This website is now officially closed. All topics must be finished, and all character must register on the New Website All ranking exams will be finished and ranked by a seperate proctor, and all money will be reset to $200 for everyone in order to make way for the new currency system, coming soon.

We've been getting a good amount of questions regarding the move and the time skip that the move will created for all characters. So here are a few general questions, along with their answers, and of course feel free to post any more concerns you have here.

Q: What abilities or weapons will we be able to add or expand on?
A: Not a whole lot, honestly. I'd say a few improvements on what you already have, but not by a lot, as well as maybe one or two new techniques. Let's not do a major overhaul, because that would then disrupt your rank, which will not change in the move. As for weapons, …

Type: Science

General Description: Powers over the Laws of Nature/Natural Laws.

Some Base Powers (That all Shrews could learn to use):

Gravity Manipulation: Allows user to disrupt, change, redirect, strengthen, or weaken force of gravity depending on rank.

Friction Manipulation: Allows user to control the amount of friction in a certain area or around certain objects depending on rank.

Magnetism/Electromagnetism: Allows user to control magnetism and thus most metals, the higher the rank, the more metallic substances can be manipulated. Can also be used to effect technology, and other forces/objects.

Enthalpy/Temperature Control: Allows user to shift masses of heat from one place/object to another. If one makes something extremely cold, something else must become in a balanced reverse, totally hot, etc.

Flame and Heat Control: Allows the user to control heat and fire, amount, shape and size produce/manipulated depends on rank.

Ice/Cold Control: Allows user to manipulate cold and ice, shape and quantity/temperature controlled depends on rank.

Electricity: Allows the user to manipulate electric currents and static electricity.

Entropy Manipulation: Allows user to influence the rate at which a system (objects/organisms) becomes disorderly. Amount of disorder created depends on rank.

Um, isn't the Entropy manipulation, and Gravity manipulation, a bit much? I mean, sure people could potentially have them, but for such things to be simply learned...it makes it very easy for people to become extremely overpowered very quickly. Being able to manipulate the natural laws is too much, and the Power over the laws of nature...considering that we have natures on here, you're saying that people can potentially be able to have power equal to or greater than the natures...

Notice the "depending on rank" part I added to EVERY SINGLE LINE.....means that a 1st rank could make gravity like a tiny bit lighter or heavier, but wouldn't be able to do much more than that.....Entropy would be the same idea, they wouldn't be able to increase it more than their rank allows....Unless you can think of a better way to do that....

Also notice that I have Could Learn to use....doesn't mean they are going to....just is a potential thing....Although if you think that its horrible enough to have up here...I can take it down....These were just more of ideas to get people's minds around what each study was about....

Edit: Also have a section in the announcement above this about the rank thing....so it is pretty well covered that people aren't suppose to go and make gravity or entropy, or whatever else way beyond their bounds at a lower rank....or even a medium one.....

I was more just astounded that every shrew can POTENTIALLY have powers over the natural laws, or powers over nature.. It's just like such a grand ability to be handed out like that.
