Questions On Creating New Magic

[cman64 66]

A few Questions on magic....

 

-If One was to make their own magic, how would we announce it to the forums and where?

-Also, if it was a new kind one would create, would we be required to make a guide for it or encouraged to?

-Can it take on one of the abilities such as making one invisible(Of course not entirly nor for as long as one would want which would be unfair) or others that would be related to another kind of magic, or would my character have to instead not have the new magic created for that reason? 

-Will i have to have lore to back up the new magic if it is created? 

 

 

Thank you and please do your best to answer

Want to make yourself invisble, that's called illusion magic, you're still there and people can still bump into you,

No more like see through similar to ice or glass. Since my character is albino and from a northern origin, i wanted to give him some things that would have helped him survive in the north like turning clear as ice or glass, freezing things at the touch, etc to stay out of sight

Post goes in the magic lore section. 

 

Guides are encouraged and will better chances of success.

 

Don't replicate other magic types with regards to ability, illusion can what you want for example.

 

Lore is absolutely required

 

Good luck :D, it's hard to get magic lore accepted these days, and I wish you all the best.

Ok thank you, so i will write the whole guide for the magic lore and move it to the guide section if it is accepted, and i hope that it works too

So what can i do to make it the most successful, what should i include? 

[Agith 224]

Solid lore, a good grasp on what the magic can do, be original and be sure to set forth the red lines which the magic can't do. Be VERY specific.

You can't do that with illusion.

Lore Team isn't accepting new magics pending news on the state of the magic plugin with Telanir's departure. The magics you want to do are possible with existing magics though.

[Agith 224]

You can actually. It simply involves making others perceive you as not existing. Quite easy if they don't see you when you perform it on them, without breaking their logic.

 

It was permitted during the time of the MAT, it's fine now. Now how long can it be maintained ? 

Probably not too long.

Not if it states in the Red lines of the magic it can not be done if you are thinking of illusion.

 

"Emoting invisibility, one can not become invisible. There will always be tells. This does not, however, mean one can't vanish. Given enough distance one may create smoke or a flash of light and then become the illusionary form of somewhat-invisible to escape"

Well as i believe all new lore is posted in Roleplay ideas.http://www.lordofthecraft.net/forum/380-roleplay-ideas/

Well first have a nice interesting idea get set out what you want from your magic and how it can do it working with in the current lore. Than write up some soil lore to back it up and explain it but keep it interesting and not overly complex. The abilities should be keep similar like the current subtypes are like different schools of magic and a guide would come after your lore/expansion. Maybe looking at some new accepted lore might help you a bit.

Ok Thank you all. So you are saying it is possible to have new magic accepted if it does not include the pluggin and is strictly more for the rp affect but can hold some of the abilities that are already in the pluggin?

Well that quote was more for the people that thought you could turn invisible with illusion but yes if you where going to write a new magic i wouldnt expect to see it added to the plugin for quite some time the tech team does have alot to do.
