I've run into a bit of a funny issue regarding the schools of magic in SpellMasters.
My original instincts were to have an "Enchanter" who could harness magic and wield it into physical forms such as items and also have ways to SOURCE magic too into things like magical waters from Magical Springs or by using Mana to transfer magical properties. The bottom line: I saw the "Enchanter" as someone who could make Potions as well as "charging" other items.
But then I came upon another type of character, I don't know if he can also be considered a "Wizard", certainly his school of magic is a logical one and could be even more realistic than my "Enchanter". This is namely "Alchemy" and the character in question would be an "Alchemist".
The problem with the "Alchemist" is that his is RESTRICTED to making solutions and Potions of all types. Which is cool... But the "Enchanter" has even GREATER powers in that he can transfer and command magic in all kinds of vessels such as weapons (staffs, darts, wands, etc.) and other trinkets that can be useful at certain times.
So which do you think is more appropriate: The Enchanter or The Alchemist???
Feel free to provide comments along with your preference. I'm just curious which of the two (2) is more popular of a choice (and why).
Cheers!
Anyone have opinions on this topic??? Just curious in seeing what people may be thinking! One versus the other, fors and/or againsts...
