Welcome to Imythess, the border between dreams and reality. We hope you enjoy your visit.

Imythess is a creative writing board where you narrate the story of a character in the medieval land of Imythess, on the planet Chaon. Each topic is an opportunity for your character to interact with the world and its peoples by cooperatively writing pieces of a story with other members, one post at a time. We call this role-playing, because you assume the identity of your character as if it were your own.

In order to play, you must register an account for each character you would like to write about, and begin their tale by filling out their basic profile information: Race (human, elf, demon, etc.), class (warrior, mage, etc.), physical appearance, and any other personal details you would like to describe. You are also encouraged to come up with some background history information for what your character's life has been like up to the point at which their story in Imythess begins.

There is no approval process or application required to join, so long as you follow the rules then you are free to write whatever character details you choose. Registration is simple, fast, and completely free.

Abyss Bound & Alignments

So I believe through the rumor mill I have heard that we are doing away with alignments?

In some of the Abyss bound abilities - it has to do with alignments. So if we are doing away with that, then will their abilities change? I plan on being an Asmodai.

Example:
Abyssal Ability I:
◾Asmodai: Scent of Prey - You can detect non-evil beings by scent. You can also tell the difference between those of the good alignment and those who are neutral, though the scent of neutral beings is weaker. The skill Track to be used with non-evil scent.

You can pay an extra one-time fee of 50 gold to become unaligned, which gets rid of all of those alignment provisions.

Teo - I understand that, but Imy is getting rid of alignment things overall. So we don't have to pick a side and it is more personality character based. If they are getting rid of it than this ability is going to be invalid for the Asmodai Abyss Bound. So, they may need to insert a new ability to gain and maybe more so through out the entire Abyss bound for each branch. I haven't read that much into it yet.

I was also thinking if we do change this, perhaps we should make it something like this so it is more equal to the other branches you can select, I figured since Asmodai had a bit to do with Nature, but the darkness of it this might be more fitting?

Asmodai: Floral Darkness - You can empower your nature spells with floral darkness, making them damage even good beings normally immune to nature. Your allies are immune to spells augmented in this manner.

True. Most of those abilities can be treated as unaligned, though, so I'm pretty sure that the abilities wouldn't have to be revamped, or if they would, they'd just be reworded a bit. The general idea would stay the same.

So, if we were talking about the ability that you quoted above, it would turn into a general tracking ability.

Edit: If you feel like you want to take a crack at revamping the PrC, you should! Propose some changes over in the Suggestions forum. :)

If, this comes to pass, I assure you that the staff will take care of any and all incidents pertaining to alignment within the current system. In the mean time, like Teo said, you can always pay the fee to become an unaligned Abyss bound, and feel free to submit your suggestions too!
