Re: Cultue, Traits, and Evolution

Personally, my experience has been that it worked in a more genetic-type way. Just in this game, when I asked about how to handle children of my human and half-elf (with different human cultural half), what was suggested to me was to roll a d4 with the possible outcomes of human A, human B, half-elf...

Re: Cultue, Traits, and Evolution

Raven queen ability has to affect someone who died on this side of the portal. I may have been unclear: what I meant was, "these are two separate groups of people for whom I think it's an open question if they are able to procreate," not to suggest that the Raven Queen's ability could be used to Re...

Re: Cultue, Traits, and Evolution

Isn’t there a Rjurik champion amongst the lot of great captains? What a world that would be, if all Rjurik in this world were literally descended from Fulgar the Bold ... if these echoes of past heroes even can procreate. That might be an open question re: the Raven Queen's "returned" too ... we'll...

Re: Cultue, Traits, and Evolution

Hypothetically, when the Rjurik were wiped out, were all people with Rjurik genetic heritage wiped out? What happened to half-elves whose human half was Rjurik? In theory, if two such people had children, there would be a chance the child would come out full-Rjurik. Trying to reverse-engineer the Rj...

Re: Questions - Diaspora IV

If you choose to bring back a person, can you choose any person who has died this side of the portal? If they were someone from another realm, do they have any obligation to you? If they were a LT of yours, do they become a LT again or would you have to seek LT to re-hire them?

Re: Questions - Diaspora IV

Oh hey, it's me again, Mr. Questions. If you take the Gaian blessing of +1 bloodline score and end up getting converted to a Gaia bloodline, what bloodline abilities does it allow? Can you lose and have to reroll for any you previously had that weren't on the generic list?

Re: Questions - Diaspora IV

I love the new Apollyon event. I can't be the only one who could already qualify for like half of these ... I imagine initiative will be important here. 1) do you still have to use a seek LT action if you're banishing them? It's just a ... banish LT instead? 2) if you have a LT who meets the criteri...

Re: Questions - Diaspora IV

How exactly does item theft work? Does the thief need to know that the item they're trying to steal exists/is possessed by the target? Do you just say you're going to steal an item from player X, and then if successful you get a list of their items and can pick one? Do you get a random one? Can you ...

Re: 2x treasure farming

I think it might be too much to keep track of, but it would be nice if there was regency loss for resolving adventures in (foreign) provinces that are more than one alignment step away from your own, and for counter-resolving those which are within one step of your own. Wouldn't really solve any pr...

Re: 2x treasure farming

I don't like that you get a reward for making an adventure harder. You get loot by adventuring not by making an adventure tougher. I think of it as you've succeeded in helping, rather than thwarting, the forces troubling the province. In this situation, if you've chosen to negatively impact the adv...
