Magic

Serving as both a source of life and a field of study, magic is intertwined with the history of Opia. It is as much a part of the world as the people are, providing a means to survive to many, as well as a source of both offensive and defensive capabilities to a large chunk of the population.

Once commonplace on Opia, many schools of magic have found themselves replaced by the rapid expansion of technology over the lands. Pockets remain dedicated to its study but the reliance previously exhibited by many major groups has dwindled, rendering it much more of a niche interest than ever before.

The people in which it thrives find themselves more adept and powerful than ever before however, leading to tension between both those for and against the resource, as well as between a number of the practicing schools of magic.
