DirtyDoritos007 Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Does anybody know? I can’t decide if they are science or mutation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machariel Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 (edited) I would say either Magic Spoiler (originally created by Merulina way back when) or Mutation. Edited January 28, 2021 by Machariel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aberrant Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 (edited) According to the old CoH website, they're a species of animated coral created by Merulina, an ancient goddess from space. So I guess it depends on how you want to define divinity in CoH, along with other supposed gods like Tielekku, Zeus, and the Banished Pantheon, which appear to gain power through belief. Or if you want to call Merulina an alien. If you have to fit it into the five game origins, personally I'd go with Natural, as there's nothing to show that the method Merulina used to create them was not innate to her being. The powers the Coralax themselves exhibit don't seem to require any outside influence at this point so I'd say their powers are also Natural.

DirtyDoritos007 Posted January 28, 2021 Author Share Posted January 28, 2021 But aren’t the hybrids infected humans? I don’t believe they’re natural to the coralax race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TemporalVileTerror Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 We were just having a discussion about the different types of magic and how to define it within the game's narrative over in the Roleplay board: https://forums.homecomingservers.com/topic/24999-discussion-kinds-of-magical-characters/ As divinely-created magic rocks are the source of the Coralax, I'mma say Magic. Kinda like Cthulhuian Deep Ones, but prettier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aberrant Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Doh! I forgot that part. TVT has the right of it then in my opinion. Magic-based coral mutants, where magic is the closest thing to divine power. 1 Check out the Unofficial Homecoming Wiki! Contributions welcome!

Greycat Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 It's all technology, since they exist in a video game. *nods* 2 1 Primarily on Everlasting. Squid afficionado. Former creator of Copypastas. General smartalec. I tried to combine Circle and DE, but all I got were garden variety evil mages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zepp Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Clarke's 3rd law. Science would seem appropriate for first gen Coralax, ones in game I would probably consider natural.

merrypessimist Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 They're magic. Created by a goddess of magic to be... something. I'm still not sure why the crazy bint did it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
