Formal Scrolls! ??

Okay, so I am setting here going over all the formal stuff and trying to take in what I can (So excited to use formal magic) but anyways I start to ponder... Where do formal scrolls come from? ...... I know you can get copies, find them IG and so forth, but all other IG items and aspects have meaning and reasoning to where they came from..... such as created items....

So other as far as an IG prospecting "Where do formal scrolls come from?" .... I think this could even be an interesting "Find out in game" situation if there was a logical explanation.....

Aside from my rambling... thoughts? explanations?

Anything is better then .... *poof* formal scroll?

I think it would cost the life of not only several formal mages but a dragon or two. and while we are at it might as well throw in the sacrificing of a virgin. I agree we do need some IG explanation for the existence of formal scrolls.

You should ask ti tie where she thinks they come from.

Umm.... I might be afraid of that answer!

*Vixen grin*

a VERY LARGE BOOM!!??? just my guess of Ti Tie's answer

No, that is only after you tell me my guess if wrong. ^^

To all players,

This is my offical explaination concerning formal magic scrolls. Once a long time ago in ancient times mages once knew how to create formal magic scrolls. This knowledge has since been lost and now mages can only read and copy such magic scrolls.

Many of these scrolls can be found in the great libraries of Avalon or on other continents in Tyrra. These libraries have complete collections of each known formal magic scroll of both schools. The constant up keep of such libraries make it only possible for the great nations of Avalon to keep these works on hand.

There are many private collectors in Avalon and many of these scrolls can be found in such collections. Other ways one might find such scrolls is in ancient tombs, ruins, strongholds etc...

The last way such scrolls of power are found, is they are created by ancient powers and creatures that still remember the knowledge of the creation magic. These scrolls are usually created to help further the cause of those that created it.

I hope this helps explain why formal magic scrolls are only found and not created by PCs.

aww, I still like my theory of a dragon and a high mage got busy.

^^ I dub it "Ti Tie's Big Bang Theory, part 27". Something tells me all Ti Tie's theories involve a big bang of some kind.

all i can say is ROFLMAO!

i like the "big bang" theory!
