[OOC] Phoenix Wing (A Fairy Tail RP-Always Open, Open)

[Expolar]

I'm just going to say it, because I really want to express how I feel about this while it's still fresh. Do we have too many slayers? I know this is a RP and we're having fun, but for me, why is slayer magic so popular? Sure it's cool and interesting, but what else about it does it make it stand out than choosing a non slayer magic? I can understand maker magic since it involves the user to have creative mind to do their magic. Grey and Lyon's for example have the same magic but both are used differently.

But back to slayers. It felt special at first since there were a few, but it kinda feels like we're just adding slayer to the name of a magic. There's dragon taming magic which allows the user to control multiple dragons instead of slaying them. We need to save these endangered species everyone. We could catch and train them. If a pokemon trainer was a magic, I would catch them all lol xD

But ya, slayer magic doesn't really feel that special. I would go into more details, but I rather not spoil anything from the anime/manga for anyone. But as a quick example, how many slayers have we actually seen slay the thing that they're supposed to slay?

I really don't mean to be a party pooper. But I'm just trying to follow the rules of having unique range of various kinds of magic. Yes, there are different kinds of slayer magic, but I believe wizards can still perform their magic skills high enough to match or surpass surpass.

So again, I'm not too upset about this. I'm just saying, is making a slayer magic that necessary and important for the character? If you want the character to have it, fine, go ahead.

I do see you your point Expolar.

@Expolar

Well I like to see the magics I choose from a plot or narrative standpoint and what that magic can possibly entail.
The following was made up and is in no way related to the manga or anime as far as I have any knowledge.

Like when I made the Dragon slayer story, I personally, feel free to disagree, thought it added to the depth of the council and how far it would go to keep control or gain power. I mean restoring near fossilized eggs and hatched and raising them. Experimenting. Hurting, etc.

Then Amaya came and I compromised. I didn't know about the God Slayers much really. And somehow another DS who is first gen came. Idek.

In my mind, A devil slayer can open up devil stuff. Sins, hell, layers of hell, maybe not zeref but a fear like plotline. Imagine the reactions of people who are just getting used to magic again if they recall history of devils and zeref because of a magic. I don't see the slayer so much as I see devil or god or dragon and what it could possibly introduce. Maybe I'm not making sense though.

Also, while I have thought about other ideas, I have not worked out much of anything solid as of yet and like to try my hand at creating a magic. IE much creative liberty with the limited knowledge and information of DeS magic. As far as I have seen, Slayer magic is also fairly malleable depending on the mage, much akin to maker magic.

@Expolar

Honestly we probably do. xD When I made Nolan I was the only one in the rp who actually had any slayer magic so I guess I was the test dummy before I had a hiatus due to personal issues. As for have we seen any slayer slay the thing they're supposed to slay, Nolan is going to become the Kratos of this rp. xDDD

[Remram]

Besides, I thought we stopped accepting slayers anyway? And I think we have the same amount or general ball park of slayers as the manga.

@hatakekuro

I don't remember this... And I got the okay from Caits. But regardless... I though we only had like 5 slayers altogether?

@Demon Shinobi

Let's see. Nolan, Lazarus, Jack, Lightning God Slayer woman Zero, Amaya, and Hunter. So seven, but the manga has as many or more slayers in just the Dragon Slayer category.

Edit: Oh yeah, I forgot Penny and Karn so it's nine.

[MarshiestMallow]

I never wanted every second player to have slayer magic, and so far, we haven't. We have so many unique magics now, and I love it.

Seven now?

Eight, with Penny. But then I don't couldnt the kightebing God layer woman. So eight, with Karn

But we don't have them all in one slayer category, so that makes it different

Still.

No more.

[Remram]

@Caits You forgot Karn's Chimera Slaying Magic. xD
Never mind, you did.

[MarshiestMallow]

Hm.

I'd hope Yipee would have posted by how

Well.

I'll get to posting soonish

[MarshiestMallow]

@Caits You forgot Karn's Chimera Slaying Magic. xD

Wait so can I still make my devil? And soren? Or no? If not I will need a whole new character concept and so would he.

@Demon Shinobi

You can, but no more. At least until there's more normal characters

[Remram]

Captain Salem is almost purely cosmetic since he is an S class wizard
