Sounds great Santo.

Har, when he game reaches this stage of wondrous "Doctor Strange versus
Galactica" stage I'll let the GM decide ho hard it is. I wanted it to be
hard enough that the PC would max up, and still always lose. :-)
Whatever that number is.
I know, from experience, that the PC who got to this stage will find some
way to make it anyway. :-)
I'm interested by what you meant by the "Sheng Seleris" story - does
> the Great Khan try to challenge Time?
No. I was referring to the fact that he got all the way to "the end" and was granted his final wish, which as to dominate the world. So he got it. But he blew the final test.
I see the discussion has shifted to e about Time. To become immortal, permanent, etc. isn't aobut Time, it is about altering the very fabric of the universe, or which Time is only one axis.
