So this idea came to mind when a conflict arose because of my magic and another players magic. A while back I created a magic I called "Phoenix Fire" and I rooted it's abilities, powers and origin in the site's resident superboss The Phoenix. It stirred some people up and to get it approved I had to make a super awesome thread about how I got it.
Some time later....
PhoenixRises101 wants to make a magic also based off of The Phoenix. >.> which is causing some problems because the lore behind our magics clash. We are still in the process of trying to make it work.
This suggestion isn't about finding a solution to that problem. It's an idea I got thinking about how to prevent future situations like this and to encourage members to create characters more steeped into pre-existing lore.
Thanks to a growing number of high ranked jobs and the dungeon system there are now a large number of powerful boss enemies. I think a system should be in place to allow for easy "Lore Magics" as I have come to call them. Magics based off of an existing site boss.
Rules for Lore Magic:
-Each Boss can only have on inheritor of their magic. So a positions thread like the one for slayers and gold keys will be needed.
-To use a Lore Magic you must create a thread explaining how you inherited the power. Like mine https://www.fairytail-rp.com/t7669-bargaining-with-the-beast
-The Boss is counted as your mentor.
-The Boss must exist before you start making your magic to be considered Lore Magic.
-The magic actually has to resemble the bosses magic, the user is allowed to make alterations and take artistic freedoms but at the core the magic must be the same.
I recommend just a handful of bosses be permitted for lore magic, or else we will have to make a lore magic slot for every job ever. My suggestions are...
-The Phoenix: From Phoenix Fire. Phoenix themed magic. Naturally taken by myself
-The Storm King: From The Storm King. Disaster themed magic.
-Saphagne the Chaos Dragon: From the Beacons. Chaos themed dragon slayer magic.
-Master Vampire: From Twilight's Nest. Vampire themed magic.
-The Titan: From Titan Slayer. Strength themed magic.
-Ryu Charizard: From Ninja Wars. Charizard themed magic?
-Jinn: Floor 85 of the dungeons. Arabian Nights themed magic.
-Zagan: Floor 99. Dimensional Rift themed magic.
-Asaroth: Floor 76. Sloth themed magic.
-Fortuna: Floor 51. Gambling Themed magic.
-Mercury: Floor 71. Speed Biker themed magic.
Dungeon based Lore Magics could be potential rewards from the dungeon system.
Thoughts? Imput?
