Magic and its effects on the world

**Ryos** · May 10th, 2001

Who needs technology? Just a little AD&D magic would suffice for all the world's woes. Observe:

'Irnar's Poloroidic Pregnancy (Necromancy)

Class: Mage
Level: 6
Range: Touch
Components: V, S
Duration: permanent
Casting Time: 6
Area of Effect: 1 creature
Saving Throw: Neg.

This spell will speed up the pregnancy of a woman from 9 stages to
9 hours (1 hour for each stage left until birth). The pregnatn woman
must make a system shock when its time to give birth. Success
indicates that the birth is successful, failure indicates that child
dies and the woman suffers a permanent -1 reduction to constitution.
'Irnar is still researching, but the priestesses of the Mother
Goddess are doing their damndest to hunt him down and destroy his research, it is a violation of their creed.

Mayhaps there is a calling for a mage Ryos somewhere...

True enough, but as any number of Final Fantasy and [x] Mana games have taught us, eventually someone (or a given group) abuse their magical talents and magic, being the fickle kind of thing it is, receeds for awhile. Of course, then some power-hungry person/corporation goes out searching for magical power to use with their newly built machines/weapons/artificially enhanced humans, and all sorts of trouble begins

dont you guys watch the WB?

they use magic in 'real world' situations...well, kinda..
they do it in buffy, angel, and charmed

however, i fail to see how increases the worlds population by having babies faster would actually help to solve any problems..

However a curaga would be be useful.
