I admittedly made most of the magic have serious stipulations to get across how fucked humanity is. Truth be told, I wanted to create a story of hope in a grim world - thus the whole 'I am the last paladin' angle. I like the concept of a bunch of outsiders, worn warriors and (apparently) young hopefuls being drawn to possibly the last hero in a horrible world and journeying with him to bring back some light.

(I have no idea what I'd do with a Wraith-pledged character down the line, only that bad shit would occur)

So, does anyone here watch Game of Thrones?

If a player pledges themselves to the Wraith they automatically get pretty strong shadow magic, because it'd be pretty shitty if you got nothing but night vision.


Does shadow magic pretty much encompass what an Illusion-Sneak-Thief can do in skyrim, or is there more to it?

Think of using shadow magic as solidifying shadows, then manipulating said solid shadows. You could lift and throws objects using the shadows, or grasp someone in a big shadow hand, shadow blades, etc. You can stealth with it too (to varying degrees of success) but it tends to be used to throw weight around by thugs who pledged themselves and got the luck of the draw - enough power to actually be scary to people.

Hell no. You don't let the evil come to you, you go directly to the evil and destroy it before it can hurt anyone else.

Just because a person has tainted powers, doesn't mean they can't use those powers to "trim the rose garden". Hasn't this been a common trope in western blockbusters?

This does raise an interesting question though. Are certain people more "attuned" to holy magic, similar to how force sensitives can pick up on the force more easily?

Annie - remove the 'unknown' part next to magic, you don't know any and don't have a power welling up inside you.

Also, while I'll allow you to know how to use a sword and a bow, you won't be especially great with them. You have to remember - your character is 13, definitely not fully grown, and still childishly weak. You may describe her as having 'hard muscle', which sounds like it looks horrifying on a small girl her age, but any adult will be able to overpower you in a fight. Hell, a relatively strong man would probably knock you down by smashing his sword against yours. Basically, you're going to be a weaker fighter than the rest of the cast and will probably remain so for the entirety of the roleplay. Why? Because thirteen year old girls do not make for good fighters.

Also, you've described your character as being naked. You should change that.

I would hope so. Leis needs to be taught paladin magic by our MC before the end of this.

That's a bit too young for that, West.
