A bit of lore

[hider=Magic]Magic is fairly rare in this universe.  Among a standard human medieval kingdom, only one in a thousand would be born with the gift.  Some others can find tomes that allow them to achieve it and have it granted upon themselves.  Some places and peoples have a very high concentration of it.

There are four major categories of magic wielders.  The higher up the list, the more divinity interferes with the ability for it to be wielded.  People can wield multiple types of magic.
[b]Mages[/b] - use mana derived from their soul in order to wield power created by oneself.   Due to the limitations on a mortal body, this is best used for smaller spells.  It's main benefit however is that your personal mana is completely under your control.
[b]Wizards[/b] - use the power derived from the universe, or the environment.  The more specific the environment, the safer and more efficient the power is.  So for example, there could be a wizard of the Desert who would gain power based on the health of the desert.  Wizards tend to make large territorial claims.
[b]Sorcerers[/b] - Sacrifice their mana to another being (usually not in the same plane of existence, otherwise the results can be… confusing) in order to gain access to their strength.  While magic is sacrificed to gain access to these spells, the result can come in either Divine or Magic form depending on the source of the spell.  While powerful, it takes time to cast, has a limited number of options for modification, and if casted incorrectly will allow that being to possibly possess your soul.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ecbTsBMeBy8
[b]Arcanists[/b] - tend to use items and things like magic circles and runes to produce spells.  High level arcanists tend to be able to summon a magic circle with their own mana, but this is a high level technique and is very temporary.  Is one of the ways to enchant an item.  Arcanists are able to modify an arcane item's original purpose using their mana, which allows them to use things like staves more effectively.  Also it allows them to do things like open magic doors by 'hacking' them.
