Magic

From Lunatara Wiki

In Lunatara, magic is a source of energy that can be found all around the world. In order to use the magic to form a spell, the user must learn to shade the magical energy to his will. This training can take many years, and will still only allow him to use basic spells. In order to manipulate the energy to create spells of various types something must be used as a medium to allow the caster to do so. The most common medium to use is a Marble, which is either used briefly as a held item temporarily giving the power or by devouring it, allowing the caster to permanently manipulate the energy while the marble grows stronger and stronger inside its host allowing him to use it even to further extent.

History of Magic

Magic was first discovered by Dark Elves, who studied it carefully some years before the Elven Wars began. Djring that time, they discovered great magic which still is unknown to the other races,and only a portion of what they learned was taught to the Wood Elves. As the Elven Wars began, magic was what gave the Dark Elves the upper hand in battle, but as the gods began walking the earth and the Wood Elveswas first to learn to use Marbles, and shifted the war to become a long and stable war between the two races. Ever since then, each god has evolved their own school of magic and spread it around the world.

Magic as a living Energy

Magic is a living energy of sort. Not like a true living being, but magic can choose to make decisions if the suroundings allow it to. Some examples that prove magic to be living is items with a free will that is able to speak to their masters, like Brisinagram. In these cases, the energy has learned to channel their wills through to its wielder using the weapon as a medium for its actions. Some items can even force their owner to do certain actions, like the Pappenheimer Althiril uses forces him to block incoming attacks. This does not however mean he will automaticaly block any incoming attack, just that he will always be aware of a incoming strike and try to block it.

Elementals

Someone who has learned to use spells is called a Elemental. At first the caster will be totaly different from a true Elemental Monster, which spawn in the footssteps of other gods. But after growing more and more powerful in its magic, the Elemental will notice subtle changes in his own biology, which grows bigger and bigger as they grow stronger. These changes involve the caster to slowly gain the same strength and weaknesses a true Elemental monster has against spells. Another change that come up at later stages is that the casters body will take on the aspect of its Spell School in battle, like a Fire Magic user will burst into flames in battle, and a Nature Magic user will be surounded by winds and lightning.

Magic Feats

A elemental can personalize their spells by learning magic feats. Some of these feat are learned automatically at certain skill levels, like those that make you take on the aspect of your school, but most of them require the Elemental to train hard to aquire the feat. These feats can allow him to do things with spell he normaly would not, like allowing him to move slightly while casting his spells or making the spell speachless countering any silencing effects.

Spell Schools

There are two kinds of spell schools, elemental and ulility, and a magic user can only learn one of each school. Also by learning to use two spell schools, you can also learn to use and create combination spells by adding a elemental and utility school. The elemental schools are fire, nature, water and earth. Together with the utility schools, illusion, enchantment, holy and dark, this makes a total of eight basic magic schools. But there are also some special schools of magic which works differently than the normal ones. These include Vocalization, Psi and Arcane.

Each school of spells have certain effects against other elementals, like increased, decreased or nullified damage and/or effect.

This particular energy is constantly in contact with the Dark Soul himself, which feeds it making it vastly superior to other magical energies. All spells of this schools are superiors so any other spell school(except Arcane Magic), but the use of them always comes with costs. A common cost is the shortening of ones own life-span, which will not be noted until ater several years of use, while some have immediate losses in various forms like loss of HP or a debuffor some sort.

Each rune has three powers, target, effect, and power and depending on which order is used different spells are used. All of these runes can be found in different places around the world, and in order to fully use the most powerful spells the elemental needs to find these and learn them. Vocalization spells are associated with the Dark Soul, who created it in the momment before his insanity in order to allow his minions to destroy him in case he would go beserk on the Lunatara Continent. The most special attribute if these spells are that they have a large effect on godly creatures, and is therefore a sought after spell school when facing demi-gods in particular.
