I’m kinda of just picturing the War Devil making a grenade out of someone’s head and sword out their spine.
Anyway blood for the blood god, skulls for the skull throne.
Oh great I can’t wait to practice human transmutation.
Can I put them in my pinky? How easy is it to break a demon?
Enchanted spinal cord sword?
Given that this is another world and the Shattered would have never heard of a ‘London’ that speaks volumes about their training
The reason why fleshweavers don’t have any friends.
Too bad the Shattered is a puny mage, earning khorne’s disdain.
It’s funny that this has been a thing with any and all gods of violence since forever, as if magic is cheating somehow… Does Khorne weep when you shoot the berserkers instead of engaging them in glorious melee combat?
There are alchemists who focus on that, but it’s a bit redundant when you know flesh magic. Modifying bodies through alchemy is usually a mix of chemistry and transmutation, the process is usually pretty long.
It really depends, all demons are different, some are more unpredictable than others. Weak demons will usually bow to someone stronger without a fuss, strong demons however… It can range anywhere from “willingly submits because they’re bored” to “Will try to turn you inside out for even daring” without forgetting el famoso “Will work for souls”.
Demons are actually usually pretty amenable to their summoners, most demons WANT to be summoned anyway, for various reasons, some more nefarious than others. Demons are often inclined to make compromises, knowing that they almost always come out on top in the end.
Though that’s not always the case, ultimately, demons are purely desire-driven beings who will do anything they feel like, because they can.
And when they DON’T want to be cooperative, it’s quite difficult to get them to behave. Ultimately, demons have very little to fear from mortals, only the most powerful mages could truly hurt them. If they are killed on a physical plane, a demon will simply have to find a way to manifest again, or be sent back to hell where they will quickly recover. Demons being immortal also means they can be extremely patient, despite their nature, when they need to be.
It’s usually a match of what will win out between their stubbornness and how much of a nuisance you can become to them.
Enchantment isn’t strictly alchemist-exclusive. Alchemists prefer to modify the inherent properties of a material than adding properties as an afterthought, transmutation can deeply alter the function of whatever it’s used on.
Enchantments rarely touch to the deeper nature of the object, and are more centered on adding properties to it.
You’ve seen one slum, you’ve seen them all.
Sounds like they’re just afraid of some skinship.
Leave it to gods to be conservative about their results.
I was kinda thinking more turning flesh into something inanimate vs other fleahy stuff.
Baby shark on loop got it.
So we need to research demon souls until we learn how to obliterate them or go close and personal to hell and establish a pecking order.
No Warp Gods here to protect them from complete obliteration after all.
Then yeah definitely, transmutation can be used on living things even though it’s mostly meant to target inert matter. But it’s very efficient against the minerals in our body, iron, salt, calcium, and all the more chemical elements like phosphorus or magnesium.
It can create chain reactions that completely calcify the body of a person, or make the salt in their body completely drain them of moisture as it turns them into withered salt statues…
To the salt mines it is.
got here from a post on reddit and I love this so far 
always love an amnesiac protagonist slowly unraveling their past and Loran was delightful
really hope this will some day get continued!!
If the stars align, very soon.
Baldur’s Gate 3 and Armored Core 6 came at the worst possible time.
no hurry! this is such a good year for games it’s kinda ridiculous
Baldurs gate, armored core, phantom liberty, Fate remnant, starfield, mortals Kombat, remnant 2, payday 3, lies of p.
Also RimWorld just came out with a vehicle mod. And Stellaris is getting a new update…
It’s fine. Completely fine. I don’t have to wait because of home and job responsibility and feel terribly bored and at the same time gobsmacked with how much I have to go through and spend.
Stars. Cosmos. Gods. Animus. Antrum. Unbirth. Anima. Animusphere.
I feel like that reference is too obscure
I still think it is unfair he got all kind of buff because he did fake singularities and we got none, stupid Kirschtaria and his hacks.
Tbf protag is a shit mage. Wodime however is the peak Plus Wodime wound up getting laid a bunch because of MedB.. Like as far as cryoter go Kadoc was the worst but still did a lot of stuff. While protags just friends with a bunch of dead people. and put hands on Goetia
The protag is a shit mage though that could be fixed if the writers allowed you to have some choices or didn’t retcon some of the things already given or said, just having Schatach and Kiichi Hogen as your teachers alone should be a significant power up, not to mention eating dragon hearts or Andersen np that would make us worse than Kiara.
I disagree with Wodime being peak, that’s Rin and he was too physically messed up and disinterested to actually get laid with anyone or anything.
I’ll stop derailing the thread here now.
