Description:

 

The W-O-R-L-D is a world of adventure and magic populated by peaceful kingdoms like the kingdoms of Durstham, Londo, and Yorklott. It’s feudal culture and relatively underdeveloped planet dotted with pastoral settlements reminds one of Nazarth and Croatoan, and those two worlds get along well with the W-O-R-L-D in our multiverse community due to their similar cultures. 

 

The art of magic in the W-O-R-L-D is focused around the construction of words of power by arranging letters. For instance, by summoning the letters G-A-S, Bagley is able to create a cloud of foul-smelling, enervating vapors, and by spelling P-U-N-C-H, Bagley can summon a disembodied fist to punch a target.

 

This focus on wordplay makes spell books, and thus libraries, very valuable in the W-O-R-L-D. Nearly every kingdom has at least one library. Sorcerer Saleem’s Starter Spells is a noted classic for those interested in the magic system of the W-O-R-L-D.

 

There are many magicians in the W-O-R-L-D and they all try to carve out a unique niche for themselves. For instance, Bagley’s great friend Bough is the Banquet Magician specializing in feasts and celebrations. There’s a magician for every need and occasion, but if you want a factotum with OK abilities (but OK prices!), you can’t get much better (or much more OK) than Bagley, the OK Magician!

 

Individuals of Note

 

Bagley

 

 

Bagley is an OK magician. His spells never turn out great, but they also never turn out bad either. They only ever turn out OK–and he’s fine with that! An OK magician is what he aspires to be. He provides OK service for OK fees. That’s his niche.

 

Plucky, humble, and professional, Bagley is A-Okay!

 

Raw Power: OK

Durability: OK

Speed: OK

Sanity: OK

Intelligence: OK

Skill: OK

 

Wizwald

 

Wizwald the dictionary magician is a magician of great skill and greater ego. He lives to improve his already considerable magical skill and to make sure people know it. After a magic match against Bagley in the Londo Library he became what one might call an…okay friend to Bagley, and an okay rival.

 

Wizwald was banned from the Londo Library for the commotion he caused and had his precious library card confiscated–which meant little as he carries a collection of library cards in his coat.
