Re: Astral plane agreements - huh, that's a very unique thing! For the sake of ease of play, and since Tolkien's ghosts are not always clearly defined, we'll say that there are some special ones hanging around that other characters don't notice, and for whatever reason some have an elemental preference. I'd like to nix the part where they ask for a favor in return - I think it's more complicated than it needs to be if we do that. Is that okay?
Re: Stormbringer. Actually, I was thinking since he is not totally under Elric's control that it would be a good idea to highlight that. Right now it kind of blends in with other text and looks that way at first glance. (Let's be honest, most people don't actually read carefully when looking at these things, and the info post is in part meant for other players to read.)
Perhaps I phrased it badly. He wouldn't "count" as one. He certainly isn't. I just thought that it would be a good idea to use a similar format for the info post, so those glancing over it could see that it's a little more than just an ability of Elric's and has it's own thing. It's an entirely a new situation which we have no set format for.
Perhaps you can highlight him in another way such as putting an italics on the part of the personality section that's his, and then listing stormbringer's individual abilities somewhat separately, like:
Abilities Elric's abilities by himself, and while wielding stormbringer
Stormbringer's Abilities Stormbringer's individual abilities, such as eating souls and moving around, etc.
If you don't like that option either, just come up with some bold/italics/underline/color of your choosing to make more visually clear the fact that Stormbringer's personality and abilities are somewhat independent of Elric's. It's just meant for ease of reading, not for any official purposes.
