lamoyja has given us permission to use the gem hammer. Whatever we decide to make of magic, this surely could help make it interesting and unique.

Some things I was thinking of. The gras magic sounds like it could be interesting...maybe have the ability to use the plants around you to form a dome of hardened leaves and branches to make a sleeping "tent". You could create walls of vines or leaves to block attacks too.
For the instrumental magic you could gather wood, metal, clay..whatever building materials you feel like and use the to construct different things (strength of them would depend on the material used). Things like animated golems and other constructs to magical traps that once set up could be triggered either by the user or by an enemy triggering it by walking near it. Just some things I had in my head...feel free to use them, change them, combine them with whatever you come up with. :goodjob:

Nice ideas there.
I suggest reading RIFTS: Wormwood you can get some nice ideas for "Earth" magic there. :yes:

I'll try to search for it. I may not integrate all good ideas though (come on, leave some for those people NOT doing Akavir ). I am giving preference for those which an ... "Akaviri flavor" and those that can fit into the existing history.
BTW, added "Corpse Herding" on the same page. (This is adapted from some stories from some province in China... not sure geographically where though)
I read emails regularly like ... once per month.

Very impressed with your feel for the presetation and philosophy of the magic - always wanted to see an Akavir mod... guess I will get my wish
One thing I am thinking is that woven into this somewhere has to be the method by which a Cat King person turns himself into a Cat-Dragon... scaary.
Because loyalty is not to be spoken of and honour is to be endured. Whilst courage is to be survived. These virtues belong to silence.
