Hmm, you know of magic, you say?

1/2 frumpyface July 26 2009, 01:45:25 UTC

WHAT THE HELL IS THAT

2/2 frumpyface July 26 2009, 01:45:54 UTC

Ah, y-yes, I do. Is there, er, something you wanted to know?

death_the_dad July 26 2009, 01:48:28 UTC

I would like you to tell me of your magic.

frumpyface July 26 2009, 02:11:05 UTC

Well, the magic I'm familiar with is anima magic. Mages wield primarily fire and thunder elements, while water and wind elements are rarer. The spells require tomes and, optionally to strengthen the spell, the aid of spirits. I could show you, if you're interested, milord.

There is also restorative magic, light magic that requires faith in the Saint, and... elder magic. However, I do not know quite as much on those subjects, milord.

death_the_dad July 26 2009, 23:34:29 UTC

And this magic. What was it used for, hmm?

frumpyface July 26 2009, 23:40:20 UTC

Anything from daily conveniences, such as lighting a stove or freezing food to preserve it for a bit long, to any number of military applications to just about everything in-between. Staves are used to treat injuries. I've heard light magic is used in many church rituals, but I have no specifics on that. Elder magic... I cannot think of any use of it that doesn't boil down to causing someone pain.

death_the_dad July 26 2009, 23:42:09 UTC

...

Hmm.

Then this Elder Magic would be the most similar to...

With all the differences I find in the worlds, the most similarities I discover...

frumpyface July 26 2009, 23:53:24 UTC

Similarities in other worlds' magic systems? What do you mean?

death_the_dad July 27 2009, 01:04:32 UTC

Similarities in everything! Some worlds don't have magic at all, remember~

frumpyface July 27 2009, 01:10:44 UTC

Ah, right. That's always... difficult to imagine.

death_the_dad July 27 2009, 20:08:00 UTC

Hmm. I wonder if it would be better that way.

frumpyface July 27 2009, 23:21:36 UTC

Better... without magic, you mean?

death_the_dad July 28 2009, 00:26:39 UTC

In my world, magic is a force of destruction used solely by Witches. This power is so strong that it contorts their personalities, making them crave causing chaos and pain.

The power to destroy which comes with the knowledge of magic, would it be better for humans to lack this knowledge?

frumpyface July 28 2009, 00:33:34 UTC

Elder magic.

But it's that black or white? All witches causes chaos? There's no gray?

death_the_dad July 28 2009, 00:36:55 UTC

There are shades of gray in everything!

However~ Would a world be better off with or without magic if the majority use it for chaos and the minority not? Even I can't say!
