Magic Idea for HnH

[wildair]

So there is a skill named Hearth Magic as many of you may know. It sets up the game ready for magic, and tells the player that this game contains magic but later on there is no magical items in game. Some ideas I had was that there is 3 types of magic (combat, normal uses, and no effect magic). Combat magic is magic used in battle like fireball or something like debuffs. Normal uses magic is magic that is used outside of combat like lighting something on fire instantly, speed boost, and less wait time in actions. Also finally no effect magics, use them to brag and show off with your friends, and use them to confuse your foes, kinda like real life magic tricks but more cool. Some of these magics will take a lot to get and some will not. Don't yell at me if you think this post is stupid, I just like these ideas.

Every time this comes up...

So, here's how magic is going to work: There will be no magic.

There's room for magic in Haven, ancestral worship is already in for example, but I would like to see more. A expansion upon ancestral worship, pagan gods, idol worship, spirits... Fickle or downright capricious, a village numen-pool, animal sacrifice, blood altars, focus those dark and primal energies to improve crops or war fervor, huge trees littered with hanged victims, imbue items with runes learned only at great personal sacrifice (gotta hang yourself and survive, bro).



Fireballs? Eat a brick bathrobe hero.

You know what would be cool?
Being able to create Golems using a bunch of numen, a troll heart and stones.

No magic please.

Ancestral worship and hearth fires... are not necessarily magic but more akin to abstractions. A good example of an abstraction is crossroads. They represent village investment in actual roads but abstract it for playability. Would you really want to build a hard surface road and maintain it? People complain enough about farming think of its labor and time just to travel some place.
