The Weaving of Cyrno: The Silver Lining

The system of magic

So, in the world of Cyrno, there is magic. Now, this is to explain how it works.
Magic comes from the energy of mana, which everything has. The air is filled with it, and people have found out how to use mana in many ways.
Now, there are multiple groups of people classified how they use this.
Wizards are one who learn spells through studying the spells and can gain more spells by simply having a copy of the spell in their spellbook. Some wizards have remembered spells by memory without the use of a tome. At the end of the day, a Wizard can only use so many spells a day. It depends on how strong the wizard is, and based on how strong they are also means the strength of spells they can cast. This is called spell levels. The basic spells can be casted with no loss of mana and are called cantrips. Now, once spells cost mana, they start at first level spells to ninth level spells. The more powerful a spell, the closer it is to the 9th level. Now, with that level, even the strongest wizards can only cast a ninth level spell once a day. Now, wizards are not the only magic casters. Wizards learn like scholars and can learn more magic over time, but their opposite are Sorcerers.

Sorcerers are gifted magic by their bloodline or freak incidents that give them innate magic. They don't need to learn spells through tomes but just one day know by them getting stronger with being more intune with their blood. They have a big rivalry with the wizards. They call them dumbass book jockeys. But another uses more living magic, and that is the druids.

The druids have a connection to nature that is so close that they learn to use this connection with nature to use magic in a way that most magic casters can't do. They have the ability to make trees help them and have forest spirits help them in battle. The main ability of the druid is the ability to take the shape of many animals without the use of the spell polymorph. This is called the changing. Now the animals they can take the shape of must work with nature. So magical creatures made by wizards like a chimera are not an option for druids since they are not one with nature. Now, another is the Bard

The Bard is like the wizard where they can learn to use magic, but how they use it is where they differ. The bard uses magic through songs, long acted scenes, dancing, or any way that has the use of art with magic. They think magic should go with the art of being creative. Bards are known to be very dramatic and have a reputation that some are horn dogs. If you have a bard on your side, you will know they have some of the best buffing magic that is around without going to a god.

One of the last pure spellcasters is Warlocks. They are people who have made a pact with a being of magical might that can be a patron. The patron can make any bargain with the Warlock so long as Warlock agrees. Now they don't gain the most magical spells, but the biggest benefit is the ability to gain their mana back faster than other spellcasters.

So that is the basic overview of Spellcaster in the world of Cyrno. Next info dump will be the ones who follow the path of using physical power instead.
