Basically I decided to count the armor category as one slot no matter what because we rarely have players be all "and then, due to my light armor, my character was decapitated." Basically, that category counts as a "collected defense" category.

I love the power slot idea, it's probably the best thing to happen to RPs yet.
Thanks mate, hopefully other RP's use this method in the future :D.

They use a bunch of different means in Diablo- I know the Sorceress mutters incantations if you listen well.
.... You're shitting me.

It works quite well.
Even though I have an urge to fill that last slot.
Ey, you've already got all 6 slots filled.
Armor slot counts as one no matter what you choose to take, since there are countless ways you can defend yourself. You can use telekinesis to have blows bounce off yourself, you could simply dodge or fly out of the way, you can twist your body to evade...

Lol, I love it when players make sure their characters aren't overpowered, I despise it when people come in, give their characters all the bells and whistles, then act all confused when I ask them to tone that shit down :D.
Though, this run it seems we haven't had this problem, I'm pretty glad that the "power slot" idea worked to help eliminate any problems, and I must say, very nice characters all of you, can't wait to get this shit rolling :D.

It's really open to your imagination, if you wish magic to work via specific incantations, then that's how it will work for you. If you wish it to work via scrolls, then that can work too.
I usually leave these things up to the player to decide, I'm all laissez faire like that.

K, so me, Seth, Nektu and Nanaki are still making our chars, though Nektu and Nanaki don't need to have theirs done by the start of the RP, so they're fine :D.

Keep in mind everyone, it's perfectly fine for you to modify your character up until the start of the RP, you can even totally scrap your current and make a new one.
The veteran RPers would know this, but just making sure to remind everyone, since it seems a bunch of us are having doubts, lol.

So I take it you're going to be using telekinesis as your main weapon?

So no steampunk, Turm :D.
And Jeru, I said when this was being planned that it was still a long ways off, we're starting Tuesday at the latest.
Next Monday will be the deadline, so you've got tons of time :D.
Will also give people lots of time to modify their characters.
Tuesday, the Story Thread goes up, and we get this shit on the road.
The veteran RPers would know this, but just making sure to remind everyone, since it seems a bunch of us are having doubts, lol.
If you want to keep your character, then keep it, don't let the choices of others make you feel like your character isn't useful.
