This is how Billy ended up with his trademark staff and the ability to summon lightning.

Meta

Plotrunner: Matt

Billy and A Kind of Magic were a over a year and a half in development. Cai originally started Matt thinking about the character back in February of 2011. He took a several month hiatus due to RL, but he continued to mull over the character and backstory until he finally returned to XP in Summer 2012.

The idea behind A Kind of Magic sparked from the Song Titles Plot List, when Matt thought challenging Amanda would be a fun way to get Billy into the game. The end result is a mashup of that idea and Marvel!Billy’s backstory, which would have been way too strange for XP. So thanks to whoever originally had the idea for High Wizard of Manhattan!
