    Folk monsters!

    Would you mind looking at this thread I created to explain, and get help to develop, a magic system I'm currently making. Pretty much all the conflict in the series revolves around this magic system. I would like to have as many opinions and suggestions on it as possible. It's a quick summary of...

    Tricky Magic System I'm Working Out.

    It takes about 3/4 of a magic "soul" to enter a Soul Cavern.

    Hello!

    Here a thread I created where I'm trying to explain, and get help to develop further, a magic system I'm creating for a long series I've been creating. Most, if not all, conflict in the series revolves around the magic. Tricky Magic System I'm Working Out.

    Folk monsters!

    Sorry, I don't have a link. It was a short story I wrote for a creative writing class, which was saved on my school computer that gets wiped over the summer. I forgot to save the story. It essentially was a short story about following one of them in their daily life.

    Do you mind if I tell you the ending? I would really like an opinion on it, but in my group of writing friends it's pretty much taboo to even hint at your ending to others before you write the whole story.

    Tricky Magic System I'm Working Out.

    Oh, I forgot to talk about the extraction. This old magic was found on accident, using a common magic that is still around. How people are arrested in this world is that a person with two "souls" extracts the soul of the person guilty, putting the soul into some type of container. The result of...

    Tricky Magic System I'm Working Out.

    There is actually a debate I made within the world about which soul is which. They have found a way to enter another's Soul Cavern and return. From what they observed in a two "soul" person (because the only way to observe a Soul Cavern is for one two "souled" person to enter another) is that...

    Tricky Magic System I'm Working Out.

    Well, the story starts off with two people who are people who have two "souls." By the end, they become each other's antagonists, although they want the same things, it's just that they go about achieving it in ways that contradict each other. What they both want is peace between, mainly, people...

    For a funny short story I wrote, I made these creatures called Tea Gnomes. These creatures are kept inside a crate which is filled with buildings, similar to a city. Each Tea Gnome has a different color and pattern to their skin, indicating different tea flavors. Once they are bought, their...

    Tricky Magic System I'm Working Out.

    Hello, everyone! I've been developing a long series with almost all conflicts in the series coming from the magic system. This is a quick, and not really in-depth, description of the magic system so far. So, there are two types of people in this world: people who have two "souls", and people...
