This is how placebomancy works in UNSONG. Someone did a study comparing praying for rain from a pagan deity vs from random letters pulled from a game of scrabble, and both worked equally well. Though placebomancy isn't the only form of magic in it.

de ja vu i have seen this prompt before

Of course! The Pricordonij Republic is about 20 times smaller than the Federation of SCTT, but since most more powerful countries in their world, like the UPOD, support the Pricordonij Republic, it is overall more powerful. The leader of the Federation or SCTT, Cosai Rucova, is a horrible leader. Ever since his father, Fyodor, died around 30 years ago, causing the collapse of his country, the TSR, Cosai wanted to renew and bring back what his father had when he was around. This has led Cosai to be just like his father in terms of leadership: strictly authoritarian, threatening, greedy for power, and oppressive to his people. After decades of the Federation of SCTT and it's allying countries being at conflict with the Pricordonij Republic, the UPoD and almost the whole rest of the world, Cosai's constant threats of nuclear warfare, lethal chemical bombs, the wiping out of entire cities, and more have been carried out.

Shyyna has a younger brother of 7years, Sergei, and a 5yr old sister, Anna. Her father is fighting for their countries' freedom, and her mom is a shop owner, struggling to get by with the little money she makes. When the news about the next stage in war is announced, Shyyna's mom breaks the news that she will have to take her siblings run as far away as she can, possibly to an allying country nearby. Unfortunately, her mom will be unable to do so, and will be left behind. Now, it is up to Shyyna to keep herself and her two younger siblings alive in a world that is being torn down by the second, and possibly meet some friends on the way who can help eachother out in their own individual goals of survival.

Any specific information can also be provided. I have not named every single country yet, but I can provide info on some

MAIN COUNTRIES Pricordonij Republic- Leader: Ukron Salva. Size comparison: a bit bigger than Ukraine. Economy: struggling due to war

TSR- Former leader: Fyodor Rucova Size comparison: over a tenth of the world's landmass Economy: Struggled toward the last few years, the first few years, and near the conflict with UPoD; Communist

Federation of SCTT - Leader: Cosai Rucova. Size comparison: just over half of what the TSR had, about one Canada big. Economy: better than nothing, but it ain't good

UPoD- leader: Demias Amex. Size: About that of the United States minus Alaska and any Island territory. Economy: it seems good but it's struggling; extremely capitalistic

UNNAMED PRICORDONIJ ALLY- Leader: Wasnar Pitalij Size comparison: Poland, minus the mass of one Estonia. Economy: not as good as before but still good

UNNAMED SCTT ALLY #1 Leader- Chisha Qien Size: Brazil plus Kazakhstan Economy: not doing good at the moment, but still alright; Communist (?)

UNNAMED SCTT ALLY #2 Leader- Kareai Norat Size: Approx that of the Netherlands Economy: What economy?; Even more communist than the TSR was.

There are also some more insignificant counties in the universe that aren't mentioned in the story, like the Beumond Republic. All names of characters and countries are entirely made up my me. Some are honestly modified keysmashes, me changing a word until it's not that word anymore, butchered translations, or just cool sounding stuff.

If you'd like any more information on the universe, story plotline, or anything else, feel free to ask! I'd be happy to answer:D

Lazy kid chosen name Laz tells him to just relax isn't all that taking over stressful work

ooh this is kinda interesting.

can you give me any extra information?

A quirky grandmother who likes fast cars at the mechanic.

A contractor/handyperson who used to build apocalypse bunkers for eccentric rich people, but is now without their own bunker (because they thought the whole thing was silly, just wanted to make some money from their expertise).

It's fine, I just found the resemblance funny😅

A young boy wearing a preppy Catholic school uniform. He was scrappy, dusty, and short but has a heart of gold. His name is Ricki.

Ricki is a fifteen year old trying to fend off demons from the Nigh Realm, with a group of youthful demon hunters. His family is dead, outside of his missing sister, so he resides with the demon hunters as his only source of family. His outfit shows signs of wear from the battles the kid had fought in this demon driven hellscape.

Horticulturist with a background in the special forces. Before the apocalypse he swore off violence and moved to the mountains to live off the grid. Now he's trying to find his family (parents, siblings etc. Or children who grew up or whatever) and on his search teaches people how to grow and maintain their own renewable food source.

