Magic

Magic is the product of a skill that harnesses the invisible energy of living beings, the planet, or even deities. It uses Mana as a fuel source. Skills that employ Magic are called Spells.

Mana represents the scale of the spell (range, magnitude of effect).

Knowledge increases casting speed.

Magic can be used for a variety of things ranging from damage, debuffs, buffs, defenses, or utility. As such, Magicians are classes that are very versatile and usually unpredictable.

Spells have a Rank that represents their difficulty, cast time, and general effect. The Ranks go from E (the lowest) to S (the highest).

Magic normally has a Casting Time. Normally, the higher the Rank of Magic, the longer it takes to cast. Spells are cast immediately after the casting time is completed. These Casting Times exist because the Magician has to focus on the Mana he is manipulating, shape it into the desired form, and then channel the effect into existence. As such, Incantations exist for higher level spells. The Casting Time directly correlates to the number of lines that need to be spoken in order to use a spell. Mastery of a spell, however, will reduce the number of lines that are needed to be said.
 * S: 10 lines
 * A: 5 lines
 * B: 3 lines
 * C: 2 lines
 * D: 1 line
 * E: 0 lines
