Have you not viewed any anime, ever? The heroes help everyone in trouble, regardless of allegiance, and especially if they're injured. But that's beside the point.

Akroma, stop starting arguements. Granted, a few are fine, but you go way too far every time you get involved.

[Kansa]

Smurf, please make a ruling on the current teleport situation.

[Akroma]

it was an in-character arguement, until kyle had to come and insult me for it.


as for the teleport yes or no question, we are discussing rule mechanics. I am not argueing with Sanure. I am argueing with kyle because he is the kind of Hypocrate that Sen only pretends to be for fun

[PrivateNomad]

Making a GM ruling here.
Teleporting others against their will enables a RES roll. The higher the roll, the less distance they are teleported or the longer the teleport takes.
Does that satisfy everyone?

[Akroma]

well, any numbers on that?

[Kansa]

That sounds fine to me.

[smurfingtonthethird]

Ruling is that the teleport happens, purely because I'm annoyed. Henceforth, all targeted teleportation gets a MAG/RES

Akroma, you insult people often, and that's not on. If I catch you arguing out of line again, the punishment will be severe.

[PrivateNomad]

Just so you guys know, telekinesis can be one of the most plotbreaking abilities there is, if you use it right. It's a method of dealing direct damage without the enemy getting a SPEED or RES roll and can easily destroy structures or machinery.

Also, I believe I should decide how the teleport plays out considering that it's occurring in my plot.

[Akroma]

it's not just about damage or insta-kill scenarios. Almost any situation where an enemy provides a physical obstacle (and that is a common occurance), can be resolve with just a snap of a finger. the enemy does not need to be dead, 10m to the left can already be way more than enough and bam, suddenly pushing the button to disarm the doomsday device, or freeing someone from bindings or arriving at the mcguffin first is childsplay.


and even more importantly, it also establishes a bad *in-game* presence. As often with magic, there is often the question *but why aren't they just...*. Being able to do certain things makes other things arbitrary and pointless, and everything becomes difficult to believe. It's hard to weave a suspenseful yet halway credible narrative around someone who can just solve any fight at the snap of a finger

edit: also oh boy, is it late, sleeptime

[Sanure]

I am going to go sit over here because I was on the phone just now and the OOC just kinda left me behind o.o

[Sanure]

One thing I forgot to touch up on is Sen's Catalytic magic:

It is weaker than normal except when she has an active catalyst, in which case it is at full strength.

Sen's teleportation spells are actually stronger than ashley's teleportation, due to being able to safely mass teleport any number of people so long as she has the mana for it. And as for the Not being able to teleport her far, Sen did teleport an Efreet all the way to hell by using a larger form of the teleport spell.

[PrivateNomad]

Technically, Hell isn't 'far' because it's not in her current plane of existence. What she did was a planar shift.

[Sanure]

And turns out I left the Succubus that Sen was using as a catalyst as absorbed and not set free.

Official: I am not allowed to not release the succubus once done with them...

@PN: Which requires a lot of mana to do. It's not easy teleporting between planes at will unless you have an obvious connection with said plane. Other wise it would take a lot of mana to teleport something non-native to said plane.

[PrivateNomad]

Ah, just finished mapping this dungeon...

[PrivateNomad]

Meh, you all probably won't see me tomorrow. Personal shit.
