Re: The World In The Aftermath (Formerly A World Less Magical)

Okay, so this week we head to Muraddin for a mini-series exploring how the increasing prevalence of mystical phenomena after the Anachronic Calamity is affecting the central world of the Technate, partially inspired by my watching the 80s anime Sonic Soldier Borgman , which was to some extent a test...

Re: The World In The Aftermath (Formerly A World Less Magical)

Superstar's original default method of handling him was to use his Shining Field to blind him, and then use Reaching Field to grab him and take him in. He's gotten better at dealing with that, though, so these days he just grabs him while using Exoskeletal Field and carries him to jail while ignorin...

Re: Getting Started

If what you're interested in is PBP (play-by-post) then you should check out The Gaming Table. You could there find a campaign that is Recruiting new players -- indicated by Recruiting in the tread title -- or possibly start your own.

Re: The World In The Aftermath (Formerly A World Less Magical)

This is strictly a mechanics question, but in general, how do you decide on mental abilities for your characters? It's worth noting that I treat a skill rank of +13 as being "equal to the best that real world humanity has ever produced", so his +12 and +11 are not actually as low as they ...
