Supernatural Powers



Basics of Supernatural Powers

Supernatural Powers (Powers) in Arvinia and in Ershona are broken up into multiple categories. The first and most basic seperation in these Powers are the different kinds of Powers one can find,

-The first, which is the most common, is known as Magic which is powered by the flow of Mana in the world.

-The second is Sorcery, a power that is not well known but is drawn from within using ones own willpower as fuel.

-The third is Thaumaturgy, a power that is all but unknown in the world, known best for its ability to seemingly break the normal rules of reality that Magic and Sorcery are forced to abide by. It is most commonly associated with Relics.

-The fourth is commonly referred to as True Magic, powers that seem innate to a beings existence. Powers such as Devil Blood Magic or Spirit Elemental Magic fall under this category. Of these four categories of magic only the first one is commonly known and taught. Some nations such as Bria have access to Sorcery. At this time there is only one user of Thaumaturgy, Reyva Zentreza. True Magic is a rarity and is usually only the domain of beings who are not native to the planet of Ershnoa such as Devils and Spirits. Devils however are often found granting their summoners use of their blood magic in exchange for some price that they name. At this time there are two known users of True Magic that is both their own unique magic and are native to Arvinia, Olivia Zaj Elar and Aion Veldras Silvria.

The Basic Laws of Reality Concerning Supernatural Powers
All Supernatural Powers are bound by the following rules

-The effect of the power's use is directly proportional to cost to do it.

-All powers can be detected in some way, not always by all kinds of powers but all powers can be detected by something.

-No power is completely natural, all powers require their user to learn how to use it.

-All powers require you to be aware of your target's exact location in some way, your target does not necessarily have to be a living being or even a single thing.

In addition to the above rules, Magic and Sorcery are both subject to the following rules

-Cannot truly create or destroy matter or energy, anything created or destroyed through magic will eventually be undone

-Cannot alter the fundamental nature of anything that is not magical in its basic nature, transforming gold into stone or stone into gold is not possible for example, nor is it possible to transform an elf into a human or vice versa.

-You cannot use the same magic for more than one technique at a time.
