Below is an outline of our suggested nerfs for your character. Keep in mind that you have the option to discuss these with us if you would like changes, and may look to buying back abilities in future:
[ ♆ ] Per mod discussion, many of Wei's abilities as they pertain to spirits will be nerfed entirely upon entry to LifeAftr. Attempting to summon, control, or otherwise speak to ghosts will prove useless. This will affect any spiritual aspects of Wei's abilities of demonic cultivation, summoning undead, the evocation and rest skills, the summoning of the painted eyes, and his spiritual empathy.
[ ♆ ] Wei will, however, still be capable of animating and controlling one undead creature at a time. It may be no larger than a dog in size, and he will be unable to raise himself. In the event of his death, he will be subject to the same penalties as any other. He may upgrade this limitation to two undead creatures at a time. You are welcome to keep his in-canon restraints of needing to actively restrain and control the undead via whistling and music, and the risk of deterioration of Wei's body and mind, as you see fit.
[ ♆ ] We recommend use of a permissions post for Wei's ability to musically influence others, for other players to fill out as it pertains to their characters.
[ ♆ ] Wei's skill of paper metamorphosis may remain, though its use will be limited to one hour per day, total.
[ ♆ ] As is the case with most magic-users in LifeAftr, Wei's abilities will be limited to start with. His ability to use talisman magic will be equated to spellslots, which limit the amount of spells that can be cast per day and start at three slots only. This means that he may choose three talisman spells to make use of consistently. The option to access further slots, and therefore further talisman functions, is available further in the game as a reward or Item Request.
