Murmur

Murmurs are similar to that of songbirds in nature, mimicking what they hear and singing to anyone who bends a willing ear. Most are content to spin new takes on old fairytales and folklore, but there are a chosen few who are considered keepers of the past, memorising and cultivating notes in whatever way they can to preserve what little history of the isle remains known to them. Most simply keep the records in their heads, but there are a select few who have managed to produce a number of physical copies of their work, though paper remains a precious commodity if you do not know how to make it.

Celestials

The rank of the artists of the Astrarium.

Creativity is highly prized among the herd. Art is what separates the civilized from the uncivilized, and expressions of artistic skill have long been appreciated.

This covers every creative endeavor. Writing, painting, drawing, sculpture, fashion, metalwork (especially weaponry and jewelry), music, acting, etc.

The best of the best receive patronage from the king himself. The rest find their fortunes among a herd who are typically quite happy to pay for their creations.
Cogs

The vast majority of the Markless belong to a group colloquially known as the Cogs. As their name suggests, they are largely the reason most things in Tasnal are able to function. They are the primary work force and are often recruited by citizens to aid in various projects. As a group they are incredibly diverse in nature, ranging from youth who are entrenched in studies to elders who have lived their entire lives as Markless.

While they are barred from any government positions, or anything requiring expertise, they may fulfill a great number of roles. Apprenticeship under Specialists is common and highly encouraged. Gaining experience in one’s field is considered one of the most important aspects of earning Citizenship, and it’s not rare to see prominent Specialists or even Guild Masters swamped with eager students. Many others work in an array of odd jobs and can serve as mechanics, farm hands, and even healers in their community; albeit unlicensed ones. Cogs are also permitted to set up small booths on Tumul and throughout the Markless districts in order to sell small items and services.

He tells her that he got her name from combining the names of his three mistresses he had before she was born. While Minare is ranting angrily about men, Kureko arrives and he, along with Mato and Komoto, work together to save Minare's show using the "answer twenty relationship questions while close enough to see a wild brown bear" idea.

Gameplay

Gameplay in Arcana Uncharted is meant to be straightforward and casual.

The primary goal is to contribute creative works of your characters (drawing and/or writing), create stories with other members (roleplay) and participate in faction run plots or fun community events.

Additionally, your character(s) can also have magical abilities, called talents. Head over to the Magic Mechanics page to learn more about them.

You do not have to level your character(s) in Arcana Uncharted, but you do level the aforementioned talents when participating in events or quests, and you'll be asked to meet a certain 'score' for your artwork or literature contributions.

**Talents** are magical abilities that your character can learn. Every Talent has three levels for your character to acquire through contributing creative works.

Pegasi

The common ancestor of all pegasi was a being deeply affected by wind magic. As such, all pureblooded pegasus will have at least one set of wings. Feathered wings are the most common, but there are plenty of individuals who sport wings reminiscent of bats, and rarer still are the individuals who grow insect-like wings.

Pureblooded pegasi are usually herbivores, but frugivore individuals are not unheard of. They have a difficult time adapting to dairy and cannot tolerate meat in any capacity.

Pegasi characters can have an affinity for wind or lightning.

**Pure pegasi always have:**

* at least one set of wings.
	+ wings can be feathered, bat/dragon-like, or insect based.

**Pegasi can have:**

* feathering on the body.
* feathers in place of a mane or tail.
* draconic fins
* more than one set of wings.
* cloven hooves.
* lionel tails.
* avian feet.
Agent

Agents are essentially the eyes and ears of the Voice. They are spies that report directly to Tasnal’s Council of Nine and the Voice and are utilized to gather information from both within and outside of Tasnal’s borders. Unlike assassins, they are not expected to take drastic action- they are simply required to report their findings back home. They may take on a number of cover ranks, and sometimes are planted in Tasnal’s government itself, just to ensure that loyalty is indeed being upheld.

Agents are among the few Citizens that do not necessarily require a Mark. Although they must initially earn Citizenship, many cover their marks with the use of magic or take the more drastic route of removing them completely. In this way they are able to go undercover in the Markless districts and are employed by the government to monitor any talk of rebellions.
Comets

The rank of the knights of the Astrarium.

The Knights of Cosmos are a tough, and highly underappreciated group. They are the policing force of the herd, and their jobs vary between standing guard, policing the streets, and investigating/solving crimes. If trouble needs to be dealt with, it's the knights who are called.

The compensation knights receive is substantial, especially at the leadership positions. In addition, free housing is provided in the Royal Barracks on Unum for those who desire it. As such, joining is a good method for the poor to find stability. But the path to becoming a knight is as difficult as it is promising. Only the most fit can pass the physical test, and the ethics and intelligence tests weed out the rest. While one doesn't need to be genius to pass, logic and civility are required traits.

While the nobility and the public are prone to corruption, the knights have thus far been largely immune to it. As a community, they are famously harsh on any signs of it, considering themselves to be more pure than the herd at large. It is a source of pride among them.

