Races:

Humans – the humans.

Kovus – A mountain dwelling race with human-like features. Kovus’s have plates covering their head instead of hairs, along with slender shovel like hands allowing them to dig into the earth. They also have powerful legs that can propel them quickly whether it be for hunting prey or escaping predators.

Gverils – A race with very similar features to humans. The only way to tell them apart is their metallic arm, and the single horn protruding from their forehead. Gverils were a bloodthirsty warring race at one point in history, but have adapted with the changing world.

Aleiths – The nomads of the plains and forests. The Aleiths are born with animalistic features depending on which clan they are from. Such as tails, ears, feathers, claws, long tongues, or in some cases even scales. Although they have adapted as the Gverils did, many ancient clans still keep to their plains and forests—far away from humans.

Derzuls – They aquatic humanoids who spend most of their lives in the water. Their skin is covered in a thin mucus membrane that helps them retain water, allowing them to come out on land for long periods of time. Upon drying up, they become immobilized unless given water.

Mages:

The world is not fair, and some mages are born with a greater capacity for mana than others. These who are gifted with mana upon birth are called mages, and are capable of performing miraculous feats. Powerful mages are in extremely high demand around the world.

A Mage’s power usually manifest around their teens.

5 Ranks of Mages:

Although ranked, mages can ascend past their ranks and be classified differently. While some mages stagnate at certain levels of abilities, many work hard to attain the highest ranks and privileges along with it.

Mahj – the first rank, and where the title of “Mage” comes from.

Mahjs are the lowest of the ranks, and one is automatically classified as a Mahj once they’ve awoke to their magic. Most are weak and lack the abilities of the higher tiers along with mana control. Mahjs are usually taught by a teacher until they’ve at least become a Rujal.

Rujal – the second rank and most common of magicians.

Unlike the Mahj, Rujal's have greater power, but lacks capacity. Rujals are quite adequate at controlling their mana, and are able to use various magics. It is around this stage where nobles send their sons or daughters to the academy.

Raezil – the third rank.

Raezils are powerful magicians who can expertly command their mana, resulting in more powerful spells. It is around this stage where mages contract with elemental spirits to amplify their abilities, and borrow from Lagus.

Malgin – The fourth rank.

Malgins are experts at utilizing their mana to their utmost. Not only can they contract with many elements, becoming a Malgin means that you are one who understands your own magic to its fullest. Malgins are not limited to just using their spirits as channels, but they can also summon their spirits into the physical world as familiars, to do their biddings.

Malizur – The fifth rank and most powerful.

They are the highest order of those born with mana. Favored by the elements at birth, they are gifted with massive capabilities. Malizurs are the rarest of magicians, and are one in a thousand when it comes to mages.

Kings and queens shower them with favors, hoping to win them as allies.

Dvitus – The lost rank.

Stories recall mages of ages past who were not bound by the laws of the world. These mages were people who governed mana, using their great strength to create changes in history. With unlimited power at their disposal, Dvitus can summon the elemental lords themselves into the world to do their biddings. Shaping the world as they see fit, giving life and taking them at a whim. These mages were so feared, that they eventually became legend. Those who know of their might aspires to reclaim this lost title.

SpellBlades:

Warriors who incorporates magic into their fighting styles. Usually due to the love of the sword, spellblades fight using their body as a catalyst for their magic. Putting an emphasis on their physical rather than their magical abilities, spellblades are able to enhance their martial skills that have been cultivated over the years several folds. Though usually with a lower capacity for raw magical output due to their emphasis on swordplay, they are just as deadly as their mage counterparts.

The most powerful of spellblades are those who can utilize both magic and sword to their utmost, and truly invincible spellblades are even known to be capable of cutting through magic.

Zitaal – The first rank.

One who aspires to become a spellblade.

Meaning ‘Bladed One’, it is given to all swordsmen when they awaken to their magic and have chosen to continue pursuing the order of steel. It is also given when a mage turns to the sword and begins their training as a swordsmen.

Vaguln – The second rank.

One who has attained equilibrium of sword and magic. Vaguln’s are those who have proven themselves worthy of the the sword and can adapt their magic into their swordartes.

Raiha – The third rank.

Powerful spellblades who have proven themselves adept on both physical and magical fortes. Able to adapt and use both abilities efficiently even in the heat of combat, Raiha’s lack little beyond the raw magical capabilities of more powerful spellblades.

Martras – The fourth rank.

Achieved only by those who have gone through intense and arduous trainings, martras are knowledgeable in high level magic and are capable of countering mages. Few and far in between the ranks, they are among the strongest of spellblades.

Trusae – The final rank.

Conferred only to those who have achieved the pinnacle of the artes, the rank of ‘Trusae’ entitles the absolute fusion of magic and sword. They are swordartes personified, and are capable of standing up against their Malizur counterparts with sheer skills and knowledge alone.
