  • Since the discovery of magic, mankind has pushed the limits of what is possible. Those that were lucky enough to possess the talent for magic led the world into a new renaissance of culture and discovery. Suddenly towns, cities, nations began to pop up around the world in a manner of months. Many were built on ground especially attuned to magical forces, and became hubs for magicians to gather and teach the newer generation of magicians. These hubs were the building blocks for what are now known as Magical Academies. For centuries, the world prospered under the tutelage of these academies, which often bore the future leaders of the world.

    This peaceful era of learning and culture seemed like it would never end, that is until the accidental discovery of the siren song of demonic magic. Nobody is quite sure who discovered it or even how they found it, but its effects spread quickly throughout the magical world. Every magician heard its alluring call, beckoning them to give in to its power. Many were able to resist, but about half the world's magicians were enticed and fell to the demonic corruption. This event became known as the Fall of Magic, marking the start of the 100 year brutal campaign against the corrupted demon army.

    The corrupted demon army was ruthless. They indiscriminately killed both magic and non-magic users, burning cities to the ground as they spread their corruption wherever they went. It quickly became apparent that the current state of magic was not suited to defending against such an enemy. Loss after loss threatened the end of everything, that is until a group of magicians rose up to fight back. They fought as a group, creating spells and combining skills to push the army back. They taught what few remaining magicians remained how to fight back, successfully pushing the corrupted demon army back. Eventually, they were able to seal the song with a barrier created from the life force of the group that rose up, using their very souls to seal the evil.

    150 long years have passed since the end of the war, but many of the scars still remain. What few Magical Academies that were not destroyed were converted into Magical Defense Academies. The restructuring of the academies focused more on teaching new generations skills to fight and defend, rather then furthering the altruistic practices that had all but been forgotten. As there was no longer a prosperous magical world to lead, graduates were charged with fighting and defending against the corruption and corrupted that still remain.
