Thank you, corrected.
While it's not impossible, the SI has spent some significant time purging local cults and removing dhar focuses. There isn't anything around to catalyse mutation, and the other beastwomen know they're on thin ice and would either report it or deal with it themselves.
I thought that this was in Mousillon? Bretonnia's dumping ground for the shameless evils of the setting? How is the waystone network sufficiently comprehensive to ensure that there isn't anything to catalyze mutation, after centuries of entrenched metaphysical corruption?
Chaos Gods: "We're aware. That's the point."
I didn't mention a waystone network. The ring feeds on magic. The waystone network causes magic to flow in a safe and healthy way. The ring drains it where it pools.
Yeeees, but there would still have to be a second parent.
When two beast women really love each other, they can go to the bright glowing orange man to put a baby beast woman, made from combining the genetics of the two beast women, in one of them. Or, if a single beast woman just really wants a baby, give them a clone baby. Or a random amalgamation of appropriate genes baby.
Ah, so the ring obsoletes the waystone network, and OL is only invested in building it up so he doesn't need to bother with the tedium.
Nope. The WHF subplot is basically salt in the wound of more dedicated fan works going on hiatus due to the recent change in Games Workshop policy. It's not a story about the setting, it's a wank about how easily all the problems would be solved if the author showed up with a problem solving OCP.
And honestly it must be really weird from the elven perspective to see the exact same thing happening to Paul ... but with his own unique "wind"
*Checks for the chaos gods exploding his head because they can see the future and that's an actual possibility*
Imagine if you will a very big ship.
I understand that we have different ideas of how much metaphorical leak water is in Mousillon, and how much hull damage is in that area.
First, the Chaos Gods send minions where they want to make things worse, not bolt from the blue kill spells. Second, it's likely that Paul's environmental shield protects him from being predicted by the Chaos Gods in much the same way Lord Protector was able to counter the entity analysis of Worm.
Don't worry Mr Zoat, at least I got it. You're saying we need to give the bucket man a bigger bucket, right?
You know the rule mate. "If it means Paul can be successful it is false/a retcon/wank/badwrong etc."
He's been there for over two years and recharging from drained to full several times a day.
Yes, and right now cults and warbands all over the world are getting visions of an orange champion of humanity whose death will see them well rewarded. But he lives in the arse end of Bretonnia. None of the well connected groups can get to him in a short span of time.
No, they can predict him as much as they can predict anyone. But what's to complain about? Things are becoming interesting.
I could have happily lived my life without ever seeing that.
......I really should have known better then to click next page.'Regular women'.
Wherever you are, leave it.
Truly, the Gods of Chaos have an alien perspective from that of we mortals, if they consider this version of OL interesting. Unless it's some sort of Jack-in-the-Box to them, and they're waiting for someone to notice the unintentional influence of the orange light, hoping it'll get mistaken for deliberate manipulation?
A good crossover has both halves of the crossover complement the stories of the other. Peacehammer has the people and places of Warhammer, but it doesn't feel like Warhammer's world.
I would be ecstatic if Peacehammer were like Veganism. Fuck, the demonstration that Zoat can write with the right tone but is making a point against doing so makes it all the more frustrating.
The setting and characters yes. The writing ethos and themes FUCK NO. And especially not the stories*. At least half of good crossovers amount to "what if we introduce X to Y such that it changes the genre completely"
The heroes of the setting have personal stories, and having them get spoon-fed resolutions to those narratives makes their previous struggles seem less important than they actually were. Sorry if my poor word choice obfuscated my intended meaning.
So, for example, if Orange Lantern's offer to cure Teclis of the curse that has haunted the highest nobility of his particular faction of elves since the dawn of time as a divine punishment to their first king by their own gods despite millenia of research by the greatest scholars among said elves involved displaying manipulation of flesh with ease and variety that to his experience would normally be the exclusive domain of the daemonic powers that were the opposing faction in the aforementioned war at the dawn of time while being of a species that has no magical knowledge that didn't come from either dark powers of shameless evil or Teclis himself, would Teclis being as eager as he was seem less satisfactory?
Only if those heroes are main characters in this story*. Of which, the closest we have to an example is His Hatness McBigHat Lord Archwizard Of Hats. But so far he seemed to show up more as a nod to the fact that he's curious enough to do so, not because he's going to be story-relevant. And even if he was, fixing his body is fixing a problem he already had handled.
Huh?
It was a simile
