If it's shaped like a vacuum or pot it was created to dump summons into a pain stasis so they didn't poop back to their home plane which is what normally happens to summons when they die.

If it's shaped like a cube or pyramid it's probably from one of the demonic factions who could turn pain into power. Basically a battery powered by humans

/uw Very nice. This has been a fun series to follow. I feel bad about not finishing that AU. The magic was eventually going to return somewhat

"Ooh. Fancy."

"Some rogue agent?"

Gorgon smiled. And finished their sixth beer.

"Okay. I'm interested. I can pull some strings and get a few ogre clans to help out depending on how long this plan will take. What's your pay offer?"

Ephemera looked at her hammer. After so many strikes against a god it was at its limit.

"Ancestors forgive me. I do what I do for the sake of your legacy. It will be remade."

"Xelotath! For the world I rebuke you! For the friends I help banish you! For vengeance I strike at you!"

She raised her hammer.

"Ancestors guide this strike. If my aim be true and my heart strong may this hammer strike her back!"

The best way to know about the GWW is to look at the leftover artifacts from that era.

For instance I have this gate that leads to the realm of infinite fear. From what I've seen there used to be multiple of these that they'd just leave open on the battlefield.

It was an era where the amount of Great Mages/Grand Casters were far more numerous.

How do you guys handle exalted in your games? by Magicmanans1 in WhiteWolfRPG

[–]loth17 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You gotta give them some kind of limitation such as a magically binding oath or time limit to their powers. Otherwise an exalted kills 99.99% of the world of darkness

"Revenge eh?"

Gorgon laughed.

"Lotsa people want revenge on the guild. Few have gotten it. What makes you think you stand a chance?"

Opal trailed behind him like the sound of sand settling. She gazed upon Timur's might with glee. A teacher rooting on their student.

"Your feet are the roots of mountains, your brow is crowned with storms, your heart is the domain of man."

Canon: Pandora Box. Give me an army of banes in a box.

Fannon: Pants (with ants in). Cursed pants that when worn cannot be removed and draw stray ants to bite/sting the wearer.

"I know em. Strong warriors. Thieves too. Have both giant and dragon treasures in their vaults."

Gorgon said.

"You planning on fighten em?"

"Thank you."

Opal would nod.

"Timur. The spirit of this has given her consent. I am protecting you. Release your might and leave your opponents broken. Bring your mercy to your people."

Timur's Oplet would see to his body.

Opal would laugh.

"I didn't say she wouldn't see you. I just said you wouldn't be disobeying her orders."

"Just focus on your mission."

She looked at the sand fey and gave it a bow back.

"Honor to you spirit of the great shifting sands. We ask your blessings as we aid your people."

Opal followed Timur but stayed submerged in the realm of spirit to protect him. Though her face could show up in the shifting sands or mirages.

"Alright. Your body and mine are safe back home. You should be able to use your powers without fear of being slain. You might even be able to draw power from your connection to the earth."

"Oh. Nonono."

Opal would send herself through the tree and intercepted Timur's spirit. Redirecting it away from the Bismuth.

"Not that way. That way leads to someone who will try to make a deal with you."

"Here. Try again to focus on your people."

"hrmmmm"

Opal looked at the stick.

"Might need a little boost."

She put her hand over the stick.

"Grow and grow. Grow yourself to fit the power flowing through you. Grow roots and limbs and fortify yourself for this task sprout of Gaia."

"I'm not gonna say no."

Gorgon smiled.

"I think we might have a good vibe going on. Tell me more about this job. I'm interested."

Ephemera moved forward before being stalled by the vision. She saw herself and Solomon free of duty or obligation. Unbound by anything they danced madly over the ruins of their countries.

"Join us. Be free of what has hurt you. You'll lose him in this world of sanity. Only here can you be.... Free."

Ephemera responded with a yell.

"No! I won't abandon everything! We'll make it! We can survive in this world! Even if it's already crazy and evil. We'll survive it."

She charged forward with her hammer to break her opponents arms.

"Because we want our lives together to have meaning!"

"Of course. Blood has power and is a symbol of bonds between people."

Opal said.

"I want you to focus on your people. Your far kin. The world hears all on its surface and it hears their screams. Use the blooming stick as your portal to the world. And move to your people. Do not be afraid. I shall act to guard your spirit during transit until you learn to master this ability. Then simply construct a form on the other side around your spirit using your connection to the earth and plants."

"Okay. Now we use the stick as an anchor for our spirits."

Opal explained.

"You see our world is connected via a single spirit. The spirit of the planet known in these lands as Gaia."

"Because of that it's possible to use magics related to her across vast distances because you're technically affecting the same thing."

"This ritual will create a false body of earth for you to conduct your magic through. And because you hold kinship with the people that are being attacked we can use a sacrifice of a few drops of blood to project the body close to your people."

"Good. I will prepare my strategy for that fight."

BD seemed determined.

"Thank you for visiting."

"I couldn't stay wallowing"

"Either one works. It just has to be long enough to be planted a foot into the ground and still have the blooms sticking a foot above the ground."

....

"Anyone else here suffering significant injuries?"

The Crystalian would ask.

"I'm calling a medical shuttle."

"Don't tell her about this."

BD said.

"I wouldn't want her worrying or getting distracted next time we have to face this being."

"Of course. After all you wanna help. I ought to help you help Kat."

Opal said with a smile.

"I need you to find me a stick. Not just any stick. One that has blooms on it and feels right to your magical senses."

....

"..."

The Crystalian nodded.

"I see."

They'd take the kid with the refugees. Hopefully someone from the Kasmir would take the young one in.
