Requested Topic: What if the In Nomine line editor were secretly a Scales dragon?
Due to http://incandescens.livejournal.com/857773.html
It was no accident that a blue dragon grandchild was assigned as line editor for a game about angels and demons.
Athabaska knew, after all, that the current “magical beings” were the descendants of the human beings who had once been entities infused by pure mana, created by human belief. Now that the mana level was rising once again, it was a matter not just of necessity but of urgency to see whether such beings could be created. Could this be the source of the Area 51 rumours? Were the “little grey men” the new race of magical beings? Someone had to find out, and Athabaska would be that dragon.
What was needed? A confined group of clearly defined entities to be believed in. A group of fervent believers to provide that faith. Technological backup, out of the reach of the American government or other people that might shield the technomancers.
And now he had word that the project was bearing fruit.
Something was gestating at the heart of the SJ Games computer server.
Something called ORC.
