Since someone has to ask: since MMO or DnD characters are generally from pre-established settings, are they not allowed?

I'm sorry if I missed it in all of this/the Plurk or Discord but. For characters that were previously in Asgardeventide, will they remember being in Asgard before/the Gods and what happened? In case I go with bringing in Clem instead of someone new, and for others that might be wondering and wanting to bring back their previous characters. I figure this is the best place to ask.

Hi mods! I just want to clarify something re: canon powers. So if Steve is getting stripped his super soldier powers would that mean he would be back to “I’m so sick how am I still alive” Steve Rogers, or could I keep the health benefit effects and just knock him down to a normal baseline human?

Hey mods. Would it be possible to app a book character who is dead before the story, but has enough personality, character and history established to fill a personality section?

hi mods! i know loki's magic would be nerfed, but would his natural strength/faster reflexes (than a human) remain? additionally, would his shapeshifting also remain or would he be locked in a single form, as that has to do with his physical body? lastly, purely because i can't find a note of it, does odin only have one eye yet or is he still two-eyed because mimir still has his head? i didn't want to just assume off npc icons.

thanks for your time!

Hello! I'm thinking of apping a non-human character who is an anthro wolf. Because of it implies, I wish to know what limits I should apply.

He is indeed stronger, faster, better sense of smell, etc, than a human, but I suppose those would be nerfed to human ability? However, legosi still has really sharp fangs and claws, he absolutely does not feel cold because FUR - so I think it's better to ask the mods what you think it's best.

He has no supernatural powers, it's literally just a wolf with humanoid anatomy. All wolf characteristics are still there, plus the human characteristics, so I will roll with whatever you think it's best!

I am wanting to play this little lady here, but I am curious. It says powers are stripped/nerfed and they essentially now have the capabilities of humans, but how would a vampire be handled? Would they still crave blood at all?

Regarding the writing samples in our applications, I wasn't clear on whether we are supposed to provide both a roleplay sample and an introspective sample? Or do we only need to provide one of these two possibilities?

I can do either or both, I just need to know which it is. Thank you! Looking forward to this game!!!

Magic, how do?

[personal profile] hantale 2019-06-08 09:48 am (UTC)(link)
Rule 4 on the god powers page explains that magic can only be used a limited amount depending on the magic and the character's level with their god, but doesn't really specify how often or what levels.

Would it be possible to get a more detailed guideline on exactly how draining magic is? Or examples on how often certain level spells could be used at each god 'tier'?

I'm also curious about limitations on Healing/Death Defying magic such as Reincarnate, Raise Dead, Regenerate etc.

Hoping to app next cycle but since two ladies I'm looking at are supporting I'm just being on the safe side before working on apps: Christine Palmer from MCU/Doctor Strange (mostly due to lack of post movie info, I do have a compliant with Endgame version that fills in blanks with hunches) and Kristen Kringle from Gotham (only a season and a half as a recurring not counting the Isabella arc (same actress).

Also for Kristen: she's only been seen a handful of times without glasses so I'm onboard with it being a medical need. Would she be able to keep them or is stumbling around in her future till she finds replacements?

Quick question about power nerfs. Would Circe still possess her magic, but be mortal? Or does she still possess her divinity?

Hi there! So I'm not sure if mods are canon familiar, but I have a question regarding what types of characters aren't allowed and if Data-Sora here would be considered a "duplicate".

Would certain characters from the Kingdom Hearts series count as doubles? Characters like Data-Sora/Riku/Roxas and Riku Replica for example. They're technically their own person and exist in the same universe as their real counterparts.

Also, hello... it's me again with a different character option and another question, since I noticed the KH cast may be reaching cap!

Another potential character I'm thinking of is Alpha from Final Fantasy XIV... who's a really intelligent bird. However, he's never shown to speak and mostly speaks bird/chocobo language (so a lot of chirping "kweh", "wark".) He's only understood by a few people, but is shown to speak into the main character's head at the end of his quest line.

I would prefer to keep his chocobo speak like canon and I was wondering if there was some way to keep it that way here? Or will the magic translate his bird noises?

hi mods! i have another "power" question (i know those are popular) - in alanna's canon, she has a weird quirk where she sneezes when people use magic (called the gift) around her. it's not a power per se (or at least, it's not explained or used as such since it's out of her control), but i was assuming that would go away in asgard - just wanted to check to be sure!

Hello! potential apper here!

I saw that someone already asked about vampires but I'd like to be a little more specific. The vampire I'm thinking of is basically undead in his canon (no pulse or heartbeat) so would that be changed upon his arrival? Aaand about the whole blood-thing, in Edgar's canon they kind of absorb the blood from their victims, either by biting them or draining it along life force with their fingertips, would he keep this ability or would it be considered magic? (Oh yeah, he also eats roses same way because why not??)

Thanks in advance

Question about wings, because having them falls into a gray area. Lucifer can hide or reveal them (mostly) at will. Would that count as a special ability and therefore not have them, or would he be able to unfurl purely ornamental wings?

Hi mods! Quick question about apping from the latest season - So season 3 of Stranger Things came out July 4th. So I'd want to turn in my app asap in the app round, but I think you look at the apps at the end of the round. Can I app him right from season 3, or do I need to app him from season 2 and immediately update him? Thank you!

[personal profile] aetherwell 2019-09-09 04:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Hello hello! I have... a pretty specific question, particularly for disabled characters. Y'shtola here is blind due to a complicated series of unfortunate events that she had a hand in, but she gets around just as well as any person with sight because she channels her own life force into being able to sense the magical energies of the world around her.

However, if I do decide to get her into the game she obviously cant access that ability anymore. Is there any kind of concession to be made, or is she just plain screwed? Personally I don't mind having her need to learn how to get by without it, but I thought I'd ask anyway.

ETA: I'm also considering another character! I can only app one though, since they're close castmates.

The other character is the Crystal Exarch, and he himself is heavily handicapped, because he's attached to a physical, magical structure that gives him his powers and keeps him immortal. As such, aside from having part of his body become crystal or has crystal growths on it (hence his name), he cant be away from it for too long because he gets weaker and weaker. Can there be something done for him?
