By utilizing the freed air from the Aether Aeromancers | First seen in the high elven cities and later on spreading and adapting to other cultures, Aeromancy, commonly referred to as Air Magic, is a unique form of magic. By utilizing the freed air from the Aether, Aeromancers can create strong winds and electric currents and even storms through simple means. However, while such may be the case, it is also a fairly dangerous form of magic, as the spell can easily be turned against the user or even backfire on them. | ||

When Eden was first formed, the force of its creation created an aftershock that became the | When Eden was first formed, the force of its creation created an aftershock that became the first wind. This wind carried arcane energy across the land of Eden and still lingers high in the sky above. Aergusta, Primordial of the Wind, was the first to harness this magic and spent time surveying her domain, the Aether. Therefore, she rarely journeys to Eden, and when she does, she brings with her great powerful storms and gales. Mortals have marked her appearance as the beginning of the Amber Dawn when the leaves drift from their branches on ghostly breezes, and the world cools. | ||
The Elven Settlements were the first to encounter the | The Elven Settlements were the first to encounter the possibility of utilizing the winds of the Aether while also creating discharges in the form of lighting, with several different effects and traits. Due to the elven propensity for magical study, many of their scholars tried to connect primary forms of magic to create powerful forms. Motivations included use in future wars or even augmented into their daily lives. | ||
== Learning and Teaching == | == Learning and Teaching == | ||
Utilizing high mountain tops the students of Aeromancy undergo | Utilizing high mountain tops, the students of Aeromancy undergo strict and harsh training. Usually brought to the very top of a mountain by their teacher, the students are tasked to meditate for multiple days in a cold and harsh environment. Such a situation is already seen as pretty harsh, yet the teachers often do training lessons during stormy days, making it life-threatening to stay at the top of a mountain. However, while such horrible conditions are raging around the student, they can experience the ever-changing winds around them, allowing them to dip into the aetherial realm for the first time. | ||
After dipping into the realm for the first time, the student will start their studies of the wind flows in the realm of Eden, learning about the multiple weather phenomena and how to use their newfound power to defend themselves. The teacher can teach their student up to 2 levels under their own. So only level 5 or higher teachers can train their students to level 3. | |||
To reach level one, a teacher needs to have at least four sessions with their student, each being at least sixty minutes long. To obtain level two, the student must have another four lessons of sixty minutes. To finally reach level three and the ability to teach magic themselves, the students need to have another set of four sessions, each with a length of sixty minutes. Each day one session can be held by the teacher and student pair. After finally reaching level three, the student doesn't require additional sessions and will reach level four automatically after some time of self-studying the magic. The first level requires a bonding trial to empower the spellcaster. These trials are usually done at or around the Hallowed Grounds of the magic type that is considered sacred by all those who practice that elemental art. Bonding trials are events of big importance to the mage as they represent their progress and path to attain the true mastery over their element. | |||

After choosing a path, the spellcaster will automatically increase in level if they can show proof of self-study. The caster can level up once every IC year or twice if that year is their primal season. Lilith's Veil is the primal season for aeromancy. | |||

