Lords of Creation 15 (OCC)

[Philote]

I'm surprised Mina would do that.

Wouldn't the Eternites not be the best choices for the school (From what I've read its based around meditation)?

So for the Mana Battery system, think Super Saiyans from DBZ. Each time they move up a level their strength increases, their energy is partially restored, and more skills are unlocked. For example, Lo-Kag's lightning skills were not unlocked until he was in tier two or above. Eternites with training can reach a second batter, these would be the members of the Council of Heroes. Heroes can train their way up to four batteries. The transition to the third battery involves a golden chinese dragon circling their body as their power is released. The fourth battery is obtained by forming a connection and training with a Spirit and usually some aspect of that Spirit is involved with the fourth tier.

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

Consider it this way, eventually an Eternite who wanted to join the Twin Flowers would decide to sit down and learn meditation. Plus, it's 400 or so years after the Nightmare Invasion. As a lot of things can happen in 400 years, it's possible that Suzaku would have members of every race living in it. Regardless of race, Suzaku is practically the most lawless place in Gammara. Afterall, you could kill someone just for stepping on your shoes and noone would even blink, except the stupid tourists who might scream and get killed for that.

But yeah, eventually Dragonborn, Humans and other races would end up gaining the skills to join the Twin Flowers if they worked at meditation, physical attributes and combat skills. The Twin Flowers are like the old Japanese martial arts where you had to be strong in mind and body, not just one. After all, Iaijustsu was based on both mindset and physical speed,

[Philote]

Alright, anything else you need to know about the Mana Battery System?

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

Ok, let's see.... So then the power for the mana battery system comes from the Well of Eternity, right? So then, are there any intricacies that are unique to the mana battery system beyond what you've mentioned? I'm making a page for it on the wiki right now.

[Philote]

Yeah, the Mana Battery System is a result of the Well of Eternity. The Well sort of radiated mana into the Eternites to bolster their own mana.

I can not think of anything specific at the moment, if you have a question about something then I could provide clearer information on it.

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

For the Twin Flowers' Dragonborn leader at the beginning of the Second Age, I'm thinking of having him be called Twin Flower Terr 'Rhogar' Shardskin on account of being an amazing swordsman and an ice Dragonborn like Rhogar from the First Age was.

[Philote]

That is fine with me.

Are they both going to be heroes or just the Human?

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

Just the human, but Terr will still be pretty cool. I made a page (that I'll finish editing later) for him on the wiki. And just to make people guess, I'll have two humans running around who are part of the Twin Flowers. You all will need to guess as to whom Mina (or a member of her pantheon) is going to make into a hero.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

I'm finding it hard to imagine most of these races as having common populace, by which I mean having a large mass that is utterly normal and average or possibly even less so. I mention this because I'll need to reference several unimportant and ambiguous NPCs in my actions at the start of the new age.

[Philote]

Anything you need to know from me?

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

Ah, that. 

The Imps aren't that impressive. They're mostly grunts, ones who would readily worship Crav for his role among the gods, because they are laborers and see him as similar. Koneko was a major abnormality in that she became a hero in the first place.

The Snow Children love cold places the most and can't stand the heat of places like Spectropolis, so avoid placing them anywhere hot. The Homura are the reverse of the Snow Children; they love hot places and can't stand cold.

The Vampires, well, most of them are just blood-drinking people who can't step into light and have just slightly above average strength, though they can manipulate blood just enough to not kill their meals.

The Zombies are strong and fast, but they can't feel most stimuli, so the biggest challenge for them is avoiding leprosy. Most fail at that though, but still become great fighters.

The Kata are all blind, but as Magnas' chosen people, they can sense things magnetically and get around that way. As well, a few of them can bend their magnetic field to control metal objects and create electrical blasts.

Does this help any?

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Yes, in fact I may need the most from you since your races share the most land with Alabastra. But not quite this instant. On a related note, did you ever update your races on the Wiki?

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Actually, yes...it does. Question though, mind if I borrow random races to use as throwaway NPCs?

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

Since you asked, no, I don't mind. Just like with you, everyone else can use Mina's races for plot points during the time between the First and Second Ages.

...Why do I feel like a lot of plot points are going to pop up between the two Ages? GV has a festival and a Vandal war, you have an unknown plot, I have the Twin Flowers in Suzaku and I'm considering having Lycanthropic wars raging throughout as much of the world as everyone will let me.... That's not including what Wulf's planned.... As well as Zale and Jester and Phi....

[Gentleman Vaultboy]

What pisses off the werewolves so bad?

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Actually, my secret plan (that I regret I may spill before its time) will start as the first age does, almost as if marking the date. I hope for it to be more entertaining than plot significant, but wither way it'll be fun.

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

Think of it as an interracial war for dominance. If you look at the wiki page for the Cult of Fur, you'll see that there are several tribes of Lycanthropes. Those would be the groups that are warring and it would start approximately twenty years before the Second Age, continuing until someone manages to get them to stop. Hopefully, a mortal.

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

Doesn't matter to me how it ends up. Either way, we'll get to refer back to it, it'll probably be entertaining, and we can have our characters make comments about it as they think about it... Unless of course, it's something that's hidden from mortal eyes and minds, in which case, I'll be really sad.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Oh it won;t be hidden from anyone...well, in a way it will.....well, not in a magical sort of way......and not all of it......only a few bits.

I'm having a hard time biting my lip and not blurting out my idea.

[Philote]

I haven't touched much on the wiki in a while
