Hi sorry I missed this!

I know I've already shared this thread with you, and there's some notes here and there but I really have to work on better resources so they unfortunately don't really exist at the moment.

tbh the best way to go about it is to work out a character and then make them fit the universe. If you've got any specific question, ask them here and I'll write something up, be it about a Clan or something else :3

Thanks for the interest!!

ah, I see...
I don't really use my characters outside of drawing them or translating them to other systems tbh. I want to write a story with their original stuffs one day but I'm rly not sure what to make it abt.
I have a shitoka, could prolly make it like a misha/mao foxxo with minor weather manipulation stuff I guess. wonder if that'd even work or if i should try smth else.

anyway yea the (e^ix)um system just looks complicated and there's prolly way too many categorization shenanigans

How do the Clans and Affinities work? I could probably just make something up for the Aptitude, so I'm not worried about that.

And what are the sliders at the top for, on the status screens?

You can do pretty much anything, Cisum is super flexible of a setting for making fan OCs! What I can say is for my Cisum character, (Cisumian) Carrion, I basically took a pre-existing character and altered her design and abilities to better fit with the Darkness Clan while adding something unique. The affinities are Darkness/Crystal. (Which was most fitting as she has shadow magic in her non-cisum version so figured would fit there the best. And the crystals sounded really interesting to me and considering they are humanoid (as in an anthropomorphic wolf person), having a metals clan connection might be interesting!) Maybe that could help give an idea?

What do you mean by misha/mao foxxo? Also weather manipulation sounds so very cool! If Hurricane can use weather magic it should be possible! I think?

I would like ramble more but I do forget some of the details and I am having some trouble thinking at the moment. SO I hope I made sense and everything.

i was (and still am) stupid and decided to relate her to someone that already exists in-story.

it's a thing the species does in the source world, but they don't do it often.

The affinities are Darkness/Crystal.

how is crystal an element???

I’m working on importing and building on the list of elements we had pinned on the server for a very long time, you can now find it here. I was hoping to have this fully filled in today but it falls under way more work than I estimated, whoops.