== Limitations == | |||
{| | Aeromancy is often seen as a fairly unique form of magic, as many of its spells utilize what is usually invisible; The air and wind. Due to this, most spells of Aeromancy are only capable of causing blunt damage or knockbacks in their active state. However, while such may be the case, the passive effects of the magic shouldn't be overlooked, as the gusts of air can cause whole chain reactions to take place instead. | ||
== Bodily Changes == | |||
=== Tempestacy === | |||
==== Mandatory ==== | |||
Because of a tempestamancer's connection to the outer storms of Aether, they experience a subtle yet transformative shift. They become lighter of weight, allowing them to maybe float a little above the ground, them being carried on streaks of wind. | |||
==== Optional ==== | |||
Being connected to the outer storms of the realm can leave its marks on the mage's appearance. Eyes can transition to hues of yellow and blue, capturing the vibrant colors of lightning's dance. Veins near the surface of their skin manifest in a blue, lightning-like pattern, evoking the electric currents they now wield. Their hair takes on shades reminiscent of crackling lightning, further mimicking a tempest. The presence of a Tempestacer also tends to make the air within a room either thicker or thinner. | |||
They are also more energetic, but sometimes also very impulsive. | |||
=== Lunarmancy === | |||
==== Mandatory ==== | |||
The height of a Lunarmancer fluctuates by as much as 10 centimeters depending on the time of day. | |||
==== Optional ==== | |||
By being more connected to the moon and the night, the mage's physical form shifts subtly. Eyes can transform into galaxies of color, capturing the cosmic mysteries of the night sky. Hair can gain a cosmic shimmer, akin to stardust woven through their strands, allowing them to become a beacon of celestial allure in the dark. | |||
A Lunarmancer is critical, often highly intelligent, and questions everything. They often possess a strong sense of duty and are naturally curious. They also tend to grow more calm and quiet. | |||
== Spells == | |||
{{MagicPathSpellOverview | |||
|Path = Base | |||
|Spells = | |||
{{Spell | |||
|Name = Wind Blast | |||
|Desc = The Wind Blast Spell allows the caster to invoke an incantation that summons a blast of concentrated air that can be fired at any target within sight of the Mage. Not only is this an extremely long-ranged projectile, but the spell is also entirely invisible, meaning that the projectile cannot be seen before striking its target.

|Range = 20 meters | |||
|Damage = The caster rolls a D5 to see how strong the impact of the blast is. The target takes double the roll result in knockback. | |||
|Fail = The attack isn't able to reach the target or misses the target, resulting in losing this attack. | |||
|Succ = Instead of rolling a D5, the caster rolls 2d4. The knockback is triple the total roll result. | |||
|RedLines = This spell does not damage the target, it does however forcibly disengage players that are pushed outside of melee range. | |||

{{Spell | |||
|Name = Wind Tunnel | |||
|Desc = The caster blows a giant gust of continuous wind in front of them, toppling anyone caught in its wake. This spell can potentially hit multiple people, blowing them back many blocks, but it won’t cause any damage to the targets. Thus, this spell is best used defensively to put distance between the caster and their targets in a wide-open area. | |||
|Level = 2 | |||
|Casting = 13 | |||
|Range = 10 meters | |||

|Succ = The spell lasts for the maximum amount of rounds. | |||

}} | |||
{{Spell | |||
|Name = Wind Bound | |||
|Desc = The caster creates a nearly invisible string of circulating air, which is as strong as steel but very lightweight, binding the target. | |||
|Level = 2 | |||
|Casting = 14 | |||
|Range = 10 blocks | |||
|Damage = The caster creates a string of thin air, tossed around a target, binding them for 2 rounds. | |||
Once bound, the caster cannot use its arms to attack. They may still defend but not with a shield. | |||
Once bound, the target can attempt to break free by rolling a D20 intelligence. If the value rolled is higher than the casting value of the spell, the player breaks free. A 17+ intelligence roll will always free the target from being bound, no matter what the casting roll was. | |||
|Fail = The circulating air fails to manifest to the caster's will, as a small gust of wind blows forth instead. | |||
|Succ = The bound stays for D2+2 rounds instead of 2 rounds. | |||
|RedLines = The caster cannot cast any other spells if this spell is still active. | |||

|Damage = After a successful cast, a caster has to roll a D3 to determine how many whirlwinds they summon. Afterwards, they can use the rolled amount of whirlwinds to help allied or their own ranged projectiles. If they do so, they must declare they did before the missile was fired and may choose one of the following effects: | |||
1. Forward Gust: Double the range of the missile attack. | |||
2. Downward Gust: The damage of the missile attack is +2 if successful. | |||
3. Guiding Gust: Increase attack rolls for the projectile by 2 | |||
|Fail = Control of the winds is lost, making the whirlwinds dissolve, some blowing in the caster's face, making them unable to move during their next round. | |||
|Succ = Instead of rolling a D3, the caster may roll a D3+2 to determine the number of available whirlwinds. | |||
|RedLines = This spell cannot be used on magical projectiles. Only 1 of the same effect may be applied to a the same projectile. Multiple of different effects may be applied to the same projectile. | |||
}} | |||

