[@Rekaigan] No worries! I'm glad you're interested! There's no real "element" that the mages master in this world. It's more of, they use the elements to help get energy for the magic and spells. It honestly reminds me of the Force in Starwars, where they can use it all, but it drains them physically and mentally. There aren't wands, and i don't recall a staff being used for magic by Sorcerers, but maybe a Dryad or something? What is really key in controlling magic is your creativity, your focus, and the hand gestures and body movements needed to create it with a certain spell. There isn't a limit on what type of magic there is, but some spells are forbidden, or frowned upon, like necromancy. Many of the mages that go to schools to learn magic call it a "science" and it's always advancing, and with hard work anyone with the gift of magic usage can do almost anything. Hopefully this helps :D
