Welcome to Gaia! ::

I don't mean to nitpick but surely I'm not the only person who looks at character profiles as soon as somebody joins.

You should probably list both occupations and classes, if someone's character doesn't have a day job they can just list themselves as unemployed. Other than depth and detail to a character, having a day job at least means they have something to do in RP downtime, and an explanation for why they have so much money. It's called an occupation for a reason. Since their character class determines their combat style and prowess and this is a warfare based RP I don't need to get into that any further.

Anyhow, if a character class isn't listed at least inspect it and have them explain what it does.

If we're going to get into ranged weapons, don't just point out guns. People should probably keep track of quiver capacity, how many throwing knives, they carry, how many sappers they have, etc. In the case of advanced technology, there isn't an easy way to mass produce ammunition for them. Arquebus' are easy because it isn't difficult to produce lead pellets and gunpowder, but arrows take time to craft properly.

It's difficult to dodge tornadoes, floods, earthquakes and the like too. Not everything is going to be avoidable. The things that aren't should probably be used in moderation though. Any area attack is difficult to actually avoid.

Nobody's going to carry a cannon, but lining them up between your wall castling is a good way to slow down a charge. They also happen to be good offense on ships in naval combat.

Marital status would be a fairly important detail, but nobody's made it obvious that their character is married or even dating.

For the top one, Teleportation should take alot out of the user, as it really is a high level ability, and kind of cheap when people keep teleporting to dodge an attack and then teleport onto someone for the death blow... Basically limit teleportation.

On the note of Technology and Magic, in most fantasy setting they clash. Magic has laws, but they tend to bend the normal worlds laws, and are a separate thing altogether. Technology is something based on the laws of the world. Normally when the two exist together, either magic starts to fall out of phase and slowly becomes replaced by technology (the opposite of the light bulb example, If you can flick a switch and have light, then why bother learning for years on how to light a room with magic?) or magic stays strong and technology is rare. Most tech would be made to either strengthen magic (like say a 'gun' that didn't require ammo for it really aids you in focusing your magic) or supplement it (For those ungifted in magic, or just unable to wield it, if such people exist in this world).

Well this is just my opinion on the subject.

SO here is my continued opinion:

I agree with nathien, if they do mass teleportation spells like a large group of people or too a different nation it should drain them and mostly make the teleportees vomit, due to the sudden change in mass and such (gotta love ap physics razz )
But i also agree with phae small ones like blink and blur, or my favorite colm's shadow disappearance are really good in battles and yes are draining with excessive use but to a smaller degree... I think that's what i meant

Dragons have one of the hardest hide known to man, therefore it should take lots and lots of people to kill them... But most aren't immune to magic, I spy a weakness!!

Occupations- We should allow the users to make their own with our approval.

New profile thingy- I likes it but it might be hard to implement sso I suggest that we start by changing ours, maybe after Ashe and Colm are done with making their children and then start alerting the users

Did i forget to mention something?

Alright, I finally understand the difference between Class and occupation now and we shall use both of them.
I also agree that if we eexpect other people to use the new profile, we've got to use it ourselves first. I've already started altering Illusions Profile. The spot for CLASS should go right about OCCUPATION (too lazy to change the form just yet)

As for the outfits, I understand that part because Illusion adn Shina/Ashe change theirs quiet frequently. I'd say that the description you put is what they're usually seen wearing. But if they have other things they were just as often, to possibly put down multiple things. Like for instance...
Back: Heavy woolen cloak; quiver full of arrows; Napsack of spells;
They're all seperated, so they can be worn interchgangably. I don't know, might help though.

I NEED TWO/THREE PEOPLE TO START WORKING ON A SPECEFIC TASK!!!
I want 3-4 deities. THey don't have to be dedicated to an elemenet, but they have to stand for something. Like the God of war and pain, stuff like that. Not just that though, they need a city. Like where their main temple is, where everyone from that city would have them as their 'patron god'
I pick Mor, Snow, and Colm to work on these. Take one or two each, please have them done by Sunday~

Well, actually conserning the dieties I actually have a form I'd like you all to use when making them. It's so they're at least a little uniform, but they'll still have things that set them apart.

Diety Form:

So should we make a deity sticky thing in the profiles?
And would you like us to rp as them if we ever need to on the mule?

does Mor mean me? o.o

I dunno, I mean Evangel pointed it out to me a few weeks ago. It seems like rank doesn't have an effect on player character interaction at all. Though most of his opinion came from the complete lack of unity in earth, then some unruly lower ranks in the fire castle, then the ill treatment of the guards and the castle itself in water. It seems feasible for NPC control though.