|Casting = 20 | |||
|Range = Selfcast | |||
|Damage = The caster creates an evergrowing tornado that moves with the caster, they serve as the eye of the storm. The tornado starts at a 5 meter radius; with every round, it holds up and expands by 5 additional meters. The tornado lasts for 5 rounds. Any creature within the tornado's range is sucked into its center to the caster, skipping their turns via strong air currents while the tornado stays active; they can still defend themselves. After the spell ends, all creatures within are scattered to random places (roll a D20 to see how many meters knockback they take).

After the tornado has gained a range of 15 blocks, it will start sucking up parts of buildings and foliage around the caster. | |||

|Range = 15 meters | |||
|Damage = Before casting, the caster must choose between two effects: | |||

|Fail = The moonlight dims in the caster's hand, falling apart into nothing but remnants of stardust. | |||
|Succ = The Irradiate effect's base damage will be a guaranteed total of 3, while the Illuminate effect's radius increases to 6x6. | |||
|RedLines = The Illuminate effect is incapable of inflicting damage, even to voidal beings. The effect is also ended when the caster casts another spell. | |||
}} | |||
{{Spell | |||
|Name = Moonlit Veil | |||
|Desc = Lunarmancers can create a thin veil of magical essence around themselves using their newly found bond with the moon. Said veil would remind onlookers of a silky-sheer veil of stars and constellations. Upon entering the veil, a person's natural healing capabilities are seemingly strengthened, allowing wounds to close faster than usual and stopping any existing bleeding within the veiled area. | |||

|Casting = 14 | |||
|Range = 5 meters | |||
|Damage = Everyone within the veil heals 1 HP per 2 rounds that they are in the veil. | |||

|RedLines = Indefinite Hallowed Ground areas need to be marked by an RP-Sign. The magical item needs to be marked by a secondary sign stating that it pulsates with magical energy. The item can't be removed from its original position, else the effect of the Hallowed Grounds will vanish. The magical item must be accessible. | |||
Only two Hallowed-Grounds can be cast per (one) tile. Per Lunarmancer, only three Hallowed-Ground maximum can be cast at a time. | |||

