"The one part where the demo felt a bit lacking was the plot. Tyrion's special ability could become a very interesting mechanic in the full game and will probably be an important piece of the overall plot, but it also breaks the very first Rule of Magic the game introduces."
One counterpoint: The First Law of Magic introduced is that 'a mage can only cast spells in their compendium'. Multiple different possibilities exist:
- Tyrion's special ability is not a spell
- Tyrion is unaware of his Compendium's existence
I would assume it's the latter, to be honest with you. That would create more interesting evidence for a concrete Turnabout. It's also a fairly ingenious way to hide someone's magic from them at birth.
Still, doesn't break the rules.
