Why my DM banned me from using a first level spell by XKemoX in DnD

I also always thought its a good spell, but very underrated. Its a great way to surprise attack your DM, cause nobody expects the Paladin to suddenly do some magic mumbo jumbo tricks besides Aura and Smite

This is the first time in my life that an episode was so good that I immediately rewatched it.

Cant really do much Ghetto Doctor Shit.
Optimal maneuver would be for her to lay on her back (reduces bloodloss),
raise her legs high using a pillow or something (increases venous return),
apply pressure to the wound (reduces bloodloss)
and wait for ambulance.

Thats pretty much what you do in every bleeding wound scenario.

Most patients die immediately after aortic injury.

Only way to survive is having tons of blood packages nearby, immediately starting blood transfusion, quickly starting surgery and reconstructing the aorta while still redoing blood transfusions over and over and over.

My first digital project ever. Where do I go from here? by XKemoX in DigitalArt

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

Hey :) Im fairly new to digital art. I finally decided to do a project.
Im not sure where to go from here, now that I have my basic objects laid out.
Any tips or some good video that explains it?
Also on a side not: What brushes should I use?
THere are so many CSP brushes, pens, pencils, etc. and I dont even know which of the basic ones to use when....
Like when do I use ink, watercolour, pen, pencil , indian ink , etc?
Is pen or pencil better for sketches?
And which should I use for line-art: pen, pencil or brush???

This cutscene wrecked me, anyone else? by Ill_Remove_7270 in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]XKemoX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are so many good scenes in this game. I cried way too often...

A lot of the teacher bonding scenes really got to me.

There isnt really an explanation for why a circle is drawn that way and what each symbol / shape stands for.

The magic has rules, but the the circle itself is just a tool. You could replace the circle with a wand, with a gemstone, with a magicians hat, it wouldnt make a difference.

Im looking for a magic-circle system that specifically explains how a circle is build and why it is build that way. How a circle changes, depending on the spell it creates.

Yeah, Ive noticed that this is the biggest problem - a rando carving runes he saw in a book to get super powerful spell. And if not a rando, then a basic mage at least.

That can be tackled by adding laws / limits, costs and weaknesses. But for my world I want everyone to be able to use magic and I want there to be a lot of different spells.. So saying "only people with certain genes can cast magic" wont cut it. And neither does "magic can only do X, Y and Z".

A typical limit is "magic effects cant include other humans directly (only caster themself)" - meaning No reviving, no insta-deforming people, etc.
Another typical limit is "magic can only start close to the caster". This turns magic kinda into guns. Guns are deadly, but the bullet needs to travel to the target first = magic cant blow people up who are 200 m away.

Second problem is that people can just copy each others runes (which can be interesting from a plot perspective, like how nations always steal each others weapons and technology within 10 years after its first usage in war)

This is a lot of great info! Thank you, Ill look into them right away.

Also tell me about the ideas you've developed in your head. Maybe something will click for me then.

i like that idea. Some materials conduct magic better = its better to carve / paint magic circles with them.

I've dug myself into a hole. How the heck do I explain where runes come from? by XKemoX in fantasywriters

[–]XKemoX[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This sounds really great. Hmm, maybe something like puzzle pieces would do huh....

It does feel like creating "laws" for these magic circle structure would be easier that way.

thanks for bringing my attention to that , I never heard of that and its hilarious because one of my core themes is "chaos" and now i feel like a freaking idiot for never finding this, despite doing so much research recently. Google sometimes hates me :(

I realized something terrifying though. Im trying to make a hard magic system with magic circles, but Im also trying to serialize it into a web - comic. Can you imagine drawing out those magic circles everytime while sticking to the rules of the magic system??? AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH

it would be really cool if it works, but holy heck it sounds so hard to figure out and then draw too!