I mean Wodime’s whole characterization is he’s the peak minus a few exceptions. Especially in the lostbelt where everything is perfect for him. Which is why only him and Daybit (who is also super duped up because of outside circumstances) are confirmed to have been able to handle part 1, which includes super assassin Pepe, Beryl who can just upgrade his existence, and an immortal elemental. I mean even the OG Fate, Zouken was the strongest mage as the only one who can take on a servant in his prime. Although discounting Zeltretch. It is a bit weird to compare Rin who fights like a normal master, hasn’t had a complete education and can’t take on a servant, to Wodime who takes on Pantheon Zeus even if not at full power. I mean sure he was dying but he team wiped us and took a hit from Rhongominiad.
Og CCC Kiara literally got strong off of Anderson and eating the alter egos. Also she’s cracked in like every timeline going by her Tsukihime version.
And finally made circuits are passed down so Anderson would be our best bet anyway, and that’s based on you interesting him.
All this Fate talk, can we drop meteors on people? Body hop as an immortal vampire while we go insane?
Is magic like some kinda of weird external things or is it like coming from the soul? Is there like copies of dead people running around?
If I make an exact copy of someone’s brain would it have the same magic?
Watching people talk about things you literally have zero knowledge about.
Perhaps…
There are several ways to bodysnatch. But doing so permanently would involve making significant changes to yourself, or losing something significant.
If you were feeling like becoming a creature, then sure, ghouls are the best examples of a similar existence, being able to replace and imitate the beings they devour, with all their memories and most of their abilities. There are worse things, that are capable of even more than this, predators from beyond. Some have sought such power.
Another way to do it would be a permanent form of possession that would transfer your soul to the new body. Anything that’s purely physical will be lost, and replaced by your new vessel. There are some things that might carry over, like curses.
Both and more. There are internal and external parts and that also really depends on what kind of caster you were. Magic is the blood of chaos
As a sorcerer, magic is something you’ve awakened in yourself, an ability that became innate like a muscle or organ, but it depends on both the soul and the body. Your body is adapted to magic, in a way most other casters won’t be, you will be a vessel for magic and it will flow through you like blood. Something similar will happen to your soul, and those two things intersect, they are part of each other, sever one and you will lose a lot. It will be possible recover that power, but it is like, an actual wound, like tearing off your own damn head to tape it up on another body, it will be slow to heal, and your new body will have to adapt, new channels will need to be made.
If you were a divine caster like a cleric, well Faith is entirely spiritual, it tends to have some effects on your body as well but… say you did exchange your soul with someone, you will find it much easier to adapt and use your powers to the fullest extent again, because your soul is still the same and the physical aspect of your magic is relatively minor.
That can happen. Whether as echoes of them, a presence left behind as they passed on. Or imitated by some manner of creature.
It’s an interesting question, I have to admit I didn’t really think about it before.
If it was a wizard for example, its memory would retain patterns and rituals, the brain would retain the conditioning they go through to be able to cast in the first place, things like that. If it was perfect, it might work seamlessly, but having even a 99% right copy would be incredibly unlikely. The nervous system is an important part of the casting process for wizards, so having the brain, spine and nerves would make for a better copy.
The guy I quoted use magic that rearranges the solar system into a giant mana circuit and dropping meteors on people. (Which is based on a geocentric solar system, which in Fate was canon until Isaac Newton screwed things up and made it heliocentric, which also messed up magic for a lot of people. The guy however used it because he helped rewrite history in a way that Isaac Newton didn’t exist and because he was the only one who used it (as magic is limited, the less people using a method the better) he fights super Zeus(absorbed most of the Greek gods) and wins
Which Is why I quoted him in response to the stars align.
My flesh crafting dreams have hope
Sounds like they worry about getting replaced by someone they eat.
A bizarre adventure.
-wondering why no new update since were in 2023-,~puts it on tacking to keep a eye on it~
Ah yes, the average wednesday in the world of Fate.
“Why yes, I am grinding for a magic wizard brain amalgamate, how could you tell?”
Don’t you?
Just wait till you see the dick wizard Merlin, MedB being a rider for going through 6 guys in 1 night. Van Gogh communes with outer gods central American gods are actually a parasite from outer space that road on the meteor that killed the dinosaur. Greek gods are alien machines colonizing worlds. Atilla the hun is an alien weapon meant for killing gods.
Flesh golem shall be my heir.
Is that what they mean by, you are what you eat?
New update: Chapter 3
A few typos were removed, some changes were made to the prologue to make way for new future mechanics, overhauled sex and gender system.
But more importantly the 13k-something chapter 3 has been released. Please enjoy and tell me what you think!
What’s next:
Chapter 4, a bit of a shorter chapter focused on meeting two brand new characters.
Overdue prologue and chapter 1 revamp, integration of the new stat system and stat screen.
