World Building Prompt

World Building Prompt

Good questions in a world with magic:

How does the magic work? Do you need ingredients to cast a spell or just a word? Are there more difficult rituals that must take a longer time to perform?

What are the limits for your magic? How many spells can you use before you’re “empty”? (Make sure you take into account the difference of using many simple spells up to more than one difficult spell.)

How does one gain magic power? Do they gain it from a higher power, by reading and learning from books, from genetics, or some other way? (You can always gain help with this area from D&D player’s handbooks.)

Are there forbidden spells or forbidden paths of magic? Some good examples of what is usually seen as a forbidden path or magic are necromancy and blood magic.

For the higher level spells, why are they more difficult? What about them makes them more difficult? The amount of magical power or prowess needed? The necessary ingredients? The time period needed to cast the spell?

Is magic illegal in your world? Would your character(s) need to hide that they have magic? If it’s illegal, what happened to make it illegal?

Writing Prompts

1. “I remember you, you’re the one who accidentally set the tavern on fire.”

2. “Did you have to wear those shoes? We are trying to rob a bank.”

3. “Sometimes when life gets stressful you just make some pudding and then lay on the floor.”

4. “If acting like an idiot was a job, I’d be the CEO.”

5. “Why are you wearing that? It’s 30 degrees out here! How are you not dying?”

6. “Can you stop raising the dead for one minute and help me with this pizza?”

7. “I’m laughing because I’m dead on the inside.”

8. “No stabbing people while we are here, okay?”

9. “Just because we hate each other doesn’t mean I don’t care about them.”

10. “You wanna catch these hands? I’m ready to throw down! Come over here! I’m so ready to-.”

11. “Want some potatoes? You look like you had a long day.”

12. “I love when I see that my plan has worked.”

13. “Where did you get those socks?”

14. “If you see me burst out of this room running you should start running too.”

15. “I’ll wrap your door in tinfoil.”

We sometimes encounter people, even perfect strangers, who begin to interest us at first sight, somehow suddenly, all at once, before a word has been spoken.
