Credos Witch and Witch Hunter

[darkyorik]

Hello! The game does not have enough magic. We needed it, man!

Jorb need to add 2 credos: Witch and Witch Hunter.

For these professions, you will need to focus on Lore. (Lore is a general measure of Wisdom, relevant for "magical" or otherwise involved tasks.)
That will be epic!

We dont need magic.

Why? HnH is phantasy game. Trolls, gigantic snails, dryads, nidbane are already in the game. The next step is magic

We really don't need magic. At all. This fantasy setting is steeped in a different kind of magic than that popularized by Tolkien, instead leaning on an older, more natural magic. Look at your hearth magic, THAT'S what magic is here.

this is not salem

we have cool hearth magic, no need for witches.

Did you read what Jorb wrote?

Witch

"They happily quaff my potions down -- like they were honey-wine -- for years, but all it takes for the stakes to be raised -- if you know what I mean -- is one old cow falling ill. I mean... it's not like they really needed the milk anyway."

Seid magic allows the witch to throw little curses on cows, querns, wells, and various household objects, to feed both herself and her magic. Together with other witches in a coven, she can perform rituals to curse entire tracts of land.

Witch Hunter

"If she floats, she's a witch, and should be put to the stake and burned to a cinder. If she drowns, then accept this beautiful, wonderfully scented, flower -- would you just look at the color! -- as my way of saying that I'm really, really sorry! Enjoy your day!"

The Witch Hunter specializes in locating and taking out witches -- or other practitioners of magic -- and witches' covens. By burning the black sorceresses at the stake, he fuels his martial skills.

I do not see Tolkien's magic in that. It is mystical curses with runes and potions.

We can call it differently - Shamans, Druids.
What bad do you see in Salem? It was good... once upon a time.

What bad do you see in Salem?

Haven is not salem, haven should not have things from salem. Witches are one of the main things in salem.

[MagicManICT]

There is a different level of magic in most fantasy settings. Some are very magic heavy, others have almost none, and then there are a few that have none at all, and only qualify as fantasy due to the odd world settings. We could use some more magic, sure, but I think it needs to fit in with the current concepts, which are low fantasy.

Jorb has definitely expressed interest in furthering credos towards adding in some sort of Witch or witchcraft. It was in the very first thread about credos he posted.

It was cool before Salem.
