Nevertheless, completely ordinary children can have Kenning, unless something has changed. This is something of the soul, and human souls are deeply tied to the Dreaming....

[Mercurial]

But why should kenning be possessed by only the Fae? Haven't young children always been capable of using the kenning ability? The ability to sense and belong to the Dreaming has always been within the reach of anyone who has a low Banality. Has that changed in C20?

[Mercurial]

I don't think that the ability to use Greymare to create new Arts was ever fleshed out. I normally would just use the system that the Tremere have for creating Paths but am curious of how the new book deals with it.

[Mercurial]

The Hollow Ones probably can manage it due to their apparent relationship to the Dreaming and the Mists. I also like the idea of a wizard mentor who has a sixth and seventh sense....

[Mercurial]

I am considering running a story that will feature Green Dragon, and I am curious how he fell with the White Howlers and hypothetically, how could he be restored. Was it trauma of some sort, or was it some sort of spiritual poisoning resulting from so many Garou he was attached to suddenly falling to the Wyrm? Bat could potentially be partially redeemed if his sense of hope could be restored, but where is Green Dragon vulnerable to being converted back to Gaia?

[Mercurial]

I wonder if two can play at that game?...

[Mercurial]

Given how the Naming Art can change a person's core nature, how about the changing the Thallain back into Kithain? I also don't have the book, so any details about whether or not Unleashings could aid in this would be much appreciated....

[Mercurial]

Where?



That and rules in Guide to the Traditions that lets you roll Avatar+Intelligence every 3 months of training for experience points. Also, you can spend quint to lower the difficulty of that roll. It really helps to highlight how Magi with high Avatar ratings can be potential luminaries to their kind....

[Mercurial]

Woah, I need details there. I love D:tF, so any info would be appreciated....

[Mercurial]

And redes that allow them to gain glamour through human sacrifice....

[Mercurial]

The man that becomes the beast could describe just about any homid Fera with Rage who lets themselves fall into bitterness and hate. But yeah, a small, boxed subsection in a book somewhere or something would be interesting.

[Mercurial]

Just as the Fae have their own governments, is it possible for certain Chimera to secure their own lands on Earth, possibly with the aid of Hedge Magic and alliances with Mage and Fera factions?

[Mercurial]

Good thoughts. That can really flesh out how and why different and even competing Changeling and Chimera governments interact.




Yes, I know. It's just in Dreams and Nighmares there was a village of Changelings in the Dreaming and I thought this might be a good retcon for them.



Also good ideas. I am trying to think of the more interesting aspects of how an organized Fae civilization spread across the globe might function and how it would look like. Fae who can gather Dreamstuff with any regularity are probably as valued as the people who...

[Mercurial]

In my game Dreamstuff isn't exactly rare, but due to the variety, and the fact that harvesting it from the Dreaming can literally cost you an arm and a leg, I decided that the Sidhe through the Crystal Circle offer mundane wealth as well as offer to use of their power over the Arts in exchange for Dreamstuff, particularly certain types. Some of the more adventurous and skilled Changelings (and even some Chimera) make a full time living off of this.

Some of the more authoritarian realms even demand that all Dreamstuff be turned over to the local lord for safekeeping until it is authorized...

[Mercurial]

Hmm... It he is an Apis that disembodied or something then I wonder if he has any of his old Gifts he could use on the Garou's behalf.

[Mercurial]

Was Minotaur an Apis that somehow fell? What do we know of him, and could be connected to that group of Apis known as Last Hope (I think)?

[Mercurial]

Ah yes, Book of Glamour is what I was thinking about. What was Keys to the Kingdom? A second book that didn't make it?

[Mercurial]

I seem to remember that in "Keys to the Kingdom" there was supposed to be some rule on the different types of Glamour. Given how certain Chimera are literally the stuff of Nightmares, has C20 indicated a rule for using Glamour and Dross from things of Nightmare and how it can affect Changelings?

[Mercurial]

And I remember a Werewolf book saying that if you knew a spirit's true name then you held its heart in the palm of your hands.

[Mercurial]

Spirits are a lot more than there forms, though. They might look like an owl, an imp, or swirling light but there essence is completely different and this is reflected in their charms. The essence of places in the Umbra is also different. A wylding is a place of creation, and you can probably learn to control the Prime Sphere simply by observing it and its spirits.
