This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: BedrockBrendan;613833An intereting exercize is to watch a fantasy film or read a fantasy novel and figure out a way to emulate its magic specifically. I tried that with excaliber bout a year ago,just  watching it a bunch of times and pausing everytime merlin or morgana used magic. Obviously they dont have to contend with the balance issues rpgs do, but you can go in some very interesting directions doing this.

Cineflex's magic system was based on Excalibur, with a heavy focus on "repose" after casting spells.
