What is the most interesting magic from an RP point of view

I'm really bored at school rn so I made a silly little poll. I'll check it in a few hours when I get home

Personally I really think Druidism or Azdrazi Heraldry cause Druids have a very well developed lore with the Mani. Azdrazi have a very interesting history and philosophy that is very interesting to learn about and create stories around (also they write a ton of really cool stuff)

Why the HELL would Bardmancy and Housemagic be together. . .  In terms of stories you can tell?

Go read enthralling story, T5 bardmancy. And see how many stories is equal to infinite.

Shamanism is the only magic that gives you complete freedom in storytelling

Be it with haruspexy or spirit walks

Idk about current shamanism, but the times I participated in spirit walks with the old lore, it was really good rp.

Deity/dark deity magics in general seem to have the most story-focused lore. Lots of events and such. Since their deities tend (sorry Xan) to be living entities, there are opportunities to interact with those actual entities. Like just recently, from what I know, there was a major event where a Mani was played by ST. That kinda stuff just doesn't happen with voidal magic or with golemancy or with bardmancy

Hear me out. Any magic can become interesting with a good roleplayer backing it.

I am convinced that Housemagery/Bardmancy is one of the most wonderful magics from not only a storytelling perspective, but also from a "Is this a beginner friendly magic" one.

For very different reasons.

Housemagery is a fairly straightforward magic that allows a beginner to get a hold on the basics, without being overwhelmed. It has some very nice utility and world exploration abilities, can be self taught without too much confusion, and is all around highly accessible.
I'm personally a fan of the spell that helps identify the traits of organic matter!

It also has the subtype of Culimancy, which, beyond being just another 'house magic' opens up RP potential for those that enjoy crafting RP to explore another avenue in cooking. They can produce foods that actually have RP value and aren't just 'fancy foods'
The ability to remove impurities from food via magic is really useful, as are the magical tools your character can create.

Bardmancy is one I have admittedly not partaken in, but have seen it used by all sorts of characters. Its wonderful for both the storyteller as well as the jokester, and is what I consider to be what one might describe as a 'street performer's magic', the kind where a young kid might see a magician using it to enhance a performance and go 'I want to learn magic too!'

Mysticism is kind of hard to beat, especially when it entirely operates off of vibes. It's also one of the few that directly interacts with the afterlife, which has serious potential for religious and magical dialogue.

It'd be great to rp a wisewoman  who guides phantoms to rest and communes with the departed if they werent KOS everywhere

love how many people said shamanism now help me finish writing it

I'm not gonna vote because I don't know anything about half the magics, but it's always fun to RP conjuration specifically because by the rules I have to describe how the creature is conjured, and it's always really fun
