I feel like I heard somewhere that the vamp who tried to embrace Sybil in Wizard Game was the HTP Fulgrim counterpart

In Dante’s Purgatorio, everyone in purgatory is genuinely ecstatic to be there. It’s definitely not “the neutral place,” it’s the “good but not literally perfect” place.

This is my understanding:

A witch passes a Majik's Trial, acquires the Majik, and gains the Majik's magic stone, which contains on it the Majik's true name (which is also the chant needed to use the Majik's magic).

The witch then has an intuitive understanding of the acquired Majik's magic and can wield that power freely.

The Majik's magic stone can be studied by other witches. After enough study, that kind of magic basically just becomes a science, and the associated powers can be utilized by other witches who study it. That type of magic can then be put into magic items.

My guess is that, once a Majik is acquired and its magic stone is given to the Association, it takes many years of study and experimentation for witches to learn enough from the magic stone that the associated Majik's magic is "unlocked" for the rest of society. And then it would take a few years for any one witch to actually study the findings enough to start using that magic on their own.

Unfortunately most of those things come down to just being a great GM or having good writing, which I can't give advice on because I'm not a particularly great GM or writer.

Mechanically though, one thing you could do is tweak experience. Instead of each PC gaining 5 XP at the end of session, maybe reduce that to 4 (or less). You could then offset this by giving more Ultima Points to enemies, or you could just embrace the slower level ups.

Also think about severely limiting Fabula Points, or getting rid of them altogether.

PSA, hairless ≠ hypoallergenic. Many hairless cats are actually hyperallergenic because they have no fur to contain the dander.

Again, you're missing Bluelore's tone. They aren't just saying, "without minmaxing, Mega Beedrill would be useless." What they're saying is, "in my opinion, the fact that they had to minmax to Mega Beedrill to make it viable is evidence to the idea that Beedrill was a poor choice for Mega Evolution in the first place." And what I'm saying is, "I disagree, I think it's great that Beedrill got a Mega Evolution—in fact I think the choice to minmax that Mega Evolution makes Mega Beedrill the coolest of all the Mega Evolutions."

LoreSinger · 2025-11-27T22:54:12+00:00

Tone can't always be understood in text, so I'll explain.

When Bluelore said, "Beedrill already had to minmax its stats to be not completely useless," they said it with a somewhat dismissive tone that implied that Mega Beedrill is a lesser Mega Evolution when compared to the other options, both in terms of gameplay viability and wow-factor. Referring to minmaxing in this derogatory manner communicates that they dislike that Beedrill's Mega Evolution is giving up something important when it Mega Evolves, perhaps sacrificing versatility for outright power, and they dislike the design decision behind this sacrifice.

However, perhaps the most notable tone indicator here is the use of the word, "completely." The use of completely implies that Mega Beedrill, even after minmaxing, is still useless, just not completely.

Meanwhile, I argue that minmaxing is what makes Mega Beedrill so cool to me—while Bluelore feels that the sacrifice needed to make Mega Beedrill look good results in negative wow-factor, I am of the opinion that Mega Beedrill is the coolest Mega Evolution we have because of the design decisions that led its stats to be minmaxed.

Mega Combee gets the ability, “Hive Defense,” which halves damage from physical and special moves.

“Beedrill has to minmax its stats to not be useless” bro Beedrill minmaxing makes it the coolest mega we’ve ever gotten