Thank you!

BRAVO WHAT A STORY

This is how Sovereign Citizens think Law works.

One or more of the following reasons may apply:

• Responses too short: Responses must be at least 100 words. Prompts should encourage a story or poem.

• Simple Question / Simple Answer: You asked a simple question and you're likely to get a simple answer. Responses must be at least 100 words. Prompts should encourage a story or poem.

• Less than 100 words: Word counts on prompts should not be requested for less than 100 words. This means no six-word stories, In words or less, etc.

• Fill-in-the-blank: This is essentially a fill-in-the-blank, or you asked a question likely to generate a simple answer. Responses must be at least 100 words. Prompts should encourage a story or poem.

• Joke Responses / Copypasta: This prompt is phrased like a joke or in such a way that users will reply with jokey comments or copypastas.

• AI-Generated Responses: We do not allow AI-Generated responses, users are expected to write their own new stories and poems

• Previously written content: It is likely users will reply to this prompt with previously written content, which is not allowed. We want to inspire new writing. Go on a new journey, not a journey that has already been made.

• Stories or Poems: Prompts must encourage new stories or poems, but this is likely to attract off topic discussion or otherwise non-story/poem replies

• English: Stories must be in English as we're not able to moderate in other languages. This includes no strings of binary, emoji, wingdings, etc.

• Plagiarism: Writers should write their own work, but this prompt is likely to have them post content written by others. Plagiarism is not allowed and will result in a ban

These not only apply to comments, but also to posts based on the comments they're likely to attract, specifically via Rule 1

and sorry last thing what would the name of this book be? if you cant think of one its fine.

Reminds me of the Choice of Game, Choice of Magics. Magic is suppressed because while, yes, it can do amazing things, casting comes at a cost depending on the school you used. Having unregulated untrained magic users could easily bring about large scale destruction.

Fun, light hearted, adventurous

"Alright kids, settle down I'm about to teach the lesson none of your professors want to you to hear" Already Donzel could see the faculty in attendance begin to scowl at him. "So to start off - what is the purpose of an incantation?"

An annoyingly chipper teacher pleaser hopped to their feet and immediately began to speak. "The purpose of an incantation is to force magical energies into a specific form, these forms having been discovered via trial and error over the centuries."

"Well yes - and no my ignorant little friend. Also next time - wait to be called" The snickering of the other students began to fill the air. "The purpose of an incantation is to invoke a particular mental state - to prime your mind to imagine the effect that is to come. It doesn't cause the magic - it merely helps your unimaginative little ass to conjure it." Kirata walked up to the board and began writing. "Take this incantation for example, it calls to mind imagery of fire gods and burning destruction. It mentions traveling forth. Obviously you all know that this allows you to throw a fireball. But at the end of the day it's all bullshit. A memetic device to prime your brain to do something you can already do. Now watch." He went to front of the class and silently slung a fireball forward.

"See no stupid incantation necessary. Infact the incantation has nothing to do with the magic at all. Watch this." He slung out his hand and began the incantation. "Ignaeus god of the forge, Ventraya goddess of flame, send forth your fiery destruction - FIREBALL!" The fireball did not come however but a thin piercing bolt of flame spewed forth from his hand. "Now early in your education your instructors blew that off as you saying the incantation wrong. But you didn't. Your mind merely evoked a different bit of imagery from the words. You didn't do it wrong - your teachers were just morons."

One of the faculty started to raise an objection but Kirata merely motioned for him to sit down. "It's not their fault. The fact is - most mages are morons. There isn't anything wrong with that - even a moron can be useful. But greatness comes from the mind. From imagination. With war on the rise and dark forces closing in they just aren't up for the task. They are shit combatants. That's why i'm here. The next three weeks I will be evaluating you all on your imagination. Those deemed worthy will be transferred to my new unit. You want to be a big goddamn hero - impress me."

And so the first trial of mages by 2nd Lieutenant Donzel began - marking the start of a new era of magical warfare - an age where mages stopped being tools of the rich, and transitioned to a sad state as weapons of mass destruction.

Preferred writing style? Like the name of an author or a couple adjectives.
