SETTING: A magic school with a name tba
half the population at least born w/innate elemental magic abilities
magic school w/technology
yes, and of course due to the pop. ratio there are many many schools just for magic people
just as there are many many schools where mages and non-mages attend classes alongside in an integrated system
MAGE CIRCLES:
mage circles: full elemental circle (either 4-7)
once bonded, mages can mentally commune and share experiences/thoughts with one another
so they REALLY have to trust one another, and there's no sense of privacy most of the time so circles are becoming increasingly rare
you can only leave a circle upon death because it's a forever thing
more highly regarded than marriage definitely
but like for ppl who only want to mindshare with one specific life partner mage, there's that too (so the circle is actually a pair, but all the same rules apply)
so mage pairs are a little more common than mage circles, but still not that common bc the trust and commitment is so rare
paired mages don't get the power amplification benefits
exactly........and even if your powers were amplified, would you really want it to come at the cost of your mental privacy, that sort of thing
but like think of paired mages as a very watered down version of the circle mages
it's really more about mindsharing for pairs, so it can be used as a practical thing as much as it might be used as a romantic thing
tactical, practical, and romantical
exactly
the problem with mindhsaring though is that there are different levels
on the shallowest level, you pick up on basic emotions and very strong thoughts
go a little deeper and it's like mind-reading - conscious streams of thought
a little deeper and it's subconscious and memory stuff
in the deepest level you are basically sharing/merging consciousnesses, so if you do it for too long, you'll start to lose sense of your own identity and believe you are the other person or a combination thereof
so newly formed circle mages have to learn to set those boundaries and barriers
yes, if there were 7 people who could survive merging consciousnesses for that long
most people instinctively pull out when they reach that deeper level because self-preservation instinct kicks in
and also because it feels so invasive to be seeing through the eyes of a whole other person
SCHOOL UNIFORM:
white button-up shirt, black pants or black knee-length skirt
or any color blazer
choose ur own blazer dudes
black tie with the school logo
and then just standard school shoes
oxfords
Elements: Fire, Air, Water, Earth, Lightning, Light, Dark???
