Fantasy A College For Mages

I apologize, but I have decided that half-orcs, in my world, are not possible. It's part of a whole "accursed" thing they have going, which is why they can't use magic, either. So if you want to play an Orc, then you're gonna be someone who's studying it for the sake of studying it.

[QUOTE="Darth Gangsta]Damn. I love orcs a lot too. :( Oh well . . .
What about Dragonborns? Basically Dragon People/Lizard People.

[/QUOTE]
I'm not sure that's how it works... xD


I your going to add any other races, I would keep them reasonable so no one gets super important or overpowered.
 
well i'm just gonna go ahead and take that personally


just kidding it's cool


that's a good point, though - lizardfolk? not dragonborn, just argonian-like dudes. i'm trying to go for a druid type guy but i don't really want to go elf, you know?


also speaking of d&d, anyone played neverwinter nights? good shit right there
 
I would rather not play a elf cause they're rich, full of it, bastards but I will if need be.
 
Oh, elves in my world are NOT like the vast majority of elves. I hope that doesn't sound pretentious. But Elves in my world are based more on native cultures, like those of Africa and the Americas.
 
[QUOTE="Darth Gangsta]I've played Neverwinter.

[/QUOTE]
neverwinter the mmo, or neverwinter nights?


if it's the mmo, it was decidedly meh


as for neverwinter nights, it was the first rpg i played when i was younger and ohhh man i remember how cool it was back then


edit; i will also stop derailing the convo right here. sorry, i get carried away when nwn is involved owo

I hate anime too!
 
Also, I don't hate anime. I was simply posting a GIF I thought was appropriate xD . I have only seen one anime, actually, and really liked it. FMA.

where do you stand on lizardpeople of any kind?
 
@Silent Justice


What are you doing to make your posts appear as such? I wouldn't edit anything old and just post something new so we can get alerts.


That and anime of the non-slutty variety is quite enjoyable. So you can all sit your pretty asses down. >.>
 
[QUOTE="Silent Justice]Oh, my posts... Sorry about that, I was formerly banned, and so my posts have to be approved by a moderator. Sorry.

[/QUOTE]
Ohh, that makes sense. I had thought you were editing older posts to make new ones for some reason. Sorry about that. ^^


Edit: @Silent Justice, when do you think the main thread is gonna be up?

[QUOTE="Silent Justice]Crap, I hope I didn't scare everyone off by saying I was formerly banned.

[/QUOTE]
I see no reason for people to be pushed away due to most understanding that you have already taken the punishment that had been given (that being banned) and aren't going to repeat the previous offense that got you there.


Yeah some people might not want to risk their perfect record but -shrugs- you still got me. ^^
 
I MIGHT be interested, but I will need more details. I'm particularly curious as to what kind of magic system you will intend to use and what limitations and allowances it has. Namely: I have a character in mind, but they only work if the magic system is right... and I'd rather not divulge that info and infringe on your vision of what you want this college to be.
 
Okay, my magic system is fairly freeform. There are certain restrictions, though. Well, there are the four types of magic I detailed: Faith, Nature, Sorcery, and Wizardry.


Nature magic is gained through speaking with spirits of nature. They might be Death spirits, Elemental spirits, spirits of life, growth, any primordial forces. Most nature mages, or shamans, only have a few at most types of spirits they commune with.


Faith magic is gained from gods, which there are hundreds of. The primary difference between it and nature magic is that priests of all gods can heal those of their faith, and harm others of opposite faiths, in addition to being able to do special magical things to do with their god's purview of stuff.


Sorcery is basically, well, a superpower. It's somethin' yer born with. Super-speed, super-strength, maybe telekinesis, maybe teleportation. Any one person can have a maximum of one Sorcery.


Wizardry is controlling the conversion of energy, matter, and mana between each other. There are three main types; Entropy, Energy, and Force. Energy is taking energy out of things, so it's like freezing something, slowing someone or something down, etc. Energy is putting energy into things, so like shooting fireballs, giving yourself a temporary endurance or speed boost, stuff like that. Force magic is basically just telekinesis.


Hope that clears things up for ya!

So...we're staying away from the classic elements and more towards energy manipulation, buffs, and necromancy?


Interesting...
