What magic(s) will you be teaching?

         Sorvian Sculpting

Describe this magic or a creature as a whole:

Sorvian Sculpting as a magic is the act of scultping and granting life to Sorvians. This is done through two main parts: Incanting, and Awakening. Though there exists also the Revival aspect, used for both reviving destroyed Sorvians and healing injured ones. These sections will be described in greater detail below, alongside the actual strengths/weaknesses/personalities of the Sorvian's themselves.

- A Sorvian Sculpter may only sculpt up to 3 Sorvians per 3 month period. There is no limit on non-playable Sorvian Newts however, on the premise that their existence is for aesthetic function/flavor.

- A Sorvian may learn Sorvian Sculpting as well(though no other magic requiring a soul), but is only capable of crafting 1 Sorvian per 3 month period instead of 3.

Are there different sections or subsections of magic? Can those be elaborated upon?

Incanting:

Incanting is the process wherein the Sculptor creates the mask of the Sorvian, requiring it to be made of porcelain with necessary holes for both eyes and a mouth. The sculptor must inscribe on the inside of the mask with their blood, infusing with it a small portion of their soul that leaves them feeling weak and vulnerable for a short time. The incantation itself is nonsense, constantly changing yeehaw runes. Once crafted, the Mask remains inanimate until placed on a suitable husk(Awakening). The Mask may change once the Sorvian is created, altering itself aesthetically to align with the ideals and behaviors of the Sorvian. The mask is also fairly durable, requiring 3 solid hits(regardless of weapon) in order to break. If it is damaged, it will mend itself automatically over 1 IRL Day.

Awakening:

Awakening is the process where the Sculptor places the incanted mask onto a suitable husk. This is what turns the husk into a sorvian as light envelops them. The wood within the husk turning to a brittle bone-like substance, and the clay into flesh. The mask becomes part of them now, unable to be removed.

The husk, prior to awakening, must meet certain criteria:

- 1 to 2 feet tall(if an unplayable Newt).

- 2 to 3 feet tall(if a playable Newt).

- 3-6 feet tall(if playable normal Sorvian)

- Humanoid/Halfling in terms of proportions.

- Wood as bones.

- Clay as flesh.

Husks are difficult to make for budding Sculptors as they require anatomical correctness, which takes time to learn. Skilled Sculptors may add additional appendages to their Sorvian's however, such as four arms instead of two - though this divides the strength within them. A Sorvian, once made, may never have new additions to their body; only repairs.

Revival:

This section talks about how to revive a dead Sorvian, or heal an injured one. Sorvians do not have blood and thus do not bleed when injured, but they do not heal from injuries either and thus require assistance in mending themselves. If in the form of a severed limb, a new one can be crafted and put into place with a new incantation of blood placed at the stub. Wet clay mixed with the sculptor's blood can patch other injuries. Either way, scars are left behind - permanent marks that do not fade upon the Sorvian, remaining even if they are destroyed and reformed outright. A Sorvian who knows Sorvian Sculpting may heal themselves but will require someone else's blood.

A Sorvian may perish by:

- Having its head removed[They survive 1 emote before surely perishing]

- Having its mask destroyed[Instantaneous death]

- Having its chest pierced[5 emotes before death] - This may be 'patched' temporarily, requiring proper healing via the Revival aspect.

SORVIANS CANT HAVE SEX. NO FTB. NONE. ZERO. AAAA.

A Sorvian who has fully died may either have their original mask placed on a new husk, causing their new body to shape into their old down to the last microscopic detail. Alternatively, if their mask is destroyed, any Sorvian Sculptor may reform their mask and incantation in order to conjure them again with all their memories intact, as well as their body yet matching their old(they do not retain memories of them dying, following all death-recap rules). A sculptor may only revive 1 Sorvian per IRL Day.

Sorvians:

Sorvian's themselves are not incredibly durable. They are tolerant to pain, known to see pain as dull long-term aches rather than sharp agony. They have flesh and bone but no muscle or tendons, and thus are easy to cut through. In return however, they are agile and nimble - ambidextrous. They are smooth and hairless. They have average hearing/eyesight. Sorvians start their life with a neutral range for their voice, though are fast learners and over a year will become a social chameleon in terms of their accent/pitch to whatever culture they spend their time with. Sorvians have no need to breath.

