Arcane Armageddon

You've heard of magic right? Pulling rabbits out of hats, guessing cards without a glance. These are nothing but parlour tricks I'm talking real magic Its true I tell you! They all dismissed me as some fool, Well they learned that magic isn't fiction but it was real. Its thought that died out in the middle ages with the Magus Merlin's Death. However after the events that have transpired people see it now as a necessity to live in our new chaotic homeland.

We lived beyond the end of the world.

Like the dinosaurs before us, our time came to an end as a giant meteor hurtled towards our planet on a crash course for destruction. Countless people died during the chaos following the impact, and our world was blanketed in radiation. However, unlike the ionising radiation from uranium, this mana as it became to be known twisted many of the life forms that had survived the impact.

The survivors of the impact now have been forced to live in refuge's that are relatively free of Mana. Within a few years though, we have discovered ways of focusing Mana into a sort of energy shield allowing us to live without fear within our rebuilt cities, The same tricks were used to give us arable soil, clean water, and at least let us survive on Earth.

However beyond our walls, danger awaits in the wasteland. Mana changed people, ranging from green skinned brutes to the the mighty fire lizards dwell out beyond our sanctuaries. We had to find someway to defend ourselves against these foes who only wish destruction. Scattered across the wasteland our scouts had found some odd crystals that had appeared across the desert that thrummed with an energy. When exposed to mana and focused, The magicite allowed even the average joe to use simple spells. though some are more adept at directly using magicite, even a blade infused with it can cut through thick steel. These crystals were harvested and made into "cores" which are now found in everything we make from our farming equipment to power it, to our weapons to defend our homes.

I believe that someday we will over come the horrors of the wastes by banding together, hopefully restoring our world to its former glory.

Character Classes

Magicite warrior: These warriors are commonly found wielding weapons enhanced with energy. If focused their blades can easily take down the toughest foes. unfortunately they can't use other cores to cast spells too easily.

Templar: These Magicite users train long and hard to use a greatsword or a battle axe but can also be found alongside Magisters to learn to wield Mana as a weapon. Because of their versatility, they sacrifice damage as well as defense as they cannot wield shields.

Magister: These masters of magic wield the power of their cores to maximum effect. because of their harsh training in the ways of magic, they are more susceptible to physical attacks and cannot take as much. Most Magisters wield a wand or a staff containing a selection of magicite cores for using different spells, though some may choose different to suit their tastes.

Cleric: Clerics, instead of wielding Mana for destructive purposes, they find ways of manipulating it to heal the sick and mend the injured. Like Magisters they are weak to physical attacks.Most clerics wield a wand or a staff containing a selection of magicite cores for using different spells, though some may choose different to suit their tastes.

Artificer: Artificer prefer to attack their foes from a distance by using their Magicite infused bow-swords capable of firing from a distance and fighting close range While they can't directly use spells, they can create items with spells like effects. They can take more damage than a Magister or a cleric because of their time out in the wasteland.

Many other classes sometimes can choose to use different weapons if their class wants to use a weapon not designed for their class.
