Is shapeshifting tied exclusively to full-body changes or mirroring an individual object or organism?
For instance, can one simply change the shape of a limb (say turning one or both arms into a wing), change the color of their hair, or turn a single patch of skin into scales while only possessing the shapeshifting power (as a few examples)?

Raal Deathwind Wrote:going off of your post there, I do have to ask:
I'm planning on a fodder move that'd allow Raal to hop bodies to the corpses of recently dead people. This would give him some resemblance to them but he'd still look more than unique enough to instantly be recognizable as not these people and would not mechanically help him in any way.
Would this fall under "too drastic"?

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.

On the old site I was only 30% full (inbox, my sent messages seemed to not count towards this total) but when we switched over I got an email saying I was overfilled and also that someone had tried to PM me.


The only way to get rid of this was to clear out the sent message folder and the trash can. Is this going to be a thing from now on with the new system? Just asking so I can keep track of my inbox better.

My question was to ask someone to clarify that using the brackets / formatting of that kind are not allowed (in excess) so no italics or holds? I'm a bit confused.

Bold and italics are bbcode formatting, so yes, they are not allowed in excess.

As far as I can tell, they don't -- I saved a new thread in drafts and it never trailed off into an ellipses (I don't know whether or not this would change if I were to actually post it); it did, however, allow no more than 85 characters in the title.

If so, does the required word count go over to the higher minimum (say 6,000 is the minimum of one and 4,000 the minimum of another, then 6,000 is the minimum you must write), or do they have to write a combined minimum (using the last example, 6,000 + 4,000 = 10,000 minimum), perhaps not overriding the higher maximum (say 9,000 is the highest maximum of words required, it would take precedence over 10,000; ie, 9,000 at the very least, not 10,000), or is it all something else entirely?


Also, is it okay to fail quests in-character (such as the character ending up helping the criminal commit crimes instead of capturing them as they should have been doing) as well as out-of-character (you absolutely cannot produce the muse to write it any longer)?


It is also all right to simply reference quests but not actually participate or at least attempt to complete them?

I'm currently working up a write up for Tom's base and including the village in it (In Armando's case will be the Base's Headmaster) Each one had at most two scenes in the entire series  with one exception of four in Ollivander's case. I can find alternatives if they aren't Minor Secondary material.

Say an NPC gives yours a gun but they don't have ranged proficiency, is it still okay for them to use it (but be bad at it, I'm guessing)?
Additionally, could they summon a gun anyways even without ranged proficiency (but, again, they'd probably just be absolutely useless with it)?

Quote:Q7: Can I use incidental weapons? Guns stolen from enemies? Pots, pans and such? 

A: Yes, though you should bear in mind that, as explained in About The World, guns in the Omniverse are usually less powerful than those in real-life due to being tied to the power of the summoner. The exception is those summoned by Primes with high (5+) ATK and TEC stats. It's likely that any weapons obtained from secondaries will be very weak examples, not nearly as effective as using weapons you made for yourself, and easily broken by most Primes.
