    That diagram is just heat with extra steps.

    That's what I was thinking. Depending on the supply that'll start a fire.

        I always thought that would be a good style for a dart board. Score would be -dB(return loss)

          That's not a resistor it's actually a BIG LOAD. The diagram would better show it as a reactive load (usually just a rectangle) since most real loads are reactive. Get it?

            It's a basic AC rectifier, the resistor represents an arbitrary DC load. You use similar circuits all the time, though generally with additional failsafes and some mechanism of smoothing out the rectified current.

              I'm not sure if "Dharms" was a typo or a nickname, but that's the first time I've gotten that, and I genuinely like it. Like, what a great nickname. Love it.

                That's what someone who doesn't understand magic would say.

                Follow the spell incorrectly and that is indeed all you would get.

                    I mean, yea. The people designing the AC to DC power supplies often don't care what you use them for, why would they bother putting schematics for a real load on their diagram?

                        That's really cool. I figured it could obviously be done with fission, but I didn't think we could just strip protons out of a nucleus. Cool share

                          Yes, because if you take the power away it stops existing.

                          But if you turn it back on the conscious doesn't return. Electricity is the energy conscious runs on, but it's not consciousness.

                            For me, the weirdest thing is that when a charged particle moves through a magnetic field, it experiences a force perpendicular to the direction of motion; this results in the particle tracing out a curved path through the field. Like ... what the actual fuck? Why in hell would the universe be this way?

                              It's chemicals that make signals jump between neurons in your head. Electricity acts entirely withing single neurons.

                              Also, that's a control spell, not a summoning one.

                                  The trouble is that even the consciousness maintenance needs power. If the power is out for too long the infrastructure is too damaged. So it actually does return when you turn it off. It just has to be done quickly enough.

                                    The mages of Electrical Engineering reseach the tools and formulars to control the magic. The mages of Hardware Engineering develop under great effort the sigils and rituals of how the rocks must be processed. The Warlocks of the CPU use the near infinit possibilities of algorithms and the power of the evolved rocks to create worlds nobody could ever have imagined (in exchange for the ability to go outside).

                                      Hard magic systems are my favourites, usually. The limitations are more interesting than the possibilities.
