    Congrats to the winners. Everyone did really well this time around, I was impressed with every single sheet and choosing was super difficult.

    And gosh, Sunny. First the last Servant contest and now here. Is your plan to always be first and start us off with a bang? That's unfair. I demand you reflect on your actions!

    I didn't vote because I was too lazy to do so, but Zuizan displayed the kind of creativity I expected from the prompt. Not that the others weren't creative in their own ways, mind you (Sunny's and Hermes' sheets stand out in particular), but I made the theme deliberately vague enough so that entries like "magi who were cursed", "curses that took human form (a la You's Icecolle from Cursed Cold Colle)", etc. could all be valid entries. Congrats to a well-deserved win.

    I never expected to win anything so I'm just happy people voted for my entry(s) at all. Much thanks goes to World-0 and Balthizar for giving Platina their first place spot, which I genuinely did not expect. Love you guys!

    E-Eh? I'll try to take longer...!

    It's probably bad of me. ^^; I tend to insist on finishing in one sitting, which is why I end up dropping a day 2 sheet all the time, then agonizing over being so premature and waiting anxiously for the next extrant, eheh.

    Not even a mention of my two sheets, and I even created two stories that complete themselves... well, next time I'll have to work harder

    Our winner, the prolific Daneel Rush has given me me a prompt for the next contest. It's as follows:

    Quote Originally Posted by Daneel Rush

    Magi have many ways of inflicting harm on others, including the staples of fantasy: balls of flame, conjured creatures, animated objects, hexes, or even superpowered kung-fu. There's got to be some magi, however, lacking the fortune of an elemental affinity or magic crest granting them a straightforward means of offensive magecraft. So, show me unconventional ways to kill using magecraft. More importantly, show me the magi whose circumstances have pushed them into developing such methods.


    It's a pretty broad topic. So he graciously supplied some examples of what "unconventional" here might mean.

    * A healer who can elicit immune responses in the bodies of her victims (organ rejection), effectively causing their self-destruction.
    * A serial killer magus whose only ability is projecting her voice and changing how it sounds, so she drives her victims to suicide by talking to them. Constantly. All the time. From every direction. Even from inside their own heads.
    * A perfumer whose magecraft is changes a person's chemistry so it emits specific scents. So she makes her victims exude an odor that makes animals attack them.
    * A magus who can mess with people's face recognition. So, if he wants to kill person X, he makes person Y hate him with murderous passion, and then makes it so that, to person Y, person X looks like himself. Or he just drives people mad by making their faces in the mirror look like the person they hate the most.
    * A magus who can (somehow) make his victim believe he is in a Groundhog's Day loop, and thus can get away with anything.
    * A magus who can (somehow) make his victim think itself and believe itself stronger/smarter/handsomer/whatever that it actually is, until it gets itself killed by biting more than it can chew.
    * Thaumaturgical systems are rules embedded upon the World through a ritual and fomented by faith in their mystery. A certain clan developed a variation that allows for a lesser, simpler rule (for example, X must die) to be ingrained in a similar manner. The rule is eventually rejected by the World, but if it's simple enough and non-threatening to the World at large, by the time it is removed by the World, it has already achieved the desired effect.

    Good Luck

    The Submission Deadline is 11/23/2017 11:59PM PST which is also when voting will begin. The Voting Deadline is 11/30/2017 11:59PM PST.

    I wonder, would killing someone by overloading their mind with pleasure count as "unconventional" enough? Had a character in mind who kills like that and it was a toss up between making them a Hassan or a mortal magi. With this contest going on I might just go with the latter...

    Ah, so your idea for this prompt is Kiara Sesshouin?

    You're right there is a similarity (can't believe I didn't notice that), but I think my idea is different enough to be interesting.

    You can think of it as Kiara if she were a martial artist and genuinely altruistic (in a twisted way) towards humanity rather then a solipsist...

    So she punches them until they feel good... That is rather unconventional

    I'm debating on revamping an old magus sheet I made eons ago about a magus with arms made of volcanic glass or try making the Nasuverse equivalent of Heavy Weather. Either way it'll be a blast and fun to do. Best of luck to us all!
    My thirst for Antonio grows by the second.

    Nope, that's still just Kiara

    Like, her whole motivation in CCC is SAVE PEOPLE WITH ORGASMS
