Message: <blockquote data-quote="Angcuru" data-source="post: 1931957" data-attributes="member: 10948">Good idea.A+B) The gods in this universe, I.E. the Creator Fragments exist simultaneously on the Spirit and Physical planes, as do all living things.  However, unlike living beings, they are conscious on both.  They are tangible, and physically appear as the ideal of the race they represent.  Their position within the society of the race they represent varies between races.  In some, they act as theocratic rulers.  In others they control the religious sect of the societies, while there is a mortal ruler of the race.  There are many, many variations, in that it seems that each god's station among their race is diffferent from any other.C+D) The four core elements exist as they do in our world. I.E. primarily as an archaic intellectual concept.  There are only two planes of existance, the Spiritual and the Physical.  The spiritual plane of existance is, for all intents and purposes, a parallel existance directly connected to and containing the souls, spirits, and life energy of the Physical world.  Without the Spiritual world, there could be no life, and without the Physical world, the spiritual world would have no purpose, and would eventually decay.  E) Magic is simply an additional rule of physics.  As each aspect of physics affects the other, so do they affect magic and vice versa.  They complement and support one another.  Magic does not alter other physical laws, it uses them, and in doing do, enforces them.  With the presence of magic, some laws change.  I.E. Conservatoin of matter.  With the existence of Creation magic, matter can be added to the world, but it cannot be destroyed.  It can only be altered.  For example, if a Change magic user were to use a Fireball spell.  The magic would use the laws of intertia, friction, and such to acccelerate a given chunk of matter be it air, rock, etc. within a confined space to its temperature of combustion, compressing it and buiding up pressure.  This is then released towards a given target, and contained pressure and combustion is released, in turn producing a big explosion of fire.A heal spell would alter the subjects metabolism, rapidly speeding up the healing process so that a wounded area is rapidly repaired by the body.  However, this would require that if the subject did not have stored energy I.E. food/fat to be metabolized, then the spell would feel off the energy which would be siphoned from the caster.And so on.No offense, Ferret, but I am having difficulty understanding your last post.  Are you commenting that it seems more sensible that the change that can be inflicted by many fragments is the same as can be inflicted by one whole Change?  That may be so, but each fragment still retains some of the drive Change had in his initial plan.  They want, need to try and become whole again, whether or not they can recombine into the God-Form of Change.  They can become whole, but as the energy that bound Change together has been released into the world and not contained, if the fragments were to become whole, they would simply split once again if the whole were not otherwise 'destroyed'.</blockquote>
