Hm... but that doesn't cover proportion-less strength, the main power of the Original Droplets.

Wait a minute... we're talking about an attack on titan.

...50%?

What are you talking about? It's 25% at max, total.

I mean, yeah, we get discounts on creatures if they have traits relating to our spheres. It should be traits, not just flavor, simply to keep mechanics in line and all, as it is then applying as a discount on the trait, but still. If you made the Keardai after the addition of the Hybrid Sphere Discount, then you may well be getting a discount, but you might not be noticing it since it's not super expensive yet.

Also, they're literally generic humanoids. That means they're mooks and therefore suck :P

EDIT: Size didn't exist as a trait when you made it :P

SECONDEDIT: Also, KJP, I believe you forgot to dock me for Jhaniz's cost. Not that I'm complaining, mind :P

Nobody said 50%?

Just have part of their innate magic ability be that their strength remains proportional to their true size, not their transformed size. You'd only need, what, Innate Magic+3? I don't think it's quite on the level of 'like a miniature humanoid sun', after all.

And yeah, they did, Stirk, if you read the post.

i'm pretty sure we're not allowing sphere discounts on something as basic as "make mortals," elsewise TBF could overwhelm everyone with a 50% discount on his generic humanoids, i should be getting a discount on Keardai because they're craftsmen (hell, even more, because they tell stories too)

edit: wait why doesn't it have the size trait goddamnit i swear i applied that

Spoiler: Droplet Stats 5 (click to show/hide)
Okay, close, though it assumes a lot about these. Now I just need to get weakness approved, so I can get them within the range of 17 for 5 Essence.

Andres, the different is so unimportant, that it makes me wonder why you even brought it up.
I need 1k worshippers to get Essence. Unless I have that many worshippers, I can't determine if the experiment was a success or a failure.

It's 4E to make a race, not to make souls, first off.
Races have souls. I made a race of souls.

No council ruling has ever stated that we can make souls outside of a body to contain them in, technically.
No Council ruling has ever stated that we can't make souls outside of a body to contain them in either, which is what allowed me to do so.

i'm pretty sure we're not allowing sphere discounts on something as basic as "make mortals,"
Well they don't have corporeal bodies and are technically dead...

elsewise TBF could overwhelm everyone with a 50% discount on his generic humanoids, i should be getting a discount on Keardai because they're craftsmen (hell, even more, because they tell stories too)
25% discount, but why not? There's no Council ruling saying your sphere can't give you discounts on making mortals. There IS a Council ruling saying you get a discount on things related to your sphere, however. If mortals are related to you sphere, why can't you get a discount on them?

Christine has ensured that details of these scandalous events enter circulation among the mortals, possibly leading to a drop in faithfulness in general and a definite drop in readership from the foremost intellectuals (few as they are).
This is hilarious, but why did this happen?

"Oh my. That is gold."

No, I meant why did people lose faith in the gods and why did intellectuals stop reading it?

EDIT: I was so focused on the number of dudes I made not being 1,000 that I didn't realise the implications of what number of worshippers were actually made: 830. If I didn't have any sphere discount to the action, I'd have only made 750 souls with 3E, but 830 is just over 10% more than 750 which implies that I DID get a discount, just not a big enough one. Edited original complaint post.

Faith loss because gods were proven to not all be entirely good. Loss in circulation to intellectuals because the newspaper started reporting on scandals? You'd think a divine scandal would interest theologists, but I guess the masses fluctuate as they do.

Ironic, considering that Malakath is the most Lawful Good god in the Council (from a certain point of view). Whelp, that's media spin for ya.

Yeah, I wouldn't call creating a thousand souls just to eat them a particularly Good act.

She created a bunch of people with an extreme desire, one that would give them extreme pleasure were they to indulge in that desire (the desire being to be eaten by me). Malakath then indulged them in that desire without anyone who did not want to be harmed being harmed.

Like I said, "from a certain point of view".
