An ongoing chroma-related project, actually. Since I've been learning so much with Kakyoin, I've been doing some experimentation. Limb movement, powering various items. That sort of thing. Trying to apply my studies has been fascinating.
I am. I think to be forward thinking in case he needs a prosthetic for the rest of his life. And it's good to know if magic itself can be amplified with chroma, which in a sense is magic as well.
i've known since i got here that it takes chroma to call star out i never really thought about trying to use that to make him stronger but that's definitely worth knowing
Well, there's the obvious: that chroma is needed to use our powers. I've noticed some differences when I try to concentrate on using chroma mixed with a bit of magic, like my sword. It's faster, but its form is no different. However, it can also be incredibly draining on my chroma as well. So it's like a boost of power, but you become more depleted.
I'm wondering if that's why some of the beings of this world has evolved in such a way where they can siphon chroma from people directly without giving anything in return.
I think it's very possible. Magic in its way can adapt; parts of magic can be alive as anything, and chroma is everything in this realm. So keeping that in mind, I do believe they evolved in some way.
Yes. Not unlike how Sanguis and Iris naturally compliment each other.
It's quite fascinating to consider, actually. To think of how they all became the way they are. In any case, I wondered about that, is siphoning chroma made it easier to assert themselves? I'm not sure.
you know it's funny everybody thinks of the sanguises as these tough predators but maybe the irises are the real top of the food chain luring in the sanguises bending them to their will

i mean i guess that makes sense though
i've known since i got here that it takes chroma to call star out
i never really thought about trying to use that to make him stronger
but that's definitely worth knowing
so what have you figured out

no subject
like they're the ones best suited to that kind of application of magic?
they draw off chroma and put it toward stuff
without ever having to touch their own
like a natural conduit
no subject
no subject
and you know
sanguis dragons produce a hell of a lot of chroma
maybe that fits in
generators and conduits

but maybe the irises are the real top of the food chain
luring in the sanguises
bending them to their will
it'd sure explain a lot
