SETTING

Welcome to the Edge of Reverie

THE SUGGESTION BOX:

On Day 1, the suggestion box rules were unlocked! Note that these rules are for OOC REFERENCE ONLY, and you will have to have your character figure them out ICly some way or another! But I'll enumerate on them OOCly for you:

1) The suggestion box will not take multiple requests at a time! If you write down more than one, it will yell at you :(

2) You can request one item at a time from the suggestion box! This item can be anything, such as an item from home (a weapon, a trinket, an article of clothing), or even something you didn't have at home (like medicine, sunglasses, whatever). You can request an item once an OOC month, starting on the 1st and ending to the last day of said month. There's a size limit on items, though: the box won't give you anything that is bigger than like. . . a person. So no cars or motorcycles or the like!

3) Not all suggestions will be granted! I reserve the right to throw rocks at your character instead. I'm sorry in advance.

4) Bigger setting changes (I'll let you guess what that means) will need more than one character making the suggestion for them to be implemented. To make this easy OOCly, you can have one character make the initial suggestion and then just have a bunch of people +1-ing it for my purposes. How many people are needed to implement bigger setting changes? FUCK AROUND AND FIND OUT!!!

5) I reserve the right to change the rules of the suggestion box if I get so many requests that I start dying, sweats. But I don't foresee this being an issue, so!!

Now that the rules have been unlocked, you do not have to comment to the suggestion box to get your items from home/small items! However you are free to keep commenting for funsies b/c the box still has some fun little features! And ofc, if your character got their monthly item and is trying again, please also comment so I can give you a SPECIAL SURPRISE that is not a rock I promise. Maybe.

Emet-Selch thinks the team dormitory (Basilisk) is very dreary and is using his powers of creation to decorate it with tasteful drapes and rugs etc etc. Also adding some comfy armchairs. Does this backfire on him?

Before I answer that, can you tell me a liiiittle bit more about Emet's creation powers and how they work? I think they'll hit the powercap rule BUT I want to know more about them before I say yay or nay!

At a broad level, he uses aether (functionally magic I guess) to create things that he pictures. This can be anything from realising spells to literally making a set of robes out of thin air, due to the principle that everything in the world (including the world) is made from aether: spells, physical objects, people's souls etc.

It's less a distinct ability and more like...an extremely high tier function of the magic system used in FFXIV? This would affect him and Hythlodaeus as they are of the same people who can use such magic.

Gotcha! Due to the mechanics of item gain and retrieval in the game, I do think the physical item creation part of that ability will be powercapped. He can still create a physical object, but it will be deformed and sad and unhappy :( :( Like if he tries to create a chair it will be rickety and dilapidated and impossible to sit on! And he can only create two or three objects (no bigger than a person) before he gets SUPER SUPER TIRED, like ALL THE ENERGY WAS SAPPED AWAY FROM HIM.

Creating spells will still work as intended with less restrictions-- he can still cast a fireball if he wants to, and he won't have any issues with it! It's just the physical item creation thing that will need to be nerfed.

I hope that works!

That's hilarious and perfect for a guy who is overly proud of his creation abilities THANK YOU
