[Question] Crazy powers for enemies?

Hello patrons, Corintio here!

While the storytelling is getting done and the number of game-breaking bugs is quite low (At least it's been a while since I found one) I was thinking about what in terms of mechanics we can bring to the game that would make it more interesting. So I was thinking about the world Kalyskah lives in and it's not that it doesn't have magic, it does. But most of the magic is tied to objects and artefacts because it's hard not only to gather enough knowledge to be able to manipulate the gifts provided by the Five Storms, but also to be legally practising it in the open without the Seekers knocking at your door and punishing you if you are doing something too funny. But well.. Seekers themselves do use magic to fight magic when needed, and the Karnstein Legion (Kalyskah's Acolytes) also used... mostly dark magic. So based on this piece of lore, what sort of crazy powers would you like to see the enemies using against Kaly, or Kalyskah herself using, that would make the gameplay more interesting?

Once I have better internet, and a better PC, I'm going to pay for the game. This is hella great!

The people who work on the quests are not the same who work on mechanics

More quests, less blink blink

Don't know how hard it would be to bring Gallery mode into single player but you could give Kal a possession ability. That would open the door to espionage quests where she has to play as another girl for... reasons.

I'm a big fan of short-range teleporting and summon/pet magic

I think perhaps using things similar to the disciplines from Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines would be a good idea. Things like Auspex which allows you to see the auras of living creatures through walls, or Celerity providing a speed increase, and so on.

Hmm... Maybe getting bitten by wolves could make Kaly stunned for a few seconds

Kalyskah Team

The "Hypinosis" power is a bit complicated because we need to work on the enemy AI. But it's one of the things we have planed

Kalyskah Team

this is a simple idea and sounds like it can add interesting gameplay. I liked it!

Kalyskah Team

That's a good idea! The only problem is that Kaly only takes sunlight damage when she is thirsty... But some sort of holy light could be fun though

Kalyskah Team

The can summon Bloodhounds now, we are slowly adding bloodmagic =D

Kalyskah Team

Vampires Touch: Stuns the enemy for a few seconds. Bright Shield: Reduces all damage taken for several seconds.

Hypnosis. She flash her eyes red to get someone to temporarily follow her. To where she can either feed or assassinate the.

How about blood magic? Kalyskah could spend an amount of her stored blood to cast various magical effects.

EnigManic

At nighttime, the Seekers could cast an AoE spell that magically surrounds them with sunlight, maybe in a ten-foot radius that lasts a minute or so.

EnigManic

An easy spell could be a certain enemie that blocks your magic until you kill him while the melee enemies rush you. For dark magic the classic fire ball thing some kind of projectile.
