#FantasyIndiesMarch 29: I could rant for ages about my magic systems! Thankfully, I just did back in February!

If you want to hear about my science-based hard magic system for #TheDragonblood or my whimsical soft magic system for #MiwwduSitsomSelkieWIP, check out my posts for #Febchantment!

#FantasyIndiesMarch -29- Demon King Daughter
Soft-style, and has multiple, equal systems that interact globally. Runes, sigils, innate, elemental, holy, enchantment, curses are all very real in this setting. Can check out some of my #Febchantment posts for details!

This step provides an indicator of the behavior of the hives!

@sayaashrah.bsky.social asked about humans impacting the honey, so here's how it gradually degrades the product with more human proteins in the mixture linking this to my element system I touched on in #Febchantment a little.

Concept art piece. A large orb of blood hovers above the dias in the center of a ruined circular room. Broken stone tablets and iron chains litter the ground around the dias. The room is lit by a couple of wall mounted torches crafted in the shape of some horned horror. The blood orb radiates a dim red light, and the spiked humanoid form of the blood god is barely visible inside.

Arnkit, full name Arnkit'atla-husfrey'irkir, is the matron dragon of the Forest Flight of the Crulean Crest Tropics, lifemate to Verthrik, mother to four hatchlings: Smara-kogur, Vred'tiss, Herinn, and Kyrvat. She is a large green dragon standing several human lenghts tall, and has a large green crystal floating above her claws. Thicker brown plates run from her forehead down her tail that also supports a large retractable fin like sail that stands a few feed above each plate. She is an envoy of the Dragon Nation to the city of Alabandrin.

Character reference for Arsolvet the blood god in her true physical form, along with three variations of her favorite human form. Her true form stands around nine feet tall. Horned head, four glowing eyes, lip-less mouth of sharp teeth. Her skin is semi-transparent red that appears to move and flow like a pool of thick blood. On her neck, back and shoulders down to her ribs, as well as forearm and foreleg are dark red growths with spikes. Her human form is a red-headed woman standing around five foot eight, green eyes, sun-bronzed skin coloration. The three forms are nude reference, leather travel armor, and formal white dress.

Night scene in the hills over the city Alabandrin, Jeron and P'traltis rest in the snow and take in the view. Arnkit and her family fly overhead in the distance. The sky is lit by the aurora and the three moons.
-This was a challenge piece done in about a day; no real planning but I like how it turned out for the time spent.

#TheDragonblood: Don't know if this is my favourite, but it's one of the many fun ones. Aimetor is helping Felix identify his new magical crossbow, and they find two special levers…

Also, a nice look into how magic and science relate in this magic system! (1/2)

#TheDragonblood: I think the level of commitment to making the magic feel like it could be undiscovered physics, including a strict avoidance of symbolic magic, is rather unique for a fantasy setting. (1/5)

Cas, Andi, and Urena were all raised with intimate knowledge of Elationcraft, as well as elven religion. (Thread)

Oops, it's March - but let me answer the final few prompts for this just to close it out.

Casimir, Andi, and Urena - being deeply associated with elven culture/heritage - were all trained from a young age to use their Elationcraft abilities. (Thread)

Re-upping this because I mentioned the magic for gender transition in the #Febchantment prompts and, honestly, because I just really like this short story - Anneke's POV, for the first time, and a look behind the curtain at the Temple of Ashkenta:

Not necessarily my favorite, but I wanted to share a different one.

I haven't really been hyping up Daniel's magic all that much, but he and Matay really do work really well together as a pair when fighting and hunting down evil mages

Magic in my world has a bit of a part to play in every major cultural event. The Black Plague? Mabon's doing. Pompeii? Vulcan was having a hissy fit cuz a project didn't go right. The rise of Christianity? Demiurge figures schemed to funnel the power of faith & worship for themselves.

Thank you @professoremily.bsky.social for the prompts.

I'm not sure if it's canon but in my head how the scene goes is that the characters are singing "The Sun Sits Low" from a Little Night Music and it actually stops the sun from setting. Not sure if it's canon.

It's cheating to say but all of it. I like the concept of Ink, I like the different fields of magic and how there's natural magic versus arcanology. I love the limit and danger I put for poetic magic. I just love it.

Magic enables the practitioner to write their will into the very fabric of the universe itself, sometimes even in cosmically-significant ways. For some, that is the goal entirely. For others, it is a risk to be managed. For many, it is dangerous and foolish to attempt.

Weakest are elves with weak powers, creatures with weak powers, and people who took one course in arcanology. Most are mid-level mages and of course you have the skilled masters. Gods of knowledge are the most powerful and the main character is pretty far up.

#Febchantment UGH there are spoilers for every magic scene I love. So I’ll share one I feel is good. But I wish I could share some of the more epic parts.

@professoremily.bsky.social thank you for hosting! It gave me a chance to ramble about the magic system I had the best time creating!

#Febchantment

You can say magic is 'extralegally' regulated. The Grand Design holds a near monopoly on magical research, and has successfully pushed magic out of the realm of public knowledge and acceptance. They are nearly unmatched in their level of control over anything magic in my world.

Most people have recorded mythology and history because it is a college degree but the Main character has an intimate knowledge of it's history.

#Febchantment Day 24
Most arcanologist are taught in college, some have private tutors and very rarely are they self taught. Main character was sort of born knowing arcanology, very precocious. Nature magic is random and you just have it if you have it.

In the first story for this world it's kind of like dishonored 1 where it's a huge part of the world building and does affect the story but it isn't the drive for the plot. In later stories it is more involved.

Don't really have a snippet but a literature arcanologist might write themselves an umbrella on a rainy day. Music arcanologist will hum a lullaby to help their kid fall asleep.

#TheDragonblood: Well, the strongest have to be the gods. Gnaramater and Deiuoreks are the most powerful of them. I think Deiuoreks is the stronger of the two in terms of raw power. Gnaramater is the better of the two in terms of skill at shaping magic into intricate spells. (1/5)

Thank you to @professoremily.bsky.social for hosting a wonderful #Febchantment.

I almost missed the last day, but I found a snippet I was going to use for casual magic, but I thought it was better for this day.

#Febchantment What a ride! This was fun, and so many creative magic systems out there! 😄

It's not the most detailed moment, but I always liked this scene where my witch girl slashes a demon's face with the water from her fish tank. 👀

Thank you for #Febchantment!! I'm excited for what numen turns out to be👀 (I vote little glowy dudes running really fast through the tubes)

Struggled all day to decide what to share. The best stuff is all spoilers…

Decided to defy the prompt like the naughty boy I've been all month. "ok Alexander"

Levitate is probably my favorite spell because when I was developing magic, I wanted to make sure "Flight" was hard, and not something everyone could do. So I made a golden path that you still have to hoof it on.
