I made a similar thread a year ago if that helps: https://hexbear.net/post/185417
In my novel nothing stops any character from learning magic (better thought of as being based on chi but I’ve not picked a word) but some of the most powerful characters are able to inscribe chi “shortcuts” into people with no chi practice/ skills allowing them to use magical abilities without any formal understanding or awareness of chi.
Don’t worry we went up north and had a random character kill the changer of climates.
If only there was a way to run this on linux.
