Spell Weaver mage
Mages of Valkor
Build spells by combining their size, shape and element. Mages study offensive magic alongside useful spells such as light.
The spell weavers are not originally from Aegic, but arrived to the planet from another dimension, fleeing evil creatures which had almost extincted them in their own world. They are only vaguely humanoid and short, seldom more than 65 centimeters tall. Their lower body is snakelike, with no legs, and their long, slim arms could be mistaken for tentacles, although they have hands with long and delicate fingers. Their head is oval-shaped, with two very large and all black eyes. Spell weavers have blue skin and quite frail bodies.
The spell weavers have adjusted well to life in Icesus. They do not live in any organized communities that anyone else could notice, but their great telepathic abilities allow them to communicate with each other over long distances and form one big community in that way. When communicating with other races, they usually use normal speech. They were named 'spell weavers' when their talent for learning and using magic was discovered, and are now respected because of that ability. They dislike using their magic to harm, but will not hesitate to do so if needed. Because of their familiarity with magic, they are immune to the condition known among other races as magical weakness, that comes with exhausting your magic powers. They have also natural ability to defend themselves against offensive magic.
