Mage apprentice

This page describes a part of Icesus that no longer exists.

Backgrounds were how a character was put together before kingdoms and stories replaced them. None of the choices described here can be made in the game today. The page is kept as a record of how Icesus used to work.

Those who persist become intelligent people with good control of the magic powers and able to cast some simple spells.
