[QUOTE="Jeff Wilder, post: 5482900, member: 5122"] Of what? (Serious question. I may have missed something.) All the "PCs" in HP are wizards. BTW, regarding an earlier comment, magic in HP does require wands (as far as I can tell, even the most skilled magickers need them), but it's not slow. Even a death curse is simply two words. Other factors can impact how quickly some wizards or witches cast spells -- or even "if," as doing so silently is semi-advanced -- but those factors aren't inherent in the magic itself. (Off on a bigger tangent, if I were doing a HP RPG, I'd make "being cool under fire" a [I]huge[/I] part of the magic system. It's definitely something that balances out other factors (like knowledge of spells or depth of emotion). Of course, I'd make "being cool under fire" a huge part of [I]any[/I] RPG that heavily uses tools of instant death, like, say, guns. Even CP2020's "Cool" attribute was weak sauce.) [/QUOTE]
