Appearance

They look like your normal human beings, and for the most part, they’re just humans. They tend to be on the taller side, averaging 7’0” for males (called Wizards) and 6’0” for females (called Witches). They can be identified by their markings that cover their whole body, most often their arms, torso, and legs. The theme and color of them depending on the type of magic they specialize in. Their eyes and hair can be any one color but are the same color (example: green eyes and green hair). Half mages (people with only one Mage parent) normally either have markings or matching hair and eye color.

Abilities

The Mage can learn four different types of Magic: Destruction, Restoration, Alteration, and Illusion. Every Mage starts at a single point, no matter if they were born a Mage or were a human that became one. In order to get stronger, they must train. It is possible to specialize in more than one of the four types of magic, but it is extremely difficult to be proficient.


 * Destruction - Destruction focuses on the sheer damage a Mage can do. They can control elements such as lightning, fire, and water. The most common type of Mage, Destruction Mages are arguably the strongest of the Mage types.


 * Restoration - Restoration, commonly known as healing magic, is the ability to repair damaged things. A Restoration Mage can restore damaged items to their original conditions. This can be from objects just like broken items to living things, although the former is much easier as compared to the ladder. Most Restoration mages are repairmen, doctors, and nurses.


 * Alteration - Alteration is the ability to change the physical and chemical properties of non-living and living objects. Unlike Illusion, the objects have their properties changed to be into something else. Alteration magic is essentially editing the existing code into creating something new. This is limited, however, by the law of equivalent exchange.


 * Illusion - Illusion Mages can create false projections to confuse their opponents. The illusions that they can create can appear to be real, but once the illusion is broken, the Mage can lose their power temporarily. Illusions do not change the properties of an object and said object is still false.
