Medical Ethics, Autonomy, Justice, Beneficence, Non-maleficence.

Most wizards try to unlock the ability to transform into a being of pure plasmic energy.

Many only manage to reach the liquid state.

Many more so fail to return back into a solid.

>Many more so fail to return back into a solid.
I gave up at solid and said fuck the rest.

The four styles of magic are based on the four cardinal directions. North (magnetism), South (ice and wind), East (fire and light, for the sunrise) and West (darkness, for the sunset.)

>Electricity, repulsion and attraction-based flight, telekinesis
>Crushing, antigrav flight, telekinesis
>Creation, propulsion-based flight, probably telekinesis
>Disintegration/decay, no flight, probably no telekinesis
Seems kind of unbalanced.

The four styles of magic are based on manipulation 4 Key Design Principles for Emails in 2016 & Beyond, Hierarchy, Speed, Flexibility, or Accessibility.

That's pretty close to how I do it, but I map fire to heat rather than plasma

Cooking is the closest thing we have to a magical system in real life. It has an immense amount of lore, with different schools that people dedicate themselves to and study for their whole lives. Cooks also wear tall hats.

Anything involving chemistry is close to actual magic, because that's what magic was, is. People trying to understand the forces of nature.

>The four styles of magic are based on the four proper techniques for utilizing a fire extinguisher: pull, aim, squeeze and sweep.

Atomic power is energy made from elemental decay. Sounds a lot like dark magic.

Fake and gay.

Inheritance is not requirement for OOP.

Alan Kays principles of OOP: message passing, encapsulation and late-binding.

inheritance and polymorphism are heathen garbage and a corruption of the true paths of magic.

I tried doing something like this, basically explaining universal energy systems in terms of its state of matter. Solid chakra, liquid chakra, plasmic chakra, etc. Could never make it feel distinct or interesting enough to use though.

Where's that leave Spicy?

not a flavor

is fusion light magic then?

Why would anyone become a horse wizard? What’s the point?

On the one hand, you get wisdom and inner peace. On the other hand, you have to tell people you specialized in phlegm magic.

The four styles of magic are based on the four letters of LGBT.

>Why would anyone become a horse wizard? What's the point?

Well, horses can go places trains and automobiles can't and make their own fuel. Though I guess if you were a *car wizard* the power not to need gasoline would be pretty high up on the list.

Also I think in the spirit of fairness you should probably give horse wizards domain over motorcycles too.

>On the one hand, you get wisdom and inner peace. On the other hand, you have to tell people you specialized in phlegm magic.

Oddly enough in that context you are pronouncing the G, so it's not so bad. And even if it was, inner peace includes the power to not give a fuck.

The power to seduce women.

The power to seduce men.

The power to seduce the opposite sex.

The power to change your own or someone else's sex.

If you were in somebody's gay magical realm setting you could actually get some mileage out of the interplay there.

The forbidden art.

>be wizard specializing in gas manipulation
>asshole party members keep laughing and saying 'BRAAAAP' behind your back

That's science, you're mixing the two up again. Magic is controlling the forces of nature. Or power in exchange for your soul. Basically anything that's too whimsical or extraordinary to belong in our world.

The four styles of magic are based on the four food groups: greasy, sugary, salted, and ketchup.

But what about catsup?

The four styles of magic are based on the most important of the Human senses: Sight, Sound, Taste, and Touch

As a Smell Wizard I am greatly offended.

Fuck you, Smell is just Taste when focused. You're not a real class of magic.

I mean, if you're gonna play that game then all senses are just applied Touch.

Leave it to Smell Wizards to be the biggest stinkers.

Why would anyone want to be harder, faster, or stronger, when they can be better?

Maybe Better only enhances your own natural characteristics?

In that case it would be the most balanced, middle-of-the-road choice rather than the best.

>Smell is just Taste when focused

Huh, I never thought about it that way, now I cannot unfeel it

Yes.

Someone just realized they've been tasting asshole every time they smell a fart

The four styles of magic are based on fear, surprise, an almost fanatical devotion to the pope, nice red uniforms, and ... Shit, I'll come in again.

Can't say I was expecting that.

Schools of magic are based around and fueled by emotions. Rage, Fear, Sadness, Love, and Joy.

I'm sorry user, the answer we were looking for was "The four styles of magic are..."

Besides, you forgot Will.

...

does willpower really count as an emotion?

Actually, just lump Joy and Love into one school, and that brings it back down to four, problem solved.

No, but it does if you're DC.

And I'd rather just drop Sadness, to have an even balance of positive/negative emotions and because what would Sadness magic even look like?

Wouldn't Bi Wizards be able to seduce everyone?

>no fried

Of course not, that would be overpowered.

Bisexuals are already the metagamers of real-world sexuality.

sounds good to me. Here's what each school would have to offer.

Rage: damaging blasts and temporary self-buffs.

Fear: Controlling illusions, debuff magic, and charms. Popular among rogues

Joy: Buff effects, summoning familiars.

Love: Protection and healing effects, with a bit of controlling effects like charms.

The most powerful wizards will obviously mix these emotions together to create more powerful spells.

>Harder is density manipulation
>Better is manipulation of self
>Faster is kinesis
>Stronger is manipulation of growth

>with a bit of controlling effects like charms
I think it's too easy to turn Love Magic into Sex Magic. It's supposed to be fueled by the emotion, not just themed around it.

Maybe even instead make each one have a "good"/"bad" quality that especially good or evil users could exemplify and that regular morally grey people could dabble in either side of.

Courage/Rage
Awe/Fear
Joy/Greed
Love/Lust

I dunno, just spitballing.

I like that, how's this?
Rage vs Righteous Anger/Courage
Fear/Terror vs Awe/Wanderlust
Joy vs Addiction or Naivety
Love vs Lust

I never noticed you can't spell courage without "rage".

The four schools of magic are based on members of The Beatles. John, Paul, George, and Ringo.

>forgetting the best school of magic

Anyone who thinks Chemistry isn't whimsical hasn't spent enough time in an OChem lab.

Whimsical is not the word I would use. Maddening maybe.

You mean the forbidden school of magic?
The FIFTH Beatle?!

What about Yoko Ono?

when I was a young bb boy I used to think Justin bieber was one of the beatles

>The four styles of magic are based on manipulation of solids, liquids, gases, or plasmas

So... Earth, Eater, Wind, Fire?

>Eater
That's sounds like a creepy element

There are two secret, forbidden schools of magic.
Yoko Ono, and Mark David Chapman.

>John, Paul, George, and Ringo.
Air, Earth, Fire and Water

>Heart

HEART!

Heart is psionics.

The four words of power
>You're
Self manipulation and control. Often used primarily by the Monks of the Bat, who use it to hone their personal combat abilities
>A
A highly focused form of magic, used for things like scrying and illusions. The study of this school of magic was spearheaded by a being known as the Paradoxicler, a man who was drove insane from always knowing the perfect dates to commit crimes on
>Big
Growth and manipulation of the greater word. Notable users include the Cult of the Bane, a fanatical band who used their magic to increase their members to ludicrous size
>Guy
Persuasion and Charismatic manipulation, a deeply human form of magic. A notable user was the Mage Jester, who could arrive in a town with nothing and tear the town apart using it's own citizens

There has only ever been one who could master all four words of power. Some know him as the Centre of all magic. Some view him as Intellect personified. Yet others call him "the Agent of righteous chaos".
In the hall of mages, you can see his inscription and all of his known names carved into a stone wall by the entrance, depicting him with his captured enemies and next to what some believe is a great flying construct, and his words of power beneath him.
