VN Ren'Py The Fiery Scion [Update 25c] [Vander]

So the question of how likely his progeny will have the flame is up in the air.

Convenient to have lots of fire elementalists in Wildale - because it's close to the orcs and they make good kindling.

If the "Flame" turns out to be racially based and therefore less rare the more there are Djinn descendants, it will be fun to see what the mix of Elf, Djinn and Human turns out to be when the MC's Elven wives produce heirs.

The Orcs, do we want them Rare or Medium Rare?

 

[Dragon1960]

Will we ever see them retake the mine ?

 

[Fulminato]

Interesting. I'd figured that the arcane spark would always come along with the elemental one, even if it's weaker and harder to control because the flame can interfere. Is Henry just very lucky to have both?

"spark" it's the source of elemental lighting magic. as "flame" is for elemental fire, "shard" for elemental ice and "drop" for elemental water. vander explained in his setting djin are master of all elemental magic types, but the their children with other race it's up to random chance the type and the strength of inherited elemental magic. the MC got very lucky and got a strong flame and a decent spark, in addition his arcane potential, probably inherited from his human lineage.

all fire elemental magic come from a flame. and there are more creature be able to use it not only djinn. at the start of the game are noted most fire elementalist come from dragon or efreet descendance.

Will we ever see them retake the mine ?

in a future, i hope. or i bash personally vander with a ceckov gun.

Yes and no. Arcane Wells (the technical name for the reserve of magic inside a body) are inside everyone, but for most people, those are very, very small. The average Well is a thousandth of what Athagan has. And the MC's is bigger. But his Well is not due to luck, well, not only.

Most people can atually use arcane-based magic, it's just not really useful. Like a car with a fuel tank the size of a thimble, you get what I mean?

Elemental magic is incredibly rare, in Aetas, there are two. The only other known elemental magic users are the high-elves, who are the only rivals of Aetas when it come to magic, and they only have four themselves. None are as strong as the MC.

There are other beings were it's more common, but those beings are generally living in the plane of Fire. In the material plane, the one the story take place so far, Djinn and Dragons are known to have elemental magic as default. Djinns are nearly extinct, and the dragons mostly keep to themselves since a war between them and the humanoid races decimated their numbers. It happenned centuries ago, before the curse.

So yeah, Henri is the exception.

I mean, he IS an orphan MC in a Fantasy genera game, so that's sort of empirically implied?

That's a good one.

I never hid that it was a power fantasy. As for the orphan, I wanted to follow the time-honored tradition of the players choosing to make their characters orphans. And while it was not planned, not having to answer the "When are we going to fuck the Mom?" from incest lover, like a lot of other devs, is appreciated.

Will we ever see them retake the mine ?

Yep. But not soon. Right now they are about Eloise and avenging the biological attack on Wildale, and the murder of the Fishmonger's little girl. And it's going to be a long mission with "side quests", so to speak.

Very good post, everything in it is factual, except for the arcane potential.

 

[Fulminato]

Very good post, everything in it is factual, except for the arcane potential.

but the size of the arcane well is defined at least in part by inheritance, because a child of two mage have very high chance to be a mage themself (mean have enough arcana to awaken) so i suspect will be at least one big mage in MC pedegree, and i suppose was from her mom family branch.

I won't say more, that would be too spoilery.

So you're calling future members of the harem as "side quests", gocta.

 

[GibboBtw]

Dev, lemme smash step mother.

it's for the G R E A T E R G O O D...

pls.

 

[Damn1t]

Speaking of dragons any chance we will meet any in the story?.

Will we potentially help kes get her revenge as we pursue eloise or is this gonna be a later thing.

I'm interested what the winter queen will look like when we get to see her.

But in such pedigree how would magic well be defined, half of parents combined, total of their combined or double of total combined, that's my question?

i think works like height. tall parents usually have taller children, but nothing is assured and random chance has his part in the equation.

so... is mab going to be a love interest?

 

[Vanderer]

Ah, I don't answer those questions anymore, because I try my utmost to uphold my word, and sometimes I change my opinion on who is going to join as I write the story. I mean, the main beats of the story are already set in stone, but I like to have wiggle room between those, you know.

But I will give a little spoiler on the next update:

Yep, but you never know, shit happens...it's complicated because she has a very good reason to hates the Iron Quintet. And there is the matter of her daughter, who's going to be another sort of headache...

The second sentence I don't get, seems that you forgotten a word of two.

Yep.

yeah i probably should've added a quote there:

this is a reference to genetics, the basic concept at least without going into depth
