Magic

Primary Magic: Card Magic
Secondary Magic:
Caster or Holder: Holder
Description: Card magic allows the user to activate magical cards from a deck that generate certain effects once magical energy is channeled through them. Each card has a different ability that it represents, usually printed in the form of a single word from the draconic language on the faces of the cards. Only the user of this magic and dragonslayers (or dragons) in general can actually read these words, giving dragonslayers a bit more time to react. Each spell slot allows for a certain number of cards, and the cards can be combined to create numerous different effects (e.g. 'force' and 'missile' would create a force missile, 'fire' and 'ball' would create a fireball), the amount of cards that can be combined being dependent on the user's rank. The cards do not have to be combined, and the words that represent them can be more loosely interpreted by the mage that channels their magic through the cards, so if the card represented 'fire', it could be used to create fire on it's own, but if combined with another card it could actually fire something, or even make a person feel as though they've been fired; though this 'loose interpretation' can only be done within the word's common uses. The cards created with each spell slot must be similar in concept.

# Cards that can be stacked per rank:

Strengths:

• Extreme versatility in combat, on the field, or just in day to day life.
  
• To render the magic useless, one would have to break all of the cards in the deck. (The 'good ones', aka the ones given by spell slots).
  
• Each individual card has it's own cooldown. (using one card from a spell slot won't render the entire slot useless, just send that one card into the spell slot's cooldown)
  

Weaknesses:

• If cards are broken, they cannot be used again until the next thread.
  
• User must be holding the cards (or have just tossed them into the air for flare or something) to do anything with them.
  
• If any damaging spell that is the user's rank or higher that would destroy a card hits one, the card will, in fact, break.
  
• The user has to either sort the deck in order of what they will want ahead of time, or actually search the deck to find the correct cards to use.
  

Abilities/Powers:

• Random Cards: The user can draw any number of cards with very basic, miscellaneous effects (non-combat, cannot be combined with any actual spell cards), such as creating a marble, or sweeping up a room, without them needing to be actually listed in their spells. This can also be used to create food for slayers (such as fire specifically meant to be eaten by a slayer and nothing else).
  
• Deck Stacking: The mage, as long as they've handled the deck of cards (any deck of cards) without it being shuffled again after they handle it, can stack the cards entirely in their favor, or in anyone's favor, every time. She can also perform elaborate, almost impossible seeming card tricks.
  
• Draconic Reading: The mage can read the arcane language called 'Draconic'; it is the language of the dragons. The mage always has a general idea of what the words will do if they read them out loud, due to this magic relying on that level of comprehension.
  
• Fortune Telling: Cards are very often linked with 'fortune telling', so being a cards magic user, the mage can tell fortunes using tarot cards, or even standard playing cards.
  
• Damaging Cards: Allows the user to throw cards (any cards) and do damage with them as if the user had actually delivered a punch.

Oh, sorry! I really only copy/pasted the template, and I guess I misread it... Oh well, that part's fixed now.
