[QUOTE="Amphimir Míriel, post: 4786931, member: 55933"] You hit the nail right in the head here Cirno (and God knows we don't agree very often) I remember that Rolemaster used to offer the following explanation (paraphrased from what I remember, bear with me): Arcane is magic distilled from the universe Divine is magic channeled from the deities Psionics is magic squeezed out of your own being In D&D 4E you could extrapolate that to say that Primal is magic channeled from the living things in the world and Martial... ... ...Martial is magic channeled from your own badassery? :hmm: ;) Well, to be fair, in my group we find it very entertaining when, while describing the effect of the power used, the character shouts the name of the power*. "Rain! Of! Blooooows! Swosh! swish! Snicker-snack!" Don't know if this has Naruto-fied our D&D experience, but it's a lot of fun *With encounter and daily powers only, by preference Agreed, lets send an email to WotC Here I disagree... it is quite simple to add a "scroll with a secret technique that imbues your fists with lightning and crumbles after reading" to the treasure parcels [/QUOTE]
