beccaelizabethBeen reading magic books some more.
Not RPG this time.
It makes me laugh to see a chaos magic book going on in great depth about how it's all really Quantum. Because really, do we need another paradigm? The point of the points is they all work. How and why is a question of what tools you're using.
And there's a section on an organisation for chaos mages. A hierarchical, tiered, structured, initiatory organisation. the mind, it do boggle. Though I can see a place for the role of official insubordinate, I can't so much see anyone giving it up. Leastwise, not chaotes as I imagine them.
Whyfor people want there to be bosses? Why being told what to do and how? Figuring that, having much power.
Book was full of stuff no more authoritative than a self help guide from the fluffy psych section, but taking itself rather more seriously.
It also suggested taping sigils to your partner's forehead. So you can concentrate on them.
did I mention the bogglement? And also, LOL.
