Roku is feeling rather tricked at the moment just so ya know, Not knowing any magic yet doing something like that.... Something doesn't quite add up >~0

Welp, he initially wanted to be taught more about how magic works and what it is and and perhaps get a few pointers. But being suddenly placed in a combat situation made him string together spells by guessing the meaning of each key word like when you don't know what the word is and you just sorta imitate the sound trying to not look like you don't know what you're talking about. That, and I got overexcited for the first actual magic battle in this Rp I guess.

@revior[/URL] @Vulpes
At first I thought this merely a jest in mild temptation. However, now I will go ahead and just slam my foot on your eager little hands.


You are children of this world


Yet you are attempting to create high level magics whilst using a minimal magic affinity? You are gravely mistaken


If you attempt to dive into void magics in such a pathetic way that makes it seem as if any user can pick up a stick and do it seamlessly, I will show you just how catastrophically a spell can fail. You do not hold an attribute for magic, nor did you even try to hint to such things prior.


This includes @Vulpes as his sheet even says '..and an arcane gauntlet on his right hand only, not that he uses magic much.'


I may enjoy your company, but I do not hold fear of striking down with the severest of punishments.

I'm sorry about. But since Lana Valentine had already posted, perhaps you could let me off with just letting Joshua be drain of all his mana.


However, do allow me to defend myself. Perhaps it was due to my own ignorance and that I somehow missed out on important information. I do not recall void magic, or any other magic by the incantation system, to be listed as something that requires a high level. Therefore, I was under the assumption that barring limitation by the appropriate estimate of a character's mana at his stage of development, one can potentially perform magic in accordance to the appropriate key words used.

 

[Exanis]

Did you know, Alexander could be a great mage of he wasn't so obsessed with seeing the whites of his enemies eyes as he savagely tears their throats out.


Maybe he'll discover a passion for magic while out at sea as he tries to heal Ashelynn. Who knows.


Also, I'm getting recertified as a lifeguard so it may take may take a while for me to post.

By that logic, any individual with the smallest of catalysts should be able to destroy the world with a single command. 'Mana' is indeed one of the limiting factors, which is obvious. But how do you think this incantation system works? I dare you to explain your last incantation, and how it did exactly what it did in your previous post.


Edit: Otherwise @revior , I was merely releasing a warning. I do not desire excuses from a group I thought was otherwise capable of drawing their own limitations properly.

You just have to make sure your character doesn't go overboard with their abilities. In theory out characters have at most been in this world for about 2 weeks, 3 at the most. It wouldn't make sense for them to be able to mix Aether and Dark magic together in a combo by now. (After all opposing Elements and Both were mentioned to have unpredictable outcomes)


In the end you've been given a scolding to be careful. That's all, so lets continue onward owo

Considering there's a load of Magic going on at this moment, I'm going to leave it up to @revior Simply because your targeting him and not my own character.

Yeah, he only used his magic out of boredom and now because everyone else is. His mana pool is essentially used up now, but both spells were very weak, one was just supposed to produce more harmless darkness. But I will he sure not to overpower him, and he will seldom use his glove, however he may become more find of magic over time, but then I'll have him lack more in rapier skills as his combat prowess develops, he may one day be a battlemage, but who knows.

@revior[/URL] , I was merely releasing a warning. I do not desire excuses from a group I thought was otherwise capable of drawing their own limitations properly.

Again, I am sorry. But allow me to insist that what I wrote were not merely excuses. While there are possibilities that I may be wrong, mistaken, and that my logic is flawed, I am not trying to escape fault. If you desire change from me, then there will be change. What I did, was simply as I said, to defend myself, to present it from my point of view. Therefore, allow me to lay out my reasoning once more.


I believe the problem is the use of void magic, yes. But regardless, I'll explain the whole spell to avoid further misunderstandings. I there is no need for that, do skip ahead.


Aether:


Firstly, Kitsara's weapons are known to be ethereal, therefore, one calls upon the "spirit" aspect of the spell.


Manipulate:


As the sword was already in Joshua's hand, there was no need to create anew, therefore, manipulating the sword into another spell should be more than enough.


Spread:


This should be simple. This word was used to make the arrows spread out. In hind sight, perhaps it should not have became multiples arrows, but a cone of energy? Do address this if I am wrong.


