Can we use Gravity or Smellofasunset as an element in our spells? Or is it just the primals?


Heh, just realized. We've got:
Cryomancer
Chronomancer
Spellsword
Golemancer

Unlimited potential and most of us are pushing themselves towards specialisation.
What's that say about humanity?

Nope, you can't use any elements other then primal ones. That isn't to say that there aren't creatures out there that use the more useful lesser elements, but the vast majority of mages are stuck with just the primal elements.
I really like the specialization actually, I think it would be worth it to add in an incentive to specialize more thoroughly (or more accurately, make using more specific spells (eg. multiple golem spells, powerful time spells) be less effective without having it as a known skill), but I can't really figure out a good way to do it simply and clearly.

It says they aren't very good at guessing what others are doing. Ahahaha.

Still waiting on three people's actions. Avis, Xantlos and Remu.

I am aware of the hypocrisy inherent in bothering other people about their turns while I just took a week and a half to write up the latest one, but.... Um... Look over there!

Nobody else is getting a sense of forboding regarding the tomb of MYRTA?
I mean, what do it's three primal elements even look like.

I dunno, bounty hunter or something? The 'Mage hand' thing kind of tips it. Somehow I doubt you made that so that you could drag the past-bowl of peanuts closer towards you.

[Xantalos]

Hmm. Well, let's try this.

Shoot orb with that death fire bolt I made - the one that shortens life spans or whatever.

It's so I can move my Shards around, for optimal stabbing, and so I can influence things I've stuck with one.

but.... Um... Look over there!

Oh joy, there goes the GM again.

SPE-spe-specialization breaker!

Spoiler: A Door to the Plane of Infinite Knives (click to show/hide)

Earth/Chaos/Death. A portal opens between the caster's hands, spewing a shower of razor-sharp metal fragments in a cone.

Spoiler: Timewarp Cloak (click to show/hide)

Order/Order/Air. Creates a sphere of slowed time around the caster. The sphere doesn't reduce the velocity of the objects entering it - a knife thrown at 15 m/s will emerge at 15 m/s...Only much later, giving the caster time to block or move out of the way. The sphere works only one way.

Ven rolls up his sleeves and yells, - Oy, Orb-guardian-thingy! Wakey-wakey or I'ma start the stabby-stabby!

((Sorry about that - lost the charger from my tablet, couldn't post))

Hey, stop taking my words out of context. :/

Still waiting for remuthra's action before I can run the turn.

[Remuthra]

Spoiler: Spell Creation (click to show/hide)

Sign of the Earthshaker- Upon completion, this spell summons to the subjects hands a massive silver maul known as the Earthshaker. Wielding the weapon two-handed increases the caster's strength heavily, allowing them to swing the preternaturally heavy hammer. Upon swinging, the great sledge head develops a great attraction for the ground, smashing through anything in the way with immense force and slamming into the earth, the weapon's name coming from the tremors given off by its impact.

Chaos- For the quantum hammering part.
Life- For the transfiguration part.
Earth- For the metal part.

Joe picks up the orb and examines it. Perhaps he could just shatter it?

How do cooldowns work?

[lemon10]

After you use a spell, there is a 3 turn cooldown before you can use it again. Strong spells have 4 turn cooldown, while spells using your weak element have no cooldown.

A 3 turn cooldown means that you cannot use that spell again for three turns after casting (or that you can cast it every 4 turns).
So: Cast, wait, wait, wait, cast.

[Remuthra]

That first 4 was supposed to be a 3, I think.

[lemon10]

Right you are. 
Fixed it.

You running turn 10?
