Welcome to Gaia! ::

Well think about their criteria, they are looking for the best and brightest and the younger they can influence them the better chance of infusing loyalty in the new recruit. THough I will admit that 2nd century would probably be for special candidates...like the folkloric equivalent to genius. So normally I guess, it'd be...3rd century is being watched for potential, 4th century is being introduced and 5th century is starting at the bottom of the ST.

...I got what you meant. That why as long as they can be killed I'll be fine with it, but I think something like...0-200 is probably a decent rule of thumb for a good portion of the races. I can't imagine kobolds and goblins being older than a hundred at most, maybe 120 or so in the current age but it'd be similar to human life spans.

Yeah so what about Greece? I take it by the time the Macedonian Empire is around they've been exposed.

Very well but can the goblins at least follow the age I thought of, since one is kind of hinted at during the story. Well for the sleeping thing...I guess it could, but then how would the Mummy's curse play out? Can't you see a ghul being in one of the sarcophagi and waking up in the British museum or whenever the curse happens?

...? I guess I will have to look up a timeline of the Macedonian empire then since it's used for the Chinaman.

Idk in D&D they tend to have very short life-spans since they are like the cannon-fodder races, next to like bullywogs or something.

Waht? I'm talking about the one that happened to the British explorers...seriously where did that come from?

Oh I thought you were asking if there was any other example of those two races having a life-span. I just kind of made those numbers...and I know where not in D&D.

I think that's the one...ah hell if that's the case there goes my idea for a Ghul being in history. Oh well. Oh what about St.Victus' dance? Could that be altered or are we sticking to science?

Yeah!

Actually I could see a Ghul like...lurking around the construction perimeter of a pyramid and what, slipping in before the pharaoh and then devouring his corpse. Shame Vampires couldn't be from Egypt, we could probably have said that Hatshepsut and Nekhbet that crossed dressed as a pharaoh were actually the same person...Ghosts might've been possible but I'm pretty sure they both had children oh well~

Like that Laughing epidemic in some African town? Oh could we say the Dance Plague of 1518 or somewhere in there was a result of a vampire's telepathic dominance and they did it for giggles or as a distraction to do something while the humans were busy.

Well silly me for forgetting a link to it, the DANCE! -flairs hands out- Epidemic. Oh also found the laughter one.

So since we figured out a rough idea about the Sancta Temporum/Temporis (I still can't remember if the adjective takes the plural} could I pick out their genders?

Well yes mass hysteria could be ascribed to both that can be rather flimsy. I kind of wanna have something like telepathic dominance for the Spaniard since we could use the Epidemic of 1518 for something then.

...I wanna guess no with the fact that we're using time as a thing...so maybe Sancta et temporis could be another way to say it.

No I meant the seven leaders. The Spaniard, Chinaman, Betelgeuse, Ottoman, and Incan...plus the stenographer and whatever the last member was. I kinda wanna say bodyguard but they are all sort of lethal in there own right so maybe he's an accountant/treasurer in addition to bodyguard. -shrugs- Sound reasonable?

Were they really considered? Or was it one of the explanations provided.

eh I'd explain and finds pics and show you...buh mah powr got cut so phone net sucks. Anyway if it were to come back on I'll find the pics and show you for the elders.
