I'm sure there's a thread on it, and if so, could someone point me in the right direction... I'm looking for input / discussion about the convergence between the Magical and Digital 'realms'. One of the characters in my campaign wants to do some research about it, and I need ammo to throw at him.
Basically, the assumptions that spur the research are the obvious, and I'm assuming (hoping?) that they've all been discussed: Complex Forms = Spells Fading = Drain Augmented Reality = Astral Perception Virtual Reality = Astral Projection Sprites = Spirits Resonance Realms = Metaplanes Event Horizon = Watcher on the Threshold ... there's a ton more examples. Anyone? |
