I'm just curious how they line up with the other beings and monsters of the settings.

I've been wanting to run a WoD game with my group for a while, and I'm thinking starting my team off being guided by Divine sources. That said, I know my group, and they will end up murderhobos, even in this setting. So they will likely get some visits by Angelic Enforcers.

You are Charlie Dennet. Magician, student and roommate to Superheroes. At least, you think their superheroes.

Currently, you are busy scrawling away on the inside of a pizza box, muttering to yourself about some gibberish or another. Truth be told, you aren't even sure if what you're writing is English. Magic is like that at times. But, the one thing you are certain of is that, if your theory works, you should be able to teleport. It'll take you about 15 meters, tops, but at least it'll look cool!

Finally, you finish the last of your scrawling and lean back into the couch, sighing with relief. When inspiration strikes you in regards to magic, usually, your options are to drop whatever idea you're having completely or jot it down. Unfortunately, it seems your inspiration struck you as you were in the middle of 'Pizza for breakfast' with your roommates Tim Drake and Conner Kent. Anita Fite is still pretty miffed about the 'whole you jumping into her dreams and injuring her' deal. You'll probably have to make it up to her.

As Tim reads his book and nibbles on his second slice and Conner, somehow managed to keep his fourth from falling out of his mouth, despite both of his hands being on his Xbox controller, you can't help but feel the need to ask

>A. Hey, just to clarify, are you guys Superheroes or Supervillians?
>B. Hey, how much do I owe you for the pizza, Tim?
>C. Do you guys know any other users of magic? Besides Anita, I mean.
>D. Do you guys know where I can get a job?

>You are a young man named Lloyd from the frozen Northern mountains of Tordo, on the continent of Teege. After a youth spent learning magic, you and your girlfriend spent some time as bandits after your home was destroyed, but have recently taken a chance to escape that life into a legit one... As sellswords, admittedly, but it's better than nothing. When the situation calls for it, however, you might take on the POV of a character somewhere else for a thread.

>Your exact goal will change from thread to thread, most likely involving some job or another you've been sent on.

>The questmasters are Octoling (myself), and Grandflaw. There's no particular rhyme or reason to who posts when, and sometimes one of us might not appear all.

>Character Death is always a possibility and sometimes an inevitability (this is Fire Emblem after all), but your actions can very easily influence who lives and who dies.

>Voting periods will last an average of ten to fifteen minutes, but this may be increased, decreased, or generally changed at any given moment based on voter turnout.

What would a world be like where talented, unique, or high ranking individuals have an effect that renders them hugely resistant to harm. Called in setting as "heroes"

This doesn't mean they are invulnerable, though they are strong, fast, or smart they are otherwise still mortal people and in theory can be harmed much like any other person.

In battles you'll pockets of space open up in armies where heroes" start mauling troops that charge at them in small files, scores and scores of arrows missing them, or being sole survivor of sinking ships and plane crashes by almost impossible means. Commanders and soldiers when asked why they didn't get back in line or try to target this one person simultaneously, can only give an indescribable sensation of not being able to. Imprisoning them or trying to restrain them for long is almost always doomed to fail.

Much like gravity or electromagnetism is a direct force in the universe, so to do certain individuals have sway on reality. It's something directly observable and noted. Even in the modern age this persists, with sayings like "The hero always finds a gas mask" and "Only two things will survive nuclear war, roaches and heroes."

This does not mean they can take down armies single handed, there is in fact a threshold of how many soldiers they can face down single handed or arrows they can dodge but this will always result in terrible, horrible casualties. Such is it that it's incredibly practical to try and kill a hero with another hero.

It takes a king to kill a king.

Why the hell are psychics assumed to be "science fiction"? Like it's crazy to me

Whenever you try and pitch "magic" to a scifi setting the justification is always something like "nanotechnology" and while that shit can be pretty handwavey there's at least a pretense to a justification there. But then you suggest psychics and people just take them in scifi wholesale with no further elaboration.

Like how!? How is a bunch of electromagnetic pulses going off inside a squishy soft tissue thing inside my skull going to reach out and tamper with the laws of physics around me? What is the justification here? You literally may as well just throw in regular old "magic" given it's about as sensible.

And if you try and put psychics in a fantasy setting people sperg out and act like they don't belong. Again: because they're "too scifi". Like what is even the "science" part of them!? There is practically no justification for psychic powers outside of "the mind is a mysterious thing". I mean come on!

Cats.
You became a pirate to rescue cats.

Yes, that has to be the reason. There is no other reason that you would care for more than a few seconds about this petty and stupid political drivel you've been dragged into by proxy.
It's funny, you would rather be fighting the dragon again. At least fighting the dragon seemed straightforward, and was over in an afternoon! This? You're likely going to blow through your stash of alcohol before this is all over.

You are Jack Albator, mighty explorer, keen investigator, and it seems like you're the only one in the whole world who can calm down for more than a few seconds to investigate anything. Yesterday was harsh on you. You chased a dragon, somehow, away from a nearby country: Gallete. There, you found more atrocities which reminded you why you never went to Gallete.
In hindsight, you should have let the scaly bastard have the damn place for all the good Catland has done for you recently.

Last night, apparently a lot of things happened in Biscotti without your knowledge. There was a break-in, an attempted kidnapping, and none of these were targeted toward any of the people you were expecting to be in danger.
There is one linking factor between these incidents: Cats were involved.

"Jack!" The green-haired girl yells from behind you. "Slow down!"
"No!" You yell back toward her. "Ye slow down, Aye'm running at a brisk pace!"

You figured running all the way to the castle would be faster than trying to saddle some livestock to carry you. Surprisingly, Felice has been able to keep up with you the whole way so far! Impressive considering how much stronger you should be.

"I'm just saying, stop rushing! Calm down!"
"Aye'm not rushin'!"

"Jack," Felice struggles between breaths, "I know you're mad, but if you show up as you are right now, you'll just start punching people and causing trouble! Just chill!"

>"No, I want to be angry."
>"Yar, fine."
>Run off and leave her.
>Stop and calm down.
>Other?

So, Mage is finally almost about to be laid out. For now, Dark Eras is being worked on, although the art hasn't come in for it yet. Also, Rich is 53.
