Mind Magic

Mind magic is a powerful and mysterious form of magic that allows users to manipulate and control the thoughts and minds of others. It is often associated with biomes that have a strong focus on knowledge and learning, such as libraries and intellectual centers. It can also be found in biomes that are known for their strong spiritual or psychological energies, such as meditation gardens and temples.   To manifest mind magic, users must have strong mental focus and a deep understanding of the intricacies of the mind. They must be able to tap into the thoughts and emotions of others in order to control and manipulate them. With this magic, users can plant thoughts and ideas in the minds of others, erase memories, and even take control of another person's body. However, using mind magic can be dangerous, as it requires a great deal of skill and control in order to avoid causing harm or altering someone's personality in unintended ways. As such, mind magic is often considered one of the most powerful and potentially dangerous forms of magic in the world.
