A. Strip them of their spells, to be replaced with a set of base powers.

B. Allow Templars to grant them spells either based on their own knowledge or bestowed as a, "favor," from another Templar.

C. Watch with glee as the Gemmed fawn over the Templars at every waking moment and the citizens glare at the Templars' pet monsters.  Even encourage Templars to scare the citizens now and again with displays of magick.

Pure gold.
Any questions, comments, or condemnations to an eternity of fiery torment?

Waving a hammer, the irate, seething crafter says, in rage-accented sirihish :
"Be impressed.  Now!"

Is the idea to make them more hated ICly, or more Hated to play OOCly?

Thinking its the latter. :)

The joke is everyone already hates them!

Make the occasional Templar-led gemmed lynching a thing. Maybe just in the vnpc world, but it gives pc gemmed an additional real thing to fear. Complete with a coded lynching stand and everything.

Just make casting spells harm bystanders already.

Make them wear a gem... oh wait.  ???

I don't get this thread.
A staff member sends you:
"Normally we don't see a <redacted> walk into a room full of <redacted> and start indiscriminately killing."

You send to staff:
"Welcome to Armageddon."

People acting out the IC hatred of magic users in OOC fashion to show how on-theme and harsh-minded they are?

Peh, haters-come-lately. If they think they will be spared they will be disappointed.

There's no apartments in the north, right? Northern rogues have to be pretty badass in order to survive.

It's like saying "Hey, let's make it so that you have to win an arena event to get the slashing weapons proficiency. Or be a member of the T'zai Byn to get the bludgeoning weapons proficiency."

It's just an oddball idea that someone had, in this case Dalmeth, that's never going to happen and has no bearing to the game at all. Others have posted in the thread to boost their GDB numbers with some other random things. Hope that clears things up for you Majikal.

We probably shouldn't render the gemmed useless to the only clan in the game that will hire them.

Nergal is getting pretty good with coding javascript. Maybe he could whip something up we can attach to gemmed characters so every 10-15 seconds the game hits them with:

Code Select
You really, really suck and make everyone's life more horrible.

Please go die in a hole somewhere.

Seriously all the players hate you. It's not just an IC thing.

... kill yourself >_>

:D

That was a bit douchy, atleast give a constructive reason why.

Or at least post someone actually staring for one hour.  He blinked almost immediately.

Ah well you should just kill those PCs. They're not worth the time of plotting creatively against.

I don't get this thread.

If making them wear a gem doesn't make them hated enough, make them wear -two- gems. Oh boy, now that'd show them who's boss!
"When I was a fighting man, the kettle-drums they beat;
The people scattered gold-dust before my horse's feet;
But now I am a great king, the people hound my track
With poison in my wine-cup, and daggers at my back."

I think this thread is aimed at people like me who are willing to talk to gemmed or make secret friends with them?
