3 Basic Magician Types
All magic are based on the concept of [Change].
Differences between black magicians, sorcerers, and normal magicians:
- Normal Magicians: Specialize in elemental and conceptual magic that follows natural laws. Very versatile, but cannot apply attack/debuff magic on living beings directly. Strength relies heavily on creativity and persuasive power of the magician.
- Sorcerers: Masters of curse magic, debuffs, and directly affecting minds/souls of living targets. Expert manipulators and weakeners but lack raw power. Vulnerable to all attacks, but also very strong against all living beings.
- Black Magicians: Wield the most destructive force magic at cost of sanity/health. Can use the sanity/health of other living beings as the cost of magic. Black magic ignores laws of nature. Strong offense and defense but magic is unpredictable, addictive, and has a high degree of failure.
Summary:
1. Normal Magicians:
- Strong elemental/conceptual magic
- Follow natural laws for reliable effects
- Relies heavily on creativity and persuasive power
2. Sorcerers:
- Experts at curses, debuffs, mind control
- Very difficult to directly combat, but the caster is usually very easy to defeat
- Lack variety/power to defeat anything except living beings.
3. Black Magicians:
- Most powerful destructive/defensive magic available
- Magic ignores natural laws
- Power comes at heavy price of sanity/health
- Magic is unpredictable and corrupting
Special Magic (temporary)
# Note: I need some way for Eliza to protect herself, but I am not sure what exactly does she need. So it might change for her.
1. Rune Magic (User: Seer, MC)
- Uses symbols/characters imbued with magical energy
- Runes can be etched, drawn, or constructed into formations
- Formations amplify effects when multiple runes are combined
- Requires study of the mystical language and properties of runes
- Effects depend on arrangement and method of activation
2. Ritual Magic (User: Eliza, ???)
- Powered by formal ceremonies, incantations, and mystic components
- Completion of intricate rituals summons magical forces/effects
- Requires a lot of preparation and concentration to wield potent magic
- Effects are usually spectacular or dramatic compared to other magic
# Note: There are other type of special magic, like Bianca's family's [Holy Magic]. But I am not sure whether these other special magic will even appear in the story, so I don't include them for now.
