Ooh! I have just woken up and I can see a wonderful number of posts! Always a joy to see! I've even been downright asked some stuff, heck yeah. Righty, let's go in order.
Does our mc have a morality compose or a bottom line at all?
This is an interesting pair of questions. So, the way I'm running this is that while the character has started with their own Alignment and such, the main thing it's affecting (at the moment) is at
most the way certain things are presented by the character's own internal thoughts on it- I partially hadn't even realized I had done it until it was pointed out, but in the way Iluontar, while still having blatantly stolen stuff and not being innately against it, still
defaulted to actually being a Paying Customer rather than just lurking nearby for the Wi-Fi, something that plenty of real and normal actually do.
With all you've been able to see, the only thing in your inventory and spells that even checks alignment at all is just the dagger. Funny enough, if the other character had been chosen at the very start, the pre-existing Alignment and sticking close to it would have been
catastrophically more important and impactful. As in, once this quest reaches it's end, if I do ever run a 'sequel' where we start over with the other character, I might break out things like weighting the votes and potentially having
that character just outright mutiny some votes if they clash too far too quickly with their morality.
also is our quest world dominion or city dominion?
The Quest itself is for y'all to do
whatever you want while 'behind the wheel' of this powerful character. It's the
character who had the
original, pre-Amnesia goal of Rule the World. If y'all decide to abandon that goal and ever like, put it in a vote to say 'Give up world conquest', that is entirely fine.
But applying the question to the character's goals, y'all know that Iluontar's reason for being on Earth Bet is in fact to Rule the World, but you guys don't explicitly know the
timeframe of that plan. Which, given that you're an elemental, a high-level wizard, and know that a contributing factor in your greatest regret was not being present to caution
patience among other things, hopefully implied well enough that Iluontar's original plan was probably on the patient side of things.
The bit of confusion is also a touch deliberate, since y'all know
What you're here to do, but know neither of the
Why, or more pressingly here, your original
How. There's a reason why I split that into three sections, mixed it with some other options in ALNE - 1.0, and then told y'all to pick
two.
Also, not knowing what the MC's original plan is, y'all have to figure it out on your own, which is fun.
Oooh, yes yes
yes, gladly!
How does Mindlink work with Dominate Creature, Hypnotize and so on? Can we just use it on dominated people to quickly gain day to day info from random targets?
It would let you give very detailed orders very quickly, but Mindlink is solely giving information
to the target and not from, being one-way.
Do we need to work out Permanency stuff ourselves or can we expect this to be handled IC?
If y'all can get the resources for castings of Permanency, then just quickly mentioning that you'd like a particular thing Permanency-ed or not would be enough, but given that it eats up resources at a fairly prodigious rate, I'd rather not assume Permanency first. (Especially since I'm using the Permanency Standardization rules).
Can we reasonably expect that Awaken Construct would work on our robot?
Nope. It needs to be a Construct at all to be targeted with Awaken. At the moment, it is well and fully an Object. It would be like targeting a normal statue with Awaken Construct or a hidden dragon with Dominate Person, outright 'Invalid Target' error.
Can we assume that Iluontar will automatically use(or not use) buffs as needed(i.e. Mage Armor) or do we need to specify their usage?
Generally, in or before fights he will, as well as due to the nature of fights probably acting in the heat of the moment, just sort of automatically doing things you/he didn't explicitly know y'all could do, the same way you automatically defaulted to a Greater Teleport to cover the highway distance even if you didn't know you were capable of that in the slightest.
So, generally speaking, yes, unless in a vote y'all specify for him
not to do so for some reason. You are still allowed to specify, you just don't
have to.
Lastly and just in general, feel free to @ me if there's other stuff, and if y'all feel like you need an extension on planning time because it's a big thing or an answer I gave to a question massively changes things, feel free to just ask.
