Discussion: Update to the Issue 21 Overview - Sorceress Serene


Agent White

 

Posted

Clarissa Moore stared in bewildered horror at the remains of everyone she cared about. Their bodies were strewn about the candlelit cavern, final screams froze on their pale blue faces, eyes sunken, mouths agape. Their souls had been ripped from them, along with their lives. Cole's witch hunters did not do this, nor escaped daemons. No, only one person could have done this to her coven.

Discover who annihilated the Ravenwing Cabale and what Clarissa Moore, a.k.a. Sorceress Serene, was prepared to do to avenge her coven!

Most interesting part of that article: "Autumnal Control/Autumnal Assault". Sounds like the first taste of a hint on what's coming for Dominators?

Pumpkin holds? Turkey leg immobilizes? Fallen leaf blasts? Back-to-school melee attacks?

Interesting that they're tying this in to the storyline that Cole was once an ally/agent of the Furies... and that Praetorian Cole betrayed that trust. I'm curious to see how far the rednames run with this one.

What annoyed me most about FW's story is that it just ends so suddenly. Many dangling plot threads are left out there that need to be resolved (cough Katie cough). Is Serene really gone for good or will she be making her way back like all good villains do?

Interesting story and all but...

I think that it might be linked to his murder of Stefan Richter at the Well - that made him an Incarnate of Zeus and Tartarus.

What? The one that looks like she's dribbled most of her jam donut down her chin?

Well people have been wanting the dresses the Sybils of Cimerora wear for years now. Maybe this is hint that something like it might finally become usable by player characters. Either that or this is going to be yet another tease of something we'll never be able to get.

The devs have said that it's a "double cape" rig, and would cause too much lag if it was given out to players.

Everyone knows that Turkey Legs cause sleep, not immobilize.


This is a service-oriented business, and it's all
about keeping the player happy over the long term.
So you have to listen and pay attention. If a large
portion of your playerbase is screaming about
some change, you be wise to listen. - Raph Koster

I still think it looks like a goatee more than anything else.
But either way, the look is less "menacing" and more just "messy".

Very cool. Now see, this one should've gone out with issue 20 so we had an idea when she showed up ;9

Right, she's a Ice Blast/Fire Manipulation Blaster on Primal Earth.

Like a cape + wedding tuxedo?

But even so, if the option was for a lioncloth OR a buttcape, I'd still appreciate it. A lot.


OMG! How like, totally kewl are these characters?!1

Yep and we all know the Devs have -never- solved problems or limitations like this before either...

Capes...
Wings...
Moving Tails...



So, I'm not assuming we're going to get dresses like this tomorrow, but I'm also not going to assume it'll never happen either.

Eh, it keeps reminding me of the Mentats from Dune.

It'd be cool to have it as a costume option regardless. Not sure I'd use it myself, but more options are always better.
