Ahaaaa seee now that is much more Ironmanish to my liking!...

[Eldagusto]

I’m not super concerned about the power level. The books already are to constraining for my tastes, like no psychic Novas and we really should have a way for Talents to become one of the other splats as often that’s part of a superhero origin they were basically talents that became Novas, like Reed and Benjamin before the Cosmic Rays.

No we know aliens besides humans had Quantum users, the books say exposure to exotic energies sometimes create eruptions, exotic energies probably resonate with quantum in such cases, it’s basically what happened with the Stalwarts.

Oh yeah I made them up for this thread. The idea being sometimes the Gentry don’t make Fetches when they spirit away mortals. But later these mortals return as Changeling and still find fetches. Who made them? Maybe they appeared on their own? Perhaps on the other side of Oblivion when you lose your true name you drown in that endless sea of disparity where swims the Primordial Leviathan, but for some unknown reason some may notice on the other end of the coin that is existence in this Briney Oblivion trails that lead them back. Metaphysically filling the vacuum left by the mortal, and...

We don’t mean the puppy 3rd gen like Auggy and Tremere we mean some of the 3rd gen were embraced hundreds if not thousands of years apart and its implied Abby is probably one of the earlier ones and folks like Sutekh and maybe others were embraced later possible even after the deluge.


And once again diminishing returns, Age doesn’t mean constant super improvement, it’s likely many that survive go through cycles of their power growth plateauing as they stagnate and unless awakened to change, like by eating papa or almost getting eaten or finding kinda love they may not...

What I mean is Vas jumps into Baba as evil goo, and tries to tear her up from inside, but Baba Yaga activates her trap card which transmutes both of their souls into a new being, ideally more Baba then Vas but she was uncertain how much of each Soul would compose the new child. But for her it was a gambit worth taking....

The Bundle of Naught and Nothing
AKA the Forgotten, the Unwanted, Them


Those who are emptiest and without purpose sometimes fetches seem to appear manifested by the absence of the stolen man. They are unbound by the whims of the Gentry and were unnamed remanents who found their way into the mortal world through the hole left in the stolen’s wake. Unknown defined by being unseen and forgotten.

Fetches are but bundles of discarded dreams and shadows.

Splats the Four Bundles

The Bundle of Cloth and Clay
AKA Reflections, Mirrors, Cast offs
Made from the cast of refuse of the world of men these Fetches can adapt and hide amidst the throng of humanity, adaptability and longing define them.


The Bundle of Sticks and Stones
AKA Echoes, Effigies, Scarecrows
Made from the world around mortals but not of mortals these fetches draw upon endurance and eternity of the simplest and first things. Fortitude and aloofness are their...

So we seem to use Novas as a catch all term for Quantum users that are not Stalwarts or Superiors. In the future the call them Aberrants but that is associated with nonterrestrial space mutants, in subnova ones.

But would it really apply to those who erupted from random events before Q Day, or was it M day? I forget what the event with space station was called sorry.

Like a Doctor is caught in a gamma bomb explosion and erupts into a jade giant? Or a lad erupts after a radioactive spider bites him. Like we imagine some of the stronger Novas might have been evolved...

I’m not the biggest fan of chimera basically being in the world as a physical object unless someone sees them. I really feel it worked better before where some chimera could use redes to work real world effects.


I mean what is stopping a Changeling from wrangling up an army of Chimera to dig out and build an elaborate city underground? They do crap like that all the time in the Dreaming. Or what about dragons carving historical litanies on a canyon wall or giants dipping their hands in paint and painting impossible murals on the sides of buildings at night?

Well the labyrinthine is drowning in specters, like literally. You could kind of interpret their existence as a long Harrowing. But losing fetters means you loose access to the shadowlands barring something g special....

And remember emphasize the being trapped for timeless eons makes you agitated and nuts!

I didn’t see the thread but you are already ahead of most of the folks here because you can admit your mistakes. I left for. Few months because of how haughty some corners of the site can be, as well as the fact that you can’t complain to the police about the police if you catch my drift.

This will probably be moved to off topic but good on you if you felt like you were an ass but apologized when stable. ...

For instance walking to Arcadia interviewed two Authors for the Changeling Freeholds book that came out, they asked questions about unclear rulings and one of the Authors/developers said they were not sure and crunch and rules wasn’t their strong suite and Mage was also their main game. They were pretty solif questions too but it was a big I don’t know I’m not sure when a contradictory ruling was published. I mean the freehold book was specifically about Freeholds and you are writing and developing the definitive book on it while also admiring you have no idea how the rules should work......

I don’t know Abby transmuting his blood so hard in order to make Kaiju’s with the incidental effect of making his whole clan have giganto blood was always interesting to me.

But that’s my point if Abby can be leagues behind other Antes some who are younger then him, why wouldn’t Baba Yaga the premier Shaman of her day be railroaded into being automatically beneath Vas whose just a soulless child given eternity to play with. She was a born trancendental genius and Vas was just born without scrupples...

[Eldagusto]

OPP writers also forget rules during live events......

[Eldagusto]

So what’s the difference between say a talent making an advanced rifle in the revolutionary war and a bleeding edge sniper rifle? It would be all around crappier but it could do a few things better like perfectly collapse into a cane with a twist?

I’d buy that supplement sold!...
