The Spheres of Power

It is believed the power (magic) of the spheres was gifted to the races by the High Dragons themselves. Power exists in all life. This power converges in 4 points in most humanoids forming spheres of power. These spheres are also made up of 4 interconnected rings of power. While not many can draw from this inner power there are some individuals who master the ability to draw from one of the rings, giving them unnatural abilities. These individuals are able to "sling" the power of a ring. These individuals are known as slingers. Even rarer are individuals who can touch the power of multiple or in the most rarest cases all of the rings within the spheres granting them massive power. These individuals are known as mages. 
The Spheres of Powers:
The Element Sphere consists of the following 4 rings: Fire, Water, Earth, and Wind. 
The Attribute Sphere consists of the following 4 rings: Wit, Agility, Brawn, and Stamina
The Mind Sphere consists of the following 4 rings: Sense, Telepathy, Compulsion, and Ward
The Heart Sphere consists of the following 4 rings: Mend, Rend, Cure, and Decay
Slingers and Mages who practice in the art of sphere wielding have created various new techniques based on their own power level, understanding, and by combining various sphere abilities. An example of this is frequently used by Rill Slingers who have mastered their ability to Ward, usually used as a shield against the other powers, to ward themselves from sight, making them near invisible. Or by mages who combine Fire, Ward, Wind, and Earth to create Liquid Fire.
It is also widely believed a fifth "Master" Sphere may exist.
