I’m liking this so far

Well, depending on the witches magic type, how long they can use their magic, how powerful their magic is, etc. there are wisps that appear and help their witches with things.

But the thing is, they don't really have a type. They can specialize of course, but they were born with no powers, and therefore no type.
Would we have them specialize on an element/practice in that case?

Yeah, sorry, I was thinking they were born with different types of magic or they exceeded in different types.

Wasn't the thing that they practiced witchcraft as a way to be magical?
Maybe they have something in the blood that helps but IDK.

Probably, sorry, I'm just really tired at the moment.

Hey, what are we doing exactly, like, are we making more/ new characters, geography, developing the characters, that kind of stuff =P

Right now we are nailing down the magic system it seems.
After that we could do some geography and work on the enviroment.

Yeet, or geography, we already know that we have a northern region…

okie dokie

As I said, working on geography is good. And yeah the siblings are from the northen region, so that makes a southern region too.

Mhm… Maybe we have the land sorted into different elements?
The northern could be water and ice, southern could be fire, western could be earth, eastern could be wind, and we could have a center land for all around magic!

What if we do it so that southern is a desert and further out it's a volcano wasteland (with lava rivers with magmaids?)
Having charcters travel through a desert n limited rescources is really good to establish them all and their relationships.

OoOh!
I'm going to go on the group account and write this shit down.

Yeah do that that's important info

Okay!
I'll try and get it down now!

This is Lex, I'm just going to put southern region and such and we can decide on names later.

Yeah, under locations I guess since it's not a premium one

Yup, that's what I'm doing rn.

This is what I've written so far.

Yeah that seems good.
And also obsidian cons are a pretty good currency (Maybe we could have the witches attempt to forge obsidian coins while there because they are low on supplies.)

Oh!
Thanks!

That's really cool! So does that mean that the witches are a traveling group 'cause I thought that they were stationary?

So western is kind of a gigantic forest then?
