Magic

Basic Information
'YOU CANNOT START A TIER 2 MASTER OR ABOVE! You must start as a tier 1 master or below. (High Elves can start as Tier 2 just learning.)'

Magic works as an inborn ability, possibly passed down via bloodline, or some sort of inherit ability to learn/know it.

I'd say it takes about 1-2 emotes to cast, and possibly a nice description of the cast of magic, but it's mostly freeform other than that.

'Tier 1 takes about 3-4 months to learn, 5-6 to master. Tier 2 takes 6-8 to learn, a year to master. Tier 3 takes a year and a half to learn, 3 years to master.'

Fire Magic
The caster with this magic has the ability to manipulate fire into balls, beams, or something else. Fire Ball/Beam are the basic manipulation into balls of fire, which normally can set things on fire. Beams of fire can pierce into the clothing and set them on fire, along with other things.

Tier 1 ~ Fire Ball [The caster raises a finger, then slowly opens their hand as the ball of fire grows, then pushes a hand forward to launch the ball], Fire Beam [The caster raises a hand, a blast of fire shoots forward, if hitting wood or clothing it sets it on fire].

Tier 3 ~ Hellfire [The caster's aura shoots from them towards the target, heating metal and singing clothing].

The caster focuses for about 5 minutes, and black ice begins to crack and slowly shoot out in spikes and break the body of the caster into nothingness].
