A Book Written Twice/Tiefling w/special background
-
- no wings, this is what we tell everyone
- distant ancestry to pit fiend is fine, but background may just be a legend
- tiefling thayan with summon book is fine by me
-
- No wings
- She should retire Misa (or at least make it so that she is not giving out crafted gear if the PC isnt her main)
- Not sure where the war theme fits with this, other than it's probably the strongest one. Nothing in this says "War theme" to me.
-
- Has to be Conjuration specialist (not just spell focus) for the War Theme
-
- There is no explanation about why the War Theme is appropriate
-
- War Theme needs to be nerfed before we give it out to another player.
- Makes more sense to offer the Infernal Theme if the player comes up with a viable reason
-
- Fairly sure the Infernal Theme would need to be reviewed before it is granted as well to make sure it is worth the IC consequences of using it.
- No to wings
- What is the player's expectation for "link to Thay"
A big question for me is will the player accept push back/conflict/expectations given recent convos about their rl situation?

She absolutely would need to retire Misa imo.
- Application PCs (even the light ones) need to be the main
- PC has run its course anyhow I think.
- We don't want a pocket crafter logging in "because it was slow so I thought I'd just play around" giving out stuff.
-
Yeah infernal would make more sense, and she should really retire Misa if she wanna try something new
-
I'll talk to the player and help flesh this out

I'm pretty sure they want the war theme to represent their connection to the Red Knight, so it actually does kind of make sense to me. That said I've never been a big fan of the OP war summons.
I also am not familiar with the player at all. The goals actually do seem kinda cool but it sounds like there's concern with how they handle pushback which they absolutely would with a concept like this.
Why do we hate wings? Just curious.

Less about hate, and more about our subraces being /distant/ descendants from their weirdo race, meaning small features are fine but major ones like wings no. Also, we cannot support flying for PCs :)

Regarding the War Theme, application needs more than I am a lay follower of a deity with the war domain. What is the story part of it? Holding Derp to the same standard I held myself when I asked for it.
Don’t necessarily hate on wings but they are an OMG look at me thing. We don’t do wings on dragon touched and they have a stronger case for them on creation than tiefling imo. They are something that we have handed out with the RDD PrC for Draco etc but on creation when you’ve earned nothing, nope.

As prof said,
Wings are RDD EIG
War theme is a concept in itself, not a theme per say. I would see more in her concept than this generic “I’m from Thay.” Because I could make the same argument about any theme. “I’m from thay, I want fire theme. I’m from thay, I want shadow theme.”
Fine with the concept though. Sounds fun. She could easily earn the above with IG actions.
