One other thing of note: the Geister seem to exist as sacrifices. The loss of identity, the apparent Rank cap on 5, the spawning of Deathmasks, Tyranny replacing Synergy, the source of new innate Keys, the potential for Cabeiros. My headcanon is that the Underworld runs on the symbolic logic that power comes from brutalized death gods, that in some broken timeline the previous chthonic pantheon was sacrificed for the rise of another, and now the Underworld is repeating the story by making new sacrifices.
Since the Legacy is also my headcanon I am going to be combining the two.

I was going to correct you on the Psychopomp part, except it turns out He also does that. The more you know.
Your thoughts on possible Dead Dominions reminded me of my thoughts on Iconography merits. It seems that perception can alter the very medium of death, whether that means ideas about the Underworld becoming Dominions within it or ideas about ghosts becoming more Iconography merits. The constant seems to be that a canvas will remain a canvas.
The basic facts about what a ghost really is seem to be unaltered by Iconography. Likewise, no Dead Dominion answers the...

Broken AC. Sleepless nights, late packages. I am back and resolved to what I wanted to do in the first place: engage over the course of days rather than months.
There seems to be a slight misunderstanding. The Obrimos see all forms of power and authority embodied in their mage sight. That includes criminal power too. That means that the hierarchy they routinely see doesn't neatly match any official record or idea of what a hierarchy even is. It essentially has to. So what I am proposing for an Attainment isn't all that different from what they normally see. The difference is that...

Okay, one part of this rough draft of the Legacy is the portrayal of the hierarchy of the Underworld. Which means I need to have an idea on how it all works. A reoccurring idea for me is that the Eaters of the Dead and the Absent are somehow a part of this system, not to imply that taking Memories is as evil as cannibalism. My current rationale is that the Underworld doubles as an ecosystem. Even without direct allegiance to the Chthonic gods surviving the conditions often means reinforcing those conditions for others, such as the treatment of Memory and ephemera as things to take and consume....

Thanks for finding a source for me. A cursory look resembles an English class though.
As for your question: what are you talking about? What do you mean "the" editor? The forums are completely free to public perusal, so having an account is primarily about interaction with the creative process. It took some time in my conversation with Yossarian to make sure we understood each other, but Yossarian didn't treat my feedback as presumptuous. The official books are not that different. In some cases the developers sell a digital copy in need of editing to the fanbase who then...
