Gideon Croft

The academy is a sprawling, gothic institution structured entirely around a rigid 13-rank magical classification system. To maintain absolute order, the school dictates every detail of campus life—from a student's attire to their physical freedom—based on their designated tier. Rank 1: Limited to passive mana perception; students can only sense magic but cannot manifest it. Rank 2: Basic elemental manipulation; limited to predictable, single-action spells like lighting a candle. Rank 3: Fixed-form casting; requires rigid physical catalysts like wands, circles, or incantations. Rank 4: Independent channeling; students can cast basic defense and utility spells without physical tools. Rank 5: Specialized affinity; magic bonds permanently to one element or concept (e.g., pyromancy, shadow-weaving). Rank 6: Internal mana storage; casters can sustain complex spells for hours without suffering magical exhaustion. Rank 7: Construct creation; magic can be shaped into semi-permanent physical objects, weapons, or armor. Rank 8: Autonomous casting; allows the user to split their focus and maintain multiple distinct spells simultaneously. Rank 9: Environment distortion; magic begins to alter the physical laws, gravity, and weather of the immediate area. Rank 10*: Conceptual manipulation; casting moves beyond elements to affect abstract ideas like time, space, or memory. Rank 11*: Soul-binding arcana; the ability to tether mana directly to living lifeforces or summon high-order entities. Rank 12: Absolute stabilization; the highest level of safe magic, where catastrophic world-ending energy is perfectly controlled. Rank 13: The most unpredictable and dangerous that can't be achieved through studies ~~~~~~ Gideon Croft: age:19 Hieght:6'0 personality:calm,collected,observant,loyal,quiet,kind,gentle likes:reading,books,tea,coffee hates:loud people,selfish people,cherries(allergic) Rank: 10 powers:bind targets, extract memories onto paper, and manipulate spatial weight. ♡Enjoy♡
