Crell Archives Reference Thread (i Guess)

Hold on, I got more now. xD

Will you be tracking spells like:
Fireball, throw a ball of flame 5feet to deel moderate damage. Low energy cost.
Or
Fireball. (That's it)

Are there pills?
Or one use magic item?

Does it have to be magic?
What if my specialty was just body building? Defeating magic with the sturdiness of my body and the strength of my fists. xD

Do these beast still breed? If so, is the child a magic beast?
What's the difference between magic beasts and normal beasts?

Can I use clear? xd
or a very very thin light gray?

What's the normal age of a Crell?

How are Rogue Crells found?
Are they Crells wihout a master or smth?

:D

 

Ookay

I’ll be tracking spells in groups of branches of magic, so it’s not really spells so much as magic types.

Yes specialties must be magic, but physical enhancement magic is a thing.

Magic beasts can and do have children, especially if they aren’t dangerous. Dangerous beasts are hunted by mages.

Magic beasts have one or more properties that don’t make sense physically, boring example would by flying withou wings. Or spitting acid or fire. It’s a very broad group so the definition is kinda vague -/^_^\-

*sigh* yes

Crell age differently then humans, a 50 year old Crell would be considered ‘teenage’, Crell also don’t have an age cap so they can be hundreds of years old.

Rogue Crell are unbonded, it’s kinda one of those things that just happens. Sometimes they can be found by a massive increase in magic beasts, other times they just come into a city and bond to one of the mage children.

Aight I’ll be back tonight

 

Can magic beasts have children with normal beasts?

So Rogue Crells just... exist? It's not like crells who's owner dies becomes a Rogue Crell or smth?

Wait.
Do Specialties, Crell Abilities and Spells.
Will we have access to the third one? If so, what are the branches and where should we put them on the app?

 

Sure

Sometimes Crell will go rogue after an owners death, but other times it is spontaneous.

I’m referring specifically to spells learned in RP, over in the rp thread I listed the starting spells. Usually you’ll be able to learn magic effective against (insert something here)

 

There's a potential for a character right there. I do love me some crazy characters.

 

Kinda reminds me of the Skyrims Winterholds College Quest chain in how magical energy takes physical forms

 

So I detailified the map a bit: https://imgur.com/a/4lHOEF5
Sadly finished drawing the outline before I read that this was a mirror of the U.S.
whoops

Some notes:
Took the Atlantic and Florida and make their names backwards (I can change it if you want)
Adirolf sounds extremely stupid though so I took out the L to make it slightly less so
Didn't know if triangle meant "mountain" or not but I assumed it did, can also change

________________________________

Also: Pretty sure I put Etrad like 100 miles south of where it should be. Sorry

 

Ooo cool, nobody really specified being from anywhere ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Probably use that more when people start traveling. Thanks!

 

Also, I know you're probably asleep and won't respond until monday, but does one refer to a citizen of Etrad as an Edradi or Edradian? Or something else?

Please help fill in gaps, mis-characterization, bad writing and such.
If you want to ask why I did this, don't bother. I'm still asking the question myself.

 

Inb4 this turns into a novel. Also, do we really not know the name of Tsuin's character?

 

It was probably given in a convo or something. Don't think it's come up in the rp proper yet.

 

As far as I've seen so far, Tsuin's name has yet to be mentioned.

 

.-.
Am I the only problem here? xd
-----
Rosamel.
Rosamel Frey.

 

So uh, why? Honestly I think you’re putting in more effort than me.

 

Extreme boredom, I think. Not a proper explanation, as I still had to write a paper and do like 70 million other things this weekend, but it's the best I can come up with.

 

With that in mind, I'm probably also going to start question drilling (on aspects of the setting, mainly)
Instead of explanations, I'll just preface by saying I'm sorry.

Does this world's residents have a name for their planet, or did they just call it "ground" in whatever became the dominant language?


On Society and Religion

How has society developed with magical monsters lurking on the edge of civilization? Did the human race have any methods of coping before the discovery of crell?

On that note, how were crell treated historically? Are there any world religions that cropped up before their formal discovery? (I know you mentioned the greeks, but I also know you said you were being lazy) If so, how have they adapted to modern knowledge of crell?

Are there any religions not based around crell? I know it would probably be rare to see a religion not based around seemingly ancient spirits of magic, but are there any where crell are treated as the villains of their myths, for example? Could rogue crell have soured a civilization's view on them?

Are there any significant differences in culture? Did completely different ethnic groups to ours arise due to crell impacts on human history? (and I guess through a long daisy chain of events end up in a configuration almost identical to ours ._.) If so, what are they and how have they influenced the world? Again, I know that you said it would basically be a mirror of the modern-day earth, but essentially everything except egypt hasn't been mentioned yet, and an egypt-like society is pretty much a worldbuilding constant.

Is there 100% concrete proof of actual divine beings? What role did they have in the planet's development? If there isn't what are some of the most common creation myths in religion today?

On Etrad

Under what circumstances did Crell!Europe find N/S America in this timeline?

Does Etrad have a formal system of government? If so, is it anything resembling a system on our earth?

Are there multiple cultures mixing in Etrad, à la the U.S? Or is there mainly one that has settled the region? If so, are there any other independent nations on whatever they decided to call north america? Also, seeing as Etrad is an independent nation, was it originally a colony to a non-UK country?

If it was a colony, did it fight a war for independence? Or was it a more peaceful secession?

Was there an analogue to native americans on this continent? If so, were they disjointed or were they gathered into a large civilization? If so, is that civilization still around?

On The Old World
It was mainly culture and an intricate series of events on our world keeping the Far East from colonization as fast as Europe did. With that (and crell) in mind, what are the cultures there like? Do they have a more significant presence in global affairs?

On the converse, what does Crell!Europe look like? I know you mentioned the borders and names are identical but what lead to that, here? Does Crell!Europe take more influence from other regions of the world? Wait I've been thinking about this wrong

Is Crell!Europe even still a major power? Or have some other cultures or regions of the world taken up the duties of sailing everywhere, planting a bunch of flags, and screwing over half the planet's development?

Even still, is there a major power? Is the entirety of earth sort of on the same level as Etrad appears to be? (the magic makes it hard to place, but I'd guess roughly 1700, as society hasn't had, but seems to be within a few decades of an industrial revolution or a magic-based equivalent.). If so, what are global politics like without a superpower?

What does the impact of crell have on the less-developed parts of the world, and how have the more developed parts used it as a cover for this world's version of racism? (humans will be humans, sorry)

Just for the lulz, what's Crell!Australia like? Where does it land on the Dark Souls™ Scale of Deathworld Difficulty? What's the average size of a monster there, and has anyone tried to use a nightmare to take over the world?
