Sorcerer

We are children of magic. Beings born with a connection to the aura in the air all around us. A privilege many seem to take for granted. It is something many believe makes us superior, but that is simply not true. It is a gift from our ancestors and we should handle it with care.
— The Librarian, Library of Birohhal
  Sorcerers, descendants of the original magic wielders and the dominant species wide spread across the lands of Violem. With an innate magical connection they have become masters of spellcasting and rune scribing allowing them to create kingdoms, conquer monsters and travel across the realms. But with so much conflict between themselves, the species never seems to be truly united.  

Appearance:

The typical sorcerer looks very much like a human from the realm of the same name. With an average height of 6ft and various skin tones depending on their environment. The only real distinction is half pointed ears, a halfway point between the Minauran's rounded lobes and Acuran pointed tips.  

History

The exact origins of sorcerers is unclear due to the nature in which they came to be. After the Acuran race were cursed by the Elders of the Universe, the race became less powerful and lost part of their magical connection resulting in sorcerers. Over several generations Acurans faded out and were replaced by their successors, known today as Sorcerers. Over the years, the knowledge of the Elders and other cosmic beings resulting in many sorcerers believing these to be myths, legends and deities for religious groups such as the Church of Hodall and Order of Fortune.   As a result of limited magic, sorcerers designed and divided spellcasting into different schools of magic for future lineage to practice. The schools of Conjuration, Abjuration, Transmutation, Divination and Enchantment are still used to the present day. A sixth forbidden school of magic known as Necromancy is also possible to learn, but this school of magic tends to be reserved for Necromancer.   All throughout history, sorcerers have created and gotten involved in conflicts with many of the other races in Violem. With a strong hatred for Necromancers, seeing them as forces of pure evil as well as Minaurans which many Sorcerer believe to be inferior due to their lack of magical ability. Even arguments and skirmishes have led to wars between sorcerer settlements throughout history, with the most blood shed taking place during the dark era. A period of time where the Acuran became extinct Acuran Madness and ended in the Cytal Civil War.
