USAGE OF MAGIC

[SHIMON]

There are three styles of magic use in Fincayra, each having a varying effect. Though many prefer the usage of wands, it is mainly used in terms of speed and accuracy for wizards and witches. Lacking in overall power that deals massive destructive damage, wizards and witches who use wands tend to lean to using Charms, Hexes, Jinxes, Transfiguration, and Curses.

However, there are some who use Staffs - which is viewed as a more mightier approach. Over the years, the usage of staffs has been associated with clerics and acolytes, and many people who use staffs of any kind specialize in Conjuration, Healing, and few Elemental spells. Though they can perform the Elemental spells well, due to the fact it is a staff and quite bulky any spell they use tend to take some casting time. However the control of its effects is great, as well as its stream of power.

Finally, there is the magic that is performed simply by the gesture of a hand - also known as Natural Magic due to the body becoming the focal point for a person's energies (particularly the hands). This sort of magic leans to only Healing and Destructive offensive magic, and considering it is performed by hand it has very little accuracy, but a larger area of effect. Most people prefer not to use this sort of magic due to the fact the magic often will harm allies nearby due to its uncontrolled frenzy, however many a wizard without comrades will be willing to burn everything to the ground in a fit of power.

There are also few special wands and staffs out there, and these legendary items are greatly cherished in the isle of Fincayra. You can search for them and obtain them, causing said items to become family heirlooms, prized treasures, or simply a quick way to gain influence within a prominent city.
