@Legate of Mineta: Would it be appropriate for me to portray Uliva as also being aware of and interested in the Albanetti Stone, given her interest in cryptography and her secret knowledge (which I presume includes more than snakes)?

[Legate of Mineta 0]

Sure.

[Rhialto 22]

@Legate of Mineta: I have encountered some very disturbing parallels between Rixenda la Serena and an obscure historical figure named Rixende, which I may write about in greater detail. Suffice it to say, though, that I hope that her mentioning during a random event the importance of using art as part of a class struggle is more than just an anachronistic joke.

No comment.

@Legate of Mineta: Has there been any thought given to making Y2 with an easy mode? I have several ideas for what that could involve.

[Legate of Mineta 0]

Rhi;

No, Academagia is already a sandbox, so easy mode is implicit, I'd say.

@Legate of Mineta: I have an idea for a special scene accompanying the PC's first kissing Zoe Melis if the PC is a student at the Schohanwicht, focussing upon the PC's inner torment. May I write such a scene? I am fully aware that it would probably need to be edited in order to fit with future years' treatment of Zoe; but could I write it?

Sure, go right ahead!

I think for the secret background in combination with a other background that the player let stand out, like noble or royal, the parents might give the player the hint to stand out less if (s)he performed to flashy in Y1.

S;

A *very* good suggestion.

I have something happening like that in my Y2 adventure about Zoe Melis and Eliana Carosi (which I want to complete once I am finished with my medical issues - I do not want to write about a hospital before I go to a hospital).

I think a check if the player have equipped a music instrument, together with a roll equipped music instrument skill vs X and text "<player> play on <equipped music instrument>" could come handy in the next years if music still will play some part in RE and adventure there.

[Legate of Mineta 0]

S;

Yes.

@Legate of Mineta: Well, I feel foolish in my misreading Pelia as a clock-making coffee brewer during Y1. But would it be improper for me to write her as a coffee/drink seller during Y2? I figure that making drinks for sale would be a comparatively non-controversial and profitable use for her brewing skills - and I could portray her as bitter about her part-time job - as too many people are in various situations.

[Rhialto 22]

@Legate of Mineta: Although I now realize that Pelia should not be portrayed as selling coffee, but would it still be acceptable for me to write content in which Pelia uses her alchemical skills in order to make money and mentions legal expenses (related to how old she really is?)? Many other characters (including the PC, possibly) are trying to raise money - and Zoe Melis reveals that such money-raising efforts need not be trivial.

Rhi;

Sure! You never know what may happen in editing, but...;)

I think it would be a interesting idea that the Academagia lend study material for the summer break for students who announce their will to change the college before returning home and have a good standing with the "new" Regent.

[Legate of Mineta 0]

It's a cool idea.

Would Orso Orsi really let the player guard Ilaro when the later first helped Ilaro before switching to the Legate main adventure during the duel between this 2?

For Random Event - Soup I think a Investigation with Field Medicine to check on her with 2 or 3 new exits to get her cured would be good. For the exit:

1) could be brew to make her a soup that cure her 

2) bring her to the nurse (or the nurse over to her)

3) Revision could work also if high enough

In general I would change the wording of this RE a bit that it can be used for a random friend of the player with the same gender.

[Legate of Mineta 0]

I'll pass'em on!

[Schwarzbart 1,065]

In RE Tavern 13 my character sit together with his biggest enemy and his best friend in a tavern, why would I sit with my enemy in the same corner of the tavern even if he is from the same College? I think Y2 need a bit more difference in random college student results ^^

S;

That...can still be a little weird in Y2, if the right actors aren't selected.

for the clockmaker's daughter I think it could be a interesting follow up to player with wealthy parents that the player suggest them to support Pelia with some money now with the argument that she appears to be a genius in Revision magic and Alchemy for her age.

Or for a PC with the Secret Heritage to mention to eir parents that Pelia claims to be able to create life and is a skilled but secretive mage.
