If so what are the advantages and disadvantages of doing so?

The end result isn't as reliable. The cost is relatively taxing (focus wise). Don't recommend it.

Magical catalysts. Tomes and spelledge weapons exist, for sure, but what is the true limit of their potential?

Could one, say, RP as someone without magical talent at all but has some kind of catalyst which lets them use magic anyway?

Could one skilled enough channel their magic/ki/whatever through a mundane object, such as using a gun to shoot focus instead of bullets?

A catalyst is just a focused lens. It isn't a source of power, although it may have unique properties. As for the guns question, that's already how most Magic Gunners fire their guns, since regular 'bullets' are more expensive and have about the same level of power.

How fast is magic, in literal terms? I know this has been answered before but sources have informed me that you were just joking (which I honestly don't doubt). Magic has to be somehow perceptible, whether by the target's eye, a trained mage, a trained mage hunter, or some other kind of magically affixed and affiliated person. Though I guess the reason "you just have to feel it" works too. But twice the speed of light isn't very credible nor does it make anyone credulous to it at all.

It's pretty fast.

- How long ago did the corrupted become a thing? Is it a recent thing, such as post HC? Or is it as old as some of the older races?

- Is there more to Ryart's story than what is revealed in game so far?

- Zerans actively mock Onigans for not attempting to conquer Alastasia during their Warring Era. Is there any more information on this, such as why the Onigans did not? Were they too tied down by the war with Sigrogana, or...?

Corrupted have always been a thing. Yes. There's no information on why they didn't, nor any indication why they would do so (you could make the same argument for Sigrogana, but.)

From the wiki: "Kaelensia have a rather unrefined language that they use on Egwyn sometimes."

Based on this, would it be safe to assume that the whole of Egwyn speaks a single language (Kaelensian), or are there differences between areas/races that might make it difficult to communicate between them?

Most of Egwyn can speak the common language, since they have to in order to trade with foreigners who bring them important supplies. The Kaelan language is rather antiquated and isn't as capable of as much complexity and detail as the common language, so it's only really still used as a means of tradition, and even then, not often.

Can you give me a general, but descriptive summary of Huggessoa please?

Does/Did Huggessoa ever appear in the world?

Can Huggessoa be summoned? If so, how?

What might a worshiper of Huggessoa be like? In general, nothing specific!

There is no summary of Huggessoa. The only thing we know about him, according to the Mercalan Church, is that he's evil, as are those who ally themselves with him.

Yes.

No.

A worshiper of Huggessoa would likely wear funeral attire.

This came up in LOOC; What exactly are the laws of the land, beyond the obvious "Don't steal, kill, rape, or attack each other"? I don't recall there being any specifics laid out.

And more specifically, are there any laws directly against drawing a weapon needlessly in public, or drawing one in general if you aren't a part of the Guard (and obviously not committing another crime)?

If you draw your weapon, it must be for a non-violent purpose, or because you are being assaulted. You can't draw your weapon to intimidate another person. Intimidating another person in general is not allowed. Other than that, there's the whole 'no magic' thing in Oniga. No public indeceny. No violence against others, which is punished to varying degrees (if you're just a drunk brawler, you'll probably spend the night in jail. If you're a thug, depending on where you are, you could get exiled or executed if you're a repeat offender.)

Is there a specific way to becoming a Ghost? If so, how?

How does the Geistritters recruit their members? Are there any special requirements or training that you have to go through?

Ghosts are just tenacious fighters, so I guess one way would be to not die.

Geistritters are usually recruited by scouting talent. Generally you must be a talented spiritualist and not have any serious criminal record. When you're recruited at first, it's as a trainee, and you're given small jobs to do such as hauntings/etc. When your training is finished, you are either released (because you did poorly) or recruited to the organization (because you did well).

So, do we have microphones or any means of voice aid?

Talk louder.

Okay,So,Last month you went and said that Alstalsia had some of the more standard Fantasy creatures living in it...and that makes me question.

Have there ever been attempts (Successful or otherwise) to tame them?...I know for a fact that there'd likely be /SOME/ person who looks at them and thinks 'Yeah,I could make a killing by selling them to Kaelensia as pets'.

Zera is a demon of domination. It only makes sense that his kin would follow his example. So, yes.

Are Mercalan magics capable of healing disabilities that you were born with? (IE blind, mute, deaf.)

Depending on the severity of the condition, it is possible, yes. Although sometimes even Mercana will not work and no one seems to understand why.

What constitutes an emergency in which Mercalan/healing magic should be used to aid another from injury, contusions, etc? This is all going by ethics and the Church Charter (which I'm sure there is one).

If waiting for normal medical treatment would result in the death of the person, that is a valid time to use your magic. If a threat, such as a monster, is about and the only way to make sure it's stopped is to heal someone who can defeat it, that is another valid use. If you are pursuing a greater threat towards others, such as monsters (but not mortals), then it can be used without much worry.

Generally speaking, Mercala favors life over death.

What percentage of people caught under the Black Eclipse actually get Corrupted into Umbrals?

1%.
