A Magi, also called a "wizard", "mage", or "sorcerer", is an individual who is capable of harnessing and manipulating the power of the Lux Aeterna (or other planes). These wielders of Thaumaturgy are greatly feared and respected across the universe due to the power they command.

Magi Power Scaling[]
NOTE: The scales are from strongest to weakest.
Classical Magi[]
Classical Magi are ranked on a scale ranging from zero to a hundred. The level at which this is measured is known as the "Ψ" (psi) level. The higher an individual's number, the more powerful a Magi they are, letting them draw upon more energy from the Lux Aeterna. All Magi start out at zero, but as they get older and progress more with their abilities, their number will increase. The scale at which Classical Magi are ranked is as follows:
- Master: 100-81
- Expert: 80-61
- Journeyman: 60-41
- Apprentice: 40-21
- Initiate: 20-0
Harmonic Magi[]
Harmonic Magi are ranked on a scale ranging from zero to ten. However, unlike Classical Magi, who draw their power from the Lux Aeterna, Harmonic Magi draw their power from an individual known as a "patron". The level at which this is measured is known as the "×" (aleph) level. As the Magi improves in skill, they are able to call on more of their patron's power at once, allowing for the use of more powerful abilities. The scale at which Runic Magi are ranked is as follows:
- Avatar: 10-8.1
- Prophet: 8-6.1
- Warlock: 6-4.1
- Herald: 4-2.1
- Underling: 2-0
Esoteric Magi[]
Esoteric Magi are ranked on a scale ranging from zero to one. The level at which this is measured is known as the "á" (mana) level. As an Esoteric Magi's power increases, they are able to draw out more of their plane's energy without tiring. However, the Magi must be careful not to draw in too much energy, lest they suffer negative side effects. The scale at which Esoteric Magi are ranked is as follows:
- Transcendent: 1-0.81
- Enlightened: 0.80-0.61
- Sage: 0.60-0.41
- Incantor: 0.40-0.21
- Neophyte: 0.20-0
Invocative Thaumaturgy[]
Invocative Magi, or Paladins as they are often called, are ranked on a scale ranging from zero to a thousand. The level at which this is measured is known as the "á¨" (ansuz) level. The higher a Paladin's ᨠlevel, the more power they are able to draw on from their locus. The scale at which Paladins are ranked is as follows:
- Exarch: 1000-801
- Justicar: 800-601
- Templar: 600-401
- Squire: 400-201
- Apostle: 200-0
Notable Magi[]
- Spirits - The Spirits are a species who came not from the material plane, but from the Lux Aeterna itself. Despite their numbers being extremely low, only six of them are known to exist, they are incredibly powerful and long-lived, with the youngest among them being hundreds of thousands of years old. They have swayed the course of history for untold eons, particularly in places like Aylathiya.
- Father Zaphenim - Father Zaphenim is the first recorded Spirit, being the oldest and possibly the most powerful of his kind. He is ancient even by the standards of the Spirits, being over a million years older than his closest contemporary, Mother Sachitel.
- Mother Sachitel - Mother Sachitel is the second recorded Spirit to emerge, coming into existence about a million years after Father Zaphenim. She is currently allied with Mother Sydiah, acting as the head of Sedrua's military forces.
- Father Rinayo - TBA
- Father Isayo - TBA
- Mother Okho - TBA
- Mother Sydiah - Mother Sydiah is the founder and current ruler of Sedrua. She is one of the oldest living beings in the known universe, and is sixth recorded Angel Spirits after Mother Ohko. Upon entering the material plane, Sydiah had only a few objectives, one of them being to spread Aeternalism across every reach of the Universe. Through her long and tyrannical years of leadership, Sydiah brought herself to a divine level, creating her Architects while expanding how she saw fit. Her subjects were grateful for the worlds and technology she bestowed, viewing her as a figure of benevolence. After disappearing in an Aeterna Cascade, the Wane of Reality and the decline of Sedrua followed. It was only a few centuries ago did Sydiah return, saved by the very children she created. She dethroned Vurilia Jutopati, another one of her children, and punished him for straying far from her path. She sits on an iron throne, accompanied by her fellow Angels upon bringing them back to reality as well.
- Sydiah's Architects - Sydiah's Architects are a race of synthetic beings created by Mother Sydiah shortly before the founding of Sedrua. She created them in order to spread Sedrua's influence across the stars, each one capable of starting a civilization on their own. They were also gifted with a high degree of Thaumic prowess. Their numbers have drastically lowered since their creation, with only four of them known to still be alive. These people are Vurilia Jutopati, Itrian Yutira, Drizuna Jutopati, and Thonde Yutira. All but two of them are succumbing to their own powers. One of the four, Vurilia, has been trapped in the Aeterna after being punished by Sydiah.
- Vurilia Jutopati - TBA
- Itrian Yutira - TBA
- Drizuna Jutopati - TBA
- Thonde Yutira - TBA
- Silverstar - Silverstar is the mysterious being worshipped as a god by the people of the Theocracy of Silverstar. The worship of Him dates back millennia before His nation was founded, starting out in Aylathiya before his followers were culled by the Triumvirate Civilization. After Moonmoon guided the survivors to Azurullya, the Cult of Silverstar was founded, becoming the sole ruling body in the newly-founded Theocracy.
- Moonmoon - Moonmoon is the leader of the Theocracy of Silverstar and is perhaps the oldest living human in the universe. Born on Aegyn hundreds of thousands of years ago, Moonmoon has taken it upon himself to spread the will of Silverstar across the cosmos. He has come into conflict with Sydiah in recent years.
- Aylathiya's Traveler - TBA
