ARGH it is not Eragon-style god fucking dammit DDDDD:

Yeah, I know, but I was writing this fast this morning before school and put in Eragon because I saw it on my shelf. Later on I remembered that the style is originally Earthsea.


Can you edit polls? How? I've been trying but I can't seem to figure it out. I was going to add in all the options people have said, or at least a few, and change Eragon to Earthsea, but I'm not sure if I can...
 
Final Fantasy... black magic, white magic, blue magic (!!), geomancy, necromancy... you can have it all.

Harry Potter style magic is awesome. It's the kind that I immediately think about if someone says 'magic'.

Since I know nothing of FMA, Animorph or Eragon I also voted other for the Zelda 'borrowing the power of the gods' type thing. I dont know if it would come onder one of those categories.

Short answer, Yep :D

Final Fantasy is THE BEST. Period.
 
I like Harry Potter style magic because it can be used for nearly anything. (Like Butterfree said. Gosh, this just sounds like a badly-phrased echo of her post.) I also agree with her about bending. It has more use that just fighting, with many awesome benefits. It doesn't have any horrible side effects, or weird limitations, so I think that it's a very good style. I know little of alchemy but from what I've seen it seems a bit... dangerous. Pretty awesome, yes, but with consequences. And that's pretty much the extent of my FMA knowledge.
 
Alchemy , the Force, or the magic seen in Zelda for me please. Although bending would be nice. Though out of all of those I personally would go for either bending or the Force to have.

...actually, shoot me, but I think my favorite magic system is bending from Avatar: The Last Airbender. Real-life martial arts mixed with elemental powers that fit them, look cool, can do some pretty awesome stuff, have reasonable limits but can also be extremely powerful, and would be veeeeery fun if they were real. I'm going with that.

This. :D
 
Final Fantasy magic is pure win. I'd love to be able to have black magic, white magic, blue magic, green magic, red magic, alchemy, time magic, geomancy, summoning, necromancy, etc., etc.
If I were to devise my own magical system, however, I'd make something that would be strictly based off the elements, i.e. pyromancy, hydromancy, aeromancy, geomancy, necromancy, etc.

Adding other options would mean redistributing the "Other" votes and I cannot be bothered to do that. Did change it, though.
 
.... Everything.

I voted for Alchemy and Other though, because Alchemy is awesome and I was too lazy to click everything. HP-style magic would be super fun, though...
 
I like morphing style, but also just making a fire ball in your hand and throwing it crap like that is cool too. I want to turn into a dragon! :D
 
My favourite is the kind I made up in my head...

...But when one of the spells is capable of blowing up a city with little drain on yourself in a certain situation, then you have to ask yourself, "Ok, how broken is this system?"

Anyways, FF-Style and Avatar style rock :D

Morphing doesn't work like that.

Anyways, I went with morphing. x3 Alchemy was a close second, mainly because I love the concept of shapeshifting.
