Scion in In Nomine

dataweaver · 08-04-2011, 07:33 PM

Has anyone considered using Scion's Pantheons as a touchstone for fleshing out the Ethereal gods of In Nomine? How much of the Scion setting do you think could be incorporated into the In Nomine setting without damaging it?

One thought I've had: "Legend Forces". The idea here is that the Ethereals have something that's roughly analogous to Word Forces; but for Ethereals, they're story-based: whenever something happens that substantially strengthens a given Ethereal's Legend, he gains A Legend Force; as the Legend atrophies, he sheds Legend. Normally, Legend Forces are unique to Ethereals; but there is one exception: a human with an Ethereal heritage and who has Awakened to the Symphony can also accrue Legend. And yes, I figure that something similar could hold true for that rare specimen, the scion of a Celestial: where the scions of the Ethereals can develop Legend Forces, the scions of the Celestials can pick up Word Forces.

Comments?
