quick question to gad

[kitsune106]

what ways are there to traqnsfer abiltites from one player to another? just curious.

[Shadowman]

Why, there is always the Bascaradine brand Transfer-Tron!

[PaperGolem]

That only transfers experience points.

[Shadowman]

I was of course speaking of the shiny new Bascaradine Transfer-Tron 9001 Mithril Edition! You'll say wow every time you use it, because it now works on abilities!*

*May not work as advertised

[Lord Gadigan]

There currently aren't any reliable ones. You could try a player combo with one... but that has much higher odds of just wiping out your character than succesfully doing the transfer.

Since Papergolem has been such an excellent long-term member, I'm strongly considering letting him transfer 2-4 abilities if he wants to.

Paper, if you were allowed to transfer abilities, which ones would you?

[PaperGolem]

Oh. Well, if I could transfer abilities outright, they'd be:

Dusty-
Ageless One- (Passive Ability, Chronicler of Eternity) +80 Defense against CON damage, Possessor may choose to have a body of any age with no stat changes as an RP power
Chronomancer- (Passive Ability, Chronicler of Eternity) Possessor may select any stat, out of STR, AGI, CON, MIN, and SPI, to use for determining possessor’s turn order and number of extra actions, Possessor may delay the effects of Chronomancy spells that have a built-in or selectable delay as part of the spell for either one more round or one less round, and possessor’s Chronomancy spells cost 50 less MP per level possessor possesses
Expert Swimmer- (Passive Ability, Seakeeper) 15% Drowning Resistance, +500 AGI while in a Zone of Water
Mathematical Knowledge- (Passive Ability, Scientist) +150 MIN that is counted as unmodified for capping purposes
Time Rays!- (Active Ability, Chronicler of Eternity) Possessor may skip an action to fire a time ray that deals 10 CON damage per level of possessor, to a max of level 200, this does not damage Celestials, Angels, Devas, Illuminated, Abstracts, Daemons, Devils, Demons, Holy Ones, Immortals, Fiends, or beings of nonstandard subtypes, Possessor may delay this action for up to 4 rounds
Was Warned About Golf's Deadlier Side- (Passive Ability, Blessing) Possessor is immune to effects named "Golf Weakness"
Tersel-
Form of Moving Light- (Stance Ability, Metamorph) Possessor gains +7,500 AGI while in this stance, Possessor gains 30% Light Resistance, 10% Fire Resistance, and 10% Ice Resistance while in this stance, Possessor becomes Light element while in this stance
LH-014-
Was Warned About Golf's Deadlier Side- (Passive Ability, Blessing) Possessor is immune to effects named "Golf Weakness"

If I had to choose between 2-4 abilities, then I would choose these 3:

Dusty:
Chronomancer- (Passive Ability, Chronicler of Eternity) Possessor may select any stat, out of STR, AGI, CON, MIN, and SPI, to use for determining possessor’s turn order and number of extra actions, Possessor may delay the effects of Chronomancy spells that have a built-in or selectable delay as part of the spell for either one more round or one less round, and possessor’s Chronomancy spells cost 50 less MP per level possessor possesses
Mathematical Knowledge- (Passive Ability, Scientist) +150 MIN that is counted as unmodified for capping purposes
Tersel:
Form of Moving Light- (Stance Ability, Metamorph) Possessor gains +7,500 AGI while in this stance, Possessor gains 30% Light Resistance, 10% Fire Resistance, and 10% Ice Resistance while in this stance, Possessor becomes Light element while in this stance

It's not so much that I want to give them away. I know you really would prefer if people weren't exchanging abilities like that. I just want to get rid of them. Regardless of how powerful they are, or how many other people wish they had these abilities, they are dramatically opposed to what I wanted for these characters. I'dve just sold them outright (to Bascaradine even) a long time ago if I thought it was plausible.

EDIT: Actually, better idea. They aren't abilities, but if I could transfer 2-4 normally non-transferable things, I'd transfer these:

Awards-
Possesses a Group-Attuned Portal Key to Sepherys Production Facility 14, Located In Karneiraspace
Possesses a Group-Attuned Portal Key to The Aetric Sword Mines
Possesses a Group-Attuned Portal Key to Black Xzaradu Tower
Possesses a Group-Attuned Portal Key to The Crypt-Halls of Hashor'Galoon

[kitsune106]

Were or will any abilities be transfered?

yes this is a bump, to make sure not forgotten.

[Lord Gadigan]

Decision reached:

You may transfer-

Possesses a Group-Attuned Portal Key to Sepherys Production Facility 14, Located In Karneiraspace
Possesses a Group-Attuned Portal Key to The Aetric Sword Mines
Possesses a Group-Attuned Portal Key to Black Xzaradu Tower
Possesses a Group-Attuned Portal Key to The Crypt-Halls of Hashor'Galoon

As well as one of:
Dusty:
Chronomancer- (Passive Ability, Chronicler of Eternity) Possessor may select any stat, out of STR, AGI, CON, MIN, and SPI, to use for determining possessor’s turn order and number of extra actions, Possessor may delay the effects of Chronomancy spells that have a built-in or selectable delay as part of the spell for either one more round or one less round, and possessor’s Chronomancy spells cost 50 less MP per level possessor possesses
Mathematical Knowledge- (Passive Ability, Scientist) +150 MIN that is counted as unmodified for capping purposes
Tersel:
Form of Moving Light- (Stance Ability, Metamorph) Possessor gains +7,500 AGI while in this stance, Possessor gains 30% Light Resistance, 10% Fire Resistance, and 10% Ice Resistance while in this stance, Possessor becomes Light element while in this stance

The other two abilities from that list may be removed from your sheets.

[PaperGolem]

It is <done.>

Possesses a Group-Attuned Portal Key to Sepherys Production Facility 14, Located In Karneiraspace went to Glitch.
Possesses a Group-Attuned Portal Key to The Aetric Sword Mines went to Alrick.
Possesses a Group-Attuned Portal Key to Black Xzaradu Tower went to Kierron.
Possesses a Group-Attuned Portal Key to The Crypt-Halls of Hashor'Galoon went to Celas.
Chronomancer went to Kit.
Mathematical ability and Form of Moving Light were removed.

[JTL9000]

Alrick thanks you for the new ability, and looks forward to putting it to use in a future quest.
