I Made Intelligent Crystals as a Currency for My Magic System | Project Makaia
The Volthyrian Dynasty rules an inter-dimensional and galactic Empire that spans across many worlds. Despite its scale and diverse economies, the empire has managed to ordain a somewhat stable currency: the Aetherya crystal.
This is because the crystal has extremely high inherent value in the functions of society, war, and technology.

    Pretty cool magical system! I'm actually writing my story with the magic system philosophy where each character has their different ways to express themselves with said magic system, where each character represents an know genre, sub-genre. With the end result being an story where an magical girl, a robot, a shonen protagonist, an eldritch monster and an character out of a physycological/thriller series are against an cowboy, a cultivator out of a wuxia novel, an wizard, a kamen rider/Saint Seiya inspired character and finally the leader being a cartoon character that looks like he was straight from the 1920s...with the craziest part of all being that I decided to approach this premise seriously, or as seriously as you can, of course.

    Personaly, Ithink that currencies that are phisical usefull resources aren't good. If it can be used to create tools it means that anyone with money will be able to create weapons and that on market there will alweys be diffrent amount of that currency. But in that situation it can be good for some GIANT empire becouse it is aveilable everywhere and can be uses everywhere. Abaut grades I think it will be interesting when someone could create their own crystals with their atribybutes that only they can use (including equipment made from it, it will be more powerfull and compatable). To that ai there shoul be some barriers becouse it could recive unlimited data and memories and do somethig bad (planet of EtheraTech). Ando self learning weapons are always good. How will you take texes from phisical objects, cut into pieces?. I love the idea of this book and can't wait to hear more abaut this world. Good Luck in creating this amazin piece of art 😏👌

    Hey man, a friend of mine is creating an original story and is trying to devise a power system but is unsure of how to proceed. Here is what he has so far. Characters even in the beginning of the series are significantly above the average human in terms of strength, showcasing superhuman levels of strength and durability that would kill the average human, due to their Arks granting them superhuman characteristics with elemental manipulation. It's nothing too original since elemental powers are basically the standard norm for most shonen works but he wants advice on how to make it unique. He is considering taking the Bleach route where the owner's weapons basically have their souls attached to their weapons but he feels that would be far too complicated. For each weapon, there's also a "release" command that was majorly inspired by Bleach where a user's power is multiplied by a factor of ten at the cost of increased stamina consumption leading to fatigue. He has played a lot of mobile games and is a fan of Arknights power system of Originium Arts, but doesn't want to copy it entirely. He is basically considering scrapping and starting all over since the power system he wants basically contrasts heavily with the story arcs he has in mind The worldbuilding he has so far is inspired by both Attack on Titans and Cyberpunk 2077 along with RWBY so he has that down. It's basically a dark dystopia-based work.

    • @KingswithDragons
      @KingswithDragons 3 месяца назад

      Sounds like potential for a very interesting fusion of power systems. I would suggest absorbing your favorite elements from each series and simplifying them so they don’t over-complicate the story when they come together. Story-wise, I think any power systems can be modified to fit a story as long as the main conflict remains clear and character arcs made sense. Cheers and good luck on your worldbuilding!

    • @sleepycandle2642
      @sleepycandle2642 Месяц назад

      If it’s dark and dystopian, maybe the magic system is locked behind a certain material? Instead of it being something like Dust from RWBY, maybe there’s a specific plant that is used for weapon manufacturing, but is also a highly addictive drug. I read an article earlier today with a similar idea, but it could easily be tweaked for the type of world your going for.

    • @KingswithDragons
      @KingswithDragons 4 месяца назад

      Yes, glad to see someone familiar with Cultivation. These are all concepts of traditional Chinese martial arts, TCM, and classical Daoist Canon. The earliest authors of Xianxia adopted and fictionalized these ideas from centuries-old Daoist manuals such as "Principles of Inner Nature and Vital Force" (性命圭旨), "Biographies of Immortals" (Shenxian Zhuan), "Inner Canon of the Yellow Emperor" (Huangdi Neijing), etc. The original classics were written as works of religious or spiritual non-fiction. In fact, the earliest known accounts of Chinese history, such as records of the Yellow Emperor, feature concepts of cultivation, culminating in the Emperor's ascension to heaven. Just as the West had The Torah, the ancient Chinese had the Daoist Classics, in which ascension to Heaven is the goal of spiritual cultivation, just as the goal of Judeo-Christianity is to reach the Kingdom of God. The West talks about "Faith," the spiritual concept of firmly believing in that which you have not seen. The East talks about "Enlightenment," the concept of grasping that which you have not known. In the words of Will Wight (going off memory here): "There are a million paths in the universe, but they can all be reduced to one: Improve Yourself." Ultimately, the goal of Cultivation is not about gaining powers or immortality, but about elevating the spirit toward greater truths of the universe. Perhaps to see it on the macro scale, the Dao of Daoism is "the Way" just as the Dharma of Buddhism is "The Law," just as the Word of God rules all things. Personally, I believe they resonate with a degree of higher truth that can be applied universally to the human condition, regardless of culture, time period, or "magic system." I think, in the end, what is the fantasy genre but a medium through which to explore our own nature by visualizing a journey through mysterious forces of the cosmos?
