TW help needed

Unread post by Dunia »

Just for fun, I would like to see if one can make the following:

In Battlestar Galactica, the cylons can resurrect themselves, when one dyie at one place, your body is resurrected at a safe resurrection hub elsewhere. Will this be possible to do with TW?

If so, please tell me how its being built.

Love
Dunia

Obviously you'ld need resurrection, but I would say the best spell for the chain would be Soul in a Bottle.. Splits the soul, so one part can be removed from the body itself.

You'd need a pretty expensive spell chain with likely the following:

Resurrection (or restore life if you're just working with humans)
Summon the Dead (so your body makes it back to the 'hub'. Remember, all 'return to life' spells need the cadaver)
Lifeward (since it has the ability to tell when you're being damaged and not your armor, you could rig this to tell the device you've died)
I'd also toss in Restoration and Teleport Simple so you can get your stuff back and be in decent shape when you get there.

That woat works but it isn't really the same as it is on Battlestar Galactica.
They get a new body and obviously their possessions aren't transferred with them to their new location.
Your spell is actually better but it isn't the same.

I would use more technology than magic - whatever the hell it is they do to make Transferred Intelligence Robots, I'd do that. Rig the machine to cast "ID Self" to pluck a clone from another dimension, use consume Soul on it to get rid of the company and use the tech to transfer the intelligence.

That could be considered a little evil though...
