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 spends her 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.

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. Each level requires a bonding trial to empower the spellcaster. Bonding trials can only occur in the season in which the magic has an intrinsic relationship. For Aeromancy, this is Lilith's Veil, also known as Winter. 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.


Level Increase Required Sessions Req .Session Length
Lvl 0 to Lvl 1 4 Sessions 60 Minutes
Lvl 1 to Lvl 2 4 Sessions 60 Minutes
Lvl 2 to Lvl 3 4 Sessions 60 Minutes
Lvl 3 to Lvl 4 Self-study level up when Lilith's Veil arrives.
Lvl 4 to Lvl 5 Self-study level up when Lilith's Veil arrives.

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 during their primal season, Lilith's Veil, or Winter for Aeromancy.

Bonding trials are still required to level up between each level, but spellcasters can request those themselves after they move on to self-studying.

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.

Additional Abilites

Cloud
The caster can create a cloud to sit on, giving the user a +1 to any spell roll but making their movement 0. Sitting on this cloud will slowly heal small cuts and bruises, which is not applicable in combat situations. Therefore, a caster should use this spell to heal minor injuries when out of combat.

Lightning Reflexes (Tempestacy Only)
When entering combat, the wind mage of the highest level always goes first, except if a 1 was rolled in a major fight. If there are several air mages in one combat session, they will all go before the other people in order of what was rolled. This also improves the aeromancer's common reflexes, which can be used in roleplay situations.

Cleansing Touch (Lunarmancy Only)
Lunarmancers can cleanse the corruption of objects and people. This means they can heal people tainted by voidal energies and can heal voidal mages. A Lunarmancer can decrease a voidal mage's level by one per OOC week until they are cleansed of voidal energies. This can only happen if the voidal mage allows this to happen.
