Magic Operators?

An integral part of my world are the three divisions of the soul: Mind (thought), Heart (emotions) and Body (vitality). When mortals came to life, the Titans created the Low Gods to help mortals on their daily lives. They made the Immortals (Mind), seven immortal beings for each of the seven...

The idea is for the diary to be recorded at the end of the day or quickly after important moments (thanks for the link, just what I needed). The MC is a young man venturing into an unknown world, hoping to unlock some of it's mysteries in order to help his people when (if) he returns.

I'm working on a illustration project for college, the project is basically writing and illustrating a journal from a fictional adventurer who is exploring a world I've created. While my primary focus are the illustrations, it would be a shame to neglect the writing part. I'm particularly...

A possible explanation is the area suffers from seasonal droughts, so the dam is there to provide water when it is needed

Ok, I've been working and refining the system for a while. The universe is divided in three (known) planes, each ruling itself and those below it. These are: The Titanic Plane, The Soul Plane and The Elemental Plane. The Titanic Plane is ruled by the forces of Light (light, time and order) and...

My setting is in a tidally locked world, one side is in perpetual light and the other in perpetual darkness My races have evolved based on the land they live on, whether it is in the dayside, the twilight belt or the nightside. Sundar: The sundar are the equivalent of humans with the exception...

What kind of magic would you expect to see in a world that is tidally locked to its sun? (this means one side is perpetually facing the sun). The sun facing side (or subsolar pole) is an impenetrable desert, while the night side (antisolar pole) is a frozen wasteland, The middle zone...

It seems I am ~~cosmic~~ I was thinking of making a similar system but never did, guess you reminded me of that one

Everyone in my setting is capable of using magic so I lack a term for magic users, but I use the term Master for someone who is recognized by his ability to use magic the same way one would call someone who's very good at martial arts a Master

Depends on the definition of immortality that you use, if you mean immortal as in 'will outlast the universe', then no being in my setting is immortal. Titans are the closest thing to immortal that there is, they came into existence by splitting the essence of the Void into two parts (Light and...

For sentient beings I use the term Mortals, but there are a few categories depending on the characteristics of the soul of the creature: Immortals: Think, Feel and live but cannot die Mortals: Think, Feel and live Beasts: Feel and live Golems: Think and live Plants: Live Spirits: Think and feel...

IMO The most important things are: How life came to be How sentient beings came to be What powers natural phenomena What was before the sentient creatures What will come after the sentient creatures My creation myth is like this: Out of the void, the nothingness, emptiness, two all mighty...

Open rainforest? Tropical woodlands? Low rainforest? Maybe the more "correct" Tropical savanna (Savanna - Wikipedia)? This may help you for future reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecozone, just do the typical wiki walk and you will find what you are looking for

Already have it, but it's not under physical elements, it's what I called in the first post as Life
