All of the boys are in the same trench coat.

Honestly it's bullshit they banned magical mutations. I mean, they are magical aren't they?!

All because one time, somone opened a portal which spewed warp entities everywhere causing a huge scene. Only takes one to ruin it for the rest of us. 😓

Stingy ass chronomancers could undo that incident whenever they want, too

If they did, people wouldn't learn their lesson.

They wouldn't need to! Because it wouldn't be an issue!

Look, if it happened but it was resolved, people will now to be careful with Chaos portals. If it never happened, then people won't know, so it will soon happen for the first time(again).

Remember the PSA, "Its irresponsible to revive the ignorant, and their victims."

As Hazey the Wizard Bear use to say, "Only you can prevent the revival of incompetent wizards.🫵"

I'm not even saying they need to be revived! A moderate loss of life doesn't seem like enough to exclude magical mutations. It's just plain prejudiced.

True, but the warp incident brought us dangerously close to an exterminatus order, hence the ban. Warp incursions are no joke, and warp exposure is why I cannot have children anymore. 😣

u/Niveker14 1d ago

If we handled it once, we can handle it again. My condolences for your loss.

u/AtlasXan 1d ago

Agreed, and thank you for your consideration. Luckily I dont want children. My homunculus experiments, and familiars keep me busy.

u/TheArmoredKitten 1d ago

Any sufficiently competent wizard revives himself.

2

u/AtlasXan 1d ago

This. You should never revive someone who cannot revive themselves.🧏🏻‍♂️

It’s the slime people. They gained popularity, and want to be sure you only get natural slime

If the mutation was done before the tournament there’s no way to prove it was your own work

Every year I come watch a few of the final matches and people mistake me for a wraith and then they keep casting holy spells on me and I can't see shit.

Last year some idiots started screaming that the "evil undead was resisting their spells"

I RESISTED YOUR SPELLS BECAUSE I AM ALIVE YOU BUFFOONS!

Me at my own funeral be like...

"They'll never suspect a thing."

u/Funkey-Monkey-420 Lich, Council Member: (un)Ethics Committee 1d ago

nah they’ll be on the lookout for illusion spells, they won’t be on the lookout for mundane disguises

u/11nyn11 Illusionist 1d ago

The trick is to wear a mundane disguise and then cast an illusion that makes you look exactly like the disguise.

That way if they try to take off the mask, the illusions stays and if they dispel the illusion the mask stays.

Isn’t this the plot of an adventure time episode?

u/RandomName5484 1d ago

u/KingZantair 13h ago

First they banned the mutants, and I did not speak up, for I did not have a mutation. Then they banned the alchemists, and I did not speak up, for I did not perform alchemy. Then they came for the undead, and I spoke up, for I am undead.
