Many gifted mages who seek to study and research magic well after they complete their education end up in the institute, as it serves as the most thoroughly equipped research facility in the kingdom. While there are private competitors, the institute still has a freedom that private organizations don't. While the council always makes sure they don't break the law, the institute is allowed to bend the rules for the benefit of the council. [break][break] The institute was initially founded as a facility that was intended to create Homunculi and study the research of the creation of life. They are responsible for the birth of every Homunculus currently alive. Over time their purpose began serving the progress of magic rather than merely being a production facility for artificial humans. The majority of Eos' developments, such as the creation of airships, the sewage facilities and the waterways were drafted up in the institute by its most gifted mages.[break][break][break] Location: Institute of Sorcery[break][break][break] Augur The head of the institute. A decorated mage and alchemist who has improved life in Eos in some way. Likely one of the smartest characters in all of Eos. @name (open) [break] Alchemists The mages that go into research and development are given the title of Alchemist. Alchemy is not an official school of magic, but is rather the name for the collective practice and philosophy of developing new ways to use magic, whether that be developing new spells or creating new magitech for public use. @name[break] @name [break] @name [break] ...

A multi-faceted organization that hosts Eos' favorite sport: magic combat. There are multiple leagues for multiple disciplines, such as single, tag team and group combat, every school of magic represented in every combination as well as alone, some allowing only one or several schools in their leagues, multiple magic games and obstacle courses and even simple tests of individual control, skill and showmanship. Every discipline is sub-divided into three leagues. Apprentice, Adept and Master, with every league increasing in its competitors skill.[break][break] The most popular league and most public spectacle that occupies the Collosseum all year 'round with its preparations is the 'League of Legends', where mages from any degree of skill are allowed to sign up and attempt qualification. The mages that ultimately qualify, usually mages from combat-focused master-class leagues, are then pitted in one on one duels for the title of Sorcerer's League Champion. This bi-annual event is a spectacle for all of Eos and captivates millions of citizens for the fight to the victor.[break][break] The mages signed into the league usually sign temporary deals with the league to get varying degrees of compensation depending on their performance and talent in their leagues. Those that manage to qualify for the League of Legends are usually high-grossing professionals that attract hundreds of thousands of viewers in their own leagues and can live in a fair bit of wealth thanks to their ability and performance in the league.

The Black Market is a criminal enterprise that has survived centuries of political power exchanges in Eos. It is comprised of a variety of people from all walks of life who make sure that things run smoothly and the Council has as little interference as possible in their operations. The Black Market provides all the goods and services that the public can't provide.[break][break] Members of the Black Market are typically separated into two rough categories. The administration, which consists of a handful of people who take care of the business end of the market, make sure everyone gets their share and stays employed. The also make sure things run smoothly, everyone keeps their mouth shut and the Council doesn't get wind of things. They have the most authority in the Black Market, and will tend to those seeking to disrupt operations, or betraying the organization. Then there's the diverse group of mercenaries that consist of brokers, assassins, bodyguards, thieves, spies and a whole assortment of people who'll follow the money. [break][break][break] Headquarters: Black Market[break][break][break] Kingpin The boss of the Black Market. A cunning, enigmatic figure that has a tight hold on Eos' underworld.

[nospaces] [attr="class","opmind"] [attr="class","opmindtop"] [attr="class","opmindtopp"] [attr="class","opmindtopcenter"]Homunculi [attr="class","opmindblurb"] [attr="class","opmindblurb1"]Homunculi are artifical humans. They are humans that were created through a process known as "Aetherbirth", where a biological, non-ethereal organism is born by means of magic. Aetherbirth was a secret experiment created by the inventor known as Grenouille Ribaldo Lacrím, who attempted to create improve the human condition and induce the next step of human evolution. This experiment succeeded in creating a lifeform now known as "The Original Homunculus". An incomplete version of the Homunculi we know today. Its incomplete nature was in large due to lacking proper humanity despite possessing great power and control of magic. It ended up attacking the kingdom, and, although it was subdued by the city's forces, it led to the Council discovering Lacrím's experiments. [break][break]
Taking his work for themselves and refining and perfecting the process, the Council ended up forcing and supervising Lacrím to continue the creation of Homunculi. The intention of creating a serving class for the people of Eos. These Homunculi were intended to be similarly powerful, but dull and obedient. Lacrím did their bidding, but managed to perfect Aetherbirth, allowing the creation of thousands of Homunculi that possessed humanity and were identical to their creators. The creation of Homunculi continued for several decades and the population of Homunculi in Eos rose to about 0.3%.[break][break]
In the centuries to come, Homunculi, despite being fully-functional humans, were oppressed and effectively treated as slaves. They were seen as "lesser humans" due to their artificiality. They were branded and barely possessed any rights. It took years of tiny steps of progress for Homunculi to slowly but surely manage to carve out their place in Eos' society. Many civil rights movements, protests and confrontations later, Homunculi have managed to garner the same rights as humans in Eos. It was only 50 years ago that Eos has begun recognizing Homunculi as equal to humans. They are still discriminated against in many parts of life, but they have begun to be allowed to become politicians, scholars, teachers and doctors. And thanks to their long life, Eos has received a large influx of skilled workers into its ranks. The population of Homunculi is rising nowadays as they possess more rights than ever, and families have begun forming.

