Well again, I was just basing my thoughts off the examples you provided. It could translate over into just about any race/animal, really. To be honest, the sheer amount of things magic affects in a normal fantasy enviroment is staggering; the idea of being at the start of it all is overwhelmimg. Quite a challenge you're presenting to us. I like it. ^^

If you want to move off the beaten trail, as it were, maybe we could pull some of the more obscure peoples/creatures of mythology and redesign them to fit our purposes. I did it for the Travesty RP and it worked out fairly well, in my opinion.

As for as what magic would be impacting...well, pretty much everything. Do we have any idea as to how the magic itself starts?

I'm thinking it would be a ripple effect, strongest at the focal point, then slowly diffusing over the rest of the world. Wherever the focal point is would have the really weird stuff going on, magestorms and the creation of new animals or changing of old ones and all that. Anyone caught within the immediate area would probably end up vastly different from how they started. A person's distance from the focal point determines how strong and how direct the changes are, if any. I imagine some people would have some sort of immunity of varying degrees, while others would be extra vulnerable. Almost like a disease, heh.
