Forcefield could be an activated ability for armor.

If we were to do elements, that would make sense, but that'd mean more work on the part of coders. I think it'd be fairly simple to create variables and assign them values and do the math, but tedious. I think it'd be easier to do resistance to specific damage types, as elements require you to assign the title "element" to various things...which I've always found a bit irritating...especially when you have stuff like Lava and Magma as elements.

I hope we won't be referring to Korrigahnn as "Korri" in game...it just doesn't sound good to me.

What does the Desert World as it's currently imagined have to do with puppets? How does this fit in with the world? If it does not, then I think a different boss is needed. I think that the bosses for each world should not be connected with Korrigahnn - not everything is him. Personally, I was thinking of a giant sandworm, a-la Dune (a fantastic work of science fiction that is on par with the Foundation trilogy).

I'll take a look at the exact mechanics later.
