I would go out on a limb and say that if, for example, a Neutral or Positive Energy matrix item or being is transported into a Negative Energy Dimension, then I'd allow - under an IQ check with maybe a -2 or -3 to the roll- the energy matrix type could be determined by a Sense Dimensional Anomaly Temporal Spell.

You know anyone can send me a PM anytime :)

To answer your question in my opinion it can all be sensed by a Shifter if they roll successfully under their "Sense Dimension" Skill. All of the dimensional makeup will be known to them if they take the time to meditate and open themselves up to the dimensional nuances.

Thats my take on it. Anyone else feel free to chime in :ok:

maybe I'll make that skill open to any Dimensional Traveller-type mage class and that should handle it.



You could always make a spell out of it.

Could use some TW device based on a the Temporal Spell, and perhaps Eyes of the Wolf as component spells.

hmmm. just a question of curiosity, why? one of the things I've always liked about PW was that there was no FTL communications.

since each dimension has it's own "energies" or "makeup" would it be possible for a Shifter (or other accomplished mage) to discern these ? (whether it be via a spell or OCC Skill, etc).


Maybe the Psionic ability Read Dimensional Portal could be of some use?

Interesting ideas people are putting forward.
"Your Grace," she said, "I have only one question. Do you wish this man crippled or dead?"

"My Lady," the protector of Grayson told his Champion, "I do not wish him to leave this chamber alive."

"As you will it, your Grace."

That is a disgusting thought! But it might work.

it's also reasonably intelligent has great senses, a defensive mechanism (spits acid) and can send and receive empathic signals...almost tailor made for the Pleasurer as a pet.

won't be a full-on familiar, but still a nice little friend. :D


You are correct, infact they would be something like GLoop and Gleeb from the Herculoids!!

On the right hand corner of this message is a "Quote" button. Press it and it will bring you into the "reply" box with everything quoted. You can also see how the code work. But its looks like this:

Code: Select all


[quote]  please your quoted text between "quotes" [/quote]

To put a person name do it like this:

[quote"posters name between quote"] place other text here [/quote]



You can learn a lot by hitting the quote button and seeing how the other poster format their posts. I do some HTML coding so this this came pretty easy to me.
