Hello!

Ok so I think she may be a tad to powerful.

What I'm thinking is if you combine Sensus Fragilitatis and Acceleratio Chaos into one spell and then add on some sort of backlash like with the fair foul spell you've said it won't last over an hour.

Also the main profile image looks a little young but some of the ones you've added in the spoiler look older so could I ask you to change the main image to one of those? like this one for example

I actually think she's more than just "A tad too powerful"...

Luck manipulation by itself is already an extremely powerful magic (Just look at Marvel's Scarlet Witch from the original comic / cartoon or Yuuragi-sou no Yuna-san's Nakai)

I think there is a need to reduce the spell numbers and power. I think the best possible drawback of her magic would be somwthing like Nakai-san: Luck would bring Unluck and vice versa, the greater luck happening, the greater unluck would happen afterward.

There is also the swordmanship skill... C-rank don't usually able to fight if at all and it isn't matter of "doesn't like" or "won't". They are simply incapable of it for one reason or another, whether it's mental or physical disabilities.

I would definitely be interested in playing a mage from a different guild, I have an idea for his magic already but I am curious on rather you'd allow Eye Magic?

I agree power over luck falls to frobidden/lost magic category and is very potent. More so if there is taboo or just law when using said magic; bring happiness causes misfortune. A skilled user can direct where misfortune happens but it's not accurate as it works based on 'higher judgement' by whatever agency or force which oversees matters of luck, unluck and fate. Example you boost someone's luck so they survive and live from situation where they would had definately died without luck factor (there was nothing else or not even chance to survive), it will lead to someone's death in near future and it can be random. But overall it would follow laws of karma; meaning whoever dies is a person who magic user cares about. Or worst case magic user themselves dies as a cost of using such luck.

Overall interesting concept but hard to balance out properly without making luck power work like monkey's paw. Unless there is caveat instead one big hit the karma can be paid with multiple instances of bad luck and you cannot boost anyone's luck until 'debt is paid full'. Or learn technique how transfer the debt onto someone else (simply curse them) but laying down curses is complex and need done in short time window (and could be difficult but possible to do, like needing blood/hair sample from someone and build a wax doll of person's likeness to 'hex' them and keep doll intact until debt is paid).

Could you expand on this please? It kinda depends what you want to do with it

Thanks for the feedback. I was planning to make this luck based magic work in a very subtle manner. This magic wouldn't alter crucial, life-death situations. It would be more like some small coincidences that could make life easier/hard. Think about leaving home on a sunny day and, when suddenly starts to rain, you happen to find an umbrella.

But reading your feedback made me realize that I would depend a lot from the players whose characters I choose to infuse with good/bad luck. I think it's better to come up with another concept, entirely.

So for my character's magic I assume it's OK to have her books be able to float nearby? Like grimoire's from Black Clover. xD

I love the idea of rune magic and i was wondering if i would be allowed to use it, mainly focusing on Dark Écriture. I know that such things can be overpowered as the only restriction on rune magic is really the time to set the runes. so i wanted to ask before writing up a character.

Umm... as far as BDSM is concerned... we're in the Light section of the forum though? So... unless it's consensual BDSM, it won't happen... I think?

TheOneWhoWatches

MelisaArtemis

I'm not saying that it CAN'T happen, it just have to be consensual ;)

TheOneWhoWatches

Are you guys looking for anymore players to join? I have been watching Fairy Tail recently and was feeling inspired. I read some where you guys are and I know you're involved in a Colosseum SL at the moment. If I am allowed to join, I was thinking that my character could just be in the audience watching the fights. It could lead to them to become interested in the guild.

Hello!

That would actually be perfect! The guys are on one on one fights and one of the characters has tossed a coin to find an impartial judge of sorts. I was going to do an NPC post but if you want to jump on that with a character that would be awesome.
