Effects of the Spellplague

TRUlyjuST: Well, what effects dowe currently have?
TRUlyjuST: THey musdt Weave everything together
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Weave
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: What does this entitle
TRUlyjuST: Souls are bound to the ones they are summoned by
TRUlyjuST: That, you must be more responible with your spells, and they are instant magic "WTFhaxdeath" things
TRUlyjuST: aren't*
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Them ore powerful the spell
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: The more magic that has to be weaved
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: When reviving a character
TRUlyjuST: The longer it takes tio cast it
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: tHe character's soul, if it is being linked tot he body again,
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: has to be binded to something
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Whether it is the reviver
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: or some item
TRUlyjuST: Hmmm..
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: When necromancy is used to revive a character
TRUlyjuST: Kinda liek a Lich's crystal
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: The body will slowly decay
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: And lose its abilities
TRUlyjuST: It can be restored
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Only temporary restorals work
TRUlyjuST: If they know how.
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Only temporary restorals
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: we can't have total restoration
TRUlyjuST: Restor, starts to decay again
TRUlyjuST: Restore, decay
TRUlyjuST: Ect.
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Yes, can't have total restoration
TRUlyjuST: You have to keep doing it.
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Each time a body is restored it becomes more resistant to the restoral technique
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: like an immune system
TRUlyjuST: Ah
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: When revived by necromancy, they also are weak against:
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Light magic
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: White magic
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Firemagic
TRUlyjuST: But, one as experienced as, say , Xal, could still do it a number of times
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: and cannot be healed by light and white
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Only by necromancy
TRUlyjuST: Yes.
Pat: What if the actual soul is supplied by a constant source?
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: What?
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: That is totally offtopic
Pat: decay and restoration and such
TRUlyjuST: I see
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: you're not making any sense, pat
TRUlyjuST: Like
TRUlyjuST: If the body
TRUlyjuST: IS constantly supplied with power
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: please say it in one or two sentances
TRUlyjuST: TO keep it from decaying
TRUlyjuST: That work?
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Constantly supplied
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: If the supply is broken
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: AKA
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: WHatever is supplying it
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Dies
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Or loses concentration
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: or something like that
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Will not be able to continue feeding it
Pat: if it's a simple, inanimate power source?
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: (i know i said one or two sentances, it's just I nee dto size this all down)
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Like an item
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: If the source is destroyed
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: The feed ends.
TRUlyjuST: Well, one way fro a continual necromatic non-lich life.
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Thus ending in the death of the person.
TRUlyjuST: WOuld be to bind them to an item that absorbs energy from around it
TRUlyjuST: and, opn a rift to say, the elemental plane
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Souls have to be formed from artificial means, btw, if they're revived necromantically they won't have a soul
TRUlyjuST: Constantly absoribing and sending energy
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: THeir soul is destroyed
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: And thus they have to make a new one
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: AS COmpared to holy magic
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: It revives them in full condition, BUT,
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: They have to have a binding point
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: So basically
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: You can't be revived by holy magic
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Unless you're bound to some point in the world
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Aka,
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: A divining pool
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: as i said
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: And it's easy to be bound to something
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Um.
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Now,
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Spells have to be weaved
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Which means
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: THe magic has ot be drawn from
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: And then slowly formed into a spell
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Which requires concentration
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: And whilst casting a spell
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Their hands are needed to slowly weave the pure energy into a spell
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: The more powerful the spell
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: The more that is needed to weave
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: The longer it will take
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Each spell has a certain amount of uses
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: IE, two times a day and then it has to be recharged over night
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: In addition to the plague
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Spell are also 1/2 weaker
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Which means
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Spells aren't as powerful as they were before
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: However
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: A good part of the plague
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Is this:
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: That the plague can allow for spells to be 'evolved'
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Slowly over time
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: More magic can be drawn
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: And the same spell can be made more powerful
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: But it still goes hand in hand with all the stuff
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Anything else we're forgetting?
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Healing
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: healing takes time
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: As well as your own Health
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: When you heal someone
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: You are transfering your own life force
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: As well as the pure energy from the Weave
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: To heal someone
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: So if you heal someone to full condition
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: You will die
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Gaurunteed
TRUlyjuST: Hmmm.
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: So this encourages people to only heal them a decent amount
TRUlyjuST: Well. from the brink of death.
TRUlyjuST: And, you can over time, build up your health reserves
TRUlyjuST: but
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Yes
TRUlyjuST: Most peoepl with high health reserves
TRUlyjuST: aren't good with magic
TRUlyjuST: SO... people could do like a car
TRUlyjuST: and transfer between them?
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Yes
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: And that doesn't heal them that much
TRUlyjuST: What else...
TRUlyjuST: Regarding wraiths and whatnot?
TRUlyjuST: what about them?
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: what do you mean
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Nothing happens to them
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: They're just spirits
TRUlyjuST: Well
TRUlyjuST: can't they cast magic?
TRUlyjuST: Or, does the ghost thing affect them as well?
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Happens to them too
TRUlyjuST: Alright
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Nobody is excluded
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: from the spellplague
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Magical items
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: They become weaker, too
TRUlyjuST: So, if Lige is still a wraith (Not sure if he is) he would be rendered practicalyl helpless
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: No..
TRUlyjuST: ?
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: He's affected the same way.
TRUlyjuST: ALright
TRUlyjuST: Ummmm...
TRUlyjuST: familiars?
TRUlyjuST: How are they affected by all this?
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: They have to be weaved too
TRUlyjuST: What else....
TRUlyjuST: Thats....all I can think of right now.
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: Naiko has just said
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: "No"
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: When the plague is something we seriously need
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: It's just the overpowered chars who care wtf happens
A Decayed Carcass [ GeoWulf]: cause they don't want to be nerfed

Anything we are forgetting?

Looks perfectly good to me, lookin forward to it.

Looks very well done.

So, in order to safely heal someone from the brink of death, you'd need to only heal them to the point where they're not in immediate danger of dying, and then wait for the user to recover or another person to assist before completing the job. Or am I missing the point?

Exactly.

I don't like it. It will dumb down the fantasy aspect of this server. Not to mention beings of magical nature will die. And will this affect the Gods? They're magic too.

This will open up our world to more technology. I disagree with this ENTIRELY!

This is not true. I have no magical characters and I find it unfair. Why do people who work their characters up to power have to suffer? At least make it not as strong...If magic is overpowered, just nerf it, don't fucking kill it....

Did you even read the damn thing :\

Spellplague doesn't kill it, it nerfs it.. This was how Aeria's magic base was -always- like, but nobody except I and Pat and i dun remember who else complied to it, so we're bringing it in AGAIN in the form of an IC event.
