seeds and bits

i think a thread for general ideas would be good.
please post here capsule ideas that you don't want to develop right now, so that other people might have use to them.

my idea:
The 'midnight marksman' is terrorizing the town- the whole thing started a week ago when constable Hiregaard was found dead.
he was found with a soprised look on his face, which is very likely the result of being shot to death with a crossbow heavy enoth to pierce throh his shield, his chainmail armor AND his ribcage like a dart pierces a piece of paper.
Fact one: the crossbow that shot that bolt would be too large for human sized creators to hold and aim properly.
fact two: Hiregaard's sword was pulled throgh his ('rigor mortis'ed) fist and taken.

The description for spells states that some sorcerers use gestures as mnemonics.
I had a small idea for the gestures for the "mend" spell:
1. Hold out your right hand vertically, pointing up, palm stretched and facing you.
2. Hold the fingers together and turn the palm left - this is the starting position, it represents the broken item.
3. Align the palm with your arm as in step 1 - this is the end position, it represents the mended item.

as you can see, i haven't included any of the "real" BW spell elements, but i leave that to you.

ps. extra points to whomever points out where i "borrowed" this idea from :roll:
