@@DustMonkey92 Adding to this, as you age you stop having as many genuinely "new" experiences, which causes your brain to "gloss over" much of your day-to-day life, causing you to feel like time is moving faster. That's why it's so important as people age for them to continue to be active and try new things so their brain registers new memories, as doing so helps against Alzheimers. This is also why you remember your childhood summer vacations as lasting much, much longer than they felt like as you got older, because everything is "new" when you're a kid which means each day feels different, thus causing you to reflect back on those memories with more clarity and giving the experience of them being "longer" than the days when you're older and a lot of the day-to-day is monotonous or repetitive.

It's actually really interesting that Matt should compare dunamancy to being a chess player. I bet he's aware of the drow's favorite pastime Sava, which is a chess-ish game. But once, ONCE per game, you can roll a die (i forget how many sides). If that die lands on the symbol of a spider, the player gets to move one of the opponents pieces.

Parallel invention seems a bit...weird when centered around a form of probability magic. I just discovered Critical Role and I've been hooked. I used to play other RPGs, GM'd some campaigns or wrote the central stories for others to use, even created a simple one with one of my brothers--partly because my oldest brother never really let us play D&D with him and his friends. Still, I recall reading all manuals as a kid--I loved the Deities and Demigods one most, I think. Now, thanks to quarantine, I will finally get a chance to try it. Having discovered Critical Role and Matt Mercer, I find that he's created an entire system of magic that is very similar to the 'magic' I dreamed up for a series of short stories I worked on ages ago. Being able to manipulate probability, backward and forward in time, so that this sort of Heisenbergian chess of cause-and-effect could be played out between rival adepts. And here I find him describing a magical system that includes that (and much more, of course.) Marvelous. And this is just one of many synchronicities pulling me toward this game. Weird but compelling little coincidences and events keep making me want to learn the game, and relearn GMing, more and more. And so why not, right?

Thank you, KZfaq, for finally recommending something amazing! Given that my campaign is run through D&D Beyond and is set in the Tal'dorei world, this is just about perfect! I was hesitant to allow my players to travel outside the continent, but now this opens a whole new area to play in. We don't have any wizards in the group, but we do have a bard and a sorcerer, so I'm hoping they'll be interested in taking some dunamancy spells once this is released and we add it to our game.

I imagine these spells are also inspired by the Time, Thought, & Numbers Sphere spells in the O.G. Tome of Magic, alongside the Dimensionalist Wizard subclass from back in the day. Having these highly thematic spells ties to a settings lore makes a lot of sense.

I started a homebrew Chronomancer but it's not as intense as i'd hoped, so I'm really pumped to incorporate more Dunemancy into her repertoire as someone from a legacy of people with ancient time/reality magics.

I haven't seen the spell list yet, but I love the idea of magical probability alteration. Removing cause from effect, for example, or action from reaction, etc. Law of attraction based spells could be cool too, where you make it more likely that something you want will happen to or around you, for better or worse.

I would like to see the return of some of the old 2e spells that sound like Dunamancy (but were previously called "Wild Magic") spells like Alternate Reality, Nahal's Reckless Dweomer, There/Not There (aka "Schrödinger's Spell"), Waveform, Wildstrike, Hornung's Random Dispatcher, etc.

Imagine the energy given off from Scanlan’s counterspell against Vecna? If that counterspell wasn’t done then the future would be much darker. The energy you would get from that in Dunamancy would be HUGE. 😗