Sorvians will always have a deep set respect geared towards their Sculptor, incapable of doing anything to intentionally harm them. They have wills of their own however, and are capable of disagreeing with their Sculptor; though are yet bound to obey so long as the command is not directly suicide(more specifically, relinquishing their mask). Past this, a Sorvian is naturally a curious entity that, due to the empty mind they are born with, is easily impressionable within their first years of life; able to become madly obsessed with any facet of life that they wish to be. This can be pursued at their leisure when not under orders from their Sculptor. Additionally, in the case of the death of their Sculptor, they are considered free to do as they please without restraint. In general, they are not considered dependent on their Sculptor.

If a Sorvian's chosen ideology is challenged, they will either go through impossible loops to maintain their viewpoints, or they will have a psyche break - a mental reset where they consider themselves a new person, albeit with memories of an old, and start anew.

Can you give an example of a casting emote, of a spell of your choice?

Lefkos moved throughout his workshop, busy as he added the finishing touches to a mask - a plain white mask with no discernible features beyond its eyes and mouth. With a thin paintbrush, one end fitted with a small blade, he slices a cut into his arm. And with blood as his ink he wrote upon the back of the mask, silently pouring his heart into the words he wrote - for the Sorvian that would be born of him. To any onlooker, it was nonsense; words that would shift and change constantly, unreadable and unknowable. But that was the nature of his intentions and the creature he made as he moved to a clay doll he had prepared earlier. One that looked like a human in every right, only quite short at four feet tall. Made of clay, and bones of carved wood. Lefkos set the mask down upon its face as a bright flash of light overtook it and the room for but an instant - and when it fades there lay a Sorvian. Clay turned flesh, and the mask now fused onto its head. Unmoving yet as it became accustomed to its new life. From this, Lefkos sat himself down at his prepared chair, a weak smile offered as he watches his creation begin to stir. He was tired now.

Can you give an example of a teaching-emote (interacting with another) of a spell of your choice?

Lefkos kneels down next to James over the injured Sorvian, surveying the damage. A missing arm. He gives a nod to James, "I would like you to prepare a limb. Exactly as you would a fresh husk. Take your time, make sure it is correct - and try to match the other limb as much as possible."

James gives a small nod of his head and begins to work. In the workshop he found his tools and began to sculpt, first carving what would become the bones. A simple shape for the larger bones, but suddenly slowing down when it came to the hands; taking to his many small pieces. They would be here for a while, working.

[!]Considering that IRP this is quite a long process, there would likely be just filler here. Discussions related to the theoretical roleplay that caused the injuries, etc, while James works at sculpting the limb. Then the clay around the bones. Any mistakes caught and pointed out during this, though in truth there isn't really a lot of room for error here - you'd have to really get this wrong.

James finishes the limb and makes his way to the pair, holding it quite carefully. The clay freshly molded around the wooden bones, looking for all intents and purposes as though a human limb made of clay. "It's ready. Do I just... Shove it on?"

Lefkos chuckles and shakes his head. "Not quite. You'll be adding an inscription to it, the exact same way that you initially create a mask. When you do that, it will create a scene.. Similar, to what happens when you place a mask on. Only centralized to the arm. It will then shift to become exactly like the original limb."

James then proceeds to, using his own blood produced with a quick cut against the back of his arm, scribble an inscription upon the stump of the arm where it would connect with the remaining nub on the Sorvian. With the contact, he would flinch back as a flash of light engulfs the arm. It was connected!

Sorvian would look down at the arm as the light fades, watching as its previous gained scars would reappear. Small shifts in the arm occurring to ensure it was a perfect replica of the lost one, with one new addition; a circular scar where it connected to the nub. A new story upon its skin, never to fade.

Teaching of course mixed with private messages ensuring the understanding of the technical OOC aspect of things

Say your student powergames during or after teaching, how do you reprimand that?

If it's a minor issue that can be resolved within the parties present - then that. Followed by a re-teaching of the issue at hand. If its an issue with the ST's involvement, let that play out and again re-teach. Then of course if there is repeated issues and the student hasn't been blacklisted or anything they'd simply be dropped.

If this happens repeatedly over multiple students, the issue might be me.

Elaborate.

The Arcane Wardens exists as an Order of Wizards known as Arcane Scions, combining physical might with magical prowess in order to better serve their cause. At a base level existing on the principle of upholding balance in all things voidal; serving as a force to stand against the occult entities of the realm. Each and every member, bar those who explicitly chose not to make a connection, bear some form of voidal prowess; most commonly in the form of the Arcane Scion.

Translocation keeps getting mad buffs for no reason in the teleportation bit but I'd like the expatriation bit to get some more love instead

What magic(s) will you be teaching?

