Malakhim Permissions and Visibility.

[laodicean]

In canon, only people with a higher level of what is called resonance, like a spiritual sense, can see/hear seraphim/malakhim in Tales of Zestiria and Tales of Berseria. This will follow through in Laphicet's time in Empatheias. What does this mean? Well, certain characters will be able to see/hear him just fine.

- Laphicet is aligned with Peromei, so any characters under that same alignment will see and hear him just fine!
- If a character isn't human, they will be able to see and hear him as well.
- There's also the option of building up the ability to see/hear Laphicet through gaining cr with him.
- Human characters with a particular affinity for spiritual power could potentially see/hear him and the other seraphim as well.

Basically, I'm using the same sort of rules that the Zestiria seraphim have been going with in determining who can see/hear Laphicet. If you have any questions, just let me know and I can figure an answer on whether a character could see/hear him.

Question on the seeing thing for your cool nerd - what about people with Personas? 'Cause technically they're human, but they have a thing called a persona (or personas) which is literally a part of themselves that can be summoned.

... So it's kind of spiritual or magical??

Also was not sure if I should PM you or not but figured this was the best place to ask. '^';

Hello! I don't know how familiar you are with ffxv, but I believe the Zestiria cast has been going with people who have the same power set/sensitivities as Ardyn as being able to see seraphim. Is it cool with you to extend that to Laphicet?

Sorry for the delay on our thread! Also, I'm thinking maybe Vincent can hear but not see him? I think he falls in the last category, unless spiritual power means something religious.^^;
