>>37209022The elves don’t really have a unified culture nowadays so the only social norms that can truly be called elven would be those tied to their physiology like the heavier focus on providing maternal care. In /vnug/ both Penelites and Remlins have a significant amount of elves though! (unless Kokone’s fan got a different official design)
>>37224126I should work on that… the backlog grows
/vnug/’s magic is based around organic-chuubanite complexes! I sometimes describe it as magical essential oil. The molecules work as activators that can interact with specific sounds working as glyphs. It’s a skill that’s mastered by bard-magicians who know how to make specific sounds (mostly by singing and/or playing instruments) to make specific chuubanite molecules do specific magical things, with their power level determined by how precise they can make the sounds and also how many of these combinations they know. Quavers’ bard-magicians probably are the most versatile magic users in /vnug/ since there are a lot of molecule-sound combinations but I imagine their magic to focus on subjective experiences like manipulating perception (illusion) and emotions, although they can also do other things from lighting up the oil (which is also how the Quavers test their members) to healing and promoting growth as suggested by Lofi’s own lore
Because of /vnug/’s environment there’s a bunch of these molecules floating in the air and in the system of plants and animals so powerful bard-magicians can use them directly, but more often they play to concentrated extracts of magical essential oil on/in the targets which are easier to control and activate. Some of these extracts can also act by themselves when consumed/absorbed like magical medicine, which is how the Dreamwalkers from Remland use them to do dream-related magic. Powerful Dreamwalkers are able to use specific mixtures to manipulate others’ dreams like entering them. It’s kinda similar to how bard-magicians do that as they use carefully-composed “soul-songs” to pinpoint the target! As for the bitterbugs, they basically stabilize volatile chuubanite-infused molecules from wildlife with their own juice that can then be consumed by people like the bugs’ handlers and hunters, which makes them kinda similar to the Dreamwalkers’ herbal magic but with a heavier focus on combat-related stuff like all kinds of buffs
