About Magic
Origin, Formations, Rankings
These formations are what every mage learns and practices with. In almost every country, qualified mages must be capable of drawing one up in a set period of ti by themselves to be considered a fully-fledged wizard.
It is a pre-requisite to qualify for the following rank to be able to create the formation by incantationBy speaking the magic words alone.
Interdiate
From this level onwards, all the formations can be broken up into smaller segnts. Adept version can be separated into a minimum of two and a maximum of four segnts. All separated parts are usually a tier lower than the main formation, and in the case of multiple segnts, they can even go two levels down from the original. These segnts can then be activated simultaneously by different mages of varying strength.
The head mage, leading the casting of the spell, must remain in complete control and focus, including their helpers. Any interruption can result in a backlash and the failure of the spell.
Mages who can single-cast Adept-level spells are considered to be a step away from the Expert-level.
Adept levels can still be summoned via only incantations, but any mage capable of doing it is already considered an Expert-level mage.
Adept spells are dangerous and destructive. They usually play the main role in any engagent they appear in.
Expert
Master-level spells are mostly unknown, but we can conclude that most of the sa rules are applicable.
No known mages exist who managed to cast a Master-level spell by themselves or by only incantation.It is considered an impossibility and only a skill reserved for the Gods themselves.
The last recorded usage of a Master-level spell happened in AE 1784No more information is available. We only know of its result: Lake Deepwater, the body of water separating the Kingdom of Moros and the Ishillia Empire. The lake is not present in any earlier maps found throughout the continent..
