I hate to sound nitpickey considering this just started, and I could be reading it wrong, but my starting fire spells seem bland compared to the others. Like for example, Earth can hold a target in place and knock people over. Whereas for fire, I can shoot a fireball, and then I can shoot a better fireball.

Again, could be misreading it, and I'll make do if all else fails (they are just starting spells after all). Just thought I'd put my 2 cents out there.

Hmmm... I'll set you up with a different second starting rather than Fira. You have a point. But you also have to remember that using magic in this RP is also subjecting yourself to a random knockout or loss of HP in combat. Magic is a very dangerous thing in this world, but it's a supplemental thing as well. Your magic is not meant to be your main weapon in combat. 

EDIT - Changed Fira to Ember.
