Sorcery titles 11/02/2013 11:23 AM CDT
Ricinus, is there a mechanism in place yet they will allow for Sorcery titles? It's been a while since this has been commented on and I know you mentioned there are some ready to go barring the Justice system working with them. Can we expect to see any titles redheaded any time soon?

I don't recall ever mentioning any work I was doing for updating Justice to work with certain titles, but once everything with HE and 3.1 calm down, if it's something folks want I don't mind poking at it.

Sorcery titles sounds like necro titles.. going to get in trouble every time you go into a justice zone... well, unless that particular one doesn't dislike Sorcery..

and the argument on this one regarding Sorcery vs sorcery doesn't work, going by 'Sorcerer Soandso' is going to make the public freak out, even if you mean for it to relate purly to one's skill with lower case sorcery.

of course, if you WANT to get hit with the SO death spiral, i suppose there's no reason not to let you..

I don't know where I stand on this. I generally support bad outcomes and backlash for Sorcery, but a sorcerer could very well be nothing more than a practitioner of sorcery (lower case). Perhaps the assumption behind social outrage for a sorcery title would be built upon the assumption that the peasants know no different. It still seems like a grey area.

on the other hand, you still have an NPC with the "title" sort of - ye olde sorcerer's hut on the southern trade route, which hasn't been visited to my knowledge, by the local constables :-).

Just wanted to bump this, would love to see some Sorcery titles introduced to the game.
