Questions and Answers.
ⵈ ═══════════════════════ ⵈ
a: The change occurs over a few days in roleplay. It can be at least an ooc day.
q: How do you learn about the abilities?
a: The abilities you can slowly learn, rather than have it be explained- you will feel like you became more enlightened about it.
q: What's the fiend's presence feel like?
a: It feels more like a presence than someone you can talk with. You can sense its distaste around Holy places and its emotions can conflict with yours. It can be angry/jittery/excited. Often forcing you to speak a demonic tongue without your knowledge
q: Does touching holy objects harm you?
a: Touching Holy or Divine objects makes an Infernal uncomfortable, but does not harm you. Only touching Holy Symbols will leave a warm imprint on the skin.
q: Can you touch another possessed item?
a: Touching other Fiendish possessed items won't force an Infernal to become possessed again, unless the DM decides there's a conflict of interest in the rolls and asks for it. If an Infernal does touch one, they'll recognize the kin inside the object much like their own. On occasions, the object may act differently than others would (become too hot too touch, etc)
q: Can I recognize other Infernal?
a: Physically, one might be able to recognize another Infernal based on their appearance alone. Other Infernal may at least feel a familiarity with other Infernals when in close proximity (whisper range). They can't recognize them if they're in disguise, but they can sense a kinship at the most.
q: Can Divine Spells to calm you work?
a: Yes- Divine spells can be used to calm you if you don't resist the spell. If there's a request to contest it, you can look up spell mechanics, or see if the spell asks for a contesting roll and do that.
https://hollowworld.co.uk/threads/spell-rolling-mechanics.53209/ - I'll do my best to answer any questions on what roll exactly when it comes to a specific spell, or you can ask someone in the Divine Team.
q: What happens on Holy Grounds/Holy Shrines?
a: Walking on Holy Ground feels uncomfortable at the most- the infernal can sense the fiend inside distates/dislikes it. Walking into Holy Shrines (any one of the Pantheon), feels uncomfortable and unwelcoming. Like you don't belong there and the Fiend inside is lightly repulsed by it.
q: How do you play the Fiend?
a: I've let the players decide if you want to have the Fiend in you take over often, or minimal, or all together.. or if it just enhances some of your character's maliciousness -- so I'll leave that to you. So long as the idea that a malicious entity is inside you, possessing you, is conveyed in roleplay, then you're playing it well.
q: If you die, does the demon go away?
a: Yes, if you actually die without any exorcisms, the fiend entity in you will go away/disappear/essentially 'die' from this realm. You'll be as normal upon revival, and can flavorfully still feel the effects of its loss if you choose it.
Edit: This is only applicable to those Infernal
q: Does mimicry imitate other sounds?
a: Mimicry only imitates tones you can make with your mouth/speak.
q: Can I understand some of the demonic runes on the horns if I look in the mirror?
a: The Infernal Tongue is a strange coded language. You may be able to catch some words, but not all of them, upon the horns. They'll be vile words of torment, pain or anguish. Words like "Blood, Vanquish, Urges, Destruction, Suffering,"
q: How to Summon a Demonic Entity
a: Send a similiar Form through an Event Ticket
Character Name:
Process:
Intention:
Location:
Number of Attendees:
It may potentially be asked to be an Event Thread.
I am attempting to limit solo summons- and only do those for people in the Arcane branch for Faustian Bargains. Please make sure you have someone along with you, unless there's an agreement that it was private.
People who have summoned already cannot summon a Fiend for another month.
This is so that there's no overwhelming the Fiend DM over queries, demands and requests.
Thank you.
q: Can an Abyssal of one Fiend turn an Abyssal of another Fiend into an Infernal?
a: No, Abyssals are immune to all possessed objects made by other Abyssals.
