>Overview
Sorcerers are offensive magic users. They are usually students, researchers, or academics. Sorcerers are capable of using Elemental Spells, which consist of damage-dealing magic of various magic elements, such as Fire, Ice, Lightning, Crystal, or Shadow. By obtaining Spell Scrolls, Sorcerers can learn new Spells and add them to their repertoire. A Sorcerer’s goal is to obtain new Spell Scrolls to learn more, and more powerful, Spells.
Magic is the channeling of natural energies in the atmosphere to create spectacular results. By combining magic-reactive catalysts with spoken commands, spell-casters can command the very forces of nature. However, the teaching of magic is a zealously-guarded secret, privy only to a handful of prestigious academies scattered all over the continent. There are many charlatans whose “magic” is really just a trick, but true Sorcerers have spent years poring over ancient tomes and scrolls to attain their command of spell-craft. Nonetheless, the Academies are secretive institutions presided over by centuries-old headmasters, and many enterprising mages eventually find themselves banished for overstepping their boundaries.
