The Immortals Handbook

[mythusmage]

Hi mythusmage!

Hi yourself.

Is 'Void' representative of Nothingness or simply a generic term for outer space or something like that?

In this case good old outer space. The story of the gods of the Ki universe is long, involved, and would require more of my brain than it's able to give right now.

They sound in and around Old One-First One* sort of power.

Out of curiousity where would the Gods of the Void sit amidst the Marvel Hierarchy...in your opinion?

I haven't the foggiest. I can say that we're speaking of beings that, at middlin power, can affect galaxies with a cantrip.

BTW, as others have said, one's sig only appears once a page. But there's also the drop down menu that appears when you click on a user name. Click on mine and you'll see a line that says "Visit mythusmage's homepage". You can add your home page by editing your profile. I hope it helps.

Hi UK!

Hi Knight Otu mate!

I can tell you why you have problems with your sig - Spoony Bard changed the way they are displayed so that they only appear once on each page.

Why didn't he just limit the size of sigs?

I mean I can see why you would want to keep them fairly small (some people do tend to go overboard on sigs etc. I remember seeing one sig in particular that was like a small story - although that was over at WotC) but it seems a bit extreme to

Have you added the site to your profile, by the way? Might also help.

Right enough.

I also have the...NOOOOOO - computer problems just returned, my screen is disintigrating.

Okay, I restarted the computer, that seems a temporary solution at the moment, but this latest problem has me boggled its like the screen is made of wallpaper and someone is tearing strips off. Most disconcerting. I wonder is it something to do with the Graphics Card?

Hi yourself.

Hello!

In this case good old outer space. The story of the gods of the Ki universe is long, involved, and would require more of my brain than it's able to give right now.

Well the Gods of the Void could be just another name for the Sidereals (Cosmic Gods/Star Gods/Overgods) then. Although being able to affect a supercluster 'easily' sounds like First One or possibly Time Lord territory.

I haven't the foggiest. I can say that we're speaking of beings that, at middlin power, can affect galaxies with a cantrip.

Well it might be the equivalent of a cantrip for them, but it would likely be an actual epic spell.

I think in Marvel cosmology beings like Eternity and Death would be hard pressed to make light work of a supercluster.

BTW, as others have said, one's sig only appears once a page. But there's also the drop down menu that appears when you click on a user name. Click on mine and you'll see a line that says "Visit mythusmage's homepage". You can add your home page by editing your profile. I hope it helps.

Thanks, I'll do that too.

From what I understand, this current modification reduces the server load.

He, the WotC forums are full of people who have a sig that takes up the full screen.

Well it might be the equivalent of a cantrip for them, but it would likely be an actual epic spell.

For his Mythus game Col Pladoh set out three ranks of magic, each with 10 Grades (levels). The ranks being Preternatural, Supernatural, and Divine. What lay beyond Divine he did not say. So Grade 1 Divine magic is of greater potency that all but the most puissant Grade 10 Supernatural dweomer. The scale I use is: Preternatural magic affects individuals, Supernatural magic affects communities, Divine magic affects nations. Something that can affect entire galaxies would obviously be even more impressive.

Switching to your computer, you may have to take it in for work. Might be the graphics card, could be the CPU itself. Or, it may be the monitor. I hope it's easily and economically fixed.

On your sig, much appreciated. But I'll keep the link in mine as well. Now go forth and add some content! (A forum maybe? This thread is getting a tad long after all.)

Hope things are going well.

Hiya mate!

Well whatever helps them - I am constantly finding ENWorld slow in and around 12-6pm EST. Understandable I suppose though.

He, the WotC forums are full of people who have a sig that takes up the full screen.

Yes they do sometimes go overboard.

Incidently I just added a quick update to the website, specifically the pictures for the Zu: Warriors of the Magic Mountain review.

Very interesting. I suppose it would be very easy to parallel this system with D&D. Preternatural = 0-9th-level spells, Supernatural = 10th-19th-level spells, Divine = 20th-29th-level spells.

The scale I use is: Preternatural magic affects individuals, Supernatural magic affects communities, Divine magic affects nations.

I presume that is a House Rule by you?

Something that can affect entire galaxies would obviously be even more impressive.

I actually have the spell levels for that worked out somewhere (I have spell levels for everything from nukes to multiversal destruction).

I balk at the idea of 'taking it in', I have 3 friends who work as IT troubleshooters, but the last time one was here (a few days ago) the problem never surfaced, in fact the machine has been on its best behaviour all evening. Go figure.

On your sig, much appreciated. But I'll keep the link in mine as well.

Hey thanks!

Now go forth and add some content! (A forum maybe? This thread is getting a tad long after all.)

I will probably have to start a new thread before I get the Forums sorted. The problem again being the lack of credit card and thereby having to rely on friends to seal the deal for me - which I don't like doing.

The next content to go up will be some epic monsters, including (among others) Godzilla: King of Monsters...not the Hollywood travesty either, but the Toho terror.

Hope things are going well.

Fair to middling I suppose. But thats good for me lately. :\

Just seemed to be the way things work out with Mythus magic. Of course, there is some overlap.

'Course, I figure any god who can practice topiary on the Milky Way is not about to even notice mortal affairs.

"They're sentient? I didn't think they even qualified as 'life'. Don't expect me to believe they're sapient as well."

You could always go for free boards, like EZ Boards

Hi mythusmage mate!

I would just be careful in assigning areas of effect so casually. I mean if you have two spells of the same level and one affects one target and another covers a vast area of effect then the latter is going to be much weaker to counter its area advantage.

'Course, I figure any god who can practice topiary on the Milky Way is not about to even notice mortal affairs.

He he!
