Radiance Aurelith Equilibrium Frequency
Magic as illumination — the belief that understanding the structure of reality grants the power to reshape it. Radiance mages do not bend the world. They convince it to agree with them.
Shadow Noctharion Diminishment Frequency
Magic as subtraction — the understanding that removing things from reality is easier than adding them. Shadow mages work in negatives, carving spells from the absence of light, warmth, and hope.
Nature Verdantis Proliferation Frequency
Magic as growth — not gentle gardening but the overwhelming, unstoppable pressure of life expanding into every available space. Nature magic is aggressive. Seeds are patient weapons.
Chaos Infernyx Disruption Frequency
Magic as destruction — honest, direct, and thermodynamically inevitable. Chaos mages do not pretend that fire is a metaphor. Fire is fire. It solves a surprising number of problems.
Sorcery Aethermist Reverberation Frequency
Magic as resonance — the amplification and redirection of existing Frequencies rather than the creation of new ones. Sorcery is the most elegant school and the most dangerous to master, because feedback loops kill.
Void Abyssal Anti-Frequency Frequency
Magic as negation — not Shadow's elegant subtraction but the brutal erasure of Frequency itself. Void magic creates spaces where reality simply stops functioning. Nothing survives in a void. That is the point.
Spirit Ethereal Memory Frequency
Magic as remembering — the Ethereal plane stores every event that ever occurred across all planes, and Spirit mages learn to read this archive. Prophecy is just reading ahead in the index.
Death Infernyx / Noctharion Diminishment + Disruption Frequency
Magic as ending — the synthesis of Shadow's subtraction and Chaos's destruction. Death magic does not kill. It accelerates the process by which all things return to the Frequencies that created them.
