[Elephant Parade]

Now I'm imagining some apocalypse world spawned by Husking clouds roaming the world.

Sounds pretty interesting, actually.

The option of developing space travel ASAP and running to Hatvia is looking more and more appealing.

Yes, it is.

Keep in mind that the Space Age is not where space travel is first available, just where it because mainstream.
A simple moon landing could be made as early as the Atomic Age, maybe sooner under unusual circumstances.

Now, the question: how do we wizards bend the rules and preserve our magic? Could we flee to another world?

[Execute/Dumbo.exe]

Well, I'm only saying I'm not war HUNGRY, I never said I wasn't going to be war PREPARED, and because my forces won't be so spread out from qonquesting and stuff, my forts will be much tougher to take down.

Speaking of masthacheese, you should also include a blank grey map which is basically the underground, adds more tactical depth, both physically and technically, also you could just use it if anybody wants to do a PM drilling operation to literally undermine somewhere or just for mining for minerals.

I think we'd get along just fine... You give me your dead and defeated enemies, and I give you my hand in friendship, meaning you point me to a project and my zombies and hands will try to help build it or dig up the area... Wait... I may need to create Husks for this... QUICK! DISCOVER THE SECRETS OF HUSK CLOUDS!

I wouldn't do it, magma burns corpses... But destruction magic is kind of haphazard, meaning if I use it, it will probably obliterate EVERYTHING in that area...

I think this is what it would look like:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Meaning I'd have an EXTREMELY deadly spell, but I'd more then likely kill myself in the process... And everything in a massive area as well... And the other wizards and gods would probably try and destroy me before I use it...

(I think that would be a fine diplomatic agreement, and scince I'm going to be science based (mainly developing tech) I think I would be happy to create synthetic husk clouds for you.

Remember, I'm not war crazy, but I'm not to be taken lightly.)

Now, the question: how do we wizards bend the rules and preserve our magic? Could we flee to another world?

That's something you'll have to figure out on your own.

But I'll tell you this:
There are at least 3 different ways currently in the world that will prevent the loss of magic.

[Execute/Dumbo.exe]

The most obvious one would be none would follow science but I'm already going to be science based so that's out the window, the next would be if someone became so powerful they wouldn't fade out but what's the third one?

Actually, neither of those were factored into my saying that there were at least 3 ways.

I mean 3 ways that magic would fade, except for you.

Preventing the advance of civilization would certainly be effective, though.
As for the sheer power, it would only prolong it.

There'll be some jerk who'll probably try and destroy a part of hatvia in an evil plan. It's not going to be me, because I'm going to appear as this evil figure but actually be rather kind and protective of the area, and seem rather misplaced with his magics. Think of him as a death sympathizer.

His backstory would be he lost a good friend and searched ways to bring him back to life, but went down the wrong path and descended into a dark magic; undeath. This caused him to try and create new forms of undead with hopes of being able to return the living from death. When magic fades, he will die, and I'll take over as a Human settlement of the abandoning followers, who will be MUCH behind on tech, but will be VERY VERY friendly because of fear of their secret getting out.

Mostly doing this to see how it will work out

[Elephant Parade]

I'm assuming the gods would be involved, or perhaps Death or Hell. Perhaps a deal for your soul is one of them?

Either way, it won't matter if I can make intelligent, self-modifying golems. My legacy shall live on past the death of magic!

See, the cool thing about golems is that I can slowly change them to being tech-based as magic fades.

Actually, no, I hadn't factored those, either.
I meant physical things on Gia itself.

Yeah, that's pretty clever.

[Elephant Parade]

I'm changing my action to gain true mastery over golems, because that's the main thing I've been doing anyway. Later on I'll become a wizard of robotics.

Devices of the gods, perhaps?

[Execute/Dumbo.exe]

True, you would be able to make a utopia, also I wouldn't mind if We could have an alliance, we both seem to be working towards a scientific goal, and two heads are better than one, right?

[Xantalos]

Does this magic fading affect my shenanigans? The ones we discussed?

[squidgen]

Does this magic fading affect my shenanigans? The ones we discussed?

Wait, secret Xantalos shenanigans? GET ME OFF GIA NOW!!!

[mastahcheese]

Does this magic fading affect my shenanigans? The ones we discussed?

No, we're talking about Arcane magic.
You're Divine, so this doesn't affect that.

[highmax28]

Well, I just hope neither of you just s*** on the new player (me) as I try to figure things out

They shouldn't, particularly since the rules will change so astronomically, everyone will be figuring things out.
