Do you like to watch magical movies, like Harry Potter? If you do, then I hope that you will like what I am going to share this time.
I'm fun of reading about supernatural things, until I read the book A Starter Kit for Wizards by The Great Arcturus. This book contains the basic information about Wizards, if you haven't watch Harry Potter, then Wizard is someone who can perform a spell.
But first let me Flex to you my sponsors, one of those persons who guide and support me throughout my journey here. You guys can check them too:)
________________________
Before you become a Wizard, you must first spotted by a wizard scouts. Once a scout notice you, it will keep an eye on you and observe if you have a potential to become a Wizard. After months, those recruiters will gather and discuss about those potential students that they want to be part in Wizard college. Those students that they chose after the discussion will undergo some challenge, for example a Wizard will do a disguise to give some task to the student, and once he is satisfied about the student's work then the Wizard will reveal his true identity. The Wizard will ask permission to the student's parents or guardian and when it's done, they will bring him/her to the Wizard College.
There is what they called "Houses", these houses are divided into four divisions;
The House of the Elements
This is divided into 7 schools or subjects :
The School of Fire
The School of Water
The School of Air
The School of Earth
The School of Illusion
The School of Conjuring
The School of Nature
The House of the Spirit
Use spells from gods and goddesses
The House of Light
Use spells from bright side of the Universe, this includes the sun and stars. All the positivity in the universe : hope, life, happiness, etc.
The House of Dark
Use spells from the dark side of the Universe. All the negativity in the universe : destruction, sadness, guilt, etc.
There are also 3 different ways to perform the spell.
1. Verbal
In order to perform the spell you must utter it. For example in the movie Harry Potter, "Avada Kedavra."
What's the hard thing about this, is you must memorize words, once you say it wrong during trouble then nothing can help you
2. Gestures
Moving the fingers or hand is the common gestures to do a spell. The more accurate they performance the action the more powerful spell it produce
3. Components
Based on what I understand, this one is based on the formula that they combine in order to make some potions. We have here for example are the poison and love potion.
Speaking of potion, there are four levels of it;
Simple - using basic ingredients.
Standard Potions - combining two simple potions
Complex Potions - combining two standard potions
The Fourth Level - this is prohibited when you are just a student, this must be surrendered to the School Principal. Making this is like, you're planning to do bad thing.
If we have Book of the dead in Egyptian mythology, where we can find the spells and process of mummification, then the Wizards also have the Spell Book. Not a book where you can spell the word 'coop-d'etat' but the book about magical spells. This serve as a guide or instructions to those students who are just practicing to do a spell.
About the proper clothes of a wizard, the top among this is the cloak. Every style and color it wear tells about their rank and school of magic they specialized to. For example in the House of Element : Fire(Red/Yellow), Air(White/Sky Blue), Water(Blue, Green, White), Earth(Brown, Green), Illusion(Multi-colors), Conjuring(Purple) and Nature(Green).
..Then the hat and robe.
At last, just like ordinary schools, in order to became a Wizard, you must pass those years in Wizard school and pass the exam. Go for a high grade!
That's it! Just share those points that I'm get interested in.
How about you guys, if you're going to learn one magic, what element or school you want?

What van eye opener. I have always thought that wizardry had to entail some human sacrifices or bloodshed. This is common in my country Glad to hear a different side of it.. Hope you are doing well ☺
