Happy Storyteller Saturday 😄 What do you think your characters wouldn’t survive? Why wouldn’t they survive it? -MayvinWrites
I mean, most of my characters are mortal and can generally die in mortal ways. The main obstacle to their shuffling off the mortal coil is that they tend to have magical defenses that make killing them harder than normal.
The magic of the world hasn’t been back long enough for most people to notice (about 20 years at this point), but there are a fair number of people who are actually immune to death from old age or poisoning. Most of them are Dragonlord magi, and while they are rare, but they aren’t unknown.
The only true immortals are those who don’t have mortal bodies, Yttress (who is more a projection of a sacred tree in the vein of Yggdrasil) and Fithrain (who has proven to be as close to absolutely indestructible a human-shaped thing has ever been).
