So I'm working on fleshing out the magic system, and I'm feeling myself plagued with anxiety, like [i][b]"Why am I putting so much work into this? People are gonna be pushing the limits of it pretty much right away and I don't want to be constantly correcting people or asking them to fix issues in their posts. The stricter I make the system, the more work I'm going to have to put in to enforce it. I just want everyone to have fun and for this RP to be a zero-stress environment."[/b][/i] Plus I've come down with bronchitis and feel like shit, LOL. So, a lot of my ideas for a strict magic system are going to be reserved for my novels and I'm just gonna make it more freeform in this RP. We'll just say Qrowdell Academy is a school for the most gifted Magi in the Mortal Planes, so that everyone can feel free to play their power fantasies right away, and that also saves me the trouble of having to correct people and enforce a system. I will still monitor the narrative, of course, and may ask for corrections if plotholes develop. I'm scrapping my ideas for specific proficiency levels in various types of magic, and allowing everyone to be attuned to whatever types of magic they want. I'm removing any and all restrictions - other than keeping the narrative intact - and in doing so, saving myself the trouble of having to enforce any limitations. Because I'm sick and this is a holiday week, the main thread still won't be up until Friday or possibly over the weekend, but once it does go live, I'm just going to have a few paragraphs explaining some basics and then we'll roll with it.
