Is that a Stone Elf joke?

I feel attacked!

There is a character who used to play in Seattle that would wield a broom. She claimed to not know how to use weapons and worked in the tavern, so it made thematic sense.

Hi Greyoak! The simple answer is: There is no Fortannis-wide history. The more complex answer: Each chapter has their own "history". Typically, these histories are independent of other chapters, but it isn't unheard of for chapters to have related history. Additionally, some chapters...

I believe looking at LARP systems in a vacuum is disingenuous to the player community. The human interaction, and the consequences of the system on the community, is an integral aspect of the game.

Merchant the expiring treasure equipment. Blacksmith non-expiring equipment. Put those smiths back to work. Sounds like a potential economy stimulus.

That sounds like a good argument to just mandate aura packets to be white. Then packets only come in three flavors: white, blue, and orange.

The SlowForge is fantastic!

Can an admin separate out the various topics from this thread, please?

If packets were limited to only blue, orange, and white, that would suffice.

One of two things needs to happen in order for Colorblind people to actually, materially, be able to use color as a sorting mechanism: Either: 1.) Allow only Black, White, Red, Yellow, and Blue colors for packets. All other packet colors are not allowed. Only solid colors, no patterns...

As a colorblind person, I regularly ignore color because I generally have no clue what color is in my hand or what color has flown at me. Was it orange or green? I dunno. Was it blue or pink? No idea. Light blue or white? Beats me. Is that floral pattern blue? Is the background blue? Haven't the...

I would say yes. A trap is generally approved with it's trigger. If your trigger is a pressure plate of some sort, then the simplest timing mechanism is sand. If you have a tripline or something that pulls a plug from a sandbag such that it begins to empty, then players would have whatever time...

So ... learning multiple sets of rules for the same game, and trying to retain them all, has the potential to cause more mistakes due to mis-remembering the rules. We already have that to a degree just between old rules and "new" (1.3) rules; but switching back and forth between 1.3 and 2.0 may...

I have spoken to a few people (2-3) that are contemplating returning to Alliance. Most of them find the turbulence of "2.0? Not 2.0?" to be a detraction. If Seattle was able to continue "playtesting" 2.0 then those people told me they would be more likely to return.

I think David's point is all of those other skills have alternative options to accomplish the same result (some more resource intense than others). The Life spell does not have an alternative. The closest alternatives to Life (from a goal of preventing Permanent Character Death perspective) are...

I would suggest it be the numerical value x2, similar to using a Signature Spell (the wording of United Blow is awkward by saying 10 times the level, which is just another way of saying the numerical value of the spell x2).

Can Combined Strike and United Blow also allow using Channeling as an available option in lieu of the Signature Spell? Edit: Let me rephrase - Can Combined Strike and United Blow be revised to allow for using Channeling?

If the concern is losing characters, there are several stages to go from Dead to Permanently Dead. Other ideas: Introduce a low level spell that extends the Dead count. Allow a large amount of Healing (say 50 Healing or something) to fix Dead. Allow coin to be used to guarantee resurrection (I...

I am concerned the focus may be too heavily placed on fixing Death. Is Death really the problem? Or is it the threat of Permanent Character Death through Resurrection?
