What to do if I want to create a character who doesn't battle?

You are dariit, takers of many things, yes? Ra'Tima has found herself in large need of this service. Ra'Tima will trade her services for her fellow dariit to give help. Many moon cycles have passed and still this one finds herself dealing with gajithka renrija. They raid her caravans and ruin her peace. Ra'Tima seeks information and shadow destruction for these renrija. Perhaps you could use her trade for any dar jhaka you find yourself needing rid off.

It was with a thick malaise that Emily's eyes began to open. Slowly at first with a groggy drag, and then more quickly as the sense of urgency that comes from oversleeping began to set in; it was then that she felt the first bell of alarm that sprung her into action.

Everything was dark. Was this the Void, the same Void where she was marked by the Outsider?

...no, something was different here. A Cheshire grin was manifest in the foreground of her vision that seemed to punctuate the all-encompassing stagnation of darkness. The teeth were a lighthouse beacon, and she the wayward sloop drawn to its familiarity like a moth though she knew not from where it came.

Yet as her feet began the pilgrimage towards the host unknown, her mouth couldn't form the questions on her lips.

Quote:“My name is Omni. This is not the world you know. This is the Omniverse. You interest me, so I have made you part of it. The Omniverse is a place that reflects the wishes of those who are part of it. But! There are rules. I will explain them only once, so listen carefully.”

Omni hands you a glimmering orb in which all the colors of the rainbow coalesce. “This is Omnilium. It’s what ties the Omniverse together. Without it, you are nothing. With it, anything you desire can be yours. But you will need more than this. If you desire it enough, you will find it. You will find that using it comes naturally. Just think of what you desire most.

“You will not be alone in the Omniverse. There are others. Of course, they, too desire Omnilium. Do not fear death. For as long as you interest me, you will be reborn.

“That’s all you need to know right now. You’ll figure out the rest soon enough. I’ll be watching … and waiting.”

As I do prep work for my next story, I had a few questions to ask out of respect for the original creator of the setting.

What's the political system and situation in the 5th and 6th Tiers? Is society ruled by elected representatives or solely through despotic control?

Is society/government subdivided into wards, districts, metros, counties and provinces like Earth?

Is law and order manifested in harsh/corrupt police forces?

Would some of the public-at-large feel politically disenfranchised and rally/campaign for certain issues to improve their lives??

Are we, as writers, permitted to take artistic license with these things, perhaps naming and using minor political figures or local leaders to flesh out the setting?

Quote:I won't tell you what to think of this. Evil, greater good, rash emotional teenager. I didn't think dragging out a fight was the best way to do this, so I killed them off quickly.

After some discussion in the chat I learned that, unless the creator explicitly gives permission for their character to become a site NPC, characters are scrubbed from the Omniverse whenever a character switch is made. This apparently includes all their secondaries.

I thought that was too bad since it might diminish Story Opportunities! (an inherent bad), and thus came up with this idea.

So yeah, when Sombra was around, he summoned a bunch of secondaries. He let me control of them and even let them all live in Ambrosia. Some of them became important, like Princess Cadence becoming the president of oHarmony.

Well, considering Sombra switched out, does that make his secondaries void? Am I not allowed to use them anymore?

Would it be TERRIBLY inappropriate to build the Institute's Base as a geodesic arcology around the Nexus gate into the Ashen Steppes? I would like to build my base in that verse but it needs to be accessible to normies.

It wouldn't require anyone to have to register or check in as they entered, unless they planned to visit the Institute facilities that are also in the dome.

Hello,


I've encountered a tad bit of an issue upon my arrival in the Pale Moors verse. It seems that Darkshire has had a siege laid to it and my contact is no where to be found in this forsaken and lumpy fog bowl. Have they sent you any new information regarding where else they may be located? I am not the type of being who enjoys being toyed with or lead on, and surely I will make these imbeciles pay if they've decided to up and abandon our relationship.

In the meanwhile please tell me that you have some other perhaps more meaningful contract to fulfill or information to obtain. Either one would be greatly appreciated.

P.S; I picked up this random young girl with pink hair and green eyes in the Nexus. She was holding something that looked like a... Stuffed version of Nealaphh. I'm not quite certain how she came to know him, but I thought that it would be polite of me to mention that I've obtained the girl and I will be dropping said girl off at the tavern here shortly. She's not too overtly fond of flying and I don't need her getting sick all over my robes.

That would be blasphemy in its truest form.



Sincerely,
