It's Rebirth Cycle time, and we're onto 726th arc.
We've seen a bit of a flurry of activity, and new interest this past cycle, a good number of new faces and some returning ones, and others passing by to say hello. Always nice to see folks coming and going.

New Subforums
So, one of the things that has changed in the new site is that the new PSF is visible to everyone. This provides us an opportunity and so, this morning I've created some subforums in there - for completed / approved threads....
The Website: Standing Trials ( / ), referred to through the rest of this thread as the website , our website , the site , our site , Standing Trials , and Trials .

If someone was stripped of magic or uninitiated, having their spark removed, could they become a mage again?
I am assuming they'd have to grow their spark from new again (since the points they earned from the magic after its removal were refunded) so would begin as a novice but with the same...
Am I correct in thinking that a character who goes up or down multiple wealth tiers at once (eg by spending a lot of wealth points) only gets the starting this tier clothes etc for the tier they actually land at, rather than the ones for all the tiers between where they started and where they...
If I wish to have Natalia learn about dreamwalking in theory (information only currently), taking into account that its being redone and I don't want to skip into any trouble spots, can I have her learn info that's currently in the dreamwalking skill write up, up to lucid and walking without...
Possibly a silly question but can you pick up more Non-Skill Knowledge via rp? I would guess yes but have only really been seeing things talking about gaining skill knowledge through rp.
Also in regards to non-skill race-specific knowledge is there any benefit to taking knowledge about the race...
If a Yluhid were to choose Eidisi, or any other race with an uncommon or rare native language, as a second form after learning they are a Yluhid how would they go about learning the language required to pull that off? In the case of an Eidisi would they be able to learn it? Would they need to take...
The race page of the wiki goes into great detail on how to learn the ability to mimic an animal but not so much on how to gain new racial forms. I know I start with two but how would I learn any of the other 13 racial forms?
I'm still building my character and a little stuck. I would like Akiho to have skills in crafting poisons, right from the herbalist knowledge and gathering the plants, to philtring and drying processes to craft the poisons (and their antidotes). What skills should this fall under for her character...
Hi, fresh meat's back on the menu boys! It's me, I'm the fresh meat. *gulp*
This is a really simply ask, and I feel like the answer if probably staring me in the face, can someone tell me how I change my username please? I picked my face model's name to register as I hadn't chosen an in character...
I know we are not allowed to roleplay any NPCs that have magic aside from magic mentors. How do we build up a story to obtain a second mage mentor if this is the case? It would not make much sense for a mage to show up and give my character a spark without any build up, right?
Going up the Tier System, you may access items from the Tiers below you. This means that you may access outfits that are worse in quality than those that are offered to you, if you so please.
You may choose to have lower-Tier clothing *instead* of the clothing offered to you at your own Wealth...
Maintaining a journal to try and figure out what my character can do, and how he feels and experiences the world, I've stumbled on some lore inconsistencies. Particularly, with the Souls Primer versus the Ghost Possession write-up. There are smaller conflicts, but this is the one that might impede...
If they are a novice in mount skill, they may only ride on their chosen mode with novice skill. It's not until competence that they are able to branch out. Once they reach competence, they will need to acquire specialized pieces of knowledge (which don't count toward the skill total), in order to...
Like most things swinging a sword throwing punches requires endurance, so is there a benefit to spell. I definitely understand discipline or meditation but I could see endurance being useful to help weather the taxation on the body from casting.
I’d always asked got different answers through my...
Curious, for my book making I have (pending CS approval) a booking binding skill kit as my heirloom. My question really though pertains to how to get the crafting ingredients. I referred to the crafting section in The Shoppe, but am still confused. In order to make books I need access to at...
Hello. I wasn't sure, so I thought I'd ask. Are spirit gems the same as spirit wells? In this post the spirit Lust turns into a pink gem. Hart was awarded Lust as a spirit, but I never PSF'd her because I wasn't sure what form she should be in;...
I could not figure whether the runes would fall under drawing a picture or writing because it seems to be a language. I take it that putting the runes on your body would fall under hone but I'm talking about using a writing utensil to put runes on paper for learning, etc
What skill would knowledge about animals and plants fall under? For instance if a particular kind of boar did something to show that it was going to charge or what a plant feels like?
This post follows a discussion that was had on the Scalvoris Discord recently. It’s been suggested to me that the forums might be better for a more in-depth discussion. I hope that I’ll manage to express my points more clearly here.
The initial trigger: I was commenting on how Discipline is a...
I'm toying around with magic mentor concepts. I was wondering if it would be feasible for someone with Umbral Hone to get some of their Spark's wiggles out by lucid Dreamwalking (sorry, I know it might be an extra difficult question due to Dreamwalking being reworked right now). Essentially, they...
I was thinking about ways to learn skills and taking lessons came to mind. Is there a cost associated with learning a skill from a self roleplayed NPC?
If I wanted my character to have skis, or skates, or snowshoes for getting around in the snow/ice, would that fall under Clothing (because they're worn) or Household tools (like garden tools) when it comes to the Shoppe? Or something else?
I have looked, I can't find mention of them anywhere.
When I was looking at this mark, I came across this Adored ability. Here's the wiki link: Severath
Divine Grace: This is a powerful healing ability, able to stop all ailments and heal the character or individual from fatal wounds almost instantly. When in use, the Sevrath mark glows a soft...
