30 more minutes to vote guys. Also you guys should know how the magic system works, Essentially there are 4 schools of Elemental Magic It works as is following.

Earth Opposes Air
Air Opposes Earth
Fire Opposes Ice
Ice Opposes Fire

Elements are strong against themselves and weak against the element that opposes it. The more you learn in one school of Elemental Magic the harder it is to use the Opposing School, Now are you sure you want to become a Dabbling/Novice Fire Mage?

Aren't Ice and Fire two sides of the same coin though? Cold is an Absense of heat, meaning both Ice Magic and Fire Magic control heat.

[LuckyKobold]

Yes it's just that they can utilize it differently, For example an Ice mage could throw an Ice Spike,Whereas a Fire Mage could throw a Fireball and so on.

[~Neri]

Ice Magic sounds considerably more difficult. Since they would need to:

Condense water in air in significant quantities. Indicating control of either air or water.

Remove a sufficient quanity of heat to freeze. Control of heat.

And launch it as a kinetic projectile. Control of kinetic energy.

Fire Magic required:

A quantity of Oxygen or other flammable gases to be gathered in a dense ball form with a nonflammable packet of gas to keep it in ball form. Indicating high level control of air. Most likely kinetic control.

Heat control to ignite.

Launching ball at target but keeping packet intact. Air or kinetic again.

Ice magic is it is,Bah! Why are you so good at arguing Kevak, Now I'm over-thinking my Elemental magic system. Besides Ice Magic does have a lot more versatility and there's the added bonus of being near immune to thirst.

[birdy51]

With Ice, you don't necessarily have to throw a ball of pure ice. Cold enough temperatures in a ball would be chill enough to cause enough issues on their own end to be considered worth it. Why throw a block of ice when you can just freeze the enemy using their own water? It's certainly more defensive than fire in some respects though, as it can be used to create barriers and obstacles.

Fire is a one trick pony.

[~Neri]

Perhaps have most of the stuff done be intuitive. Good mages figure out what they do and why to learn new things.

[LuckyKobold]

That was a good argument birdy51, Thank you for your opinion Kevak,but this is all besides the point, Which weapon do you want training in?

[~Neri]

Magic.

[LuckyKobold]

Which the Fire Magic, Or the Bardic Magic?

[Prophet]

Wait Bardic Magic! Bardic Magic then.

[LuckyKobold]

Yes the Musical Triangle does count as a focus for bardic magic.

[Prophet]

Well since I like +1ing things +1 to bardic magic.

[LuckyKobold]

OK
Bardic Magic:2
Fire Magic:2

don't be afraid to vote, Also with Bardic Magi if you sound terrible you can actually cause damage to everything in hearing distance.

[Generally me]

Long sword cause stabbing stuff is fun and let's get ice magic not fire

Also long sword in one hand ice magic in the other = Ownage
