    [ Revisions ] Blood Magic Variation

    in Denied Lore

    Posted

    Blood Magic is very grey, and is not inherently evil.

    Has it been used to conduct unspeakable acts? Yes.

     

    Of course this is not the magic's fault, more so it's users which are primarily of the "evil/neutral/chaotic" role. If this power were to fall into the hands of a hero "lawful/neutral/good/chaotic" whatever, depending on how they utilize this newly unlocked talent... could actually make role play very interesting. It could be considered morally wrong, but that is what I would like to call an opinion. Opinions are fine! In my opinion, I could see a very tough; very devout druid dipping into "darker arts" in self sacrifice to accomplish feats no other druid could ever achieve in the heat of the moment. There are many really interesting arch-types for what makes a player's character fulfill the role "anti-hero" or just being bad at what they do. There is no right or wrong here. Same can be said for clerics, mages, and paladins. Though I understand that is a very iffy subject as it is.

    I fully support an idea like this, I think we should find new ways to break boundaries in sub-types and adapt our lore, find ways to interlink lore with other lore. This also should be a reminder to every other magic group that there is no limit to this. You can always come up with ideas like this for your own magics, lore additions are a thing for that very reason! I think this is the first step in a wonderful direction for storytelling and character development.

     

    I don't think we should be denying this idea outright because it could be seen as morally wrong, or actually breaking rules; because it doesn't. Lore is meant to adapt, not stagnate. If anything, I believe the lore should be changed to fit a more broader neutral background then to be called "dark" magic and evil.

     

    Anyways, keep the discussion clean folks!

    List 3 poses:

    Aurum sword held in his right hand; the head of a fiend perhaps in his left. The glorious moment after a successful hunt pretty much!

    List 3 objects: His swords on his back, head of woteva beast you feel like making, and I guess his stag medallion hanging from his neck.
