Magic Systems - Dr. Rowling or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Magic

This week we talk about magic. Sometimes it's great, sometimes it's boring, but why? We split hairs over Harry Potter and The Name of the Wind, and talk about what we think is important in a well rounded magical universe.

We also (finally) fix JK Rowlings multi billion dollar wizarding world (you're welcome!) by adding some real stakes to the equation.

We hope you enjoyed this episode of World Forge, and if you did, we would encourage you to leave us a review on iTunes! We also would love it if you sent us feedback in whatever form you find most appropriate, all fan mail, fan art, and fan fiction can be directed to us on twitter @worldforgepod or at [email protected].

We also introduced a new segment this week where we recommended some other great sources of inspiration out there in the wide world of roleplaying games. Spoiler warning: this week we recommend you go and check out Arcane Forge on youtube (@Arcane_Forge on twitter) if you're looking for further help building your own fantasy worlds.

Our lovely theme music is provided by James Duke. He can be found at jamesduke.info.

As always we appreciate your support, thanks for listening, and we'll see you next Monday morning!
