Animus Magic - Tumblr Posts
Sunny knew there was always something off about her, something that made the other dragonets apart of the prophecy avoid her as much as they could, make for one exception though, Starflight. He was the nightwing of the prophecy, born at the same time as her, under the full three moons he hatched, just like her. But he wasn't like her, not totally.
She remembered nothing from her days in the mountain, it all flew by quick for her as she spent her days playing with the toys the guardians gave her and reading old scrolls. But there was a specific night she remembers.
She was told to go to bed early, she tried, but she kept hearing mumbles of fear and anxious voices, drawing her out of the sleeping cave and into the library, hiding in the shadows she heard them talking about something called "Animus magic" and saying that it was a powerful and strong ability, one of mass destruction, to others and yourself...Guardian Dune had growled out something about Sunny having the ability. She noticed that the other dragonets shivered with fear, she didn't want to be feared.
Yet here she was, standing in front of the Great legend Darkstalker, her body frozen with shock and fear. "Sunny...you could be the strongest dragon ever with my guide, you could show everyone how wrong they were when they thought you'd never hurt them, that you were harmless." He had hissed with a cunning smile and a glint of bloodlust in his eyes.
"I can teach you how to be strong."
Making your characters insanely OP is good for your soul sometimes. Just juice em up. Just crank the dial. Make them absolutely batshit terrifyingly good at what they do
Animus magic
"The first dragons of Pyrrhia used their magic to feed their families and protect themselves, they lived well and without rules, but because of this over time the magic disappeared along with the dragons so it returned to the tribes and now all the tribes can use magic with laws that animus and help them"
(This is just a headcanon of animus magic, don't take it too seriously it's just something I liked)
My headcanon about animus magic is no big deal
This curved line with pastel colors represents animus magic, for the tribes the color of the magic would be soft colors as if it reflected the soul of the dragon
those stripes on the hand are animus track stripes, for them the animus has pastel colored stripes on the face, chest and hand
The reason is that each part represents something, the face represents the vision of magic in this case wisdom, the specific chest above the heart means the soul, the physical form of magic within the dragon and the hands which is the greatest concentration of magic that Uses to create and enchant objects
Very vibrant colors that don't match well and dark spots represent the corruption of the soul, when the soul turns into something bad it contaminates the magic and so the dragon's body is full of these not-so-smooth spots and stripes that show that his soul is now it's pure evil
it's not that much since it's more about the vision of magic for the tribes and the supposed colors of it, if you liked it I'm happy
Well, this year was definitely the worst. I tried to create some holiday mood but it didn't help very much. Especially after today's attack. So there is Frostbite and her gift of light (quite interesting that I choose this idea). Can't remember any description of her. But it was fun, played with effects a little bit. I hope everyone gets wat they deserved in next year. Understand these words in any way you want. Мабуть, за мене вже усе сказано, але в такий час зайвих слів немає. Бажаю вам усім сил, здоров'я, щастя і щоб це все скоріше скінчилося. Ми переможемо, попереду ще багато роботи, але ми з усім справимося. Хай кожна роснява тварюка забереться геть з нашої землі туди, звідки вона припхалася. Можна, звичайно, одразу до пекла, їм там саме місце.
So, one moment people started to talk about religious woftubers. Then I remembered smth and opened my old sketchbook... I think I opened the Pandora`s box
Animus magic thoughts
Ouhhh my first real post methinks
Been thinking a lot about Animus magic and how it could work in wings of fire and mayhaps how I have built up a system that would sort of fix the main magic issues in the main series
Animus magic isn't, an all powerful all spell casting magic, it instead has different levels of magic. Most Animus dragons can do some limited magic- like, say, make something similar to orcas statue, or turtles bowl. Some dragons are more powerful, and can create things like a whole palace, or enchant someone to be an entirely different dragon. Kind of a sliding scale, still not fully sure on exactly how powerful certain things are, but the general gist is that most Animus dragons cannot do crazy things. It's the reason why enchanted objects just have one use, an Animus dragon cannot just make something that will, for example, protect the queen from any danger and make her invincible. They'd only be able to possibly, protect her from assassination attempts, or natural disasters, or something like that. A bit of their soul, and a lot of energy that takes a while to recover from, is taken from them every time they cast huge spells.
Then, there's true Animus dragons. These are the ones that can truly do any sort of spell, but many don't simply because they don't know that they can, and everything they've heard about Animus magic is that you have to be specific and you can only do one thing whatever. These Animus dragons are WAY rarer than regular Animus dragons, like, one every few hundred years rare.
In the sort of world building au thingy I've been building up, most Animus dragons are regular Animus dragons. Stonemover is turning to stone because he pushed himself too far with the tunnels, Arctic's soul was visibly rotting from using too much magic and constantly wearing himself out, etc etc. The only two true Animus dragons in the series were the first Jerboa, Darkstalker, and Turtle. That's why Arctic also wasn't able to get Darkstalker "under control", Darkstalker's magic was so much stronger than his own. It's why the tribe fled, they'd never seen magic that could be cast so easily with so little effort.
Turtle is a true Animus, he made his sister an Animus, and he was the only one able to sort of "outdo", in a way, Darkstalkers magic. I imagine in the au thingy, it's also why he won the Animus fight against Anemone so easily, she wore herself out very quickly with all the spells she was casting, and he was able to get the jump on her.
Jerboa the third isn't a true Animus, but her magic is strong. I don't think her getting rid of Animus magic will happen in the au, but if it did, it would've been such a huge, strong spell, that it would've withered her away and killed her. It probably would be a risk she willingly took- and probably didn't even achieve. Not sure, idk if it'll even happen in the au, but yeah!!
