magic as a science, magic that defies science, and so much more






The world was once full of magic and all things supernatural during the Age of the Gods before the Age of Man which began a period where magic and all things supernatural where shunned and eventually forgotten treated as myth by most of mankind.Just because most mankind stopped believing in them doesn't mean these things still didn't exist on Earth just not as much as they did on all the various realms connected to Earth, the supernatural world went on under the nose of the natural world. Over the next two millenia science developed but began to create more problems then it could solve eventually technology and it capabilities grew out of hand.


Then came World War III in which the destruction of the world was just barely avoided. The destruction of the world was avoided thanks to the world of a secret society of scientist who sought to recreate magic, they were called the Magi. They didn't quite create magic but new age form of it based in science called Ars Mundus. It was the Magi who then took control of the world and spread their gift of Ars Mundus to the world in a period called the 2nd Renaissance.


However, actual magic wasn't gone and a century after the discovery of Ars Mundus came an increase Supernatural activity and the eventually reemergence of the Supernatural. Dragons, monster, demons, mana, aether, ki, chi, gods, and more have begun to make their presence known to the world which has begun a new age of calamity.


Will magic as a science and magic that defies science coexist or destroy each other? Is there something even larger than that conflict at work here? What will the answers to those questions bring?


Plot: So basically this RP is about a world revolutionize by a science based form of magic. However, now that real magic and supernatural creatures have begun reappearing in the world. This is a world that hasn't seen real magic or real supernatural creatures in 3000 years. Now the world is in yet another time of change and calamity. Those who possess this power are the key to determining the fate of the world.


This is inspired by type moon or more commonly known as the Fate series as well as magi, and guilty gear.  Guilty Gear inspired the portion relating to science nearly destroying the world with magic as a science restoring it. Fate inspired the difference between real magic and Ars Mundus because in the Fate Series magecraft is limited with real magic called Sorcery capable of doing what is impossible.


In my previous projects using Ars Mundus I had tried to use solely Ars Mundus but now hopefully the option of Supernatural concepts will help this project be a success.
