[QUOTE="Chaosmancer, post: 9320988, member: 6801228"] We aren't against it. We just think it is a little silly to have to state "MAGIC EXISTS" in the books for Dungeons and Dragons. I mean, seriously, we need to show, in a world where fantastical things are possible by normal people who read and understand the correct books, that it is also possible for them to achieve fantastical things by normal people with the correct physical training... in a game where Monks can run across lava due to their physical training. You keep acting like this is somehow a giant mystery. The monk text literally states that Ki is a magically energy found inside all living bodies. So here, right here, from the PHB "[I]This energy is an element of the magic that suffuses the multiverse—specifically, the element that flows through living bodies.[/I]" Are you alive in the DnD multiverse? Congratulations, you have magic running through your body. Explicitly stated in the PHB. Does the Fighter need to mention it too? Do we need every single class to open "As a living being, and likely a magical creature from mythology like an elf, in a magical world, you have magical potential energy inside you." Of course you are going to say yes, because once you accept that the explanation exists, your entire position crumples. [/QUOTE]
