Next set of Rules Changes

This is incorrect. Anoint will protect against any casted effect that would drop you into serious or critical, without regard for its source or alignment.

Zach, he was talking about Anoint off of Divine Ceremonialist that protects against an opposite alignment attack.

We have another case of two abilities with the same name.......

Ceremonies are littered with them.

Well, then. Looks like I have a cleanup on aisle 6.

We are telling everyone now so that they can properly respend build based on these changes
Consecrate will be removed as a prayer and will now be a continuous skill. It will cost 1 build for Priests and Clerics and 2 build for Scholars.

Consecrate
Traits: Divine, Continuous
This ability can be used to create a holy symbol, holy water, or to bless other objects used in mass rites. In addition, it can be used to baptize a willing character to the caster's deity. Using this ability on a Font of the appropriate pantheon or deity allows the priest to create one vial of Holy Water. A character may only create one vial of Holy Water an event, regardless of the number of fonts she has access to.

So say someone made this change on their sheet, as suggested, but realized they now have no rank 1 Sacrament spells. Will that person be allowed to fill it in retroactively and/or at the next event without loosing access to their higher level Sacrament spells? Given that the prayers are self taught, no lesson would have been involved anyway.

As long as you pick up another Rank 1 Sacrament, it should be fine, if there is a problem, come see me, and we will remedy it. - Michael S.

Celts and barbarians should have tolerance, as a suggestion.

Celts and barbarians as of the current description of Tolerance can already drink as much as a human with tolerance.

Tolerance

Skill (Continuous), Social
With this skill, the character has the ability to consume alcohol with the same endurance as a Celt, Barbarian, or Dwarf. If the character with this skill is a Celt, Barbarian, or Dwarf, then she can consume alcohol with the same endurance as a Satyr. If the character with this skill is a Satyr, then she can consume alcohol with a greater endurance than any other normal mortal creature.

fair enough. Thank you for enlightening me.

Speaking of Tolerance, how exactly can it work? Can I dock 15 build into Tolerance and drink like a Demi-God? I know that it is a social RP skill but I feel that the wording behind the skill makes it so that one whom has to opportunity to purchase it is limited to getting just +1 tolerance. But I no reads good, so that's why I'm asking.
Thanks!

You can only purchase one off your Racial list, unless it sways otherwise. I will have clarified the intent on how many can be purchased from a Profession later.

Ok, all that having been said, what does it mean?

For example, how many mugs of ale til you rp tipsy/drunk/vomit/pass out or die of poisoning?


I need to know this for reasons......

"A character may not open a 2nd profession until they reach 5th level. [This will not affect any current players, any character who had multiclassed prior August 2014, and prior to 5th level will be grandfathered]"


Given we now start at level 5, should this be rethought to be level 10?

They changed that this past month, by reaffirming that "level" is considered by build spent, not attained.

Will the consecrate skill still have the same effect on deception during Baptisms as the spell?

Either way the baptism entry will need to be updated.

All build into Tolerance and nothing else!
