And It Might Be Part Of An Au Im Writing - Tumblr Posts

Fun worldbuilding idea for Roarhaven, specifically the Leibniz mortals.

It’s been stated in-series that the mortals there are developing their own culture and such since they’re no longer being systematically oppressed by Mevolent, correct?

But these are just the mortals who actually grew up and spent their entire lives under Mevolent just learning to be happier now. Mortals live much shorter lives than sorcerers, and probably a bunch of the Humdrums mortals will start trying to catch up and better live alongside their fellow sorcerers (I know some of them might also leave to go live with other mortals, but I reckon most will want to stay around the place they grew up, especially when things tend to be fancier than mortal stuff).

So I have a suggestion. AMFoM used the term “technomage” to refer to a sorcerer who relies on magic items. WHAT IF that term were then commandeered for mortals who rely on magic items to keep up alongside their sorcerer peers? They’d suddenly live and work together so much better with the other sorcerers and they could be integrated into official sorcerer areas like the Sanctuary and they could perform certain tasks and do so much more, while also having to live under the reality that they age much faster than sorcerers, therefore causing them to work harder or live more chaotic lives?

I think it would be super fun to see how the mortals work to become equal to the sorcerers, especially if some of them try to stealth as sorcerers. Plus there’s also how sorcerers would react to having mortals who’re suddenly on the same level as them and doing the same jobs as them and not being so inferior anymore. It’d be such a fun topic to write about and worldbuild.
