Lef's magic - Magic Games

Magic

Primary Magic: Magic Games
Secondary Magic:
Caster or Holder: Caster
Description:

This magic would allow Lef to create games, then forces others into them. They can be pre-made for quick access - once a game is made it be pulled out easily - but they can also be crafted whilst in combat. Doing so requires firm concentration. The user would set the rules and regulations as well as conditions for the game which all players cannot break. Each game could have levels of variation. An example of a game could be Dodgeball. A ball of energy would form in the casters hand and his and the opponent’s goal would be to touch the other person, touching them could mean different things, from that limb being unusable for the rest of the game, to game loss. Following all rules of normal dodgeball, or some made up rules they'd play out the game till a person won. The effect on the loser is determined when the game is cast. Anything that would happen during the game because of the game is annulled when it ends. I.e. an unusable limb from a game would be usable once again. The only thing that remains from the game after is the effects of winning or losing. These could range from loss of consciousness to a debuff or death or anything really, as it is the Reward for playing the game.  
Lef usually uses this magic to cast a game on a would-be opponent as it removes the need to fight openly and creates an alternative way to win or enhance a fight. Lef isn’t stupid however and knows that he cannot target everyone with his magic, or avoid all fights. As such he will sometimes use his games to bring him an advantage in combat, which – despite his dislike – he is proficient at. This can range from isolating parts of a group in games to aid his allies, or using games against those not playing them.

Strengths:
• Targeting: this magic is a targeting magic in its core as the user chooses the players when he casts the game, as such the user is the sole decider of who is cast into his games.
• Alternative win: This is what this magic does, it allows for another winning option one in which the user has a say.
• Variety: there are many games, and even in one game, there can be many variations, this is the case for this magic as even though the user must create games to be able to use them efficiently (labelling them as spells) the rules for the same game can change in some aspects from one casting to another.

Weaknesses:
• Not actually a sure win: the user creates the games, yes, but it is not certain that he will win, this only allows another path to choose and it does not always lead to victory.
• This magic affects everyone it is cast upon: literally. Even though the user creates the rules, both he and the players are subjected to them once the spell is cast. Neither players can compel themselves to break the rules.
• User cannot mass target people if they are outside of a city radius without considerable concentration and time limit.
• Magic is non-conventional, which is to say that the user must be considerably more inventive to try to attain the same things as other mages.
• User cannot cast a game on someone whose rank is higher than one rank superior to his. Example, he is D-rank, he can only cast his games on non-mages, D-ranked and C-ranked mages.

Abilities/Powers:
Can create games in which he creates the rules, these can break or alter physics, but apply to all participants.