Pierce:


Being an arrow, piercing is it's nature, I don't think there is a need for further explanation for this.


Chain:


Used to chain the spell, I don't think one can say more than that about it.


Void:


The void aspect of the word, "Black", means lack of anything in a given space, a vacuum of which matter tends to move towards.


Create:


The creation of the said void, empowered so that a large orb can be created. Though not so much the supposed stars seen within it. I did not meant to create minuscule stars, but to simply carry over the visual effects of how it was described when Joshua first saw it, to cue in the fact that this was


copied from the original caster. I realized now that this may cause it to seem more powerful that it is and am terrible sorry that I was so careless with it's description.


Remain:


For to orbs to remain, not to simply take effect and disappear. Admittedly I took some liberties with it, though I do not believe it to be unreasonable at the time. It was floating slowly towards Roku due to the velocity of the spell prior to the transformation. I thought I would have been odd for it to be holding still all of the sudden. But now that I think about it, perhaps being magic, and magic being magic, I should have taken it's stated effect to full rather than to assume that normal physics would affect it's rule.


Consume:


This was an intended counter measure for Roku's own orbs. Understandably, they are not made of matter, therefore I added "consume" of that the orbs out not be exempt when being approached by the black orbs, not to mention that I felt pierce would have been an odd fit for such spell and disperse would only lessens it's effect.


And that's it. Let me express once again, that I do not seek to escape fault, only to present how I saw this


occurrence. And if you indeed find fault in me, the I will accept without fail and amend as you see fit. And finally, I hope that I did not seem aggressive in anyway, I assure you that it was not my intention to be confrontational. I have had much fun here with all of you, and I wish to remain on good terms till the very end.

Calm thyself, No need to edit the old post, Just continue onwards and make your character seem drained of power from using such an ability. Like how Naruto (I've been on a thing with this anime so blah) uses the Fox to rapidly gain power early on but, becomes exhausted by it and can't use the power consistently. You basically used a spell that's plausible for repeated use down the line but over strained yourself. Something like that in ya next post okay :3


And please Don't worry too much about it. Ya was warned, you understand what was wrong. Avoid doing it and everything shall be cool! owo

An addtional comment for everyone...


@Kel Vas


And myself have considered creating a timeskip that would affect both groups. Group one would be training and working with Rok to earn his and possibly Kit's respect and more then likely gaining the attention of the other heroes and the Order, Group 2 would end up coasting around the boat for the same amount of time, training and helping out the Sailors on the ship to grow stronger and perhaps arrive at your destination.


I am curious however on all of your guys thoughts on this as well. So yup >~0

Don't worry about rewriting the posts dear revior, it was a simple mistake and can be counted as such. It will be treated as an accidental fluke of success that drained Joshua of his current energy.


Otherwise!

Manipulate:


As the sword was already in Joshua's hand, there was no need to create anew, therefore, manipulating the sword into another spell should be more than enough.


Spread:


This should be simple. This word was used to make the arrows spread out. In hind sight, perhaps it should not have became multiples arrows, but a cone of energy? Do address this if I am wrong.

A single incantation targeted two different entities. Instead, what would have happened here is you would instead first manipulate the aether energy, and then spread it. Thus forming the bow as you 'spread' it's form. Which would actually make the prior step a success in your hopes, and form the bow.

Pierce:


Being an arrow, piercing is it's nature, I don't think there is a need for further explanation for this.

And now your bow, since the arrows could not be targeted, now pierces whilst stretching. I feel sorry for the poor hand that was caught in this.

Chain:


Used to chain the spell, I don't think one can say more than that about it.


Void:


The void aspect of the word, "Black", means lack of anything in a given space, a vacuum of which matter tends to move towards.


Create:

copied from the original caster. I realized now that this may cause it to seem more powerful that it is and am terrible sorry that I was so careless with it's description.

Check check check! Additional points for noting that 'create' was empowered despite Joshua having no experience in controlling his mana flow!


