Welcome and Salutations AdmriStalfos19! Thank you kindly for the compliment. To be honest I was actually surprise myself with the prologue I wrote. It came out better than I thought it would. Once I start writing, the ideas just start flowing. Sometimes it's great, sometimes it just okay, and quite often horrendous. hahaha. Anyway, I believe there was a question somewhere in your post. I suppose to answer that question I'll need to know what exactly mean by alchemy. Do you mean like pseudo-chemist type character who doesn't necessarily fully understand what they are doing? Something more along the lines of Fullmetal Alchemist. Or something more in-between the two, like actually turning lead into gold. All three are okay, the third I would like a structure in place (I love structured magic systems), and preferably I would like the magical options to tie into the concept of a sense based magic system. I feel like touch would be a good one for that, perhaps you touch an object and feel its physical and chemical properties and then see which ones fit together like working out a puzzle. Like a hyper-enhanced sense of touch. I think something like that would be far better then the touch magic system I wrote. The one I wrote was me tying in a magic system I made long ago into this idea. Also heat sensing I think is technically another sense altogether, separate of the five, but that's okay. Also I'm okay with magics that represents a combination of senses if that helps. Magic deterrents will still be a thing, but we can discuss how that will work.
