The Exclusion Zone: The Gunsmith 1/5 Bullets: Beastslayer Edition Wanted to make some pictures showing the cool Gunsmith at work, that @panos has introduced in the linked post. Perhaps there's more magic in the Zone, than the Stalkers have noticed until now. 😉 https://budgetpixel.com/p/35356

...continuing reply... @CaylaCatz Despite being a cousin, the wizard has not been met by anyone of the Crew. Even Amalia knows about him only by what SG has told her - but of course, she, being a Multiverse wanderer knows about the reality of magig & magic users.🙂 I think the Gunsmith has some natural affinity for magic and that is handy, but otherwise, you'll never see SG casting spells 🙂

Very cool! I think since the Wizard is a cousin, they might take magic for granted but it's not their ability so they function without it but maybe will use it if a nonmagical person can use it. after all they accepted spidey-lute pretty fast. So it's like language ability? Some people can speak 2 or more languages; and with exposure most people can learn especially when young. But if you only have the 1 language, you learn to get by even if you visit another country. You have other strengths and abilities so it's probably not important to learn 2 or more langauges. Magic might be like that. @panos how does magic work in the Zone . Does it exist in that world or only come in through the rifts? You probably explained it in one of the episodes I missed.
