In the statosphere book it states that there are two ways of joining the IC. 1: Replaceing a sitting member by becomeing godwalker and shifting the current archetype to something more suited to the times. 2:Trying to embody a archetype that currently does'nt exist and hopeing that when the universe decides that its time for that archetype to exist it calls you up to the IC. If 2 is what happened to TNG and 2 is the only logical conclusion if in fact Able did almost get called up to the IC. One has to ask, what's the thing that is similar between the two that would make the universe sit up and take notice to the point of createing a new archetype. We know very little about TNG porn, desire, no one can have me on and on. Alex Able's life is covered very well in TNI book but I just can't draw any connections that seem to fit!

Ok this just pop'ed into my head so bear with me. One of the problems I allways had with the wecbwby is how narrow the focus was "Woman everyone could be with?" Then it hit me the NG archetype isnt the wecbwby. Every day the media brings us images of rich,pretty people that we absorb and we sit and think "If I could lose some weight I could be a model. This is america anyone could strike it rich. If I were rich, powerfull, pretty, smart I could have that girl, money, job and well damn it one day I will. But it never turns out that way for the vast majority of us. All we have is the pretty people who's faces we project on our unitainable desires. The NG isnt the wechby she's the oud, the object of unitainable desires.
Alex Able= black man, rich, one of people magazines top 3 bachelors. The NG= pretty availible to a chosen few not you. Able was'nt clued in but to the NG it would be perfect. To be a avatar you have to live the archetype and that means you would have to be an object of unitainable desire to even begin to channel it. Most of the other archetypes all you have to do is ape the archetype and bang you have a connection sure it takes dedication to take it far but with the oud 99.99% of the people out there can't even get out of the starting gate. And as for the other.01% how many of them will be clued in enough to know what there doing. She set herself up in the IC and slashed all challengers down while she did it! One more thing in a older post one of the creators of the game said "What effect did the the NG joining the IC have on the occult underground." Well all the losers that were playing it safe before had all their unitainable desires subtly brought out just like the rest of !

the world. But their desires were to try to find new powerfull rituals, show the world that magic was real, take that shot at godwalker even though most of should know somewhere that they will fail they can't help it they have occult power and they think that will be able to fufill their desires.
JasonV who is falling hard for the NG.
