Limitations of Magic

My fault then. Kane's actually stood stock still for hours in the same position on a rooftop. When people believe Kane to be a statue, I usually give them the benefit of the doubt and stay quiet, unl…

Limitations of Magic

For my own part, I think being vulnerable is just fine. I don't roleplay so that I can be invulnerable. I roleplay so that I can be challenged, and so that I can add flavor to other people's roleplay…

Limitations of Magic

Kane Qork arrived in New Babbage as a gargoyle, a creature made from a stone statue and animated by an enchantment which sealed a living spirit inside the stone body. It turned out, as part of a rat…

Limitations of Magic

I don't know if you're referencing when I commented to Father Moonwall that I would make him extinct by eating him (after he said his church would make dragonkind extinct), but I was being intimidati…

For my own part, I was a fantastical sort of creature, if you use a plain human as a basis -- a gargoyle. I figured it was perfect for a Victorian-era city full of grime and shadows and rooves. It turned out it wasn't right for New Babbage. I wish…

Once again, this city mystifies me and changes me in ways I could not conceive. Having fallen victim to a total drain of my already low enchantment, my stone body became completely inert. I could not move or speak, but I could hear. Masters Klaus…

XTC - Rook. Even before Kane's current shape. He began life as a raven (Corra Nacunda) and became a gargoyle shortly before his turn in New Babbage. The song speaks to the mystery, wisdom, and melancholy that Kane seems to have from time to time.…

*raises a wing* D&D and other games. Does it affect my roleplay in New Babbage? Only insofar as I have a fair idea of how to draw out a shared idea into a shared story.

You and Sheryl should compare notes. There's always cake if coal supplies run low.

Recorded to wax memory cylinder. I have been given new life and new shape by Masters Klaus Wulffenbacher and Mason, Scientist. My stone gargoyle body was drained of every last bit of enchantment, when young Gilhooly the mouse activated an anti-mag…

What has brought you to New Babbage and SL Steampunk?
New Babbage is a city of wonder and people of surpassing heart.

Steampunk is a philosophy that looks romantically to the past and hopefully to the future all at once.
Could you provide a bit of background about yourself?
I am a steam-driven automaton in the form of a raven. My former stone gargoyle body was wiped clean of all enchantment, and I was removed from it. Klaus Wulffenbacher and Mason Scientist provided the means to occupy this automated body.

Kane Memory Recording #000-001

Recorded to wax memory cylinder.

I have been given new life and new shape by Masters Klaus Wulffenbacher and Mason, Scientist.

My stone gargoyle body was drained of every last bit of enchantment, when young Gilhooly the mouse activated an anti-magic device, which harmonized and resonated with a similar bracelet-format device which Lo had given me earlier. This bracelet device played havoc with my ability to repair my stone body and fused itself within, completely wiping any magical essence fro… Continue
