I'm not sure that's how the doubling thing is s'posed to work :-\

Isn't it the difference between the trait and 1 that's doubled for scaling? So it would be Strength 0 = 1.5; 1 = 2.0; 2 = 3.0; 3 = 6.0 rather than 1 = 3; 2 = 6; 3 = 12?

Nope. It's just plain doubled.

In that case (which I tend to think makes more sense than doubling the whole trait price), it would end up as 12x instead of 36x, which is still a substantial difference

I'm sure some of the traits that Ascald proposed (and were accepted!) work like that. It would be much confusing if we have some traits being doubled outright for scaling while others are the difference between trait and 1 doubled for scaling.

Wonders with decently developed mechanics:
  • Divine Library: Provides access to non-player lore aka what passes for creative writing for KJP
  • Oracle: Provides answers and insights available to the GM at a fee
  • Timeline Pliers: Allows playing with the timeline
  • Great Anchor: Prevents playing with the timeline near its Tick of construction
  • Lie Detector: Reveals whether other gods actually believe what they're saying
Us damn it...at least there's a counter?

Also, someone build that lie detector so we can use it on everything Stirk Munroe says.

That was just the stuff made in past games :P. And Munroe has never lied, and is kinda on his way to dying. It would be nice if they just finished us off or revived us already :0.

Why would Ascald get deaded? He was the only one to do anything to stop it :P

Andres:
    Fusing: Sure, it's legal to have both traits. It's not legal to try to cheat the system by potentially getting two traits at a discount, though. (Extreme case: Fuse Strength+3 [12] and Intelligence+3 [12] to from 144x to 24x)
Ah, didn't realise that before.

    Linking as in the other kind of linking: That...does not appear to be covered by either school ;)
So I need to make soul magic before I can start cheating the system?

All fanfics are heresy, each and every one, especially the shipping ones. Those are by far the worst.

Can I make strong dexterous humans and put them with my smart and wise humans, so they interbreed and the children get all four traits?

No, they will simply be same-cost combinations at most (and distinct internally)
