Explainer

  • Fantasy: The Nomad Soul (could also be a Nomad Tadpole)
  • Gameplay: Target a NPC (ally, neutral or enemy), it becomes the Hero (Your main character).
  • Motivation: Creative and versatile gameplay: Live the game under different perspectives,
    use enemies skills, try different mechanics, solve challenges, adapt on the battlefield. Increase
    the depth of NPC stories, as they are now playable. Multiples interlaced stories in one big game.
    Replayability is immense, as the combinations are exponential.
  • Embody: Sarevok, Nine-Fingers, Omeluum, Elminster, a merchant, a rat: Any NPC can become your Hero
  • Hero: Keep memories (safe password, treasure chest location), skills, dialog options of the Hero
  • Keep equipment: Donate all your equipment to your target, then roll for target possession
  • Hardcore Friendly: About to be killed ? Select a target and possess its body in order to start a new life
  • Party Swap: Controlling another Hero means you can swap parties. Will you kill your old shell ?
  • Limitations: Cooldown, Cost (XP, Stats penalties, charges), Mechanics (cannot re-possess a previous body)
  • Hero Swap: Innate Skill (Origin Character) or Acquired Skill (Quest, Potion, ...etc.)
