Lore drop thread(Sorta spoilers)

Vetex does what ever he wants, I’m not saying it’s not supposed to be, I’m saying it isn’t in practice.

what are you saying

It’s MEANT to be greek mythology with a twist, but it’s too far gone for me to say it’s so.

i suppose the entire earth did explode, but it is still greek mythology so all the creatures and gods from it do exist

Hows that exclude something that exists in greek mythology from existing though?

Well, that may have been an oversight on my part, but I feel like it’s still in the realm of having “Human Magic”. If we get meat magic, I’ll humor dragon magic as a possibility, but it’s still really cool.

How exactly is a dragons flame as magic so ridiculous

i thought we were talking about phoenixes existing, not dragon magic

Dragons in AO don’t specifically breathe fire though, they have a single magic, and as cool as dragonfire would be as a magic, dragons are creatures, and creature magics ain’t quite a thing.

Why couldnt they be

vetex did say something once about excluding creature magics, though tbh i don’t see why and it could be outdated now

We have phoenix magic. It doesn’t involve the actual bird that is the phoenix, but it exists. If phoenix magic can exist, so can a hypothetical dragonfire magic if it’s not related to actual dragons or anything like that

stock does have a fair point though about dragons in ao not just being fiery

Eh, sure.
Would really just be Phoenix 2

Creature magic sounds like more of a Spirit Energy thing with the updated lore doc. Since they get biomancy and all that. I have a character who can sprout animal parts and weaponize them, from ram horns to toxic jellyfish hair.

I’m not advocating for the existence of a dragonfire magic or whatever, I don’t really care about that. just pointing out that if phoenix can exist, it can too.
also that statement about it basically just being phoenix 2 is just wrong, even if I’m trying to be objective here, since phoenix has unique properties that wouldn’t all collectively appear in a new magic unless a copy of phoenix magic was specifically what they were going for (in which I have enough faith in Vetex to avoid doing THAT much at the very least)

We dont entirely know how that works yet though

Is that Elden Ring? I should probably get into it sometime. I’ve heard a lot of good things

I got it like a week ago
It’s really good, would recommend

Yeah, you got dudes who have neat dragon-related powers
