[QUOTE="Beefermatic, post: 5953264, member: 6670757"] Hi Deinos! So, Expression of Power can be negated via AC, Concealment, etc. Just not Abilities that block damage. So Thelemic Damage Induction, Damage Reduction, Sophism, Etc. fail, however a high AC or 95% concealment for example would work properly. Omnispective would indeed wipe the floor with the universe, at least for a moment. I'll get more on that later. I assume you're talking about Reim's ability to step between dimensions. The thing about that is, and I think it states it, is that he cannot affect anything while he does so. So his storm, his Expression of Power, and all other abilities that could potentially affect anything at all whatsoever, fail. As for why he doesn't blow up the universe. It's the concept of MAD, mutually assured destruction. Reim is also an Aspect, that is an aspect of God, like an aspect of the Supreme Being, so by proxy he wouldn't want to destroy the universe any more than you would like to shoot yourself in the head. A bit of back story of my world: The whole of Existence, that is every universe period, has been destroyed 7 times. It is currently the 8th Existence. In each Existence, a rogue element or Akashic Aspect that wasn't supposed to exist, ends up causing a cascade failure in the Existence and causes Thychen (God) to restart it in a new form. In the 4th Existence, an Existence of earth, air, water, and fire with all other elements and powers being derivatives of those base elements (ie, evocation magic is related to fire, healing is related to earth and water, etc.) Reim destroyed existence when he was created. Before Reim, darkness was simply the absence of energy. The Creator of the Creator God (Anti-thychen, or as my PCs call him: Dennis) is in fact the true Supreme Being, he allows Thychen to build the universe in whatever way he sees fit but adds uncertainty to it in order for Thychen to grow both as a creator, and to grow a more complex Existence. When Reim appeared, he used the Word of Chaos "Sin" to obliterate the existence. As Thychen is God, or at least the only God people need to really worry about, he cannot simply dismiss a new concept once added to his mind. I make his creation of Existence both a physical act on Thychen's part, and also one shaped by his memories and dreams. So because he knows of Reim, if he deletes Reim, then Reim will reappear somewhere at sometime and ruin it again if he just tries to leave him out. So instead he makes Reim another Aspect, and incorporates it into the new existence. He does however seal the more devastating abilities to some degree. Hence "Sin Ku Ry Ep Su" The Word and the Seals. So back onto my MAD concept, basically if he was to storm existence, there are an infinite amount of Time Lords, each with a stake in Existence and probably similar powers to Reim (as in universe spanning auras of Your F___ed) that If Reim attempted it, all beings who could see him would see him doing this and obliterate him instantly. Abrogate can target any power, regardless of level (ie. divine or omnific, it doesn't matter.) with the exception of Metempric abilities, but that is really only in my campaign setting that I make Metempric abilities exempt. So what does that leave you with? One round of messing things up, followed by Reim having all of his powers negated with no save by a swarm of pissed, injured, Time and High Lords, Neutronium Golems, the other Aspects, everything in the Pleroma, and possibly God himself. Also I make when things say "Your ___ extends to the edge of creation" only apply to the limits of what our actual universe's estimated size is (roughly 46 Billion Light Years) rounded up to 50 Billion Light Years. With the exception of Cosmic Consciousness. The reason for this is because first off, Ascention states that your Aura reaches to the edge of the universe, not the multiverse, also the idea of the Pleroma, the universe in which universes (Time Lords) reside, shouldn't have every random thing exerting influence over the entirety of something they, frankly, shouldn't be able to even fully comprehend.

As for walls of force, sheer divine damage instantly destroys magical barriers. Look at 'Divine Effect' Page 125 IH Ascention for confirmation. Lastly, I actually put my party in situations where they can die forever all the time, but I reward them justly. I have used Reim as a boss before, before IH, but now that I have IH, I plan on using him as a major boss, not even the last boss, in my big campaign. Mwa ha ha... IH is like chess. You have to learn the pieces, and how to use them properly. Once you know how to use the tools, it becomes alot more feasible playability wise. Hope that clears it up. [/QUOTE]
