Mystics



The Mystics were an race of humans born with a natural affinity for magic. Their origin is unknown, but their presence throughout history is well known.

As self-proclaimed heirs of their gods, the zealots of their kind argued that the mortal men of the world exist to serve the Mystics and rallied crusades against the rest of the world. These often amounted to little more than raids, but two culminated in the first and second wars of the Mystics, both of which ended in their defeat and the branding of their kind as enemies of man. Shortly after the end of the second war, the surviving Mystics were hunted en masse until only a handful remained in the world.