[nospaces] [attr="class","opmind"] [attr="class","opmindtop"] [attr="class","opmindtopp"] [attr="class","opmindtopcenter"]Mutants [attr="class","opmindblurb"] [attr="class","opmindblurb1"]Mutants are what happens when humans are affected by Aether during the process of growing inside a mother's womb. This results in an alteration of their genetic makeup, to the point where they can biologically no longer be considered a human, but merely something very closely related. These alterations usually result in a human developing traits otherwise associated with other creatures. Mutants may grow wings, fur, horns or a combination of multiple traits. Mutations can be extremely subtle, such as merely having developed incisors, or pointed ears that can hear better. Most commonly, these mutations cause humans to develop animalistic, beastly appearances. They may even take on traits of etherious creatures such as wyverns or serpents. While these mutations are generally unique, and no two mutants are completely similar, Mutant parents tend to pass on their additional genetic traits to their Mutant children, and there have even been recorded cases of early mutant civilizations that shared a series of common traits among them.[break][break]
Culturally speaking, Mutants are treated as Humans. However, that has not always been the case. There have been periods in humann history, especially during the early period of the Kingdom of Eos, where Mutants were not only heavily dscriminated against, but even politically persecuted. Before this period of Mutant discrimination, the percentage of Mutants in the Kingdom was around 10%. They were a common sight, and were treated much like they are today. But during the era of monarchial oppression the Mutant population was decimated, and many Mutants were driven out of the kingdom and during later periods, even imprisoned and mass-murdered. This period is considered one of Eos' darkest moments in history that was recitified by subsequent civil war.[break][break]
In modern times Mutants can live and love freely. This cultural and societal freedom has allowed the Mutant population in Eos to rise back to around 5%. Going by the flat value however, there have never been this many Mutants living and thriving in Eos as there are today. While there may be humans that still harbor negative feelings towards Mutants, any discrimination or racism towards them is not only forbidden by law, but also societally shunned. Mutants don't need to have any fear of being at a disadvantaged or disenfranchised in Eos, and Eos is in fact advertised as one of the best places for Mutants, or anyone to build a life for themselves.

[nospaces] [attr="class","opmind"] [attr="class","opmindtop"] [attr="class","opmindtopp"] [attr="class","opmindtopcenter"]Humans [attr="class","opmindblurb"] [attr="class","opmindblurb1"]Humans have been the dominant species for thousands of years and have practiced and perfected methods to harness Aether since the stone age. They have evolved from primates and through the establishment of civilization, magitech and societal structures, enabled by their unparalleled intelligence, they have managed to stand at the top of the food chain for countless millennia. Early human civilizations in Serra date back to long before the establishment of Eos and the Serran Empire, but evidence suggests that the modern human didn't originate on the Serran continent, but migrated from elsewhere and settled here several tens of thousands of years ago.[break][break]
Humans have natural magical potential, fostered and enhanced throughout the ages, to the point that humans are likely the most magically capable lifeform on the planet. While there are certainly other living beings that boast powerful uses of magic, there is no known species that is able to match the complexity and variety in which humans can use magic, despite the fact that there are many species that boast a near-human level of intelligence.

Although the existence of Aether has led humans to be slightly more variable when it comes to pigmentation, height and weight distributions, they are otherwise similar. They are the dominant species in this world and stand at the top of the food chain. They live in a fairly advanced civilization where magic has become the driving force of progress. They make up the majority of Eos' population but have spread to all corners of the earth. The civilizations they build are complex and their potential appears limitless. The average age of death for Humans is around 100.[break][break]
Mutants Mutants are humans that undergo magical mutations in the womb and end up as something genetically different from a human. These mutations are physical in nature and cause Mutants to have unique appearances. These physical mutations usually have no bearing on a Mutant's intelligence, personality or behaviour. Mutants can reproduce with Humans. 2 Mutant parents always give birth to a Mutant child, while only one parent being a Mutant appears to have no effect on the chance of birthing a Mutant or a Human. Mutants tend to have slightly shorter lifespans when compared to Humans. The average age of death is around 70 for Mutants.[break][break]
Homunculi Homunculi are artificial humans, born through magic usually invoked by another Homunculus. This means that some bio-mechanical functions are supported by magic. Homunculi don't need to sleep as much, eat as much or excercise as much to maintain themselves. They also age much slower upon completing the process of puberty and can reach ages of up to 400 years old. Homunculi can not give birth to humans and are completely sterile. They can however reproduce by ways of magic and create another Homunculus with one of their own kind. Other than their biology being supported by magic however, they are identical to regular humans in appearance. [break][break]
