What about them?

Anything. Or everything. Whatever you can tell me.

Um. It'd help if I knew why you wanted to know.

Re: Filter

So I can pick them.

...

Sorry about this, but really the whole point of locking things with magic is so other people can't pick them.

Re: Filter

That's the point of most locks.

I'd say the point of most locks is to stop people getting things you don't want them to have.

But, anyway. You can't pick things locked with magic because there's nothing to pick.

Then how do you... break the magic spell or whatever?

Re: Filter

[takeyouapart]

I just...have one spell for locking things and another one for unlocking things.

Do you need to be a, uh, a witch or a wizard to use magic spells or could anybody do it if they learned how?

I think it depends where you're from. In my world, magic is something you're born with, but I don't know if it's the same everywhere.

Re: Filter

How would you find that kind of thing out?

Filter - How late is this tag? REALLY LATE.

I - I'm not sure. I found out I could do magic before I even knew what sorcery was, so - I don't know if it's something that you just wouldn't know about for as long as you've been alive.

Not that I'm saying you're old! I don't actually know how old you are. Uh.

Does anyone else in your world have magic?
