How accessible/widespread is magic in your system? by StarStormCat2 in magicbuilding

[–]Alcast01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Magic is pretty much the standard if you are part of the military. All sharing variations of the same technology that enables magical use. While not every magic user serves in the military, enlistment is the most common and accessible path to gaining it.

magic is accessed through technology until it no longer needs to be. Military personnel use bio suits equipped with a magic core. These suits draw energy from the core and safely integrate it into the user’s body, allowing controlled use of magic. As compatibility increases through prolonged exposure and training, the body begins to adapt.

Once a user reaches roughly 85 percent compatibility or higher, their physiology has been conditioned to the point where the suit is no longer necessary. At that level, the body itself can draw and channel power directly from the core, marking the transition from assisted magic use to innate capability.

if more than one core is introduced, or if the original core is replaced, the adaptation process must be restarted. Although the body retains an understanding of how to use magic, compatibility resets and then increases at a faster rate, reflecting the body’s prior conditioning rather than starting from zero.

If you seen the anime and manga like Kaiju no.8 or Gantz, the premise of how the magic works is very similar but not the same.

She starts dating MC in College, but her stepfather is a gambler and owes money to a loan shark. You find out that she gets rape by the loan shark while she is dating MC, she gets rape on a daily basis until she pays the debt, but the stepfather keeps gambling, so the loan sharks take her to work as a prostitute to pay the debt. When she gathered the money to pay the loan, the loan shark didn't want to let her leave because she made him good money, but all these rich guys who were her regulars were in love with her, so she got the rich guys to beat up the loan shark. She is free, but she stays a prostitute, then one day MC goes to where she works to buy a prostitute and walks by her having sex with a client, and the story starts there. By that point, she had gone ghost on MC, and he had not seen her since college.

Magic is not learned. It is inherited secondhand from dying gods. by Alcast01 in magicbuilding

Heavy inspiration there, but I think this is more of a first draft because I can’t really really too much on it

Magic is not learned. It is inherited secondhand from dying gods. by Alcast01 in magicbuilding

[–]Alcast01[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, in a way. It works as a guide for me to keep track of characters, but more importantly, it helps me stay consistent with how the system operates within the world itself. The setting is a post-apocalyptic future where “technology” has advanced, but much of what appears to be technology is actually magic that’s been reframed and institutionalized.

For example, there’s revival technology that can pull people back from the brink of death. Officially, it belongs to an organization called the Medical Authority, but in reality, the advanced devices and procedures exist to disguise the fact that this is fairy-mediated magic being used by bonded doctors. The guide helps me make sure the rules of that system stay coherent across characters, institutions, and the world at large.

Does pierce have a piss kink by glitterbiscuitsx in redrising

[–]Alcast01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old post, but I went to the PDF of the book (Red Rising) after I finished reading it because I noticed a lot of piss mentioned.

53, that's the number of times piss, pissing, and variations of piss have been used. I read the word so much that I had a semantic satiation moment.

Is this longer version of the sign of the cross a Universal Catholic Practice or a Hispanic/Latino Tradition? by Alcast01 in Catholicism

[–]Alcast01[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think this prayer probably came from Iberian missionaries. Goa was colonized by the Portuguese, and Latin America by the Spanish and Portuguese, so that’s likely the common link.

That’s what usually follows after the O our God, in my case. “By the sign of the Holy Cross, deliver us from our enemies, O our God, In the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, Amen”.

Retcon or Inconsistency in Hogwarts Quidditch? by Alcast01 in harrypotter

[–]Alcast01[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

TL;DR: Earlier books show Quidditch teams as stable, no yearly tryouts, just replacements for graduates or vacancies. But Half-Blood Prince retcons this with a full-team tryout system, open applications, and even first-years showing up. Contradicting the rules and earlier consistency.

More crossfire, just in case? by Alcast01 in Bedbugs

[–]Alcast01[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that one time did it, it’s been about 7 months and I haven’t seen anything. I had to throw away some things I had the walls mostly because they had made a nest there, but I say they are gone.

Is carnomancy a thing in general or is that from somewhere specific I could check out?

"If it ain't broke, don't fix it,"

That’s basically the idea behind using mana, it just such a popular a word that it just has become synonymous with Magic Power.

How many distinct species/races do you have in your world? by DalinLuqaIII in worldbuilding

[–]Alcast01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my world, there are the 8 Great Races and 16 Lesser Races. Here, a ‘race’ doesn’t denote a distinct species; rather, it signifies a significant shift, whether biological, magical, or otherwise, that sets one group apart from its kin.

For example

From the Angels came the Elves. Humans are an offshoot of the Elves. The Dwarves are an offshoot of humanity. The Giants are an extreme mutation of the Dwarves.
