voidal NERDS have their megascopes, us seers have had crystal balls for years B)

this would absolutely devastate my divination seer guise I've put so much work into ;-; but damn this is really cool and totally up the whimsical witch alley, hope it passes!! I'd immediately pivot all my "voidal divination" shit into fitting this aesthetic and stylings

When the notice reached the Oracle of the Void, her crimson hued eyes would dart over the length of the page as she took a long drag. A puff of the smoke was cast out over the balcony railing carried by a sigh, “Woe be upon ye t'at give into t'e temptations o' power in all its false'oods.” She tossed the paper to one of her flightless crows, who carried it over in its beak to a candle, letting it slowly burn away in an ashtray. “Gluttonous, megalomaniacal fools. Yer evil and treachery is rooted out time and 'gain . . . when shall ye learn?”

The Oracle of the Void brought a hand to her chin in contemplation as she read over the missive; something about it seemed not to bring her any ease or comfort. Much the opposite, as word of the Tear's closing seemed to unsettle her, not solely by the mention of an incursion of a hollow within the Veil. A great battle had transpired to see such would occur, and yet it seemed quite certain that this war for the sanctity of the Veil was not over, perhaps simply just beginning. She turned her gaze to the sill of her office and upon the flock of crows gathered, their vacuous eyes of starry orange and yellow nebulae glancing every which way until she beckoned one over with a curl of one of her crooked digits. When they landed upon her forearm, she scribed a short note in that mana infused ink of indigo hue, setting raven feather pen aside as she tied it with a ribbon just above her messenger's claw. A wave of her hand she sent them off, flying out above the roofs of Hohkmat. Turning back to her desk, she folded her hands before her face, staring across to the other side of the room. “I fear t'e worst 'as yet to come . . . portents of doom lie 'pon t'e 'orizon. I usually try not to meddle in fate's plans but . . . per'aps t'at ought to change.” A heavy sigh escaped her before she drew open one of her desk drawers, removing from it a blunt and a box of matches. One end in the corner of her mouth, striking a match to light the other, she drew into her lungs a moment before releasing a puff of smoke into the cool evening air. “So mote it be.”

I love the mention of longbow specifically, but I'd recommend specifying the type of crossbow as well (the gap between hand and crank in LotC armaments is wonky), as well as the speed. Ex. "Each fired projectile from this spell will have the speed and force of a standard longbow or hand crossbow projectile and may be as sharp as jagged stone." I'd also recommend adding the speed to the other projectiles (like bolt and arc), longbow arrow/hand crossbow bolt speed would be the likely one for Bolt, that's the standard for evocation spells given its interaction mostly with Air Evocation, Arc maybe as well? Though perhaps a redline for that about being Air Evocation Redirected? Edit: also prob add a redline like this like seen in Earth Evocation: - All projectiles, if fired simultaneously, must be fired in the same general direction. Once a maximum of 5 projectiles have been summoned, no more can be summoned and the spell must be cast again. Projectiles can be held back for 3 emotes before they fizzle out. Multiple projectiles may be fired at once, however, they must all be within the mage’s line of sight at once and all be fired in the same direction if this is the case, lest they dematerialize. These should probably be put to the same number, and perhaps specified if this means a mage can only use it twice/thrice because of complexity, or that it takes half their mana to do so. Perhaps go once, twice, thrice for T3, T4, and T5 respectively to let it scale? Perhaps word it more like "Boomsteel weaponry counts as 2 hits to a shield. Also, what is the Bubble's radius? Is it just around the caster (1m) or can it go to 3m like an Earthen Dome? Perhaps let that be decided in the casting (1-3m)? Does it take their Major Action to break the chains? And maybe a redline about forced movement (such as a gust spell) either breaking or not working. Also this is the coolest spell I've seen, the COMBOS you could pull off asdjhfaksldjfhlakf Probably change "fractions" to "fractures". And maybe put something of how hard was pushed? (ex. "If it isn't tied down or otherwise sufficiently restrained more than a grapple, it will be easily moved by the beam not unlike being continuously pushed by a strong gale or charging knight, causing some bruising and even fractures, however if the target is pinned against a surface such as the floor or a wall, the immense force will begin to cause internal trauma and broken bones where the ray hits, effectively sandwiching them between the ray and the surface.") Holy ****, maybe uh- maybe halve that? 10 meters is gonna launch someone 2x a T5 Air Evocation Gust. Maybe put methods to escape the beam too bc I'm uncertain how one would do that other than getting behind a wall. I feel like this should be twice instead of 3 times, like how most T5 spells are considered to exhaust someone. Is it a whole city in diameter? Or does it have a limit, such as a 20x20 region of the city? Or is it left to ET fiat? "One" to "Once", and I'd say "may only" personally? But also, imo, it might be better to limit it to T2 or lesser, since this already seems like a spell meant for Scions (which is AWESOME) and so it'd actually give a bit of a restriction? Sorry if this was a LOT but this honestly looks like the COOLEST magic write I've seen (I've not seen many, mainly just Lightning Evo bc they let me help a lil w/ that one :3) and I really wanna see this one pass (if I had the fortune to learn it, my silly mage girl would enjoy casting her spells all sparkly w/ constellations and shit I couldn't really do w/ elemental spells necessarily). Seriously, good work, and it looks absolutely stunning. It works almost entirely differently to the Elemental Evocations, which lets it stand out and not really overshadow any of them, which was my worry for seeing anything Arcanism-related. Amazing, amazing work, I wanted to give it my all for feedback because of that. Please, please let this pass😭.

Laurissa, the revolutionary who had—by luck and chance—led the coup that deposed Razad, finished her speech with a sheathing of that rapier of starsteel. She stepped her way past the crowds of people, those who had gathered around her and Faeryel to liberate the rule of the Academy of Hohkmat. A revolution she started out of a moment of heated emotions, of emotions she let boil to the point that she decided after her mistake to simply follow through and rattle the old man until he was put in his place. She echoed those words she spoke to him after her display of him as she descended the steps, “Momento mori . . . remember, ye are mortal.”

The Lady Magister of the Circle of Esotericism lofted her rapier of starsteel to the heavens. "Long live t'e Academy. Long live 'o'kmat!" A bolt of lightning would crash down from the sky and strike her blade, letting out a burst of sparks as it crackled along its ethereally glimmering surface. She had done it, she had deposed a tyrant.

Laurissa wiped the blood off her rapier, yet proud of her attempt as lightning crackled around her with a hum. “For an old crotchety ****, Razad needs to learn 'ow to grow up.” She paused a moment, furrowing her brow. “And 'e didn't approve t'at lesson wit' me . . . I'll need more of a word.”

Laurissa the Thriceblood gave her review, of utmost in depth description of her experience with the Waffle Castle salesmen and their curious cart-based culinary concoctions: “I surprisingly did not die. - Laurissa”

“A wonderful creditin' of my risks and efforts . . . I am not, in fact, an 'independent', nor an 'adventurer'.” A Lady Magister of Hohkmat grumbled as she looked over the page, “And it's 'Gnæfa', not 'Gnaefa'.” She corrected over pedantically.

It is genuinely baffling to be this attached to real world bigotry. If the categories of bigotry which are banned on the server were expanded to cover homophobia, what changes? What is so fundamentally altered that you feel you have to rally against such? I do not understand in the slightest. Edit, Addendum: To quote Reggie Fils Aime, "If it's not fun, why bother?" We are all here to play a game together, and if something is hindering people's ability to have fun with this game, then what fun of yours is being taken away to allow people to better enjoy their hobby?
