Them just ignoring our messes (which we should be doing a better job of cleaning up, just IMO) removes all the consequences and tension. It doesn’t feel like an authentic experience. Quote That's what we decided on earlier. It's too late to change it now. Eventually, Sha-thoexis will be gone and you won't have to worry about it anymore. 2 hours ago, BookishOcelot said: How long has investiture been around on Earth? Forever? Quote I'm assuming so for now, although I'm not hard-sold on that idea.
Bookish Ocelot she/her Posted July 20, 2019 Posted July 20, 2019 Quote that could be a really cool side thing- a TKND set in the middle ages, or an invested unit in some war.
old man moomba he/him Posted July 20, 2019 Posted July 20, 2019 Quote Like, The Original Knights. TOK. Please help, I'm stuck in Trek naming schemes. 2

WrathofaShardKitten Posted July 20, 2019 Posted July 20, 2019 Quote I'm having some problems with the extent of Sha-Theoxis's influence, too. Just because you don't see something doesn't mean that it doesn't still have an effect. People would get really suspicious if they start running into walls of light that they can't see, or stumbling over even-looking paths. Did we ever even decide exactly how far Sha-Theoxis's influence would carry? I thought that people wouldn't see things inherently connected to magic - like glowing people - but could still see stuff that would be confusing, yet explainable. Like cake being splattered all over a battleground.
xinoehp512 he/him Posted July 20, 2019 Posted July 20, 2019 Quote She can make it so people aren't suspicious. (And cake being splattered all over a battleground is rather unexplainable, in my opinion.)

Lunamor she/her Posted July 20, 2019 Posted July 20, 2019 Quote What if we made Sha-Theoxis’s influence more similar to something like the Mist from Percy Jackson? People would see something explainable in non-magical terms. That could fix the problems with the news and potential collateral damage. 1
xinoehp512 he/him Posted July 20, 2019 Posted July 20, 2019 Quote More or less, although there are issues with that idea. That's why you also have the obstruction of notice/suspicion.
AonEne he/him Posted July 20, 2019 Author Posted July 20, 2019 Quote Ooooh I’d be down for a prequel in earlier times, though we’d probably have it going at the same time as our main plot. Here’s an explanation for the cake: the truck the Voidbringers were in was carrying a shipment of it for a bakery and got in a crash, sending cake everywhere. Not perfect, but not completely inexplicable. Not that I’m suggesting we use that, it’ll depend on the results of the below. I’m going to make a poll for how much people can sense/see, as it looks like we have a bunch of ideas and are somewhat divided.

Bookish Ocelot she/her Posted July 20, 2019 Posted July 20, 2019 Quote I can start a TKND prequel thread later. How many would be interested?

xinoehp512 he/him Posted July 20, 2019 Posted July 20, 2019 Quote Just remember, Investiture has to remain concealed for the entire history of its existence. We're going to have to decide on a reason sooner or later for why it's still a secret.

AonEne he/him Posted July 20, 2019 Author Posted July 20, 2019 Quote Heck yes to the prequel! Though it might depend a little bit on what we decide to RP. I don’t know how accurate or interesting Stone Age TKND would be, thought the idea of doing a war is interesting. We could say historical figures were Invested...What are we calling it?

The Knights Next Prequel As for set in the past it’s definitely interesting, however I think medieval settings would be a little boring and standard with swords and empires and stuff and will lose what makes TKND so unique.
Lunamor she/her Posted July 20, 2019 Posted July 20, 2019 Quote I really like the WW idea, though it could get pretty gritty.
xinoehp512 he/him Posted July 20, 2019 Posted July 20, 2019 Quote If you do a prequel, it has to be in the same area, because spren are stuck there.

xinoehp512 he/him Posted July 20, 2019 Posted July 20, 2019 Quote It would have to be other Invested arts, not Surgebinding.
