Homo-Magi | Homo Magnus

Homo Magus is a sub-race of naturally magic-wielding humans. According to Doctor Mist, the Homo magi evolved in a parallel but separate line, alongside Homo sapiens. Homo Magi are naturally adept at magic; since many humans possess the Homo Magi gene because of their relationships in the distant past, these humans can learn to use indirect magic by performing rituals, but pure Homo Magi or their direct descendants can use direct magic, too.
The Homo magi existed for as long as the human race, but due to their special abilities, they did not expand as the Homo sapiens. Eventually, they started to inbreed with normal humans, resulting in many generations of Homo magi turned to Homo sapiens. As the number of pure Homo magi dwindled, they decided to recede and went into hiding.