Issuing being, the top-tier that this was chained off of was still the bow. (Since the arrows (which do not exist) can not be targeted after the bow was formed.) So the bow itself is chained to create orbs of void *Hold this note*

Remain:


For to orbs to remain, not to simply take effect and disappear. Admittedly I took some liberties with it, though I do not believe it to be unreasonable at the time. It was floating slowly towards Roku due to the velocity of the spell prior to the transformation. I thought I would have been odd for it to be holding still all of the sudden. But now that I think about it, perhaps being magic, and magic being magic, I should have taken it's stated effect to full rather than to assume that normal physics would affect it's rule.


Consume:


This was an intended counter measure for Roku's own orbs. Understandably, they are not made of matter, therefore I added "consume" of that the orbs out not be exempt when being approached by the black orbs, not to mention that I felt pierce would have been an odd fit for such spell and disperse would only lessens it's effect.

Actually, that is a perfect use of remain by description. The orb would infact carry whatever momentum, due to it being a chain of a pierce. Issue being, said pierce was not a projectile, but rather a manipulation. The orb would remain in place of the bow from this point. (Setting aside the random appearance pieces as they are irrelevant to the point.)


As for the consume, another excellent use by description. Consume is indeed a needed aspect in practically any void based magic. Otherwise, it wouldn't really be void. It needs to engulf things. Issue being, if it went with prior intention, you just made this orb of void point blank in your face (Actually in your grasp seeing as it was the bow that did this.) without an escape. However, there was no empowerment to the consume, so it probably just tickled your fingers a little and pulled your bangs over your eyes.


In conclusion: What should have occurred due to the lack of proper creation for the projectile property. You just impaled your hand with your own creation of a bow, and then your hand (where pierced), would generate a massive black orb that consumes you yourself.


However: This is just in theory if we weren't waving it off.




How it could have been fixed: By making this movement off of two separate incantations.


Aether>Manipulate>Spread>Consume - DONE


That is your bow, you have chosen it's point of origin as manipulation, and Spread the aether to the desired form. But why was consume used? This is because all spells will end with an effect, though it can be delayed. By using consume at the bare minimal power the aether energies will be naturally pulled to the desired form without any loss of additional mana. (Keep in mind ways to relieve mana costs with such effects. Less mana used on defining the form by spread, by using consume as a natural way to pull the already created energy.)


Aether>Create>Remain> -


This creates the arrow, remaining so you can further manipulate it via physical means bypassing a lengthy chain to make the arrow project itself as well.


....Remain>CHAIN!>Aether>Manipulate>Spread -


This states that the arrow will in fact spread. (However, it depends on how much mana is empowered into the Spread that dictates just how many will appear.) As well, take note that these spells are not being finished with an effect incantation.


Spread>CHAIN!>Aether>Manipulate>Bullet -


This states that the spread will be manipulated into a bullet. Or rather, that the previous spreading has not gained a magical property that carries the attack forward. (There is your heat seeking arrows)


Bullet>CHAIN!> Void > Manipulate > Spread > Consume>Chain -


Your arrow's energies were just manipulated to spread in size, as well consuming the Aether element as it became Void. (Because you want the void to appear and adopt the prior stages rather than creating a void element to the otherwise aether arrow.) The Chain incantation prevents this from being a lasting effect, but rather a step in the process.


Consume>CHAIN!> Void>Touch>Remain>Consume


This is the last step. No further manipulation is needed as it has the desired design behind it. All that is left is for you to select how it will behave when it's closing in on it's target.


Touch dictates that the true effect occurs when it comes in contact with something. Hereby preserving mana until it is actually needed. Remain dictates that it will not displace it's energy even after the ability's nature is truly revealed. Caution, as remaining effect drain mana continuously. And then, Consume, as you want the ball to devour that which it touches.


So in the end, the real incantation would look something like


Aether>Manipulate>Spread>Consume


*Bow*


Aether>Create>Remain>CHAIN!>Aether>Manipulate>Spread>CHAIN!>Aether>Manipulate>Bullet>CHAIN!> Void > Manipulate > Spread > Consume>CHAIN!> Void>Touch>Remain>Consume


Which makes this a tier four incantation. (But then again, this is me roughly digging through to make the spell. There might be shortcuts, but this is potentially the most mana efficient way that I could think of.

(Setting aside the random appearance pieces as they are irrelevant to the point.)


