I had a random thought on a magic system that I would like some input about.
What if every spell you ever learned could only be used once? You could cast spells that are similar, but never the same. If you try, it would just fizzle. For example, you could cast Fireball only once, so you had better save it for just the right time. You might be able to cast Fire-baseball or Fire-basketball, but only one fireball.
Similarly, what if everyone could cast one magic spell in his or her life? How would the world and our lives look different?
I would love to hear your thoughts.
