    So far it's 6 for Southern and 5 for Northern. It's a pleasant surprise that it's this close, actually; for some reason I kind of figured it'd be a pile on to the Southern Court.

    Somewhat. The benefits are mostly supplemental, though. For example with art, it doesn't improve your actual art skills directly by all that much, but it does give you a wider base of knowledge of artistic movements, symbolism, identifying great works and artists of the past, etc. for you to...

    It's not dead dead, but writer's block + some personal/family stuff happening recently has made it hard to really make much headway. I haven't abandoned this, but I honestly can't say exactly when I'm going to be able to update it.

    Definitely never more than a point or two per Realm at most, since you're starting at 30 out of 40 anyway. That said, at the end of character creation there'll be one last choice for a plan vote where you can suggest any last-minute tweaks to your build before things get started in earnest, so...

    Sorry for the long absence, but the sudden and immediate onset of summer heat is hell on the motivation to do much of anything, much less write. I'll roll the dice to figure out gender and then get to it, though. 22013 EDIT: Male it is.

    The Dao That Can Be Taught (A Xianxia Teacher Quest)

    Currently the gender vote is tied. I'll get started on the next update in something like 6-8 hours; if things are still tied up by then, I'll probably roll a die for it.

    The Dao That Can Be Taught (A Xianxia Teacher Quest)

    A big part of why these descriptions are generally so broad-strokes and filled with caveats is so that they can apply equally well to either gender, and accommodate a spectrum by just giving general archetypes of appearances. So boy or girl, "strong and vigorous" could theoretically be anywhere...

    Cultivation. The pursuit of power and immortality, but above all, self-perfection and personal transcendence. For those who have the talent and the opportunity, it is the pursuit of countless mortal lifetimes, a long and dangerous road regardless of which of the nigh-countless paths one may...
