In this life, there are many worlds. Separated by space, time, even differing dimensions, they are all nonetheless connected to each other. And in connecting to each other, they weave a great web, unseen by mortal eyes. And at a certain point, they each cross over. That point, is the Nexus. A bastion built millennia ago, by men or perhaps gods, to study and observe other worlds. Those who guard it are sworn never to interfere with the other worlds, only to observe, and to record, and to report, for the benefit of their own societies.

But there is only one who remains. In his desperation, the sole guardian seeks to protect the Nexus by any means he can. By the only means he can. Regardless of what taboos he must break.

We've been doing this for a good long while now. Almost eight years. It seems a fairly appropriate time to revisit old characters, and tell a new tale with them, just for grins. One last hurrah, for old times sake.

So here we go: Legacy FEF! Ten characters from FEF history will come forth to save all of creation with the power of being absolutely broken. Because we're using third tiers. Yeehaw.
Relevant sourcebooks will be here and here and here.

Quote from: Rule Changes
Fire Magic has no category effectiveness vs undead
Thunder has no category effectiveness vs monsters

Charming Flute heals MAG instead of 1/2 MAG.
Gentle Flute heals 1/2 MAG at beginning of phase for 3 turns.
Dragon Flute heals MAG+10.

staff formula is modified to: staff%= staff hit + [(MAG - enemy's RES)*3] + (SKLx2) - (distance between units * 5)


Some important gameplay notes: Characters will have parts of their history and memories inaccessible to them, the degree to which will be informed by me after the game begins. If two or more characters from the same game get in, their memories will be even foggier. This will wear off as the game goes on, but initially everyone is going to have swiss cheese brain. Everyone will also be inclined to help- the nature of the spell used to summon everyone is keyed in such a way that it brings those inclined to assist the caster in his stated goal (protecting the Nexus and wider reality specifically), so villain protagonists and people not inclined to work as a group or take orders from anyone won't be a good fit. Lastly, maps will consist of the heroes using the Nexus's Gateway to travel properly between worlds.

Players should submit legacy characters (either from completed or dead games) as First Level First Class. You are free to adjust your characters original build, particularly if they are several versions old, up to and including reclassing. Your original Personal Skills and Faults will be permitted, but if you decide to change your skills, they will be expected to be in line with modern Personal Skill constraints and requirements. Those selected will be leveled up to Level 10 and then promoted. You may either choose to keep your old affinity or roll a new one, but your levels will be rerolled without exception.

Reserving a second post in case I need it for anything.


And updates to the Third Tier Classes because I'm sure as shit not re-releasing the book.

Holy Threshold is changed to: The Cardinal can summon a special one tile wall with 20 DEF/RES and 100 HP in an adjacent space once per turn in addition to their standard action. This wall remains in place for 4 rounds, or until it is reduced to 0 HP. Allies can pass through the wall, but cannot end their turn there.

I don't have a hard rule against it, but legacy characters are getting preferred treatment over new ones because of the reasons for which I'm running the game.
