Item Inquiry

Item Inquiry: Hinblatt

KC J. Hutchins

In appearance, they are large, purple, oval-shaped rain forest-like leaves that have white veins running through them. They are found in trees that bathe in the moonlight in the forests of Baum in the region of Floresta. These unique leaves can grow on any type of tree, usually found in the higher branches where it is closer to the moon. Foragers in the Moon Claw tribe will gather these at night when they are easier to see. The healers can then use these plants to help quicken healing of broken bones by wrapping the area in the foliage. Within a week, the patient will be able to use their body back to their full potential.

A Closer Look

A Closer Look: Summoners

KC J. Hutchins

A sorcerer that depends on items and others to assist in battle; these people wear gauntlets that glow orange to manifest their magic into the physical plane. Depending on the individual, you might find yourself fighting a very different style then another among their core. That is because Summoners spends their lives collecting creatures and objects to use against their enemies, making their way of battle highly customizable. Think a pack rat with the ability to unlimitedly store their items. Well, unlimited is a strong word. The requirement for storing the new summonee is to have enchanted parchment which the Summoner has created ahead of time. Once locked inside, a sentient being will be given a customized environment catering to their whim. Most of the time this is against their will. During many of wars especially the Wizard’s War, Summoners benefited the most from the conflict. On each battlefield, they captured their enemies to use as pawns against their own. Friends became enemies in a twisted series of events. Resentment from dragons and other species are common toward these types of sorcerers.

Often Summoners will carry around journals of their summonees. These they can have float around them and come alive with the spell known as Eisque. Similar to the energy form animation, this talent allows them to animate an ordinary object into a sentient being linked to the wielder’s psyche. The emphasis is on an ordinary object, they cannot do so with elements like other sorcerers. With the ability to summon anything they mark, one must be careful. They could spring upon you a Matahari or summon a gun just to set you off balance. Expect the unexpected when fighting this opponent.

Item Inquiry

Item Inquiry: Densan

KC J. Hutchins

Silbermond, as discussed before, reacts to moonlight and/or the primal energy released by werewolves. What happens when the injury is given by a fellow werewolf using this energy? The medicine is not strong enough to tell the difference between the healer’s power and that radiating off the wound. In order to remedy this, the healer grinds wolves’ teeth, claws, and hairs into a powder. Then they slowly pour the dust in evenly, controlling the flow with their hand. If done correctly, a puff of silver should arise from the concoction. With this complete, one had made the medical potion known as Densan.

About the Author

About the Author: Actually About the Author

KC J. Hutchins

A realization stuck me that all my about the author posts have not really talked about myself. So, let’s just talk about the basics; of course as you read I am a writer with a vivid imagination. The world of Magitotum started as a game I played with my brother, cousin, and a childhood friend. Over the years it evolved through my habit of journaling, filling up five of them with various ideas and concepts. Now not everything within these pages retains to the world of Magitotum. There are various ideas for businesses, epic retellings, food recipes, plays, musicals, sketches, my future house design, and array of others ideas that scurry around in my head. Hopefully one day you will see all of these brought to life.

In my free time I enjoy writing (such a shocker), playing video games, spending time with my fiancée, geocaching, watching movies, and playing board games with friends and family. It is important, in my humble opinion, to be a well rounded individual. I enjoy challenging both my mind and my body and encourage you to do the same. Relaxing while reading blogs is fantastic (see what I did there?), but remember to enjoy the great outdoors. Smell the fresh scent of the pines, laugh at the antics of chipmunks, feel the sand between your toes, delight in the taste of fresh picked berries, and listen to nature that surrounds you; from the rustling leaves to the crashing of waves. Even more important is to share these moments with loved ones and friends. There is no greater treasure in this world than spending time with others whom you love, at least that is what I believe.

Item Inquiry

Item Inquiry: Rock of Affiprob

KC J. Hutchins

In the Cave of Bonantru underneath the Library of Mihidoc found in the land of Mendaxum, these rocks are found embedded in the wall. The item has a clear gem in the middle while swirled around it are layers of minerals and moss. It is required by all sorcerers to have this item on them while on missions. If a person finds a possible sorcerer who is past the age of eighteen the Habepert is performed. If they are a Shaman, the center stone glows green as Peace Lilies sprout from the cracks. Adversely, a Necromancer will find a pitch black gem as rest of the stone turns to dust. A sweet smell will arise from the item if a Pellax while it glows a dark pink. Fire will burn the exterior of the red gem if a Pyromancer holds it. This being a rare event for this kind of sorcerer is found few in number. Unlike them, the most common of sorcerers is the Magician, masters of misdirection and magical hand to hand combat. If one of them holds the rock, a set of cards dances out from within the center of the yellow glowing stone. A barrage of colorful notes accompanied by the sound of trumpets will erupt from the middle stone if a Tecuprin is touching the object. More calm and soothing than the last, a Mage obtaining the Rock of Affiprob will find the surface smooth out and be covered in a shield of blue energy emitting from the center. Summoners have the wackiest of reactions to the item. From within the orange gem, a barrage of objects will emerge from the wielders room; to the dismay of the poor new recruit. Finally, if the extremely rare event of a Supreme holds the rock, the center gem levitates from within the Rock of Affiprob and floats around the eighteen year old before glittering down upon them as a powder. After this ritual is over, the new classified sorcerer keeps the gem that was found in the middle of the rock. By doing this act, it helps structure an education for someone who is behind their new peers. Usually, these new sorcerers become apprentices to Scroll Keepers.
