@@Mousedesvio Yeah I totally agree! I like a good mix of a hard and soft magic system. Thank you for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it :)
I have trouble with magic and never really knew how to create it fully I mainly just followed the basic Shonen magic system trope but your video showed how not only deviate from basic magic system but also make one that goes with the so thanks :D
When it comes to writing magic, the only limits are really your imagination! I’m glad I could help! Be sure to subscribe if you want to see more videos like this one. Will be doing a worldbuilding guide on crafting the perfect setting next week, so stay tuned! Appreciate you for watching :)
I'm sure there are videos like this one with better audio, video or editing made by more experienced youtubers. But this was a breath of fresh air, really ejoyed the video.
This comment just made my whole week. I really appreciate you even taking the time to watch the video, much less comment. The videos will only get better in quality from here!
Can’t wait to see what you come up with! Let me know how it goes. Also, thank you so much for watching. Your support means the world to me :) Also, I’m currently recording a video on how to write good settings. Should be coming out later this week!
I fully intended to! Thanks for watching, and don’t forget to subscribe if you want to see more videos like this one. I’ve got another worldbuilding guide coming out next week.
I've been thinking about starting up my own worldbuilding, and as I've been playing DnD and Pathfinder for years, I feel like it'd be inspired by the different forms of magic in those games. (Arcane, Divine, and Psionic) As an equivalent to arcane, I had the thought of naming the system "Sourcery" as its practitioners cultivate their magic from "Sources". A source would vary in its potential from it's ability to grow and change. So from least to most powerful a source could be a nonliving thing (like a sword), a former living thing (Like the branch of a tree in the form of a staff or wand), or a currently living thing. (Such as an animal or even the caster themselves). This is just the basis for one form of magic, let me know what you think! I enjoyed the video, and I'd like to know where I could see some of your writing.
Oh, wow that all sounds AMAZING actually. Thank you so much for checking out my video. I post some of my first/second drafts on Wattpad and my username is the same there.
Great video! I'm using more of a soft magic in my series inspired by Norse mythology... only the Vanir gods and Loki can weird it, and it's based on the elements and is powered by nature and emotions. My MC is just learning she can also weird this magic (but I can't say why as that's a HUGE spoiler!
sorry but harry potter has the literal opposite of a soft magic system. the entire setting is children going to school to learn magic. they learn spells through textbooks, every spell has a firm definition, and the spell names derive from latin roots that essentially just say what the spell does. the entire idea of the half blood prince is that it’s essentially a cheat sheet for magic. not saying the magic system is great but it’s not soft at all
@@asthen5332 I would agree with you, but the rules of this magic aren’t explicitly stated to us outside of the use of wands and the words of the spell, so I’ll concede and say it’s a semi-soft magic system.
Make sure to comment and subscribe for more videos like this one! If you’re just passing through, thank you for giving this video a chance! 💜
Me 🏃🏾♀️running to create my own magic system rn fr
Can’t wait to see what you come up with. Thank you for watching!
Hard magic systems that the rules are not completely explained seems just perfect for readers to explore and engage in the world

Think I might have a magic system for my universe
I would love to hear about it!

@@traceymayhewauthor I love that!!!! Thank you so much for watching :)
Nice video! I really like this explanation. Try not to make it too obvious you're reading from a script though!
Thanks for watching! Haha, yeah I’ve definitely got to get better at that. I’m not comfortable recording my face yet, but I’ll get there soon.
