I've been on RaL awhile, three years nearly! So I've had some questions that always pop to mind. (Not to mention a couple of these might pertain to a character I'm plotting :3) 1. The topic of slavery on RaL. Was it ever a problem? Is it still? I'm sure it probably happens within the black market. 2. Zombies. Is it possible for a necromancer to create zombies? If so, do they need to be master rank? Even then how long could they hold a zombie, considering the amount of Fronima it may take? 3. Do weredragons and vampdragons still exist? Thela and Drac feel so out of place right now D: 4. Are there any specific companies. Are we allowed to 'make up' our own to have characters employ/own? 5. I know this may be a stupid sounding question, but what about prejudice to LGBT characters? And these are only a few >.>
1. It probably was... I just don't have any real documentation of it at the moment. I wouldn't be surprised if slavery still goes on in some parts as well, specially within more privatized clans. 2. Yes. To create a pendragon zombie, the character would need to be a master. Creating zombie critters, or things that weren't as fully sentient when they were living, would probably be a lot easier to do. As for how long they could keep the body revived... that would depend on how powerful they are. A master could maybe keep a body "alive" for maybe a week without having to revive it again. I'm just pulling the time out of the air though. There's all sorts of variables and possibilities. 3. Yep. They were depreciated from full-fledged species to simply diseased pendragons though. So they're still around — just harder to find. 4. Feel free to make them up. I hope to have a company/manufacturer list that we can add to sometime. :) If you ever do make up a company, send a small paragraph about them my way. 5. No blatant prejudice. The majority of the Ramathian population is cool with it. However, it'll differ from character to character depending on their background/upbringings.
Okeydokey :] Makes my life much easier knowing all this xD Thanks. Edit- 'Nother question, other than the Graders and other famous families that are well know are there any specifics? Can these also be made up? Probably not as leisurely I'd suppose.
Yep, they can also be made up. :] If you want to create a famous character, or a famous family, you're completely free to. There's actually a http://shadowlack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=6116thread here</a> that you can look at. A while back I was looking for famous IC characters to add to the "official roster." Well, actually, I still am looking for them. :P
