As for the contract stuff, I am very okay with nerfing! I wrote that contract explain thingy with how they work in his game (or how it would work for a PSL), but I do not expect it to work like that in THIS game and I realized I should have created a better explanation of how I imagine the nerfing to go here ^^;;
Lemme explain how I was thinking these nerfs will play out, and you let me know if it's okay or I need to fix anything! :)
3) Perception of ~Random NPCs~ can be changed. Players could OPT IN if they want, but it's not required. For example, Nick makes a deal to be a rockstar, so this part of the contract, Abby makes it so he gets random fan clubs. Players MAY join the fanclubs/be influenced by the magic (to make everyone perceive Nick as awesome) or they can be like dude no. Also in game effectiveness would be compromised. Maybe the fan club is small, or doesn't last that long. I blame this on the Power Band. 4) I am sorry for the confusion! My brain is a beast. I have created a walk-through example of how this would play out 'normally' (spiffied up his contract page) BUT, along the same lines as air, I think it should only effect NPCs unless a player WANTS their character to be affected, too. 5) Of course! These new 'sources of support', whatever they are, would be downplayed to fit the game. Maybe he can help them unlock an ability they had that is locked (if it works in game) maybe, he'll cause NPCs to just start throwing money at your character. Effectiveness will also vary, thank you, Power Band. 6) PRICES would be downplayed accordingly, you pricey bastard Abby. Instead of those things I mentioned it could be like... a precious memory belonging to yourself/yourlove/your family. The love you have for your favorite book. Your mom's ability to make those cookies you like. The HIGHEST price would be capped by the game-- just someone's own soul. Maybe someone else's if all players are in agreement. (Suzzy Promises Abby Harry's Soul but the Harry player is down to clown) I am cool having this be not allowed though. Just a thought!
Accordingly WISHES would also be downscaled. Can't wish for anything that breaks the game. I also created a better explanation for what happens with the 'energy' you get from contracting him-- it turns into magic stones. What can they do? Nothing that breaks the game either XD; Kind of like a one-shot 'Free Water Magic' or something. Like a spell scroll or some Free SP.
Does this sound okay? I really appreciate you working with me on this, I know this giant space lobster is way too much xD;;
