There are several ways to gain abilities within Litharia. For the new Litharian, here is a basic run down:
1. Post Count Accumulation – This is the easiest and most common way of gaining new abilities. Every fifty posts, your character gets to add one of the abilities outlined in his or her genus book to his or her collection of skills. All of these skills must be within the character’s core affinity, that affinity taken at character creation. Affinity abilities run all the way to four hundred posts.
2. Random Event Awards – In addition to post count accumulation, the gods may also award characters with abilities. The Fate Award, given every month, is an example of this.
3. Contest Awards – Characters may receive abilities as contest prizes.
4. Referral Awards – Referring a new member will get 10 added to the post count of the character of your choosing. (other rewards may be discussed)
So what happens when your affinity is maxed out? Is that it? Am I done?
Of course not! Your character may still continue to grow.
600 Posts: At six hundred posts, the gods will offer you a new ability, pet, magical item, or other gift.
800 Posts: The character may take on a new affinity to master. Shapeshifters will gain a new form to match.
-A character must master the other affinities within its species before moving on to the next.
-Halfbreeds may master affinities from either side of their heritage, but should start with the two they were born with.
-Characters who started out human but were changed into another species may take on their original affinity
- The affinity must be mastered normally, with the character getting the starting ability at eight hundred posts
1400 Posts: The gods will offer you a new ability, pet, magical item, or other gift.
1600 Posts: The character may take on a new affinity.
And so on and so forth.
