when posting on a forum
one should choose an approproate thread
to spend their waking hours
and the ones they should have been in bed
they should choose a likely picture
they should choose their name with care
they should avoid adding personal details
if theyre not up for a scare
they should post with gay abandon
they should post with literary might
they should post with wit and wisdom
they should never post with spite
and when the day arises
that their posting time is done
they should check their posting status
to see how well theyve done
are they casual conversationalist
are they posty mc posterpants
are they posting more than neurovore
are they ever? not a chance!

I would imagine that the functioning of magic is going to be pushed off pretty late in the preview cycle. It is, after all, one of the major selling points of the whole system. It's one of the most exciting parts of the strip tease that is the preview page, if you will.

Black Court... euuugh.  Right out of the box, we aren't "supporting" the black court type as a playable PC (partly an 'expense' issue, partly a ... they're relentlessly evil issue).  That doesn't mean someone couldn't hack together a home game where they were.  But it's not in our current plan to suggest that players go for playing walking, stinking, dry-rotting corpses with a relentless hunger for human blood.

I think you are missing my point.

My point is that it seems silly to assume that every natural weather phenomenon is the result of the political struggle in Faerie.

Because, in keeping with the point I made, the missing portion of Summer's power would have become part of Winter, further unbalancing the Courts.
