So, I went through and edited all the remaining current character sheets that needed updating, and I realized that there are a lot of sheets belonging to dead or abandoned characters hanging around. I'd like to de-clutter the thread, so I'll give a day or two for anyone who wants to save their old sheets or move them to the Graveyard thread, then I'll start deleting posts.

On one note, I would like to say I would really like it if you were to stop having your characters just assume things when there are no reasons to, ok Kat? Like with the Suiren thing Just never confirmed or denied it, he was just talking with Kern until he told you to leave,and if you want to say, "it was a logical assumption", the only thing Just did was raise an eyebrow, which could also be seen as "wtf are you talking about" rather then "omg how did he know it was Suiren".  Also with your mage assuming the life person was the progenitor of mankind when they could just be a demon, or god, or something else, I mean seriously.

Second, now all three of you at the blockade are fucked, blame Gin for continuing to talk rather then taking the bone Just threw him.

So please don't post your guys until I have a chance to post.

However, because I want to get the group moving so they can be at night,if you change your post i might not wreck all your shits.

I have an announcement.  I will be leaving the RP as soon as possible.  I have been pondering this decision for months.  I don't really like how the community deals with matters of the RP.  Keeping things broad, I also don't like the.... dynamic of the chat.  It feels like no one is willing to deal with one another and talk things out.  Or sometimes it can be impossible to do so.

Anyway, if my statement bugs you too much just pm me; or don't.  I feel its kinda rude to just leave without wraping up my characters.  So I will stay until they all finish their little character arcs/ situations or die.  Just know that non of my characters have magic CE plot armor.

I have said it before in the chat but I would like to make a public apology to Knick and Franco.  I am sorry for overreacting and excessive use of CAPS lock.  I will be continuing to RP as long as my characters remain relevant.  I won't make any excuses, only ask for forgiveness.  Also just in advance, i might be over doing it with the apology so if for some reason that in itself is annoying my bad.

On the subject of posting itself.  My posting will be a bit on and off for the next few days but I will try my best to get something out so I don't stall things more than I already have.

Hamara Antagonist Event, “The White Sun Consecration” will be released soon.

Patch Notes
5 New Instances
-   The “Nexus Reconstruction” Corporate Building
o   A beautiful piece of engineering, a large skyscraper which has an open area in the center for relaxation and lunch surrounded by the building on three sides.
o   Within the Center is the source of one of the White Suns which now hover within the sky.  The courtyard is otherwise empty.
o   What Trials await you here? No recommendations, this one is a surprise.
o   An experience not like the others.

-   Viper Den
o   And underground Club which is found in a series of tunnels and rooms under a warehouse.  Light now exits from the ground to feed the White Sun, particularly though the entrances, revealing itself to the world.
o   Traps guard the way to the source of the White Sun originating from this location, but be warned, any who enter here might be in fact simply be pray.
o   Recommended to those with great reflexes, speed, or amazing senses.

-   Matou Construction Site
o   Not related to everyone’s favored worm magus, simply a coincidence.
o   A construction site in which is filled with numerous pieces of heavy machinery and partially constructed foundations and walls.
o   Within the center sits the source of the White Sun within the area, and it is guarded by a singular man dressed in armor.
o   The perimeter is surrounded by numerous guards, however it should not be hard to slip though, especially if one is supernaturally capable.
o   Recommended for those with versatile skillsets, or ones that can be used in many ways. 

-   Rogers’ Theater
o   A Theater for the preforming arts, in which the source of the White Sun is located upon the stage.
o   No guards within sight, however a man sits in front of the source, accepting all who would come to fight him.
o   Here your skill will truly be tested. Recommended to not come alone.

-   The Saint
o   On top of a skyscraper the Saint sits, and from here the White Sun is maintained and controlled.
o   If he is defeated the sun itself will vanish
o   Recommended to not face, even with advantage numbers.

General Terrain Effect
As a general trait of all of these areas, abilities which are not human in pure nature are weakened, those of inhuman nature have their physical abilities weakened, while magic and the like is more difficult to maintain decreasing ability to use it.
   
The structures in each of the areas are infused with the truth of humanity, which means breaking though needs incredible force from a nonhuman source, however to a human source of power it is as durable as any other wall.
   
Finally, those of inhuman nature which are also beings that are ‘alive’ suffer from slight damage and pain from remaining in these areas. Remaining within it for massive periods of time is highly not recommended, however it should not be an issue due to the duration of the event.

Disclaimer:
As an additional note about my upcoming antagonist event, I would like to say that anyone who enters the event loses most of the protection PCs inherently have.

This is a dangerous situation, and while I will not kill anyone, there might be serious ramifications should people get screwed over at one of the sites. As such, serious wounds are not protected against; if you go to these events please note you will have to anticipate the possibility of serious injury. This even can, depending on how your character acts within it, have serious impacts on them.

So, about characters pending approval.

I don't really like Acacius being so established he has the resources he does, even if he doesn't have the ridiculous amount of shit he had before. Buuut there are other characters with comparable assets (not that I'm very fond of those examples either), so I'll close an eye for now to that.

I have a problem with the effects of his main ability extending beyond himself. The ability affecting his actions? Yes that's fine and makes perfect sense. Direct interactions with him? Yep, also works.

Literally everything that happens within 10 meters of him even if he's not directly influenced by it? That I'm not okay with. It's potentially really disruptive and exploitative and can lead to some ridiculous loop situations. I don't see any good reason for the power to work like that, since it doesn't particularly add anything to the character and might just become frustrating to the other players or overpowered for no good reason. It makes sense for himself to be included in the ability since it's an conceptual emanation of his desire, but affecting anything outside of him seems like stretching it bar a really good justification. It's also explained like an "internal" ability and sounds like one, rather than an "external" power.
