The Mystery of Our Day

INTRODUCTION

Magic is one of the founding entities of the Far End Universe, but is most prominently active within the Azadian side. Magic runs through the planet's veins. When something is born, it is born with magic; it is that being's soul, their spirit.

Every individual magic soul is branded with a specific element. This restricts that individual to one type of magic.

There are 9 elements that an individual may be branded with at birth.

Flame, Aquatic, Floran, Lightning, Wind, Earth, Luminous, Night, and Blood.

Each individual element has passive abilities, such as clearer vision, physical strength, quicker recovery, and so on. But if an individual decides to expand their magical abilities, they may learn new spells specialized to their element that could help in both combat and domestic settings.

While this also results in certain types of elements having a more specialized skill in certain job fields, this does not automatically exclude other elements from taking in said job fields as well.

The Flame element is the most balanced element out of the 9 core elements. A jack-of-all-trades within both combat and domestic situations, a Flame Elemental is a good ally to have by your side at all times.

At base level, Flame Elementals are less vulnerable to the cold, and have a slightly higher body temperature than others. Typically, a Flame Elemental will not need to dress up or bundle up in warm clothing for colder weather. In addition, they are also able to tolerate hot weather more easier.

Flame Elementals can't really be harmed by fires or burns, but they can overheat themselves if they use their magic too much, or if they remain in contact with a fire for too long. This can result in permanent burns on their skin, which cannot be healed or erased.

The Aquatic element is the most flexible element and has the widest arsenal at its disposal. Cold temperatures can turn spells into ice, and are especially much more powerful and dangerous in the rain. Anywhere there is water, an Aquatic Elemental can use it to their advantage; even their own bodily fluids.

At base level, Aquatic Elementals aren't hindered too much by water. They have a longer air capacity when swimming, and can naturally swim better than others. They can even float and walk on water!

Despite having an advantage in water, they still cannot breathe underwater unless they are of an ocean race. However, Aquatic Elementals can still form air bubbles for them to protect themselves, or to get a quick gasp of air. This is only a permanent spell for the user, and air bubble spells casted for non-Aquatics will only last up to an hour.

The Floran Element is the most powerful element, due to their ability to control any and all flora around them. This makes them the most dangerous Elementals to face in battle. But of course, this power comes at a price.

At base level, Floran Elementals typically have a good green thumb, and are good with crops and gardening.

Further spells in the combat department require incredibly rigorous training to perfect and get right. While Floran Spells are the most powerful out of all elements, they are also notoriously hard to control and perfect, resulting in a large majority of Floran Elementals having less spells to cast. But when a Floran Elemental is skilled enough, they can be quite the powerful ally.

The Lightning Element allows control of any and all forms of electricity. Depending on their power source, Lightning Elementals can be incredibly powerful, but good power sources aren't exactly easy to come by.

At base level, Lightning Elementals are unaffected by electric and static shocks. They also have a slight magnetic pull in their hands, allowing them to pick up metal objects from a small distance.

Lightning Elementals' power strictly depends on the weather if they don't have a power source of their own. On sunny days, they are at their weakest, and in stormy weather, they are at their most powerful. Power level scales between those two types, with more cloudy and/or rainy weather showing a bigger increase in power. A Lightning Elemental and a Wind Elemental would make an incredible pair in combat.

The Wind Element is likely the weakest element in terms of combat, but they serve as incredibly good support for other elements. They can control the air and weather around them, and are able to form small clouds and tornadoes to protect themselves and their teammates.

At base level, Wind Elementals have an increased ability in weather forecasting, and are able to sense bad weather before most others.

While they may not be very powerful in the combat department, in turn they have better mobility, and are able to float in the air a bit. Sometimes they are able to "fly" as well, propelling themselves with gusts of air or rocketing themselves up.

The Earth Element allows the user to perform various skills involving the control of the earth around them. Coupled with this, they are also born with much higher strength. The trade-off is that their spells are a lot more power-consuming and slow to charge.

At base level, Earth Elementals have more muscle power. They are able to lift heavy objects with ease without having to train their own muscles, however their strength is not infinite.

Earth Elementals can telepathically move and control chunks of earth and rock, even having the ability to summon stalagmites or pillars of earth. If an Earth Elemental has trained enough, they are even able to cause small earthquakes. Large spells such as these, however, will require a large amount of recharge after use, which could leave the user vulnerable to attack.

The Luminous Element is an element specialized in visuality, toying with Azadian sight for most of their spells. They often have an impressive skill in showmanship, never hesitating to show off their power. A good handful of Luminous Elementals end up finding success in performance and entertainment, but of course, not everyone chooses that path.

At base level, Luminous Elementals have an increased eyesight, and even have night vision in dark areas. They are able to summon a ball of light to help light the way.

Luminous Elementals are more defensive, as they only have one offensive spell in the form of the Laser. However, they make up for this with incredible illusionist abilities, and are able to shield themselves in illusions if need be. Their only weakness is themselves, as only other Luminous Elementals are able to see through illusions if they need to.

The Night Element specializes in psychic abilities. Their skills allow them to control the state of mind; for themselves, and for others if they are skilled enough to perform such feats.

At base level, a Night Elemental is able to lucid dream. If trained a little further, they can learn how to read minds, and enter others' dreams as well.

Night Elementals, at their most powerful state, are able to even affect the state of others around them. A Night Elemental is able to pull in others that may be in a sleep state into a dream world, or nightmare world if they choose. They're able to become psychological masterminds, and at a certain level, could learn how to control the minds of others as well.

The Blood Element grants the user the ability to control physical organic matter, so long as that object is made up of living cells. Blood Elementals only have one kind of spell, but it has incredible possibilities that come with it.

At base level, Blood Elementals are able to heal from cuts and wounds at a much faster pace. Placing their hand over a small wound will heal that wound quickly, although it depends on the severity and size of said wound. For it to fully heal, their hand must remain placed over it.

When a Blood Elemental trains themselves and hones their skills, they are able to deform themselves in a myriad of ways, including shapeshifting a limb. Full shapeshifting takes more power and more time, but it can be achieved. If skilled enough, a Blood Elemental is able to change the body cells of another living being, but it will take up a lot more time, power and focus compared to self-shifting.
