Besides the Motes per Day, is there anything that needs to be changed.
Romans 8:31 What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?

1 Corinthians 13:1-3 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.

Well, basing power off participation is a bit unfair. We can't all be posting all the time.

Oh, the idea behind him is rather dead now because of the rules.
“She'd become a governess. It was one of the few jobs a known lady could do. And she'd taken to it well. She'd sworn that if she did indeed ever find herself dancing on rooftops with chimney sweeps she'd beat herself to death with her own umbrella.”

Zale wasn't sure about putting cap on number of Divine-Spirits, but we can discuss it.

And where did you teleport off to Mik Hael?

Different dimension, different rules as far as I'm concerned. If you want uuse it as an example of how things would be if we were actually allowed to run wild....why the heck do I feel like all of you immediately thought that I would be the one who attempted to take over the world -.-. Meh, I'm just being paranoid.

I thought I said no teleporting across the world.

Which is why I premade an item for it before the rule was made.

Which is why if anyone takes the guantlet, or if I give it to them, I will no longer be able to do this.

No.

Divine Artifacts are supposed to do pretty much one thing. One function.

If you want it to teleport you, then that's all it will ever be able to do.

Sudden change in rulling huh............................

Originally it was intended to break reality with pure chaos, the riping of time space is an after affect of this. I will agree to the ability to rip holes in space being it's sole disposition, if I am allowed to do it's othe rfunction naturally. Being that it was able to inject chaos into any non godly target, turning it into a monstrosity. I will admit though, I've only used the rift function as of yet, so if It's limited to it, then no harm done.

I don't like teleporting across the world mostly because it reduces the threat of someone attacking a place while you're away.

If you can just poof in anytime you want, then what's the point of having someone split their forces to delay you?

If Demi = 1 point, Minor = 2 points, and Major = 4 points. What about a cap of 32 points for Divine-Spirits.

With a cap of 12 Demi spirits and 8 for Minor and Major spirits.

Mostly because it can only be used by one person at a time, and only those who hold it can pass through the gate, which means no mass armies, can pass through, I will not create my own demise. Second, I can't pass through barriers, which is why I haven't send a spy towards dryad's domain. Third, the portals are visible, going through one to infiltrate an army base would be suicide.

in addition to this, it's not teleportation. It's the opening of gateways. I have to make the motion of opening them, and then pass through, both of which, are easily countered by an opponent. If you wish, I can offer a test run of several ways to counter this via a mock fight with a god in this thread.

Major should have less than eight, but it's a sound proposal.

Why less than 8? I mostly put the cap so that someone wouldn't have 32 Demi-spirits running around, actually having 8 Major-spirits wouldn't be bad. Would be same total equal power and wouldn't be large army.

Eh. Dryad has a "Portal" thing also. With an entire race. And they can bring an army through. She did that.

Portals are still teleporting. But yours seems fine, I guess.

The problem with teleporting, is that people could just as easily say that they flew to the location in one post and it would be the equivalent of teleporting.

Other than not allowing teleporting to get past certain barriers, there isn't really an easy way to restrict it.

If they try to invade my lands their death shall be both swift and agonizingly painful. Speaking of which, tommorw, when I gain a domain in dreams, or spirits,....or more likely a combination of the two, may I cause vast allusions and hallucinations.

True, but it's just not chaos without potential omnipresence/teleportation.
