V* (Magical ability/voodoo)

Dragons, of course, have a lengthy association with magic, and many of them are practitioners themselves. Wyrm's site says, “Magical prowess is often associated with dragons, not least in the ability to shape change or to ride the winds, but in other forms as well. This tag indicates how adept you are in the arcane arts.”

Standard spectrum

The baseline of this spectrum is a simple lack of magical ability. While the plusses are obvious, the minuses may not be; they describe someone who not only cannot do magic themselves, but passively interfere with its functioning around them. It should be noted that this is not the same as someone who actively uses magic to interfere with or prevent other magic (ex. V– vs. V++[anti-magic]).

V+++!

I have reached the pinnacle of my profession.

V+++

I'm reasonably adept in my field.

V++

I know a number of spells.

V+

I can perform a few cantrips with candles.

V

Magic is something I've never really looked into.

V-

Magicians worry when I'm near.

V--

Most magic seems to fail when I'm nearby!

V---

Only a few spells seem to have an effect, but that could just be psychological.

V---!

Magic? What's that?

Modifiers

[field]

If you have a particular specialty, it can be enclose in square brackets after the rest of the tag. For example, V++[fire] indicates “I know a number of spells of fire magic.”