Aeromancy | |
---|---|
Classification | Elemental Magic |
Energy Source | Aether, the realm of the nine Winds |
Casting Method | Catalyst - Opal Gem |
Additional Paths | Lunarmancy · Tempestacy |
First seen in the high elven cities and later on spreading and adapting to other cultures, Aeromancy, commonly referred to as Air Magic, is a unique form of magic. By utilizing the freed air from the Aether, Aeromancers can create strong winds and electric currents and even storms through simple means. However, while such may be the case, it is also a fairly dangerous form of magic, as the spell can easily be turned against the user or even backfire on them.
History
When Eden was first formed, the force of its creation created an aftershock that became the first wind. This wind carried arcane energy across the land of Eden and still lingers high in the sky above. Aergusta, Primordial of the Wind, was the first to harness this magic and spent time surveying her domain, the Aether. Therefore, she rarely journeys to Eden, and when she does, she brings with her great powerful storms and gales. Mortals have marked her appearance as the beginning of the Amber Dawn when the leaves drift from their branches on ghostly breezes, and the world cools.
The Elven Settlements were the first to encounter the possibility of utilizing the winds of the Aether while also creating discharges in the form of lighting, with several different effects and traits. Due to the elven propensity for magical study, many of their scholars tried to connect primary forms of magic to create powerful forms. Motivations included use in future wars or even augmented into their daily lives.
Learning and Teaching
Utilizing high mountain tops, the students of Aeromancy undergo strict and harsh training. Usually brought to the very top of a mountain by their teacher, the students are tasked to meditate for multiple days in a cold and harsh environment. Such a situation is already seen as pretty harsh, yet the teachers often do training lessons during stormy days, making it life-threatening to stay at the top of a mountain. However, while such horrible conditions are raging around the student, they can experience the ever-changing winds around them, allowing them to dip into the aetherial realm for the first time.
After dipping into the realm for the first time, the student will start their studies of the wind flows in the realm of Eden, learning about the multiple weather phenomena and how to use their newfound power to defend themselves. The teacher can teach their student up to 2 levels under their own. So only level 5 or higher teachers can train their students to level 3.
To reach level one, a teacher needs to have at least four sessions with their student, each being at least sixty minutes long. To obtain level two, the student must have another four lessons of sixty minutes. To finally reach level three and the ability to teach magic themselves, the students need to have another set of four sessions, each with a length of sixty minutes. Each day one session can be held by the teacher and student pair. After finally reaching level three, the student doesn't require additional sessions and will reach level four automatically after some time of self-studying the magic. The first level requires a bonding trial to empower the spellcaster. These trials are usually done at or around the Hallowed Grounds of the magic type that is considered sacred by all those who practice that elemental art. Bonding trials are events of big importance to the mage as they represent their progress and path to attain the true mastery over their element.
Level Increase | Required Sessions | Req .Session Length |
Lvl 0 to Lvl 1 | 2 Sessions | Event at Hallowed Grounds |
Lvl 1 to Lvl 2 | 4 Sessions | 60 Minutes. Proof in lore ticket. |
Lvl 2 to Lvl 3 | 4 Sessions | 60 Minutes. Proof in lore ticket. |
Lvl 3 to Lvl 4 | Self-study. Show proof of self-study in lore ticket 3 times. | |
Lvl 4 to Lvl 5 | Self-study. Show proof of self-study in lore ticket 4 times. | |
Lvl 5 to Lvl 6 | 1 Session | Event at Hallowed Grounds |
Lvl 6 to Lvl 7 | Self-study. Show proof of self-study in lore ticket 6 times. | |
Lvl 7 to Lvl 8 | Self-study. Show proof of self-study in lore ticket 8 times. | |
Lvl 8 to Lvl 9 | Self-study. Show proof of self-study in lore ticket 10 times. | |
Lvl 9 to Lvl 10 | 1 Session | Event at Hallowed Grounds |
After choosing a path, the spellcaster will automatically increase in level if they can show proof of self-study. The caster can level up once every IC year or twice if that year is their primal season. Lilith's Veil is the primal season for aeromancy.
Bonding trials are still required to level up between certain levels as seen above with "event". For more information about self-study, check the magic rules page.

Limitations
Aeromancy is often seen as a fairly unique form of magic, as many of its spells utilize what is usually invisible; The air and wind. Due to this, most spells of Aeromancy are only capable of causing blunt damage or knockbacks in their active state. However, while such may be the case, the passive effects of the magic shouldn't be overlooked, as the gusts of air can cause whole chain reactions to take place instead.
Bodily Changes
Tempestacy
Mandatory
Because of a tempestamancer's connection to the outer storms of Aether, they experience a subtle yet transformative shift. They become lighter of weight, allowing them to maybe float a little above the ground, them being carried on streaks of wind.
Optional
Being connected to the outer storms of the realm can leave its marks on the mage's appearance. Eyes can transition to hues of yellow and blue, capturing the vibrant colors of lightning's dance. Veins near the surface of their skin manifest in a blue, lightning-like pattern, evoking the electric currents they now wield. Their hair takes on shades reminiscent of crackling lightning, further mimicking a tempest. The presence of a Tempestacer also tends to make the air within a room either thicker or thinner.
They are also more energetic, but sometimes also very impulsive.
Lunarmancy
Mandatory
The height of a Lunarmancer fluctuates by as much as 10 centimeters depending on the time of day.
Optional
By being more connected to the moon and the night, the mage's physical form shifts subtly. Eyes can transform into galaxies of color, capturing the cosmic mysteries of the night sky. Hair can gain a cosmic shimmer, akin to stardust woven through their strands, allowing them to become a beacon of celestial allure in the dark.
A Lunarmancer is critical, often highly intelligent, and questions everything. They often possess a strong sense of duty and are naturally curious. They also tend to grow more calm and quiet.
Spells
Base Spells
Wind Blast | |
The Wind Blast Spell allows the caster to invoke an incantation that summons a blast of concentrated air that can be fired at any target within sight of the Mage. Not only is this an extremely long-ranged projectile, but the spell is also entirely invisible, meaning that the projectile cannot be seen before striking its target. The downside of the Wind Blast is that it doesn't do much damage. | |

