Celas at the Warehouse

Post by Celas »

Going to start with the big one, also while I decide how to use the other two. I'm not sure the Warehouse will even take this severely irregular entry, but I'm gonna give it the ol' try.

Certain [UNDEFINED] events lead to an opportunity for a certain Fateweaving Deity to try to fulfill a certain hanging fortune regarding a certain Blind Cartographer's effects on his Necromantic powers, and This Thing was created to try and recover something that was Lost.

or all of the cost of a Necromancy spell being cast by the entity in this first designated group within this overall clause beginning with 'Caster may', with expenditures in this manner reducing the tally of MP spent that is spendable for this purpose (as counted by all such entities in this first designated group within this overall clause beginning with 'Caster may', even if said entities are

individuals being able to expend MP from said pool to cast Necromancy spells, additionally Caster may, at the time of this spell's casting, designate any number of individuals and designate any

designations they are designated as being able to re-designate, with caster, as an effect that cannot be re-designated, being able to spend an action to re-designate one or more of the designations they are designated as being able to re-designate; This spell takes (300 - (caster's total number of Necromancer abilities + caster's total number of Geomancer abilities + caster's total number of Channeler abilities), to a minimum of 1) consecutive actions to cast, any individual above Level 80 may spend an action to make this spell uncastable so long as this spell's owner is of lower Level than said individual and no individual of higher Level than said individual has spent any actions to cast this spell, this spell, across all copies, may be cast only once per thread; This spell's effects cannot be cancelled by its caster and do not take a buff slot; This spell has often-intense RP effects; Keep track of the casting count on this, stuff may start happening once it hits various values

2:17 AM]Gadigan: The bullet has, after two years, finally been bitten and fully chewed
[2:17 AM]Gadigan: That was a long mess to write up, but the Black Chartist's Map is done
[2:17 AM]Gadigan: May it serve you well, Celas!
[2:17 AM]Celas: Thanks so much!
[2:17 AM]Gadigan: You're quite welcome!
[2:19 AM]Gadigan: Lemme know if you ever need a plain language version (either mechanically or RP wise) of Joyous Necrocartography. Actual text is the rules mechanics-wise, but an explanation should help with paring down choices and letting you get the jist of what it allows.
[2:19 AM]Gadigan: This offer is, mind you, contingent on the request being made at a point where I remember what it mechanically does
[2:20 AM]The Nottest of Daves: Huzzah, I am immune to Map-fiddling!
[2:20 AM]Gadigan: Haha, why?
[2:21 AM]The Nottest of Daves: Well, not completely
[2:21 AM]Gadigan: Oh, Citadel of the Fisherman not making you a Zone for letting it cross-battle target you?
[2:21 AM]The Nottest of Daves: Yeah
[2:21 AM]Gadigan: nods
[2:22 AM]The Nottest of Daves: Actually, I'm going to request that plain language version right now, as part of the Artifact Description of the "How Do Artifacts Do?" thread
[2:23 AM]The Nottest of Daves: Not that you need to do it tonight if you don't want
[2:23 AM]Gadigan: That thread would get the RP version
[2:23 AM]Gadigan: Do you also want the mechanics version?
[2:23 AM]The Nottest of Daves: In this case, yes
[2:23 AM]Gadigan: Okay
[2:24 AM]The Nottest of Daves: Mostly because that thread is also probably the best place to put notes on mechanically-confusing artifacts
[2:25 AM]The Nottest of Daves: Unless you'd want that separated specifically
[2:25 AM]The Nottest of Daves: in which case I can make a Mechanical Artifacts Notes thread with just this post
[2:29 AM]Gadigan: It lets you custom-tailor effects that certain individuals benefit from against disfavored groups. You can either pick people who are there right now, or you can pick them based on categories that it knows about.
The effects are (in general terms):
Resistance to Necromancy/Undead
Tracking how much MP enemies spend on Necromancy and then letting you hork equal amounts of their MP pools later to cast your own Necromancy
Being inside or outside of Darkness/Magic/Necromancy Zones and Necromancy Phantom Terrains (either existing now or that are made later by people/groups you specify)
Using a big shared pool of bonus MP to cast Necromancy
Being assigned sub-admin privilages to this and getting your own security permissions to change the settings/setup

So, for example, any of the following would be valid:
* Celas gets 30% Necromancy Resistance against Roy
* Undead on Celas's side of battle are not inside Necromancy Zones created by Anathema, whereas individuals on Doctor Miracles's side of battle are
* Celas, Lili, and any individual on Lili's side of battle with Expert tier or greater Channeling Attunement is now tracking the expenditure of MP by any Demon when it casts Necromancy and may later use an equal amount of the Demon's MP to cast its own Necromancy
[2:30 AM]The Nottest of Daves: Are "Necromancy Zones/Phantom Terrains" just those things created by Necromancy Spells, or are they a specific kind of Zone/Phantom Terrain?
[2:31 AM]Gadigan: They are those things created by Necromancy spells (or other effects that actively specify it)
[2:32 AM]Gadigan: I think I may go ahead and port this bit to the site so that it's there for reference later
