Re: The Book of Demona - Breathing
I like the once per game version.

Re: The Book of Demona - Breathing
Kind of like the mass petrify idea if the spell isn't tied to some specific comic/cartoon event anyway. You could even call it Medusa's Gaze.

Re: The Book of Demona - Breathing
Yeah, I like that version. Differentiates it more from the Crimson Bands.

Re: The Book of Demona - Breathing
I just wanted to throw my support in here. I concur with LOs assessment on the thematic here. Demonas main wish is that the clan would be one and she blames humans as opposed to her own actions on why the is not the case. Humans first destroyed her family and now a human is keeping them apart.
Would I want it to be everything I love...sure...but that's just not realistic so I'm going to focus on finding things that will make me unhappy and work on fixing those. |

The more I think about it, yeah, a single respawn might be better here - Demona isn't really a character you ought to be playing whack-a-mole with like Jason. Oh, and I love, love, love that Mass Petrify idea! It's actually tonnes more thematic to what actually happens in the cartoons, and looks like a lot of fun - I just didn't know if I could make this balanced! Thank you! Quote:

Re: The Book of Demona - Breathing
Not looking directly at Medusa is how she is defeated, so being blind sees like a logical counter for a magical spell that turns people to stone.
I've seen some of the show and am familiar with the castle in the sky spell breaking portion of the lore. |

Re: The Book of Demona - Breathing
Yeah, I could get behind a Blind Warrior call-out, especially with a rebrand to Petrifying Gaze or something. "Don't look at Medusa" is trope-tacular enough that it doesn't feel like a hyper-specific Gargoyles thing.
A few other stray thoughts, digging into the SP a bit more. Definitely think we should drop the SA language from Arcane Plot, just because from what I'm gathering, that's not really the right kind of spell for her to be using (and she likely won't be pushed toward those with only one spell a game anyhow). EDIT: Oh, also, the timing on the OM movement may need clarified/changed.... if she casts a spell like Petrify with lingering effects, is "after casting" after the initial use, or after the effects go away? I think this came up before in connection with the Magical Aptitude stuff and I think we erred toward the latter. Agreed with johnny's take on Immortal Hatred. Okay as one thing, but I'd prefer to see it broken up, and I like the once-a-game resurrection. The timing also needs clarified so that it's clear whether or not she can boost initiative on a round she comes back. (And whether or not she comes back before OMs are placed) I hesitate to add complexity, but I wonder if something like this wouldn't sell the impetuousness a bit more (I know I mentioned this briefly in the LCW, but I don't think I had a specific suggestion and we kinda moved on): Quote:
On the class.... I'm okay with Outcast if that's our best fit, but could Exile work? Mainly just asking because that's on Deathbiird and I'd like it to be more of a thing. (EDIT: Kind of a lot of thoughts, I know, but this is a meaty design!) |

Re: The Book of Demona - Breathing
I would consider flying and Move 5 to save space here. Feels like a minor theme break if she is the best glider and her magical nature lends to such abilities.

Re: The Book of Demona - Vote for Initial Playtesting
SP isn't up to date, so I'm not sure what I'm voting on.
Could we get the current state of Demona in there, LO? |
