I believe you, Kappa.

(Also my brain went "isn't it [something Google might know]?" for a few seconds)
The WAFFLES will submit to this indignity.

Question: if I'm creating a daeva version of one of my characters and want to know which type they'd be, how do I do that? Is there an actual personality quiz somewhere, are there specifications/guidelines you can give me, or do you case-by-case it? Asking mostly on behalf of this one guy who can't decide if he's a fairy or an angel.

It's based on sympathy to the magic, in general terms: are you the sort of person who makes things new, or changes things that are, or just shuffles around things that exist? Default to fairy if unsure, most people are fairies.

It occurs to me that “things that have been previously conjured” feels like a conjurable classification but I'm going to guess you'll say no.

“Things Cam has conjured” seems conjurable, but be careful because among other things this includes a black hole. “All conjured things” would take forever. “All conjured copies of my private notebook” does not feel valid to me, unless the notebook itself was originally created by conjuration in which case you might get it. I’m interested if Alicorn agrees.

In the current sandbox, are daeva immune to woodmagery?

Why would they be immune to it?

because they have control over their bodies and can only be hurt a little bit before their immunity to harm kicks in?
