Mystical and Magical Beasts:
To understand magic and be proficient in it's use, one
must understand the nature of magic and the creatures that are mystical
in nature. Once an understanding of what is magic is achieved, then a
student can begin to comprehend the power that a wizard weilds.
Creatures included in the study are dragons, unicorns, phoenix,
sprites, and elementals. Additional resources on histories of notorious
and revered dragons can be found Here
Reading and Writing Magic:
To prepare the young magelings for spellcasting abilities,
they must first be taught the nature of magic and it's components.
First written magic is covered, along with the ability to read the
mystic language. Then simple cantrips that can be invoked without the
student channeling any power, to allow them to feel the seductive power
of pure magic without the risk of becoming enveloped by it's raw
nature. Those who do well in this and the Spell Components course may
be singled out for more specialized training.
Spell Components (Material Magic):
Most spells have a material component, basically
when they are cast certain elements must also be available to be
absorbed by the power of the spell.
For example: to cast a web spell to
fill a doorway or to block a passage, a piece of spider's web must
be at hand and consumed by casting the spell. The search for these
objects and the circumstances that make them more potent require
in-depth study. The basic elements are introduced along with the common
occurances that increase the potency of these items.
