Well, if it's just charisma and negotiation skill, can't he just focus on that? Hell, I had a type of pseudo-eldritch entity in a setting of mine that literally negotiates so effectively that anyone too close to it would quickly find that they have been convinced to make legally binding agreements that screw themselves over without even remembering signing them.

...so basically Thief?

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Yep. That is why Domovoi are limited in extent. Otherwise he could literally, at a certain level of power, tell the spirits of the school's walls to collapse themselves on everyone.

The last time one Domovoi was removed in limits, he basically had to be dogpiled with serious magical shit before he stopped, and they had to gag the fucker while he tried to shiv them.

Physical limitation. He CAN'T do it, not without some very powerful being breaking that limit off of him.

[Empiricist]

Yeah, but if he can convince spirits to do stuff, can't he just convince people as well? So just something mundane like negotiation a merger or acquisition to be more favorable.

Isn't that the character you played in ROTMG almost?

But yeah sounds like we have a shirou situation. He can only do one thing, and there are limits to how much muscle he can bring to bear to do them.

So he needs to learn how to rules lawyer it.

'oh, I don't actually make things, I just happen to have a soul that serves as an infinitely-stocked foundry capable of perfectly reproducing anything I've ever seen and I just use my magic to project what's already there.'

Broke motherfucker.

And yet he dies in almost every route. Goes to show how borked the Nasuverse is.

Someone far more imaginative than me is going to have to figure out how to rules lawyer his ability to make it useful for anything that isn't being the best damn household everything ever.

Sounds more like mind rape than a legally binding agreement. It wouldn't hold up in a court of law most likely.

Well, it's easy.

He needs to take out the trash.

So he takes out the trash.

Get some razor wire that's TOTALLY FOR CUTTING CHEESE AND STUFF and just, you know. Ask it to cut through that biological matter over there. Which is, technically, what it does.

Also, he survives in Fate, searching for Saber for eternity, and he survives in UBW to go on being an hero.

He only TECHNICALLY dies in Heaven's Feel, except not really because magic.

Hm.
So he can convince household objects to do things?
The most logical conclusion I can jump to is commanding kitchen knives, preferably the really fucking long ones.
Lots and lots of knives.
Or, as Rag said, rip off Walter.

[Empiricist]

Why is everyone immediately jumping to weaponizing his abilities? Money is a lot more important.

He could just run a successful hotel filled with supposedly automated equipment, which are actually just embellished regular objects, and just run the whole joint. Think about it, 24 hour automated, world class service.

This too.

Being the best housekeeper earns all dem dolla bills.

Also

Tell ATMs to dispense cash.

It's what they do, right?

[kj1225]

Personally I'm more in favor of perverting them. Instant martial aids with vibration technology where ever you go!

[BlitzDungeoneer]

because I'm a very violent person and weaponise everything I see?

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Razor wire's too small for him to command, and he can just whip out an actual shiv anyway.

This is the freaking forums for the guys who made DWARF FUGGIN FORTRESS.

it should not be surprising that we immediately jump to weaponizing the ability to make brooms move around and clean shit up.

[Adragis]

And don't forget aerosol cans.
