I’m trying to write a story similar to that but stripped away the ‘game’ aspect. It’s not that card magic system novels don’t exist. There is an entire eastern fantasy genre dedicated to how mages ‘summon’ using cards. Usually they can also create those cards and their effects. Card magic...

Reminds me of the time I wanted to write a story about the ‘Sixth Power Ranger’ acting as a ‘Dark Protector’ for a group of Magical Girls. Since their powers are different, he fights much differently from them but wants to protect them all the same. Let me just copy paste that glossary since...

(Context in other Draft Idea posts) I was originally planning on making a guy and girl matchup like what’s usually the norm. I had this whole thing about starting the story with a conflict of ideals… but ended up changing that to a battle between a grave robber and victim. Fritz Lazrik, the...

I know this is my second comment but I just wanted to specify what I meant. Mother Nature is a cruel beast and the law of the jungle can be described more as insanity than cruelty. There are insects that eat, rip each other apart, control parasitically, camouflage or simply design themselves to...

Focus more on race than sophisticated Class specifications. Words like ‘Red’, ‘Horned’, ‘Predator’, ‘Gluttony’. More describing what they specialise in physically rather than skilfully.

This is an extension post to Draft Idea 8 and the gist of these posts is that I’m creating a card magic academy. I’ve already went into detail about the intended magic system, but never really talked about these ‘invisible rules’ I always bring up when someone mentions consistency. I thought...

That’s the gist of the idea at least. The MC was supposed to be always trying to ‘adjust’ and ‘correct’ his actions constantly. Making him walk a path closer to ‘The correct way of walking and breathing’, but unable to reach that just yet due to the ‘correction’ itself being very ill-defined...

I based it off Kiritsugu’s Origin. Self-Adjustment meaning to modify an aspect of oneself specifically rather than the world, and Correction being to walk towards perfecting oneself. Both of them complement each other but you’re right on the latter being so important that you can forget the...

I understand what you mean. Two people just want to stitch two separate stories together regardless of consistency. They also can’t agree on a main character.

Honestly, my love for fate and everything surrounding it isn’t strong enough to write a fanfic about it… but an idea did pop into my head while trying to figure out a way to write a progressive story without breaking the universe. The nasuverse as a whole has the type of magic system that takes...

My personal reason for being unable to continue a collab with someone always boils down to two reasons: Unfamiliarity with the co-writer, and not having good memory. The latter is obvious why since I can’t remember details not written down. Be it story, world building, character… I just can’t...

So I finished the first chapter of ‘The Thuggish Dude Goes To The Card Academy’ (pending title) and am reflecting on what I wrote. Specifically on the development rather than the writing. I’m trying to make sure my brain understands what my heart desires to write. Something like that. So I...

Thought it’d be too wordy since he comes from an entire different breed of ‘magic users’ who don’t use Mana. They instead use ‘Redmist Qi’ coursing through their body thanks to a special breathing technique. Vanessa, on the other hand, is using her body and simple but modern spells. Fritz has...

I originally was going to make the Card Holder the one who complicates the plot, but my mind changed thanks to some character concepts I had laying around. Now I’m thinking of making the novel reader a magic user himself in the past. And I mean that literally. In his point of view, he is a pro...

He was supposed to be foil for Vanessa since they had met before. Their relationship being very one-sided since she destroyed the inflated ego he had as a new entrant. A way to make there be more than one team dynamic.

Concept 1 seems like a Power Fantasy but the inconsistency comes with how powerful Contractors sound despite being ‘unpopular’. It is just strange that even though there are many IRL who would do the most tedious things to enter the best of the best (even if not universally acclaimed). It makes...

I’ve decided to go with a mix of introducing a super-powered ‘Delinquent Syndicate’ and the Disciplinary Committee trying to bust them. It makes for an easy introduction on who can be relied on as allies and which students need a beating. The latter turning into a climactic battle. This was for...

I vibe with how you said that. So true.

That’s if I want to do it and I don’t. Plus of course world building and setup will be done before the villain introduction. I’m focusing on the “Battle Academy Romcom Fun”… but don’t want there to be no action in it until the main plot kicks it. Thus, I’m just putting the poll up to find the...

The poll is back, baby! With the emphasis more on what the ‘first arc’ should be centred on now that the themes of ‘materialism bad’, ‘classism bad’, and ‘dunking on the main character for being poor is a no-no’ out of the way. One thing I am keeping in mind when thinking of the first arc is...
