Questions?
« on: August 27, 2013, 02:04:05 AM »
First, what are non played classes? I don't understand what that means.

Also, what happened to owl post - where characters could write letters to each other. That was actually one of my favorite features of MH where I had the most fun. Could we ever bring that back?

Third - how does wandless magic work as a special feature and would that work for a healer?

Non-played classes are classes that still exist in that particular school, but we don't roleplay them out because there isn't enough interest/activity in them, for example we have Herbology played at Hogwarts but we don't play Dark Flora and Fauna (Durmstrang equivalent) because it's pretty much the same subject.

Owl Mail still exists, my guess is that you can't see it because you aren't sorted yet.

Not 100% sure on the rules for wandless magic so will leave that to an admin.

Thanks, I'll see if I can go back to mysticism then. I didn't realize they had updated the BB herbology professor.

yay! Owl mail! You just made my day, thank you for your help!

I'm not an admin, but I recall a few years back that a member had applied for an ability called Caladrius Relief, which is a unique form wandless healing but with severe limitations to avoid god-moding. I'm not sure if you can apply for an original feature that someone else created,  or if you have to create your own, so yeah, it's best to wait for an admin's take on it :]

I remember her, yeah. Thanks for pointing that out to me. I found the app in the way back machine (yaaaay)

I'll wait for an admin but I hope they say yes. :) :)

Wandless magic isn't a special feature; so much as something that older, more experienced wizards are able to do in a limited way in certain circumstances. I'm sure you've already read through the wandless magic guidelines; while it does mention special features, this really does mean things like elementals (who aren't capable of doing conventional magic once fully trained anyway) and very special cases where there is some kind of special innate ability.

I'm a bit confused as to which SF you want for Seva, now. You've already talked about animagus and metamorphmagus, and now you're looking into wandless healing... we don't ever approve more than one SF per character, and tbh we're less likely to approve one person's original feature for someone else unless the creator has given their approval, so that's something else to bear in mind.

Hope that helps a bit!

Honestly I'm not sure since they'd all work for her given her talent for charms and affinity for transfiguration. I haven't decided yet, so sorry if I'm flip flopping. And Seva should be sorted by tomorrow afternoon, by the way.

I checked both accounts of the driver and they've both been inactive for months. What I may do is change the name and see if I can borrow some of the outline.of the feature but adapt it for Seva and what fits her skills and personality.

how does that sound? Also, tbs m you for answering my question so quickly and to Jon and Luciana. :)

They would *work*, yes, but we're not going to approve more than one SF per character. I'm sorry, but no matter how good the app is, if you get one SF approved, we won't consider a second for the same character.

Hi there, I'm Vannah. I'm not sure that we've met? :)

I'm not sure what you mean by this. Do you mean that she'd be able to heal people without using a wand (as an innate ability), or that she'd never need a wand to do anything?

As Carys said, we do not approve multiple SFs for characters. I'd strongly suggest that you get your girl sorted and then play her for a little while to see what kind of SF might fit her best. :)

Well, no. I wasn't going to apply for more than one. 'Course not.

Oh and I meant as an innate ability. Woops

I posted a special feature advice form in my box, which one do you think would work for her?

You can mark this solved, thanks again

Why can't I post in SF apps? I could have sworn I was able to before...I could be mistaken.

Maybe you need to get your first character sorted.

That could be it but I could have sworn I already posted in there. Maybe I got confused and actually posted the app in my sandbox. Thanks again for your help =D