Level | 1 |
Casting Value | 10 |

Critical Success | The effect is strengthened and adds 4 meters instead of 2. |

Critical Success | The blast of wind is particularly strong, blowing back all targets back and letting them take 2 damage on the way. |
Red Lines | Anyone blown back by this spell will have their movement stopped if there is at least one block in their path, meaning if there is a wall or obstruction in the way, they will be knocked against it and not through it. Hills do not count as obstructions. |

1. Forward Gust: Double the range of the missile attack. 2. Downward Gust: The damage of the missile attack is +2 if successful. 3. Guiding Gust: Increase attack rolls for the projectile by 2 |
Critical Failure | Control of the winds is lost, making the whirlwinds dissolve, some blowing in the caster's face, making them unable to move during their next round. |

Illuminate. The caster conjures an orb of moonlight in the palm of their hand, acting as a torch that lights up a 4x4 radius. The resulting light also has the ability to pierce through magical darkness. This lasts until the caster cancels the spell. Irradiate. Upon succeeding, an orb of moonlight launches itself towards one target, causing 1d3 damage. If the target in question is a voidal being, an extra 1d2 is added to the damage. |

The target will stay asleep for 3 rounds and then automatically wake up. Nightmare: The target takes D2 damage per round of being touched, unable to go beyond 1 HP remaining. The caster and target can't move, block or attack until the caster cancels the spell. The target will wake up as soon as the caster lets go of them. The target can attempt to wake up from the nightmare by rolling Intelligence against the spell's casting roll at the start of their turns. Rolling higher than said casting roll lets the target wake up and use their turn. A 17+ intelligence roll will always cause the target to wake up. |
Critical Failure | The caster gets a backlash from touching the person, getting an incredible headache, and having a -2 modifier on intelligence rolls for the next 3 rounds. |

The caster can instead choose to bind the spell to an artifact which causes the range to extend to a 15 meter radius. The artifact must be reachable IRP and marked with an RP sign. The caster can make a casting of Hallowed Grounds indefinite via Gamemaster Supervision, so long as they are outside of CRP and fulfill a lengthy ritual at night. |

Red Lines | Indefinite Hallowed Ground areas need to be marked by an RP-Sign. The magical item needs to be marked by a secondary sign stating that it pulsates with magical energy. The item can't be removed from its original position, else the effect of the Hallowed Grounds will vanish. The magical item must be accessible.
Only two Hallowed-Grounds can be cast per (one) tile. Per Lunarmancer, only three Hallowed-Ground maximum can be cast at a time. If the land or the item in question is destroyed, the effects of this spell are as well. A Gamemaster must be informed if an indefinite Hallowed-Ground area is active or destroyed. |

If the target is a living being: D5+3 Damage If the target is a voidal being: D5+3 Damage, Cannot move or attack for 3 rounds. If the target is a building: 1 shard = medium damage, 2 shards = severe damage, and 3 shards make the building collapse. |

Red Lines | The healing effect is not applicable in combat.
If the cloud is slain, the ability goes on cooldown for 2 rounds and the caster falls down, taking 3 damage. The cloud cannot fly, it only hovers 1m off of the ground. The cloud counts as a mount, and thus the caster cannot use this while on a mount. The caster may use mount movement like a horse while on this cloud, any other movement buffs from spells do not apply anymore while on the cloud except the Head Wind spell. |
Lightning Reflexes (Tempestacy Only) | |
When entering combat, the wind mage of the highest level always goes first.
