sorry i cant msg you (netflix jail) but @ your prev to smth you reblogged from me: OVARIAN CYSTS CURST FROM GOD??? WHAT????????
yeah someone left a weird tag on one of my posts so I went to their blog and i SHIT YOU NOT the first post on it was some essay length post about how their ovarian cysts were bc they harbored bad thoughts and that she didn't want to be medicated bc it was like giving up being a good person and men just want women medicated so we can be controlled and i just
i had no words.
it was the THIRD weird tag i'd gotten that day too, so i just kinda went 'yeah okay no freaks in my inbox anymore, if you're gonna be weird say that to me with ur blog'.
also! followers!!
if you have ovarian cysts, PLEASE GET THEM MEDICATED, or at least make sure you and your doctor know about them and track your symptoms!
they can hurt a lot and can result in a lot of hormonal issues and the loss of internal organs. My best friend had them unmedicated and she had to go to the ER to get an ovary removed bc it decided to literally fucking explode, and the ER is NOT cheap, neither is complications from an internal organ dying.
- does your wizard have a primary school? secondary school?
- how does their chosen schools affect their personality?
- what arcs (1-4) does your wizard take place in? are they the scion?
for yer little peoples...
!! sorry this took so long for me to get to! yesterday was a l o n g day and by the time i could use my computer for tumblr stuff, i was exhausted.
all answers under the cut!
oh good god this got longer than i thought it would
1) Does your wizard have a primary school? secondary school?
Nora's primary school is Storm. She doesn't have a declared secondary school, but she has dabbled in other schools over the years for certain utility spells.
Emma's primary is Life, and like her cousin Nora, aside from various utility spells she stays within her school as much as possible.
Star's main school is Death, and (before the events of my story) never felt the need to stray from it. Death is a pretty complex school, and between it and giving herself enough time to enjoy life, Star has had little time to invest into secondaries.
Savannah tries to shy away from 'primary' and 'secondary' schools, and tries to carry herself as a Fire-Ice wizard. However, even her own label betrays which school came first and which was second.
Iridian technically has no 'primary' school as she isn't old enough to be enrolled in Ravenwood, but she has quite the aptitude for Myth magic.
2) How does their chosen schools affect their personality?
Storm magic has brought out the best and the worst of Nora. The magic's highs lift Nora up and let her reach her fullest potential and vent out her restless energy in a productive way, but the lows weigh heavily on her. Fizzles are always frustrating, and a chain of bad luck can bring Nora's otherwise good mood crashing down. In short, Storm magic make's Nora's already extreme emotions even more so.
Life magic as it's taught in Ravenwood introduces a tension that Emma grapples with. She prefers to stay strong and solo, but the curriculum's emphasis on healing and cooperation and love make that a struggle. Emma prefers the theory behind Pigswick's 'Earth' magic, though it is technically false. From the Earth all things came, and to the Earth all shall return. Emma will stay strong until her voice gives out and she can no longer outrun her fate.
Death magic tends to temper a soul or inflame it. When Star first enrolled in Ravenwood, she was going through a bit of an emo phase. Over the years, Death magic has taught her that the end is inevitable, and that life is precious. Star learned to love life and to love living life. To be loud and unapologetic and unafraid. She brightened up over the years, straying from the dour hues of Death while still accepting the magic into her heart.
Fire magic lit up the quiet ambition within Savannah's soul. She isn't the strongest Pyromancer, but by G-d she will give it her all. After a year or two of learning pure Fire magic, Savannah still felt like there was more she could take on. Impatient and hoping to impress her older sisters, she took on Ice magic as well. All of her teachers recommend that she exercise patience and caution when trying to learn two opposing schools. (Professor Falmea knows from personal experience that a Pyromancer trying to learn Ice magic can be devastating). Savannah has grown more patient and diligent from the Ice magic, but a small part of Savannah is still a fiery and rebellious child. She's 13, G-d dang it! She's not a child! She knows what she's doing! She knows she can handle it! She has to! If she can't manage this magic, then she's a disappointment, and she cannot stand being a disappointment. Even now, a year into the story, while Savannah is trying to learn ONLY Ice magic, casting her initial school aside, the ambition of Fire burns within her.
Myth magic makes Iridian quite inquisitive and imaginative. Being only 5, she's always wondering about the great big world around her. Myth magic lets her see more of the universe, and that only inspires more questions. She doodles stories of what once happened or what is currently happening, and then she's inspired to draw out the world that the stories took place in, or the entire histories of the characters in the stories. She sees more than any can realize, and has more power than any can imagine a child like her having.
3) What arcs (1-4) does your wizard take place in? Are they the scion?
My story is post Arc 3, but broke off from canon before Arc 4's beginning. The worlds of Arc 4 exist, but the situations in which they're encountered are starkly different from canon.
Nora is the sole Scion, however each of my characters has the potential to be the Divine Paradox.
- Emma is a Life Wizard who chooses to stay solo and serious, a personality more befitting a Necromancer
- Star is a Death Wizard who loves life and being a social butterfly, a personality that fits a Theurge
- Savannah studies Fire and Ice. The opposing forces and personalities clash within her.
- Iridian is a child who has seen more than some adults. Plus, she is the direct opposite of her sister Nora on multiple counts.
Nora is a Diviner, Iridian is a Conjurer
Nora has lived the stories, the legends of Malistaire's grief and Morganthe's destruction and the Divine Paradox. Iridian has only written the stories out on paper.
Nora was an Earthen human who has forgotten her home and believes that she is Spiralian. Iridian is a Spiralian who never knew her home and so believes herself to be some sort of human like Nora.
(adding onto that, Nora is a human with fae wings. Iridian is a fae whose wings have not yet grown in)
