Relics of the past, Casters. Left behind by advancing times, they are steadily being replaced by mages, sorcerers, and other structured magic users. The magic of today is refined—capable of shaping raw arcane energy into tangible elements and predictable effects. Casters, by contrast, simply harness the natural mana found in objects, life, and the air itself. Though largely obsolete, their methods haven’t disappeared entirely. The Lanzeer Phenomenon—an ever-escalating vortex of condensed mana—remains one of the few things they’re uniquely suited to confront. A black hole of arcane energy, the Lanzeer consumes the land, draining it of life and drawing forth creatures that thrive in mana-rich environments.
