You enroll at a school designed to teach Witches and Warlocks. |
| Welcome students! to the Academy of Thaumatology and Arcane Practices for Witches and Warlocks, or Arcane Academy for short. Every school at a high-school level or above teaches some level of magic, but what makes Arcane Academy different is how it produces some of the most powerful Warlocks and Witches in the world! Of course the school still teaches things such as math, history, chemistry and P.E. which are all required for a decent level of magic as well. Just a couple of rules before we start. >please use your best grammar, I have a low tolerance for 1337 (ex. lol, jk, omg, etc.) but minor spelling/grammatical errors are usually fine. >as per the usual for my stories, Romance is allowed and actually is encouraged, just remember that this is not an erotica. >Try not to make chapters too short and please keep it interesting. >Keep the story going! No adding any chapters that will end the story. >No adding any non-original characters, such as Naruto or Sailor Moon This story takes place on earth and history still works out relatively the same way, such as JFK's assassination still happened but this time there really was a magic bullet! Unlike my previous story, this one allows for the lead to be Male OR Female rather than just having a Male lead. Also, monsters exist and are hunted professionally by mages. Jobs can be taken between classes. Anything from Janitorial duties to Monster hunting jobs. Magical power is drawn from both the mage, and the environment. Water based spells are more powerful around watery areas, such as lakes or rivers; While Earth magic is more powerful in the mountainous areas of the world. However, A strong enough mage could still create a powerful fire based spell even while underwater. But that requires near-mastery. The schools of magic include, but are not limited to, Pyromancy (Heat magic), Aquamancy (Water control/purification magic), Auramancy (Magic specifically drawn from a mage), Photomancy (Light magic), and so on. There's no such thing as Cryomancy. In fact, Pyromancers have control over things such as ice because in science cold does not exist, it is merely the lack of heat. Since Pyromancers can control the temperature around them, they can also do things such as create ice around them. The same rule applies to photomancers, while darkness does not exist but instead is a lack of light and they can control the amount of light in the area and in turn retract light to create darkness. Yay Science! Also, because of the required understanding for most magics to work, there are very few spells and incantations that surpass scientific knowledge. Originally, during the middle ages when magic was becoming more and more frequent, mages were the scholars and would record the different effects of different magics. As scientific abilities advanced over time there was a greater understanding of how magic tied in to everything. Pretty soon after that, science was used to understand the world around us with calculated results, rather than magic which, without proper understanding, would be chaotic and dangerous. Scientific studies would be used to understand the world and then the new formed knowledge would be translated into terms that could be understood and used by mages. Long story short, if we can't understand it with scientific point of view and understanding, it is extremely difficult to replicate it with magic. *UPDATE* Weapons such as swords, staves, guns, etc. will be commonplace at Arcane Academy, as a good mage always has a backup plan. Monsters may not be effected by certain types of magic, but a bullet or a hard edge will almost always hurt, and some weapons may even be enchanted for added affect. Please enjoy. Feel free to ask questions! If you don't understand something about the world or are curious about the different possibilties, send me an E-mail to my on-site inbox. I'll answer anything to the best of my abilities. In fact, if you have a question and I wouldn't know how to answer, or if it's a question to something that I haven't thought up yet, I will make an addition to the world to make it make as much sense as possible. Ask away! |
