Composing a Magic

How can I make magics?

Magics are casted and invoked through the "Carrier." The "Carrier" is a container of "Elements". "Elements" are pre-installed in the game and cannot be modified (basically). All magics are composed of the mass of these "Elements." On the way of composing magics, at first, the size of carrier must be decided. And at least, an effect element will be needed. Types of elements are varied so much. These are divided into a few categories. Like "Effect", "Targeting", "Movement", "Time" and so on. And these combinations of elements decide the costs and the skill-requirements of the magic. *I have said it on twitter and put it here. :)

I will show up lists of elements below. Now it has not done yet and it'll be growing.
