~Pre-story~ (Think of the world as being Lord of the Rings-ish, and having all the magickal and fantasy creatures you've ever head of <3) (P.S. Mages are magick-users with one or two particular talents. Ex: a Fire Mage who controls Shadows. A wizard is a magick-user who can control pretty much any type of magick, though say a wizard tried to use fire, it could be very strong, but never as strong as a fire mage's since that would be their forte)
Jyrem Sarekellryx is an orphan living in the woods near the outskirts of the Narvome wild elf territory. Normally they don't allow other beings so near to them, but Jyrem's mother was an elf and they tolerate him as a half-breed that they needn't bother with. He has lived devoid of human since he was seven, living off the kindness of random passerby and the occasional kind elf. His father, he was told, was a wizard though Jyrem himself has shown only minimal magickal aptitude. His spells are basic and when he tries to use stronger ones they usually go awry. But he never minded much since he had what he needed to survive and one friend he named X (choose a name, this is your character)
X is a Mazam or magickal familiar. (Think of black cats and witches) (Choose an animal for X to be, it can be any kind) Each magick user has a familiar given to them by the Magickal Court, a court of nine members each of varying race that oversee the use of magick and other affairs. Familiars help to guide their charges use their magick and keep them safe. But this is only with suggestion since most cannot talk to their masters. Some magick-users are strong enough that they can form a bond and link to their Mazam, granting them the ability to communicate, but most have non-verbal relationships. Jyrem and X have the non-verbal relationship, but are as close as a familiar and master can be. Jyrem considers X his best friend and treats him as such, and X eventually views Jyrem as his best friend and takes Jyrem being his charge very seriously.
Mazams are supposed to be animals endowed with magick, who are then given insight by a magickal human and therefore able to reach human intelligence. But this is often not the case, there are two kinds of Mazams. The least common are the magickally endowed animals, those animals have magick on their own and like most animals are already as smart or smarter than many humans. And then the kind that most magick-users have been given..Mazams that were once people. The first Mazam was made six hundred centuries ago by a wizard named Dremar who still lives today. (Magickal beings have varying but long life spans) Dremar was in a competition with his rival and turned the other into an animal, giving him the idea to make use such people as familiars. Very few people know of this though, since it is a well-guarded secret and they get away with it easily. Many of the Mazam's are transformed criminals or prisoners, guilty and innocent alike, also people that might not be easily missed or that are from other countries. The Mazam's have a strong spell put on them so that they are trapped in animal form and even if they can talk to their partner, they cannot reveal the truth of who they are and must act as an animal.
X was captured as a criminal (you can choose if he committed a crime or was innocent) and has been trapped as a Mazam for forty-years. Nineteen of which he has spent in the company of Jyrem. The first ten he spent being locked in a cage and treated as an animal by magickal users until a proper owner could be found. He ran away and managed to escape, hiding out until one day he came upon an elven woman as she had just given birth. X used his magick to heal the woman, who was about to die from sed childbirth and as payment she took X in and they lived in the cottage that Jyrem lives in now. As soon as he touched Jyrem, there was a flash of light and a slit heart shaped mark appeared on what would be X's right wrist if he were still human, and the same mark appeared on Jyrem's right wrist. He knew was to be the boy's familiar though he was reluctant at first. Eventually Jyrem grew on him, being fond of him and treating him kindly unlike the rest of the people. So he decided he would indeed be Jyrem's familiar and keep him safe, especially when the boy's mother died.
Nineteen years have passed, Jyrem lives by doing odd jobs here and there and one day he was walking through the forest with X. Winter had started not too long ago and the lake was frozen over with ice..or so he thought. Jyrem ran so that X would chase him and wound up on the ice, he expected it would hold but it started to crack and Jyrem picked X up and tossed him to the shore so that he would not fall in just as the ice gave way under Jyrem. He fell in and was taken by the current and trapped under the ice. X looked down at his friend in horror, his magick welling up inside of him as he realized his friend was about to die. His desperation and rage called out to his magick, and by their bond, Jyrem's as well. The next thing Jyrem is aware of, someone has broken through the ice and pulled him out of the water.
~Prestory End~
~This is where the story begins, the person that pulled him out is X in human form.~
~The story will include falling in love, magickal mishaps, trying to stop the familiar-thing-this isn't all that will/can happen this is just some ideas.~
~At some point in the story, at least once though more is always welcome, I don't care why but X has to turn Jyrem into an animal. Maybe to keep him safe or if they get into an arguement or something..*loves transformations* *puppy eyes*~
~As stated, feel free to take any liberties. X is either a powerful mage or wizard-and if you like you can make it so that he occasionally reverts to animal form. Maybe just randomly, maybe because of an emotion or using too much magick (just brainstorming, you don't have to)
~Jyrem is mine and X is yours except in flashbacks, otherwise feel free to do anything with any character or just stick to X~
