this isn’t really true though, while scrolls are the method of learning new magics used in the war seas, the seven seas still uses mutations since they aren’t as advanced in magic and haven’t found out how to use scrolls yet
honestly i think one could even argue the opposite, that scrolls are a better showcase of skill than mutations, as they are learnt through studying and figuring out how to shape your magic into the specific effect described on the paper, while mutations are just gotten from being strong and going through a hard trial
i see one as skill and the other as raw strength in their methods for obtaining new magics
Hmm, yeah, I suppose that works too. Though, mutations and the og concept of magic being tied to your character’s personality does make it feel a little more personal and representative of a character itself… but I guess that can still extend to magic scrolls as well. It was done in Frieren really well
i think with the high amount of rare, lost, and ancient spells planned that later down the line magics will actually be more unique than in arcane adventures, when they all had the same 6 kind of moves just with different variations
yea, when magic scrolls are added i hope they don’t function just like spell scrolls where you click it and instantly learn it, it would be nice if they had some sort of quest attached to them that you had to complete before you could learn the magic
Actually that would be so cool. Imagine you get an Inferno scroll or something then you have to complete the “Trial of Inferno” or whatever and fight a boss or locate a reagent on a dangerous island or something.
maybe at some point in the story you could get a way to awaken your latent god power’s thing. possibly even you could choose which god, but thats based on my theory that the aa character is a legacy of several different gods (closer to E.G.O., besides cooler than just getting a new magic)
yeah because reading some soggy paper is leagues harder than having centuries of experience to shape yourself, morph yourself through tragedies and happy moments
guys funny idea
I made an entire mutation system but it never got suggested
check it out:
When you get a magic scroll, instead of a “lost” or “ancient” scroll, It’ll just be called a(n) “(insert magic here)” scroll. These scrolls are for one of these trees: fire, lightning, light, shadow, ice, water, explosion, wood, glass, or wind. It would give you one “point” in that category, and you use the point to invest in one magic. For example, if you get a fire scroll, you could invest it in sun or flare magic. If you pick flare and then get another fire scroll, you could choose between phoenix and inferno, but if you decided sun, you could invest in inferno and scorch, and so on. The ui would look the same as choosing dodge reflexes, but it would show you the tree chart underneath the option(s).
also you don’t need a magic to start their tree (if you had fire, for example, you could still use the glass tree)
who here thinks this should be added
idk
also if you have suggestor privileges please submit this
(edit)
since flash magic is now canon, you can get it from evolving light
