#9440, "Oooh, ooh!"


  

          

If you think about my 'binding is tying your servitor to this plane' angle on re-vamping the way we think of bindings... it would also play well into the old 'he summoned an unbound thingy, that then was left sitting about, and attacked me.' Like when angels used to be summoned and left at guardians in raids, waiting for an area effect or something they were aggro to.

If a proper binding wasn't done in time, they'd simply be forced back to their plane of existance. It also explains why servitors leave after a certain time (weak bindings, on an angel who would love to stay and help the light) and why our plane isn't full of these things normally. I know things like the Talshidar are a biggy but something about them holding themselves here would also explain why conjurers don't walk about binding demons already here. Whew, hope I made that one clear.

For some odd reason, I just got really passionate about re-structuring the way we think about conjurers. Think we could have it sorted before we rebalance them? I really want them to have tasty RP angles that people can understand and are much clearer in the helpfiles. There's some serious holes in the conjurer 'religion' that I think need clarification to the playerbase before we make assumptions.

If you like, mail me. I can toss out a slew of ideas over time and refine this. I swear I've memorised every conjurer-based tome and chart I've ever found (from the planar charts to rants on summoning princely air elementals! Silly Scions) and though I know you guys know better, I figure a view from below might help.

In true Deva style, end rant.

Yhorian.
