It is just a unique type of energy, how hard is that to understand. That is like saying that because Naram, my shardmind hero, is the best with Arcane energy then he should have every power My heroes, your heroes, Zale's heroes, etc. just because they involve magic as well. Naram would not be able to use Pike's ocean powers because that power is unique to Pike's race.

Should Tirion be able to use any unique light powers Kagehana learns simply because his power is light?
All I hear is unique, unique, unique. What I want is something more concrete so that I can understand how it is unique. I give you guys as many details as I can when I create something and for this compromise, I've given the low-down oon the Clone-Blade. Now I would llike to hear how Spectral Energy is unique because just saying it is unique tells me zilch. I can understand Pike's powers being unique to his race and such because it was a Miracle. And it's not like I overloaded on copying powers. I made it specific to the Imps (appearance only) and the Clone-Blade (blade-based techniques only). You made it possible for all of your races to mimic other races' traits with one Miracle. Hello, pot calling the kettle black.

Right now the problem with Phi's explanation is just saying 'unique' is that it's sounding like an excuse to say 'you can't copy because it's unique.' I want a better reason than it's 'unique.' E.G. Miracle on race gives them unique powers. That works for me, but just saying, 'It's unique.' does not.

That's why the explanation you made is much better.

It is more the fact that it is giving Kagehana the power to take away what makes my hero unique while I have only used my own Mythos. Deva has the powers of my races, Lore has the power of my artifacts, my races can only gain traits from my races, but yours is taking from my mythos and from any mythos that she faces.

Specifically, Spectral Energy is his energy/mana combination that forms a multi-colored(Spectral) light that shifts rapidly and randomly between many colors. When the energy is activated, the current color it is on activates its effects. It is unique to Tirion because that is how his mana and soul works. Unless it is trained/given or stolen away, it is unique to him.
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.

Wulf's explanation is what I have been saying, if his wording made it clearer for you then that works for me.

Technically, I gave the Human's the power to focus, adapt, and develop their style of magic along different paths, thus the many colleges of magic.

The Miracle cast did not state only from your own mythos, it stated that your races could gain new traits from those they face through cooperation or conflict. That is far beyond what I did. There is no limit to that while the Clone-Blade is limited to only blade-based techniques. I rest my case on that.

As for the Spectral Energy that makes more sense to me and now if we were in court a jury would rule in your favor (Reference to Raymond loving Wapner in the movie Rain Man). I agree to the compromise now.

I'll go back and check, but I am sure that I listed it as only as between my races, and I will state now that it is currently and always has been only between my races.

I'm sorry that I could not make it clearer right away. It seemed straight forward in my mind.

Have you put anything in the Wiki? Because I don't recall seeing anything beyond Gilgamesh. If you put up the stuff in the Wiki, then there will be less arguments over how your things work as it will be set in stone and we can't argue with that information like how the information on Kagehana is out there. Though I do need to fill out a little bit more... And I do not recall seeing that power added in. If I recall correctly, the original wording was that humans could adapt to anything they wanted to.

 I realize that I should work on the Wiki, but I feel that I could not write it with the quality someone like Zale or Vault could, though it is probably necessary for me to write it to make sure the facts are correct.

I think we just may be having a problem with my wording not conveying the meaning I'm wanting it to. Humans are supposed to be able to adapt and learn to channel a wide range of powers, but each individual human would be developing along a specific path.

The way you word things is infinitely more important online than in real life, because others can't see your face and I need to work on my wording as well. My spelling is near-perfect, online and in real life, but my wording needs work for sure. Oh, and good night everyone.

See, this is why I value proper use of words. One wrong word, one grammatical or syntactical misstep, and you've gone and offended someone, or gotten yourself offended.

Either way, I'm glad I could help.

This post was updated on .
Zale: how many motes for a ring that increases all physical parameters of the wearer by two fold and creates an armor based off of their skills/domains?

...another thing, exactly what can I do with the stuff I already have?

One more thing, can we increase the divine artifact limit to be equal to how many whoever has the most artifacts has at this second. Which I think is thirteen or around that.

Zale, three majors, three. Dephos and Grace are majors.

I've been thinking about expanding the map. Zale, any thoughts on this?

We removed the Divine Artifact limit and replaced it with a limit on how many power ups a Spirit can get from Divine Artifacts at one time without blowing up.

You're in charge of it.

If you want to expand it, I'd love it.
