The King's Question Thread?

[King B]

Are there particular perks to specializing in one sort of spell-casting. For my character personally, I'm tunnel-visioning for Ink casting mastery. Wondering if there are any perks, or maybe even suggesting the implementation of perks for specialization.

[Kaden]

Others will devote their study to a single faction, finding it easier to master certain spells over others.

I think "specialists" will be appropriately compensated. I played around with a couple different perk systems, but ultimately just worked similar ideas into the core mechanics.

[King B]

So like, me and Krig have just discussed about this concern. We would have our characters created already, but we really don't have a feel for the culture of Anyria and therefore cannot think of a name that could fit any sort of context. Are there any sample names we could build off on that's not Bill Yen?

[Sophia]

There are some names in the Chronicles forum. Athran, Camden, Alanyia, Balron, Tannis, Felnar, etc.

Edit: Err...unless I'm not supposed to answer. Didn't think about that until after.

[Kaden]

It's fine, Soph.

I thought there were quite a few names throughout the Chronicles to give people a feel.

[King B]

Are last names a thing in this world? Or are we supposed to have just first name! These are the things that worry me. I read the chronicles.

[Kaden]

Yeah, there are last names.

Sorry, I thought it was assumed that, with the exception of Darus, all the named characters had the last name D'Elmont.

[King B]

Queen Calmia may have kept her maiden name!

[King B]

Aside from the elemental magical powers, are there any power ups for physical attributes? Can you say, use magic crystal on your shoes to make you jump higher, or if I have ink inscribed on my self I can become physically stronger?

[Kaden]

Yeah, actually.

There's going to be a new post in the Rules forum tonight that will cover that. I had been going back and forth on how I wanted to word it, so I didn't have it done when the RPG launched.
