If Essence is able to make more creatures for the same amount of Essence, doesn't that mean that Essence itself would become more powerful? With 1E, it would be possible to make 10k Humans. As a result empowering an angel with 1E means empowering it with the strength of 10k Humans. That's what it seems like to me, at least.

Also, does the Unique trait make angels more powerful? If I dropped the Unique trait from angels I create, would I be able to increase their numbers without decreasing their quality? Would they even be angels at that point?

If I changed my sphere to Divine Beings, would I still get a 15% discount when creating angels? The Angels sphere seems a bit limited considering I get a x10 multiplier to all things relevant to my sphere assuming the Unique tag is necessary for creating angels.

$$$
Price check on an angel twice as powerful as a normal angel in every way

Could you put the GM-created magic schools in the OP of this thread? Only the player-made ones are currently included and finding the GM ones means searching through the YG1 thread.

They have Fear+1 and Charismatic-1. How are they supposed to get all cuddly with a member of another race if they're naturally repulsive to everyone?

Charismatic doesn't necessarily mean pretty, just good at convincing and social stuff, likewise fear inducing doesn't always mean ugly, they might just have a scary personality or something.

I wasn't thinking Charismatic-1 or Fear+1 translated to ugly. I was thinking that they're unlikeable people who look likely to shank you for your wallet.

Also, it says to some people. A few. Not everyone.
"Fear+1 <1.1>: Terrifying to a few" This could translate to merely scary or creepy for everyone else.
"Charismatic-1 <0.9>: Appalling/unattractive to many" Many people dislike the personalities of the things.

So while it's possible that some of the things will be able to reproduce, they certainly won't be able to do so enough to maintain their numbers.

Wait, I read that as charismatic +1 and fear +1, and then proceeded to not really read your post before replying. My bad.

*Beastiary.

Also:
Crystallum and their biosphere:
Crystallum and similar lifeforms are made of a self-organizing crystal that is capable of thought.  Accordingly, they live near minerals, and must consume them to grow.
They tend to live in underground structures that may, to the unknowledgeable, resemble caves, but will contain feats of architecture and art.  Crystallum generally worship Tenat.
