A Few Questions About Creating Magic In General.

[Mephistophelian 977]

So, I have a few questions on the creation of magic that I would like answered. It would be great if a lore master (or two, because the more opinions, the better) would be able to answer my question.

So, on to the questions!

1) If I wanted to, would I be allowed to create a completely new magic for myself to use, as long as it fits in with the 'mechanical standard' or whatnot? I know that you aren't accepting any magic types until 4.0, but that's not the point. My point is; can I make up a magic, not require to have it accepted, and RP it?

2) If I created a magic, would this magic then be allowed to be used by others (i.e. I teach them the magic)?

3) If I do create magic, what are the limits of my 'creation'. For example, am I able to create a dark magic (for example, shade magic), or not? Am I able to create a holy magic (for example, clerical magic), or not? Am I able to create a void magic (for example, some kind of evocation magic), or not? I hope you get what I mean :).

Well, thanks for reading this, and I hope that you answer these questions :D

I re-read what I posted, and I want to say that I don't mind if someone who isn't a lore master answers! Honestly, I would love any opinion/fact/information about this!

Generally? No, no and no. While we have no idea where the magic plugin's at, we want to minimise the amount of extra work for the techs making it, not to mention that the Magic Plugin will likely mess up magic's status quo anyway.

If you're specific about what it is you want to do, we can probably work out a way you can do with with existing lore and possibly create a small amount of new lore to fill in the gaps.

Ok, thanks for this info, Lago! I will send you a pm regarding the magic I am trying to implement (no, it isn't Cal'tarethro magic). I believe it will be a good addition to the server, and it will not require anything to be edited/created for the magic plugin because it is a pure RP magic, such as soul puppetry (i.e. It is not something that is used for direct-offense, such as evocation). Anyway, consider this topic closed, then!
