GrizzlyEatsKids:
Well, I'm not sure if classes really fit what we're thinking about doing with magic. Seeing as everyone has their own, unique for of magic, classes may not make that much sense. Everyone, for the most part, will have one main magic, which means that classes that help you to learn other types of magic pointless, as the only way to get other magic is to steal it with the previously mentioned item. I also don't think that magic will be able to summon living creatures.

I also have a few questions and things to talk about:

1. Do you think that there should be a specific posting format? Should everyone have to follow the same guidelines when making a post? For example, say I would make everyone put their character's name at the top of the post, bold, underlined, and italicized, make people post in a paragraph form, but skip a line when putting dialogue, which must be on a line by itself. This could make things easier to follow, but I don't know if it would take away any of the fun. Or, on the other hand, we could keep it like RP's normally do, and your post can look like whatever you wish. It was just a sudden thought I had, and would like opinions.

2. What do you all feel that the character limit should be? Should there even be a limit? Should people only be allowed to have one character, or rather be allowed to have up to a certain amount, like 3 or 4, for example, like most RP's do? I have my own opinion on this, but I want to hear everyone else's first.

3. What about weapons? Should characters be allowed to wield their own weapon that they can infuse with magic, or should they be more restricted to use mainly magic? As a side note, players will use things like guns for some points in the RP, but I'm talking about character specific weapons, such as swords, hammers, bows, etc.

4. Lastly, what about the tournament that was briefly mentioned? Would you rather fight against the other RP'ers and their characters, or a group of NPCs, for say, a pack mutated animals (just an example)?

I'd appreciate all of your thoughts on these things, and, as always, feel free to give any other suggestions or ideas you may have, related to these things or not.

The-Blades-slave:
1. No. I like to think my posts were organized enough, and I wrote them in an actual story format. Looked more official to me. Keep it the way it was.

2. As much as they can handle, add some kind of test to make sure.

3. Allow the weapons. It would add more of a variety to a fight, and at some points, cause things to get up close and personal.

4. I don't give a damn, but quote the Hunger Games one more time and I won't speak to you again.

GrizzlyEatsKids:
Personally, I agree with most of those, and, lol, I don't remember quoting the Hunger Games, at least not intentionally. Additionally, I just thought I'd  mention that while this RP will stress for fun, it will also push for quality. Keep the opinions on the four points coming.

Humen:
On the first one  I'd say yes buts that personal because my looked different each time I posted one but that as probably because I was going form my phone.

For the second once again personally i wouldn't want to use more than 2 cause imagine if everyone was using 2 or 3 or however many they could handle stories would get to confusing to follow.

The last two i can put an actual input too for weapons i don't think magic users should use them seems like your giving them to much. Now if the magic users are ever in as situation where they cant use their magic then they definitely need a weapon and if magic users did get weapons it probably use as an amplifier or negator for specific magic like a conducting rod for lighting magic or a shard of glass in the center of a shield to amplify repel light/laser like magic

But for the last one i still think a gladiator type fight would be great cause for one you'd probably be fighting NPCs and mutated animals it also be one of the times where you couldn't use magic and have to use a weapon. Cause if you could use your magic you'd probably use it to escape by breaking a hole in the wall.

Also to the summoning animals remark true you probably cant summon animals but the genes could allow you to excrete a pheromone to attract mutated animals and have them fight for them. So its basically the same thing but the animal would be random unless the character kept one as a pet

The-Blades-slave:
1. Like you said, specific to you.

2. Stories not that hard if the person does it right, ask Cortex. Gms control a thousand.

3. Everyone will be a wizard, really, so it wouldn't be OP. Realistically, it would make sense for them to carry a weapon.

4. If magic has been around that long, they most likely have ways to build to prevent, otherwise someone could just go blow up their capital.
