It has been recognized for some time now that Humans/Hunters are vastly disadvantaged by this Staff. We created a store to try and counter it, but it was a poorly thought-out attempt at a solution because anyone can start out with pretty much any items/weapons they like -anyways- and the store was therefore to null effect.
We believe we have fixed the problem, however, by implementing abilities special to Humans/Hunters. We have also permitted Humans/Hunters the ability to train their attributes (strength, intelligence, wisdom, endurance, and speed) a total of five times per attribute. If a Human/Hunter does so, that attribute will be considered equivalent to a Supernatural's (ex.: Demarco trains strength five times and is now as strong as a Supernatural). The only exception to this is the attribute of intelligence. If a Human/Hunter trains their intelligence five times, they will be smarter than Supernaturals.
IT IS FROM THESE ATTRIBUTES THAT HUMANS/HUNTERS GAIN THEIR ABILITIES.
There are defensive and offensive martial arts that give Humans/Hunters an edge in combat. These martial arts are physically taxing, however, and can only be attained by gaining the proper prerequisites as outlined in the second part of the Compendium of Abilities in the Abilities board. Each ability has it's own requirements and some will be more difficult to attain than others.
The anticipated effect of this change is that Humans/Hunters will have a fighting chance in the event of coming into a fight with a Supernatural and potentially becoming more lethal than a Supernatural if someone devoted enough time/effort to one. I believe this is the change that was needed for Humans/Hunters and I hope to see someone put it to good use soon.
Existing Humans/Hunters can post in the empowerments board if they wish to train/learn skills and if you do not have points due to use of the store, your points will be reimbursed to you.
Please let us know what you think/ask a question/flame the idea/whatever in this thread so we know if we're doing things in a way that you (the playerbase) likes. Feedback always helps you, your peers, and us.
