Magik

Magik at a Glance

Magik is divided in to two pools, essence and mana. Essence magik is referred to as Elemental magik as it is consumed when using elemental control over a specific element. Not all individuals can wield an element, and those that do must be careful as using too much can "exert" themselves and lose their own life. Mana magik is referred to as Arcana magik as it is consumed when using magik that doesn't belong to any element and can simply be used to manipulate the world. All individuals are believed to be able to wield this type of magik, but training must be done to use it effectively.

Arcana has two specialized groups of magik known as Ether and Hex, but is called Arcane if the spell does not fit any group neatly. Ether magik is known as healing magik and used to heal wounds and injuries. Hex magik is known as "debuff" magik as it causes victims to fall to curses.

Elemental has many recongized and distinct elements, though enough training could cause some overlapse in elemental control. These elements are Pyro (Fire), Mar (Water), Gale (Air), Terra (Earth), Natura (Nature), Dark, Light, Ice, Psionic (Psychic), Illusio (Spirit), Crimson (Blood), Charge (Electric), Stone, [and more, I've misplaced my notes atm]. Elements that can have overlap are typically the ones that share one of the five pillars of elements: Fire, Water, Air, Terra, and Nature.

The Magik Society

A network to establish "towers" of magik that spans the globe and recognizes each "tower" as a representative of magik housing. The Tower of Nexus and Library of Alexandria are chapters of this society.

The Tower of Nexus

A magik tower located near the largest nexus point in North America, it's ran by Head Chancellor Leonardo "Leo" Midas and other chancellor members of the high ranking officials. The tower was not built on the exact location to the nexus because previous attempts caused the tower to crumble due to the dense well of magik present at the location. Thee nexus location is fenced off and no one but high ranking officials may step foot on its grounds. A town surrounds the tower where residental and shopping districts occupy, and has a train on its southwest town border.

The tower works with a ranking system that goes from rank F to A (FA) and then S to Z (SZ). The FA ranks are considered "college" ranks and are individuals who are still learning how to perform magik. The SZ ranks are "professionals" who go out in the world and perform their magik as a representative of the Tower. Z ranks in particular are the elites who directly serve the chancellors and their tasks.

The Library of Alexandria

An underground outstretched library dedicated to the ideology of the original library of the same name, this library is one of the most most highly rated and respected of their field. Members of the library are called librarians who have many jobs from all over the academic field such as archaeologists to zoologists. Any time a book is published, a copy is brought to the library as thee information super center.
