// You wanted to know what the magic rules were. I do put thought into this RP. Don't assume I don't. It's not exactly a wall of text, either. I kept it as simple and brief as I could manage.
// And if you're just going to shit on the idea of magic in general (which I assume you will), then don't. I won't deal with anti-fantasy bullshit. People like it. People use it. If you don't like it, that's fine. You don't have to. But that doesn't mean you have to be overly critical of everything about it.

Quote:I'm not sure if Umbra has a way to fit the (probably numerous) minor discrepencies people have into the system, if the system is flawed, or if this is outside of the system.
If it is the most latter of the three, I would suggest another section of magic: Primal, or as I've referred to it in the past, Reality Warping, wherein the magic is less something that can be controlled, and more something that just happens, and at the same time does not follow the exact rules of the more mainstream magics. This is the stuff of the things between worlds, of things beyond comprehension, of wild nature, and, occasionally, of very lucky (or very unlucky depending on how long they survive these powers) mages.))
// I considered that problem when I was designing the magic classification system, so I tried my best to make sure that anything anyone could come up with would be able to fit in one of the four categories. Your suggestion doesn't sound bad, though. It'd open up some interesting possibilities.
// Another name possibility off the top of my head: Weaver (as it sounds like they sort of work with the thread of a fundamental aspect of life or existence, such as chronomancy or, well, the manipulation of reality)
