canon point retcon!
HI GUYS. Emily here.
SO FUNNY THING I started reading the next book in the InCryptid series and found that I severely underestimated the amount of damage done to Sarah by her final saving act at her current canon point, to the point where as she is right now, she would be practically unplayable. This, obviously, is a problem. That is why I talked to our lovely mods, and they gave me permission to retcon Sarah's current canonpoint, and change it to an earlier one to help keep her playability and not have me be OOC. So, here's what's happening.
I'm currently taking her back to the first book in the series: Discount Armageddon. Instead of just helping save Verity from the Covenant of St. George and learning what happens if someone's using an anti-telepathy charm, Sarah is coming from just helping save Verity from a murderous snake cult that was trying to wake up a dragon. She saved her first dragon, made a new chess buddy, and made sure her cousin made it out alive as it is her purpose in life.
This means she is not aware of: the main effects of anti-telepathy charms, Dominic being more of an ally than a nebulous entity, Verity being tortured by the Covenant and a number of other events that happened in Book 2, as well as being a little more free with her telepathic abilities, due to not having gone overboard with them yet. However, the limitations placed on her by the game will still be in place, and I will not do anything without your permission so PLEASE PLEASE drop by her PERMISSION POST to get an idea of her abilities and such.
Since the only character she mentioned canon-point relevant information to so far is Angel and Angel is no longer in the game, this shouldn't effect what other characters have learned about her at this point. I'm planning on just sort of handwaving it always having been this way and moving on but if you have any questions, please let me know!