         Atronach Forging

Describe this magic or a creature as a whole:

Atronach Forging is the art of creating elemental constructs and bestowing them with sentience, living as their own being to a certain degree. These constructs are long lasting, learning over the duration of their existence - though always maintaining a more robotic/logic-based thought process, this showing in their tone of voice as well. They are bound to follow the will of their creator strictly, unable to work against them. Beyond this, Atronachs bear a weakness to Abjuration; and can be made from one of the 4 elemental evocations(some of them having multiple options). In total, an Atronach Forger can make atronachs out of: Fire, Water(Water or Ice), Earth(Earth or Sand), Air, or Telekinesis. The elemental ones require either the forger themselves to be able to cast the element needed, or to have assistance from someone who can. All of the Atronachs have certain abilities they can cast, mirroring the element of their creation; or in the case of Telekinesis, foregoing their defensive bodies for a more offensive presence.

An Atronach is forged first with a core; a managem surrounded by Arcanium, and given a grand enchantment in order to apply sentience to the atronach. From there, a secondary enchantment it utilized in order to apply an element to the Atronach; requiring either a wizard who knows the element, or the forger themselves if they are aware of it. Along this, platings are made of various materials that make logical sense(no wood for fire) to grant the Atronach a defined shape. This is usually as a humanoid figure, though it could be more animal-like or unique; though any extra limbs split the atronachs strength evenly among them all. The strength/casting ability of an atronach is determined entirely by the element they are forged of. They are weak against abjuration type effects, and can be destroyed - requiring reforging - if their core is hit a few times solidly.

Lastly, an Atronach requires to be recharged once every 2 OOC weeks, either by an Atronach Forger, Tier 5 Transfigurationist, or a mana obelisk if a mana ley line has been created in order to funnel mana into them. Alternatively, any wizard can move mana from an obelisk to the Atronach if one is present; requiring a Transfigurationist/Atronach Forger only if no such obelisk is present.

Overall, the process to create an atronach is relatively freeform. The above are the absolute requirements, but there are no set required emote-amounts or strict requirements necessary on how one does their forging aesthetic.

Are there different sections or subsections of magic? Can those be elaborated upon?

Atronach Drones and Atronach Limbs;

Atronach Drones: A smaller, non-sentient creation which is made specifically for non-combative and mundane day to day tasks. Their primary function, oftentimes, is to act as a mage’s assistant. They offer no direct benefit in any situation of conflict, incapable of affecting those situations in any way; including, but not limited to - blocking exits, attacking, 'spying'/listening or distracting anyone. These are not played by players, instead existing as a supplement to the roleplay of the Atronach Forger themselves(or whoever they have given one to). These require ST signed items.

Atronach Limbs: Utilizing the same process as full blown Atronachs, and their minor Drones, an atronach limb is used to replace a mage’s limb. These appendages are capable of being imbued with elemental Void Magic and offer slight advantages in both day to day life as well as combat if a telekinetic limb is forged. They may be enchanted separately, akin to any other item. If a grand enchantment is used, the limb must be constructed from an Arcanium majority.

Can you give an example of a casting emote, of a spell of your choice?

Atronach Forging:

Can you give an example of a teaching-emote (interacting with another) of a spell of your choice?

Atronach Limb Forging:

Say your student powergames during or after teaching, how do you reprimand that?

Assuming that the ST recognize the student as learning and scold me instead of the student, I would inform them that if they have failed to understand the spell, assume they do not know it any longer, and I would teach them again with much more scrutiny. If this became a repeat offender, I would drop them as a student.

If this happens multiple times over multiple students, the problem is me and I probably shouldn't have a TA. I'm confident this is not the case.

Blue fire gives 3rd degrees and even charring effects, so I wanted the dry ice to give a similar damage.

My point is that you need to explain that in this piece. Don't say "reference fire evo lore to know the damage of this water evocation spell" - that is incredibly poor planning.

Explain the damage of your spell inside of the context of your spell, not by pointing the reader to have to read a different lore piece.

I do not like the first spell, doesnt fit with the lore.

I do like the second spell. However:

upon long, constant exposure, frostbites might happen (Same effect as charring for blue fire for a Fire Evocationist)

This doesnt make sense. You're comparing 2 unalike things. There is no defined 'charring' effect in fire evocation. Its mention there is as an aesthetic secondary to the degree of burns detailed. Additionally you mention requiring long/constant exposure, something not required to grant the initial burn of blue fire.

Overall I think using fire as a comparison for the damage of ice is frankly silly. You should define the damage your dry ice does in the spell instead of making a comparison to an unrelated magic(overall you did straight up copy the idea of blue fire and reword it for ice, which is fine, but you need to bear in mind that differences exist for reasons too. One is water and ice. One is fire. They dont NEED to be the same effect.)
