I wouldn't mind seeing the pairings and an character example, want to make sure I'm filling out this sheet right [quote=@Fading Memory] The idea of an alternate universe where the monarchies held power with magic and the age of revolutions has culminated in peak Slice Of Life magic duel academies is highly amusing.

While duels are fought, usually it's with swords, not magic.
