Class Summary[edit]
Mage Students are currently studying at an Academia so they may join The International Ministry of World Wide Magic Inc, and become a member one of their departments to explore the mythical and fantastical. The International Ministry of World Wide Magic Inc is a large company dedicated to discovering and mastering all aspects of the magical world, of which was explored only out of necessity before, but exploring all that the old myths hold is no easy task, so the company has split into 20 main branches, each dedicated to studying a different path of the magical world.
Creating a Mage Student[edit]
When making a Mage Student, consider these things about your character: How did they obtain their powers? Why are they at this Academia? What is their goal in The Ministry? These traits will shape how your character will act during the story, so consider them carefully before finalising a Mage Student. First off, Intelligence should be your highest stat, followed by Constitution, and then Dexterity. Hope the world is with you, that's about as much as you can do.
