Don’t go overboard with spells… Maybe enchanting and healing ect. you dont want its combat to be based solely on magic, or it wont be pirate-y enough :3 ---

Magic infused items should be available, since there should be a race that cant use magic. But if there’s a race for magic (or jack of all trades) then they wouldn’t need them, but it could add to their power? ---

What we were thinking of for magic spells originally was: Flight, (mainly for the non-bird men but it also helps the bird men bc they would only be able to fly for a very short while) Heal, (of course but it would be specially learned) Wards, (also specially learned) ---

Sounds fun! I like the use of magic like this, but if its hard on the PC then he should be able to do something to make it easier on him. ---

Also what kind of magic item do you propose ---

How about magic items that can protect from certain things, like swords or gunfire? Others could magically increase certain stats, and can only be gotten certain ways. One challenge could be trying to find them all. ---

Ah, those are some good ideas. And about magical items, PIXIE DUST GUNPOWDER… Joking, but seriously… Hmm, swords, maybe cannonballs, a magical flintlock would also be pretty sweet. (also, how are you gona do flying? Peter Pan style, or like magical wings?) ---

As for enchanted items we thought to bring those out as a plot point later on in the game ---

@Highduke we probably will change the spell name from Flight to The Wings of Icarus which would come out as magic wings while the bird men would naturally levitate ---

@Antitorpiliko as for making it easier on the PC we will only do that for the explosive magic seeing as if we do that for the slow time magic it would provide no challenge In the game much ---
