As a hyper-consumer of anything not real and fun I've become inspired by both western and eastern fantasy and been nurturing a simple passion project I'm quite sure I won't complete in this life, nonetheless I've been gathering concepts to Frankenstein together I've enjoyed from various sources of all types/origins of Sci-Fi & fantasy: there are 2 main things to know so far - 1st: the world is post-post-scifi fantasy - and alive and has had buildings and all forms of life from 3-7? differing worlds with different thaumaturgy ("scientific" miracle arts) teleported onto a planet that long ago briefly visited by a tier 4.2 civilization and left behind as they ascended to a higher state- explaining dungeons, chimeric creatures, … | 2nd: due to this blending the 8 main forms of thaumaturgic energies dragged along with their world's beings/things have had their limits blasted open and many more beings can use them to greater extents - the 2nd most common power is Ether - a ambient dark matter like substance that's in a dual matter-energy state (inspired by the dual wave-particle nature of elementary particles):
When Ether acts as an energy, and it can have 6 charges: in 3 pairs of "+"/"ordered" or "-"/"chaotic" states: Light & Dark, Water & Fire, Stone & Air, with 'Æther' being the name for the non charged state: 'non-elemental' of sorts. You can combine the basic 6 elements by using equal units of neutral æther to emulsify/bind 2-3 neighboring elements [opposites have too much repulsion so they won't bind] creating the secondary (Ice, Metal, Lightning, Flora), or Polarized (previous 8 plus light/dark) elements: my problem is I have a couple options that I need to ask about:
| +Light | Blaze/Sunfire | Sound | Mirage | Crystal | Radiation | Sterling | Mirror | Life |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Element | Fire | Air | Water | Stone | Lightning | Metal | Ice | Wood |
| +Dark | Ash or Hellfire | Gravity or Void | Blood | Tar or Grav. | Magnet | Mercury | Decay | Poison |
» The idea is light makes things more concentrated, sharp, direct, and such; whereas dark makes things more debuffing, indirect, corrosive, and spread-out: So I'm wondering if Gravity would make sense under air since one of the only things even more everywhere than air would be pressure/gravity, but earth and dark would make sense since gravity forms due to mass. The idea of void would be manipulation of vacuums and nothingness - being like an editing program eraser where a user could carve out things - more mass would be tougher to do as you're overwriting the conservation of mass via ether which acts like a direct admin command to the universe.
» Lastly, from shows I've seen smoke/ash being used quite fun and interestingly but I also like the idea of a napalm like hellfire thats grey/black (idea inspired by LOTM) that could be used to curse or to burn nonphysical things like curses depending on the user's will. || LINK to my google doc for extra reading
