So its like some fairytale quest?
This will be interesting.

@Darlit Glitch

That's an interesting way of describing it. Never heard that before.

There are fewer nodes in it than there truly are. Perhaps in isolated cases, but overarching statements are rarely accurate.

@Techspert

Nodes? Nodes in what? I'm lost.

Update: Host images on the Guild

I just deployed the start of a simple image-upload system so that you can host your roleplay-related images on the Guild instead of hosting them offsite. The benefit of hosting images on the Guild is that the images will stick around as long as your roleplays, and features can evolve from it like an image-album system and a comment system.

You'll notice a new "Images" tab on everyone's profile.



Here's my page: roleplayerguild.com/users/mahz/images

Planned features:

- Organize images into albums
- Delete and edit images/albums
- Mark images/albums as private (so only you can see them)
- Comments

The system needs more work, but it's usable.

@Mahz

Is it planned that one will be able to share an album between multiple accounts, so that all can edit it?

Your views of Existence.

@Techspert

How so?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Efficacy>

I disagree with you.

@Techspert

Concerning?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Efficacy>

Still kinda lost, but lets keep moving forward.
So what do we need to do first?

@Darlit Glitch

We have to be trained by the Master Scribe for each Commandment. However, they each have a special test that anyone what wants to use their Commandment must pass, with one guideline that acts as the ultimate theme behind the test. In addition, I have no idea where any of these tests are, so our first step is to find them. Somehow.

Mm. I would not personally fight with this most obvious method, as she is clearly prepared for it. I estimate a seventy six point eight percent chance of loss.

@Techspert

This is the only way to cancel her out. The Realmatic properties of two different Generations, if brought into opposition, immediately cancel each other out. Once we start, the only way Tamerlaine can stop it is to kill us--but because she will be left only with her immense magical pool, and we all will still have our normal powers besides the Commandments, we'll just have to beat her like a normal villain and not get killed. Judging by your track record so far, then you have a chance to do that.

<Snipped quote by Efficacy>

And that's where ya lost me.

@Darlit Glitch

Let me explain quickly how the Commandments work--Scribes layer theoretical realities with different laws on top of the true reality and infuse reality with those properties. Realmatic knowledge is the knowledge concerning these laws. Realmatic properties are facets of a person's existence and magic power which allow them to communicate with reality in that way.

<Snipped quote by Efficacy>

Your terminology is incorrect, but the concept is easy to understand.

@Techspert

I'm sure. The Master Scribes could probably say it better than I.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Efficacy>

No, it makes some sense, but how do we go about awakening and strengthening our ability to use this magic?

@Darlit Glitch

Our abilities must be created in us by someone who can already use each magic. First, we are to be infused with the Realmatic knowledge and properties required for our Commandments, and then we'll be provided with the ability to use our existing magic power Realmatically. Then we'll be trained in our Commandments. I'll be training with you, since as a Framer, I need to learn all seven, as well.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Efficacy>

I am understanding now. We are gaining higher priority because we each have a single Commandment as well as being aoart of a new Generation.

@Zeal

Close. That you have a single Commandment technically doesn't matter--if someone had three strong Commandments, they could theoretically cancel out three others. And those who do the cancelling are cancelled themselves. The situation would be again impossible if I didn't have the Realmatic properties of a Framer--Tamerlaine as a Framer has the highest priority against other Generations, but because I'm a Framer as well, I can transfer those Realmatic properties to the rest of you. That way, our priorities cancel out. Sorry if that was confusing.