As for the consume, another excellent use by description. Consume is indeed a needed aspect in practically any void based magic. Otherwise, it wouldn't really be void. It needs to engulf things. Issue being, if it went with prior intention, you just made this orb of void point blank in your face (Actually in your grasp seeing as it was the bow that did this.) without an escape. However, there was no empowerment to the consume, so it probably just tickled your fingers a little and pulled your bangs over your eyes.


In conclusion: What should have occurred due to the lack of proper creation for the projectile property. You just impaled your hand with your own creation of a bow, and then your hand (where pierced), would generate a massive black orb that consumes you yourself.


However: This is just in theory if we weren't waving it off.




How it could have been fixed: By making this movement off of two separate incantations.


Aether>Manipulate>Spread>Consume - DONE


That is your bow, you have chosen it's point of origin as manipulation, and Spread the aether to the desired form. But why was consume used? This is because all spells will end with an effect, though it can be delayed. By using consume at the bare minimal power the aether energies will be naturally pulled to the desired form without any loss of additional mana. (Keep in mind ways to relieve mana costs with such effects. Less mana used on defining the form by spread, by using consume as a natural way to pull the already created energy.)


Aether>Create>Remain> -


This creates the arrow, remaining so you can further manipulate it via physical means bypassing a lengthy chain to make the arrow project itself as well.


....Remain>CHAIN!>Aether>Manipulate>Spread -


This states that the arrow will in fact spread. (However, it depends on how much mana is empowered into the Spread that dictates just how many will appear.) As well, take note that these spells are not being finished with an effect incantation.


Spread>CHAIN!>Aether>Manipulate>Bullet -


This states that the spread will be manipulated into a bullet. Or rather, that the previous spreading has not gained a magical property that carries the attack forward. (There is your heat seeking arrows)


Bullet>CHAIN!> Void > Manipulate > Spread > Consume>Chain -


Your arrow's energies were just manipulated to spread in size, as well consuming the Aether element as it became Void. (Because you want the void to appear and adopt the prior stages rather than creating a void element to the otherwise aether arrow.) The Chain incantation prevents this from being a lasting effect, but rather a step in the process.


Consume>CHAIN!> Void>Touch>Remain>Consume


This is the last step. No further manipulation is needed as it has the desired design behind it. All that is left is for you to select how it will behave when it's closing in on it's target.


Touch dictates that the true effect occurs when it comes in contact with something. Hereby preserving mana until it is actually needed. Remain dictates that it will not displace it's energy even after the ability's nature is truly revealed. Caution, as remaining effect drain mana continuously. And then, Consume, as you want the ball to devour that which it touches.


So in the end, the real incantation would look something like


Aether>Manipulate>Spread>Consume


*Bow*


Aether>Create>Remain>CHAIN!>Aether>Manipulate>Spread>CHAIN!>Aether>Manipulate>Bullet>CHAIN!> Void > Manipulate > Spread > Consume>CHAIN!> Void>Touch>Remain>Consume


Which makes this a tier four incantation. (But then again, this is me roughly digging through to make the spell. There might be shortcuts, but this is potentially the most mana efficient way that I could think of.

I can see that my thinking was over-simplified, this system is far more precise than I could have ever imagined. It must have taken quite a long time to come up with.

[QUOTE="Kel Vas]*Waves* Alright, here it is. The ability broken down by the system whilst my nephews and niece are screaming into my ear that they are hungry >.<.
Don't worry about rewriting the posts dear revior, it was a simple mistake and can be counted as such. It will be treated as an accidental fluke of success that drained Joshua of his current energy.


Otherwise!


A single incantation targeted two different entities. Instead, what would have happened here is you would instead first manipulate the aether energy, and then spread it. Thus forming the bow as you 'spread' it's form. Which would actually make the prior step a success in your hopes, and form the bow.


And now your bow, since the arrows could not be targeted, now pierces whilst stretching. I feel sorry for the poor hand that was caught in this.


Check check check! Additional points for noting that 'create' was empowered despite Joshua having no experience in controlling his mana flow!


Issuing being, the top-tier that this was chained off of was still the bow. (Since the arrows (which do not exist) can not be targeted after the bow was formed.) So the bow itself is chained to create orbs of void *Hold this note*

Allowing myself a brief moment of honesty but, I'm pretty sure I would have messed up somewhere along the lines of trying to do that >~> Still guess I need to practice more myself >~<

There, posted, hopes this fixes things.
