Glyph Creation Revision

Status
Not open for further replies.
Antoniofer seems to have a good idea to me.
 
As far as I currently understand, we need to update the glyph creation page to platform creation instead, and then remove links to it from all characters that do not use it in such a manner.

Is that an accurate assessment @Agnaa ?
 
Then it should be removed or replaced with a description or more appropriate powers link.
 
Well, what does it do?

Maybe just Creation if it doesn't do anything in particular.
 
Its usd as a channel for elemental attacks as well as a means of applying gravity manipulation to physical objects
 
Probably just stat amp and gravity manip then. We don't tend to give abilities for the particular visuals abilities use.
 
Magic and element/gravity manipulation aren't incompatible, several powers can be done via magic. If performing certain power shows a rune or glyph in mid air or in the palm of the hand then is simply aesthetic.
 
I agree with Agnaa and Antoniofer.
 
Looking at the profiles, there are some that just list the power without an explanation or reference whatsoever, like Nipponverse characters and Hero of Lore.
Or others, like people from BlazBlue only have "can create glyphs" and nothing else.
What do I do in this case? Just remove it?
 
I think so, yes. Thank you very much for the help.
 
Like, controlling their own attacks? Sounds like Homing Effect at best; also, again, simply manifesting runes and symbols is only aesthetic.

No, ordering a spell to do a specific tasks depending on the glyph used (like, by using specific glyphs one can order their attack to "trap" the opponent or "get larger")
 
In that case is just magic or at most you can combine it with something else.

The main point is that the current page will become platform creation or something, I'm not sure, but the word Glyph itself is misused and will be removed/changed.
 
I agree with Saman and Antoniofer.
 
Bump.

Can somebody remind me and others what we still need to do here please?

I think that this is the state of things.
 
Bit busy today but if I remember I can get around to this later (say, after 10 pm).
 
Thank you both for helping out.

Tell us here when you are done.
 
I will be busy for most of the day. Though, I do think I can start on the update tonight around 8:00 pm with my bot.
 
Thank you. I appreciate it. We need to change the Glyph Creation page itself to Platform Creation as well though.
 
Well, I can tell you two things:

Most of these don't have any explanation for their ability, thus making it hard to judge

The D&D pages are actual platform creation.

I work tonight, will try to go through more pages later, but like... most of what I see is unknown territory.
 
Okay. Thank you for helping out.

Is somebody willing to modify the Glyph Creation page to Platform Creation instead? I can obviously unlock it for editing and then rename it for you.
 
I have been thinking as I was making changes.
It is fine to remove the Glyph Creation ability and the related category on the profiles without any justification to speed up changes because most profiles don't have justification?

Zora Ideale could create platforms but his Glyph Creation was removed
