joints for movement.
@FantasyChic Nice!
@Exit For what it's worth that RP was some of my favourite writing done in a looong time, so it should be an easy read.

You just want to talk about them some more... ;)
They're the part people always struggle with Love! I have a feeling half the people who signed up in the first thread didn't even LOOK at them! I mean i COULD have Arbos spoon feed them every charge and possibility IC, but it just wouldn't be as fun as coming up with your own unique spin on things :)
Read through the IC. Very exciting stuff with some potential for creative use of the magic system... of which I probably don't understand at all. I still have to read through the OOC but I have an early start tomorrow so it'll have to wait till then.
But yeah... undying interest placed here for all to see. Looking forward to this.
IC? You mean the old rp? cause if you read all that then i must honestly take my hat off to you!
@babbysama I haven't heard from at least 3 of the people in over two weeks, so sure! Had any issues wrapping your head around crystal mechanics?
