Sorry, didn't mean to imply that I thought that. It's just my general opinion on magic. I like that in this world you're telling me about, untrained magic is dangerous, though, that does balance it out a little.

What's the scope of those illusions?
Can you name an example? I'd love to hear more.

I normally don't have characters that can fight at all - I prefer having people's strength be their mind or their charisma. Dread for example is so weak I like to joke that you can breathe at him and he'll fall over.

Well, he's the gamemaster character. I can link you to his profile, but it wouldn't tell you that much, I guess, I'm horrible at keeping it updated. He's also into the whole "illusion" thing - and generally anything which manipulates what people see, feel, and the rest of that.

Oh! Right. Silly me, I should have realised that. I still don't quite like the translation, though... but at least it's not something as cliché as "child of the sun" or suchlike. I had a character called Baratequaaj (a/k/a ArA) once, the translation of that is "silver water". Normally I take english names or names without a meaning, though, e.g. Dread, Rapture or Thennatyr. Anyway, I really like "Yabissa".

And of course, a little child trying to get something from her older brother wouldn't get it's hand chopped off.

That works
So I assume your character will be cautious using her thieving skills?

Same colours? Was it the math teacher that inspired you to the two different eye colours, or what did? (Yes, I refuse to cease being nosey!)

I'd have to wait six months! There's no way I'd survive that long.
