I'd think a professional would be a better place to voice your problems and vent for positive reactions, rather than the status bar of an RP forum. But that's just me.

[@neurovoid] That article looks incredibly biased for one agenda. There are various articles that list differences in neural wiring and anatomy. Not to mention hormones from gender-specific organs

@Mae Since I'm noticing you're going by the list in the char tab. Does Floran get to do the RRA (since you're already doing Xena)?
@BlackPanther I actually hadn't paid much attention to the marks of others xD That's pretty cool. I went with a wilting flower motif simply because she's kind of a good god that somewhat fell from grace.
My second character is up.



@Mae I wouldn't mind my own PCs having a relationship in terms of enemies/friends/acquantances, but not really anything love related. I'm not sure if something that selective it possible within the RRA. If not, I'll just say to have no relations between my OCs.
@Mae Also, one important question: Can I be matched with my own character in the RRA? I don't really like the thought of that for love and such at least. Would I have to veto that?
@Mae Bisexual, most likely.
@Mae the chance that I am is 100% :P

It's going to be a female.
@BlackPanther@Melo@Dusksong

@Melo My reasoning for spirits being able to interact with the living as in the more magical eras this would be commonplace, whereas if magic was dwindling (e.g. our modern day setting, for example) the best they could do is push over a jar or make a room cold.

@Dusksong Thankyou so much! That is absolutely perfect! I think yours and @BlackPanther's sickly idea work wonderfully together.

Players would be able to spend points to interact with the world, take temporary coroporeal form, ect. with bigger actions taking more points. In earlier eras it wouldn't be so bad, but in later low-magic eras it could cost 2 points to do something really small but meaningful.

Furthermore, I think the sickly thing would be a really good bonus cost. Say, for example, you were going to use a bunch of WP to do something really difficult - that would mean next era, you die really early again (which would be a problem if this happened alot) instead you could suffer 1 WP point plus a malady/wound/ect on your next life.

This could be something like losing a limb, being mute, pyromania ect. I'd probably give you a short list of stuff to chose from and you'd have to pick a minimum of one.

I may actually introduce that as an optional mechanic in "normal" play - in a couple of lives' time i'll allow people to take a negative trait in exchange for bonus willpower for use in that life.


Just confirming: Is willpower the same thing as life force/ability use points?
@Melo
I think how it would work is as time goes on and manic dwindles eventually the spirites would not be able to interact with anyone but the other dead

Totally get the limits though

My thought process would be no influence and it would be like another form of a curse
To realize you were mortal and that you found your starkissed
Only to die and watch bad luck happen to them

I figure you'd be able to speak to others that died...then you get reincarnated and go through it all again

Maybe a happy medium would be good lol


That's kind of what I had in mind as well.
