To be fair, I did consult you. And let you know I was going to make an Alternate Merlin, mostly because I wasn't sure how how long you'd stay active over here. The Demon Invasion thing though I honestly don't know enough of what you established before hand to make an opinion either way, nor do I think the guy who started the whole thing even knew you made Lore for things in the first place, So it just kinda happened. Still I am glad you're back mainly as you did create most of the foundations prior which I am using. Although there will be some differences as you said the Arcane Stream is the magical energy that lies between dimensional planes as a sort of “distortion” created. If kept unmonitored or uncontained it can cause massive rifts where a demon or eldritch horror can just walk out of their world and into ours.

Hence why I said “barely consulted” and while I felt I had no right telling you no, I felt like it wasn’t even within my power to decline the idea entirely. I mean I’m collaborative and easy to work with, but it seemed like a lot of the framework I was leading up to was shelved. And I barely remember who Nite said did the demon invasion— all I know is when I came back is that it happened (as well as my neighborhood being renovated and gentrified Lex Luthor style which put a nail in everything I wanted to tell with Marcus). It was annoying and saddening, but it happened.

Do you think I could retcon Marcus being involved in the Demon Invasion in some way when Season 2 starts up?

Still this is why I'm thinking of creating a Thread or GDoc like this, so everyone can have a say in how things work and we all know where to reference things. I'm not saying we should have super detailed systems in place, like for X magic to work you need Y of this and X amount of prep time and it's only effective on certain enemy types. But general rules and whatnot.

@VATROU

I don’t disagree.

You understand why I was livid and stopped writing for the RP considering what I came back to (Demon Invasion, Alternate Universe versions of my characters, etc). I mean I see that I was a bit unfounded in some aspects, but I hope no one holds it against me that I felt like “what is the point when my stuff is ignored or retconned and I’m barely consulted”.

But yes, the only thing in development I want really “pseudo-GM” control of is how The Arcane Stream works and so forth. It’d be better for me to feel confident in mattering to this universe with Marcus’ lore instead of how I felt before (despite leaving/hiatus) where what I was working on was ignored and set aside. It killed my original interest in the RP, so I’d like to keep myself motivated.

I posted in your sub-thread, anyway.

A Gilded Throne- The Shadow Looms (Recruiting)

Glad to be a part of the RP!

Is there an ETA on the first IC?

@VoiD

I think we are waiting to have most of our old/new blood settled -- as well as solving any issues that come up during this period.

So long as I can have my way with the LorneCorp/Ex-LorneCorp facility.

@Sep

I'll workshop with you in a PM later. After I get a Lady CS down though.

@Gowi LorneCorp doesn't need to be as big as LexCorp and it more or less failed after the flight did.

They also don't need to survive long.

@Sep

Maybe my CEO could do a corporate takeover/buyout?

I have a major Luthor-type corporation in Grant City as is and I haven’t even got to establish Grant much yet to introduce it. But let me ready Khonsu's CS to see if I can figure something out. :F

Grant City is also still in a “superhero year one” so having too much hero immigration might be a bit out there. I’m in the process of making sheets for two more Grant City important characters, and I’m cool with working with others but we should understand each other’s framework.
