The Derwydda Magic System is detailed
here.
|
|
NOTE: Practitioners of Derwydda (dur-WEETH-ah) are collectively called
Derwyddon (dur-WEE-thon) collectively, or Derwydd (DUR-weeth) singularly.
|
|
Derwydda is a form of Nature Magic that focuses on powerful Magics stemming from
a understanding of the Natural World, and channelling the very power of the Universe
itself.
|
|
Derwyddon are a type of Magic User skilled at working powerful Magics when given
the chance, but not quite as good in tense situations such as combat. An individual
Derwydd isn't particularly good in a combat situation, but given time and a Standing
Stone a Derwydd can work shockingly powerful Magic, and a clutch of Derwyddon working
together can shake the fundaments of the world.
|
|
Derwyddon are also good at preparing powerful Spell Effects on At Will Triggers
in relative safety, which they can later release for devastating results, which
somewhat compensates for the difficulities they suffer when attempting to cast Spell
Effects in combat.
