I think we need to talk about how magic is done in this verse... Are the tomes neccasary to have? Or do you just need to have a spell memorized? Does the caster need to have contact with it? We all seem to be doing different things...

[Asura]

I've had it in my mind you have a tome for each spell you know. Laius is carrying around four text books. He's packin' heat under those robes. Among other things. ;3

[Vincanity]

I've made it so you've needed contact with the tome. I think someone else just had their character casting spells randomly... I could be wrong though.

[Rethel34]

A friend of mine came up with a theory on how the tomes would be necessary to have and how they could wear down quickly:

The text on the inside is not written in ink, but a powder that grants the user the ability to cast the spell. The powder slowly fades out of the book over time as spells are used, up until the runes are no longer existing on the page, therefore rendering the tome useless. This isn't to say that simple magic like conjuring a small breeze or lighting a candle can't be done without the tome, but the powdered runes in the book are what cause the user's powers to be amplified, depending on the type and concentration of the powder in the tome.

Does that make sense? Of course, this is just a suggestion, but it seemed the most logical to me.

[TwilightDragon]

Ah, I see. That's interesting. So do they chant spells or..?

Vin, ya posting soon?

[Rethel34]

Yeah, they'd still have to chant out the spell. I dunno. It's up to you whether or not you want to use that or if you want to make a variation.

[phillmyster]

Well, if we go by the energy principle, and magic comes from one's energy then we could say that mages can cast 1 or two powerfull spells on their own but are left exhausted by each use, the books are a sort of battery, the mage puts energy in there for the use of a specific spell, and saves it for a later use. But in this way the mage must know the spell it has

[TwilightDragon]

It sounds reasonable. :3 I'll use that idea.

Phill, your post was a bit moddy. It's no big deal, but... remember that each RPer only controls their character, kay?

[phillmyster]

Ok i'll keep tht in mind, had trouble making "putting on the treatment" into a full post , wont happen again:/

[TwilightDragon]

It's okay don't worry.

[Solace]

I'll uh, post a little later

[Asura]

Post people! We need move on, so mighty Laius may lead the Shepards to victory, strip Darrian of his power and deliver a one liner as he does so!

[TwilightDragon]
