== Conversion Notes to 2nd Edition ==
=== Apotheosis Notes ===
==== Legend: The Scavenger Empire ====
==== The epic change ====
Defeated the [[MaskOfWinters | Mask of Winters]]!

==== Faction that can't ignore this ====
'''The [[/Realm]]!''' The First Civil War has come and gone. Now the Consuls that rule the Realm look for an outside enemy to unite their fractious nation.

==== Faction that benefits ====
The Confederacy of Rivers, as led by [[Lookshy]].

==== Faction that was hurt ====
The [[MaskOfWinters | Mask of Winters]] -- defeated but still dangerous!

==== Three factions we're ignoring ====
The Fae, the Lunars, and the Bull of the North.

==== Limit Breaks that caused problems ====
Monkey: gave into a challenge that let the Mask get away instead of being completely defeated<br>
Kaizoku: Hard-heartedness drove [[/SudaRusako | Suda]] away, half-convinced the Bronze Faction was right.

==== Allies ====
Kaizoku: [[/EinoSelin | Eino Selin]]<br>
Monkey: [[/AmbassadorToTheUnfortunate| Ambassador to the Unfortunate]]

==== Defeated Enemies ====
Monkey: [[MaskOfWinters | Mask of Winters]]

Kaizoku: [[/V'neefBarada | V'neef Barada]]

==== Living Enemies ====
[[WalkerInDarkness | Walker in Darkness]] (Kaizoku)

The [[Emissary]] (Monkey)

==== Favors owed from... ====
Kaizoku: The [[TepetEjava | Roseblack]] could be interesting.  Banishing the 2nd circle demon after her head...

Monkey says, "Very, it will be [[/ChaDelgarai | Cha Delgerai]]. The new god of Tanjung, the new Marukani capital after the fall of Celeren and the restoration of Marukan."

==== Favors owed to... ====
Monkey says, "I owe [[Shalrina]] a favor. She smuggled me out of Nexus when I popped there somehow after I got out of Underworld. With luck, she'd already closed or caused to be closed the hidden shadowland of [[Nexus]]."  

Kaizoku: [[WeaverOfDreamsOfVictory | Dreamweaver]] at [[GreatForks | Great Forks]], for pointing him to the positive energy bomb key to the defeat of the Mask.

==== Major change to the setting ===
Monkey says, "My big change will be: [[Gem]] won. The [[PerfectOfParagon | Perfect]] is assassinated, and now [[Paragon]] is a satrapy of Gem. The DragonBlooded advisors of Paragon? Recalled to Blessed Isle some time ago. The perfect's pet solars? Disappeared. Could be dead. But there's no body. Could've fled. But nobody has seen them."

==== Minor changes ====
[[/MasterJaff | Master Jaff]] gained divinity. He's now liaison between The Bureau of Humanity and Solar Wind Fleet. Sentience and intelligence do not improve him in Kaizoku's eyes. But for Monkey, it makes gambling much more exciting.

Solars have re-entered the mythic tapestry of Creation in the Scavenger Lands, at first with deeds inspired by both Monkey and Kazoku being attributed to a single figure by storytellers and slowly expanding as more Solar deeds become known.

''We may change the Roseblack as a favor so Monkey and Kaizoku can meet and woo her on an even level. Kaizoku's major and minor changes are coming as I think of them.''

2006-10-04: I think i'd like to have some kind of split between three antagonists: Temporal Powers (The Realm et al), Dark Powers (The Deathlords), and Insidious Powers (The Infernals, who are only ''too'' happy to help you in your struggles against the other two). Each one has a different danger; respectively, disunity, annihilation, and subjugation or corruption.
