[Wrath Of Athena]

There are classical elements, within Nature magic.

[QUOTE="Silent Justice]Elemental spirits

[/QUOTE]
That's what I meant by that. Air, Earth, Fire, Water, etc. In addition to any other primal force of nature you can think of.

 

[Darth Gangsta]

So when are we getting this thing started?

 

[Wrath Of Athena]

Within the week.

 

[StoneWolf18]

Would the type of magic affect the character's physical appearance? Such as someone using air being unusually light, etc.

 

[Wrath Of Athena]

No, it does not.

 

[FullZetsu]

So a sorcery would be accepted alongside another form of magic? Also what classifies as something you're born with, could it also be a natural aptitude for a particular branch of magic, or, the ability to detect magic of a specific form?

 

[Wrath Of Athena]

Sorcery is accepted alongside another form of magic, but usually people focus on one at the expense of the other, if they want to be any good at it. And Sorcery includes any sort of supernatural power you can think of someone being born with, so yes, it could be aptitude towards a certain type of magic.

Here's my CS.


Name: Azzni D'urd-I


Age: 20


Gender: Male


Height: 6 ft 2


Race: Human


Hair: Dark Brown


Magic Specialization: Nature Magic (specifically fire)


Appearance/Armor:

Weapons: Scimitar (Replace the Crusader's Sword with a Scimitar)


Magic: Azure Fire (A powerful blue flame ONLY he knows), Healing


History: Azzni was born in a small town in a desert. He grew up with his older brother and father. Azzni's father was a powerful warrior who had traveled the world, doing good deeds and completing quests. His two sons (Azzni and his brother) were brought up with the values of a fighter and the elder brother was much taller and stronger than his younger sibling. He was only a year older but at a young age his height made him look much more grown up. Azzni was smaller and weaker, he wasn't even as quick as his brother. In his teenage years, he remained as competitive as ever. The older brother despised his sibling calling him a "pathetic" and "weakling". It also didn't help that the mother of the family had passed away during the birth of Azzni. The elder sibling was better at Azzni at almost everything really. Azzni for ever lived in his shadow.


Growing up, Azzni would always train with magic and found that the only way he could hold his ground was being smarter. Azzni would wear light armor (leather, furs etc.) his brother would wear heavy armor (iron, steel etc.). He quite liked the lighter armors and never really had the strength to wear heavy-duty gear for long.


When Azzni was fourteen, his brother was training in the wilderness and during this time a group of thugs decide to invade the family's home. The father had a nice house and he had sold quite the amount of loot during his adventuring days. But the thugs just wanted his weapons and smaller pricey valuables that would be easy to carry. The thugs broke in and the father (while quite old) still put up a hell of a fight. Azzni joined the battle but against a group of five large men, with the element of surprise the two stood no chance. Azzni was smashed aside by the handle of an axe and as he connected with a bookcase and he blacked out.


He woke to his house in a complete mess but worse than that his father was dead. As he went approach his father's recently deceased body his older brother walked in and was absolutely furious. He told him he was a failure and he was going to leave him here and start a new life. The brother became one of the most famous warriors who would not let any tragedies like this ever happen again. He lashed out at him violently and the two had an unarmed fight but it was the older brother who as expected, won. It also didn't help Azzni had already been knocked out and yet again vision faded to black.


He awoke in the house again and began to cry. Azzni called the authorities from the town to clean up the mess and the remains of his father. He then lived in the house, haunted by the memories of his family that were now gone until he eventually hit adulthood and decided to leave.


Azzni traveled to a new province, looking for work but to no avail. He then headed north due to finding more work there. He thought there would be lots of work. He crossed the border and was taken to a village where he was to be executed. Azzni later escapes and discovers the power to create an Azure Flame. Azzni decides to take a goal very similar to that of his brother. He travels around the world and saves people along the way.


Azzni overtime became a master of swordsmanship until eventually, he meets his brother again. When meeting his brother his brother respected him and they make the unanimous decision that there can only be one. The brother has been watching his younger brother years and has known about the Azure Flame. Because of this, his brother taught himself a new spell: The Crimson Bolt. Azzni went up the mountains to defeat his brother and settle their rivalry once and for all. Azzri just barely defeated his brother.


Azzri wishes to be more knowledgeable in the art of magic so he joined the Academy.

 

[Wrath Of Athena]

Whoa! I haven't even come up with a CS yet! Still, that's pretty good. Remember though, to specify what type of magic he uses.

[QUOTE="Silent Justice]Nature magic is gained through speaking with spirits of nature. They might be Death spirits, Elemental spirits, spirits of life, growth, any primordial forces. Most nature mages, or shamans, only have a few at most types of spirits they commune with.
Faith magic is gained from gods, which there are hundreds of. The primary difference between it and nature magic is that priests of all gods can heal those of their faith, and harm others of opposite faiths, in addition to being able to do special magical things to do with their god's purview of stuff.


Sorcery is basically, well, a superpower. It's somethin' yer born with. Super-speed, super-strength, maybe telekinesis, maybe teleportation. Any one person can have a maximum of one Sorcery.


Wizardry is controlling the conversion of energy, matter, and mana between each other. There are three main types; Entropy, Energy, and Force. Energy is taking energy out of things, so it's like freezing something, slowing someone or something down, etc. Energy is putting energy into things, so like shooting fireballs, giving yourself a temporary endurance or speed boost, stuff like that. Force magic is basically just telekinesis.

[Darth Gangsta]

Acceptable?

 

[Wrath Of Athena]

Yes, just specify whether his magic is Learned, Sorcery, or Nature.

 

[Darth Gangsta]

Oh, forgot about that!

 

[Darth Gangsta]

I'm really excited for this RP. (:3)

 

[Wrath Of Athena]

Awesome! Hope you're not the only one who joins it (' :| )

 

[Darth Gangsta]

You should tag all of the people that said interested on this.

 

[AAndroidD]

After looking over the magic system... consider me in. Assuming that I can roleplay as one of the teachers. I have an idea in mind.

 

[9forgotten]
