So this is just a warning that I'm going to advance the Unseelie Accords in a couple of days for anyone that still wants to post something.

Or he could be making the whole thing up.

On the appointed day, at the appointed hour, and in the appointed locations, the Ways open. The physical reality parts, cleanly sliced open as by a razor blade. With the barrier punctured, Winter Faerie now looms ahead. An entire reality, both separate and connected, exists behind the barrier...

Half the intrigue of the urban fantasy genre is the fact that the modern tech and fantasy mash-up seems at first glance out of place, but works very well together if done right. Urban Fantasy presents many opportunities that just don't really exist in a true fantasy setting.

Court Justice (select up to 3):] < Vazos | punk d | flemingovia | > Would you like to reopen nominations? < No > Attorney General: < Gracius Maximus > Would you like to reopen nominations? < No >

Your posts seem to suggest that a defendant "disappearing" while his case is being managed by his defense team is somehow shady or suspicious. What need does the defendant have to appear when his defense team is supposed to be managing the case? Having reviewed the case, a better question...

Is that why you just declared your candidacy?

I think we should try to get an IRC debate setup between the Justice candidates. As far as who I'm voting for, as for the moment the only set decision I've made is on flemingovia, and that is simply because he is hilarious. On a more serious note, while I do find that flem has a tendency to...

Allow me to rephrase, then. 1) In your opinion, does a defender chosen by the defendant have implicit authority to act completely on the behalf of the defendant when dealing with the court? 2) Does the prosecution bear all responsibility when the defense fails to act accordingly to combat...

So just to follow up with some of your statements, and please forgive as I know very little of the actual case aside from basics, but I hope to gain a better understanding of your philosophy through these questions. You talk about the defendant going inactive after having appointed a defender...

The region will be well served with you taking the reins of the AG's office. You have my full support.

Against.

I am a quite a fan of the last opinion you drafted. You have my full support.

How about I do... Adam West. the obnoxious and slightly misanthropic rep from HR.

The McMasterdonian Flemingovian Church Bishop of McMasterdonia is the vicar of flemingovia!!

Either way. You could play a magical population in your established nation that exists in the shadows, or they could be open, or you could make a nation unto itself. Its parallel in that it exists the main universe, but magic and the supernatural, as a whole, is secret to the world at large.

Also, I know people are still putting their characters/nations together, so I'll give it a few days or so before opening it up for people to arrive at Arctis Tor.

IC topic: The Unseelie Accords Here's the thread for OOC discussion of the topic. The invitation is sent to the leaders of the communities, who can elect to either come themselves or select a representative. Laws of Hospitality essentially boils down to "Cause no violence, invite no violence."

Across the North Pacific, to the supernatural communities at large, an invitation is delivered by a Sidhe servitor to the community leader. As you open the invitation, you notice that a single large snowflake adorns the top of the parchment. It is easily recognizable as the seal of the Winter...

Masquerade means that your particular supernatural community is operating in secret from the normal community, whether it is existing within the borders of an established nation, or is a nation unto itself operating in secrecy to all but the supernatural community.

Updated proposal

Added a poll to vote on a map.

Precisely. I also think, Myroria, that your suggestion would great. Personally, I almost imagined it as a comparison to the DnD Wizard and Sorcerer: the wizard who works studiously to increase his power, his attunement to magic, and the sorcerer who comes by it more naturally. Hard work...

I think that for this to work, what we have to agree on is a set of basic mechanics: ultimately what is the source of magic, what does magic cost, things like this, regardless of what "form" the magic takes to each particular nation. We won't strike a balance unless we have that ironed out. So...

Thank you !

I will post thoughts in a few hours when I get home and am at a computer.

So I wrote up this proposal for a general universe setting based on some discussions that were done. This is pretty basic, small bit of world building and some mechanics that I think we need to all have in common in order to create some uniformity of the universe.
