Ok. Guys? I got an idea. Remember how in xianxia, the more metaphysically powerful you get, the better looking you become?

How about a spell that temporarily boosts stats and gives a few merits, for a limited amount of time?

Can work as a weird healing spell.

[Accelerator]

You know what? Nevermind.

[Accelerator]

Fine. Forget the mortals.

[Accelerator]

Oh. Sorry. Remember greater ward? That can ward against specific effects and creatures?

We need some thing along that line....

[Accelerator]

Hmm..... question. I've been thinking of thaumaturgy. Maybe a spell for each type of creature? Mortal, demon, dead, fae, god, or otherwise?

Question. Sorcery enhancing battle groups. How much can it go for terrestrial?

Acelkuklac, the Armour Worms
Demon of the First Circle
Progeny of the False Sun

A figure in full armour stands tall by their liege lord. Their posture is rigid, and their guard unwavering. Only when one looks closer does one notice the organic extrusions which coat the joints of the armour - and should one raise the visor of the suit, the squirming mass of orange worms reveals itself. They fight unarmed, but hit with terrible hammer-like strength.

The...

Eh.. you can always make a mist of salt and holy water.

OK. Why the fuck is the forum eating my posts?...

[Accelerator]

Um.... I meant. Like.... craftsman needs no tools. You want to make a sorcerous working? Congrats. It's faster. Want to carry out a bureaucratic project? It's faster.

[Accelerator]

Anyway, why would I want to place it as celestial?

In fact, I think its not powerful enough for a terrestrial spell. For goodness sake, this is a circle that includes things like death by obsidian butterflies and an artillery spell that outranges napoleonic cannons. In fact, I think this needs to be wider range, and actually give penalties equal to the sorcerer's occult score, in addition to the damage by sunlight. Oh yeah. And the spell lasts for an entire day. And you can selectively make it so that your own pet demons aren't affected.

suck it, creatures of darkn...

[Accelerator]

Oh god no. I meant in extended rolls. Years to months. Months to weeks. Weeks to days....

[Accelerator]

Thank you.

Ok. So I've been thinking of making a... spirit. Just for homebrew. The stats aren't much, but basically, its like...a sidereal? Basically, its power is in casting either blessings or curses. Reducing difficulties and penalties. Adding extra dice. Reducing intervals. Increasing the number of intervals.

Would something on the level of reducing difficulty by 2 count as something fitting something on the level of a 1.5 circle? What about making things go 10 times as fast?...

Question on ordering about demons.

Ok. Let's say you summon a demon that eats dirt and gravel, and converts it into cement. Basically, it makes roads. You can have it go around the kingdom, making good infrastructure for your kingdom, being a wise and just sorcerer king.

Problem. You're busy. Can you just... tell it to follow the orders of that guy in the red shirt? Like, is it possible? Or do you task-bind it?...

[Accelerator]

Why keep it out of mortal hands?

[Accelerator]

mm... I was thinking of an alter or a temple. Something which allows for sacrifices and prayers and rituals to have great fireworks and give actual flashy powers. But is that better for manses or artifacts?...

[Accelerator]

Alright fine. I'll calm down.

Ok. Question. Because I don't have 3e handy. Is there still the cult merit and background?...

Agyu, the blazing eyes of hell

Within hell, dancing lights are seen, floating and bobbing on unseen tides and waves. That is the Agyu. Spheres of Malfean crystal, with flickering green flames within them, glowing with a green light. A single symbol is on them, and the Agyu points these at things they examine, like the pupil of an eye, its flickering inner flame casting strange shadows. They are mostly harmless, flitting about Malfeas's layers in great swarms, avoiding the predators and acids of kimberry, escaping the darkness of the Ebon Dragon. But of course, all in Malfeas earn...

Which reminds me. The 2e's combat system was made, so as to incentivize back to back fighting....

[Accelerator]

Graaaggghh!!!

Have I ever mentioned how I really hate 3e's crafting system?

How about this? An automated factory. Meant to build anything and everything a city needs. Meant for sieges and support a desert town....
