Threads Of Destiny(Eastern Fantasy, Sequel to Forge of Destiny)

Voted best in category in the Users' Choice awards.
Meizhen is going to learn how to turn herself into a big burly man and then LQ will get the muscle eyes for them.

Given that cultivators become more spirit than human as they get stronger I wouldn't be surprised if genderbending! is actually a thing.

Also: voting.

[X] Connection
[X] Perceptiveness
[X] Hearth

Wanted to put Hearth in there just because home domain things.
 
I'm not sure where your misunderstanding lies. Basically there are two pieces, a stat, and a mastery when determining a derived attribute. The bonus we got was that we could use Music as a mastery at all. Going Music + Woodwind for hit or penetration calcs would be using the same mastery twice.
Yeah, i get it that the derived attribute is <stat> + <mastery>. What i don't understand is what the effect of our Misc Bonus actually is.
What else could possibly have been the "initial" mastery used in calculating Spiritual Offense Hit and Penetration when we use our musical skills ? Because if it's always been music then what's the point of the bonus?
It's giving us something we already have, it's useless.
 
Uh Meizhen seemed pretty set on not fucking up her current friendships with trying to romance them given her last interlude

Not what I meant- and I was half joking anyway- what I meant is that Bai may be hoping that in time LQ might fall for her.

That, or I have a theory that Gan has a crush on CRX but knows that it's unrealistic to expect his feelings to actually be returned and that being her vassal's enough for him- Bai might (currently) think she'd rather be LQ's friend than lose all connection to her by trying to hook up with her.
 
[X] Dance
[X] Loss
[X] Cold

I'd like cold to at least make a showing here, loss seems like it could rather easily tie into damage or debuffs, and from my understanding our one dance art is strongly save or suck based.

I'm not sure just how much more rebuffing we need, but a bit more flexible offense wouldn't be remiss.

Projection, which replaced Power. Or Expression.
 
@yrsillar There are some keywords being voted for that are similar to each other, but not exactly the same. Should these keywords be merged together? I'm specifically thinking of:

Song > Music
Winter > Cold
 
Projection, which replaced Power. Or Expression.
Expression might have been an idea except it doesn't seem to exist. At the very least it's in neither our attribute nor skill list. At best it's in our bonuses (uncapped Expression) which would imply it's like Dex, an attribute rather than a mastery skill.
Projection is a martial skill so it makes little sense to have something akin to our skill using the bow or polearms affect our spiritual ability. I took it for a reword of "throw", but if it replaces Power i guess it makes some sense, yes.