In addition, they are historically extremely loyal to the king- as he treats them with far more respect than the nobility does. (He also came up with their compensation plan. That helps too.)
Revolutionist

Born in the face of corruption and voiceless masses, the current rebellion actively shuns the values of the Citizens and seeks to oust the current government from its power. Watchful eyes and ears are everywhere, and as such those with a rebellious spirit must be discreet in their opinion, lest they risk banishment from Tasnal. Colloquially known as the ‘faceless’, the face of the rebellion is indeed hidden from view; not even members typically know who they are working with. With the price of treason so high, anonymity is guarded fiercely and it is not rare for members to completely garb themselves before meeting others. Meetings are always attended with full masks and identifying markings tend to be covered in order to minimize the chances of being recognized in the outside world. While this poses an inherent risk that unsavoury individuals may attend, ultimately most would prefer their plans to be leaked than their identities.

Due to the tendency of outspoken critics of the government to go “missing”, the rebellion has yet to form any true leadership. Older members that have attended more meetings tend to have a heavier voice in matters of importance, but otherwise there is no official ranking that has been established. Members attend meetings only when they are able to without drawing unwanted attention to themselves, and as such it’s rather difficult to predict the true numbers this dawning organization has. The constantly shifting bodies mean they are not strictly organized and are truly in the beginning stages of an impactful rebellion. More than anything they are opportunistic, seizing any time they can to sabotage and expose the corruption of Tasnal’s government.

Once a plan is solidified they must act quickly; it’s often difficult to gage how quickly word can leak out. Plans have been known to be mobilized within hours of being drawn up, and they typically use hit and run and guerilla tactics to inflict maximum damage and immediately disappear. Those within the rebellion communicate via a unique cipher that can be left in public areas and recognized only by current members.

The Kirin stems from a common ancestor who was deeply affected by fire magic. They are immediately recognizable by the presence of body scales, fangs, and antlers. For some reason, residents of Aeon continue to spread the false rumor that these individuals are inherently fire-proof. Please don't set your local kirin on fire; kirins definitely burn.

Kirins are usually carnivorous or omnivorous, and have trouble adapting to an herbivorous diet.

Kirin characters can have an affinity for fire or metal.

Common

'Common' beings have no ancestry influenced by magic, and for the most part look like regular animals. Their untouched lineage allows for them to be more attuned to the world's newest class of magic: hybrid magic. Anecdotal evidence suggests that common beings are much more likely to be physically affected by wild magic in the environment; it is not at all uncommon to see them sporting cosmetic magic.

Most common beings are herbivores, but have little trouble adapting to omnivorous diets when the need arises.

Common beings can have an affinity for vapor, metal, life, or electricity.

System

The rank of the members of Parliament in the Astrarium.

While the king holds absolute rule within the herd, he rarely exercises it. Thus, the governing of the herd falls to the Parliament- a group of fifteen elected officials representing their living areas.

Six members represent the upper city of Unum. These positions are typically held by nobility, but now and then a commoner will beat the odds.

Six members represent the lower city of Duae. These positions tend to fluctuate between nobility and commoners, owing to the weaker hold of the nobles on the lower city.

And finally, three members represent the farmlands of Quator. These positions are typically held by farmers, as nobles tend not to live so far from the city.

Unrepresented are those who live among the wilds of Tria.

Elections are held every three years, with little fanfare. Special elections are held if a seat is emptied due to death or corruption. It is considered dishonorable to resign in the middle of one's tenure, and will result in being permanently banned from holding office.

At some point Mitsuo met Minare Koda and they started dating, he lied to her that his family needed more and he gave him 500,000 yen, after which he disappeared.

Sometime later, at night a woman had knocked him out and tied him up, intending to kill him with a kitchen knife. At that moment, Minare's voice heard over the radio station, telling a story of how she killed Mitsuo. The woman was distracted by the radio station playing on a phone, got up and walked over to the phone where she held it in her hand, listening to Minare's reenactment of killing Mitsuo bring the woman back to reality which scared her to the point of throwing the knife down, and running away where she was struck by a vehicle.

Soon after that, Mitsuo decided to contact Minare and she agreed. When they met he returned half of the money he borrowed, promising to return the rest and saying that she ended up saving his life. As they sat to eat, he explained he met the girl while being with Minare during a night out when sat down next to him and they hit off, but dated her after he broke with Minare .As they were spending the night talking, Minare started falling for him again, but shortly after found the cheap cooking recipe book in the trash. Minare about to give Mitsuo a kiss instead stopped before she kissed him and asked how he "actually" spent the 500,000 yen he milked Minare of, Mituso became intimidated by Minare's appearance and after lying about the co-signing for a friend admitted to spending it on Sapporo race tracks. Minare interrogated about where Mituso had come up with 250,000 yen which Mituso gave an excuse about an oil company executive. Minare disapproving of Mituso's swindling money and would teach Mituso how to live on a budget to help make the money back. Mituso complaining of cooking and eating out confirming Minare was right all along.

Mituso was then held down by Minare's thighs that had tightened around him as he was interrogated about the cheap recipe book indicating someone in the room was cooking and not himself indicative of usage through a bell pepper seed on the paper. That leads into Minare believing Mituso was using girls who liked him enough to cook for him would also give him money in the face of a facade of destitute towards them.

Nebulas

The rank of the commoners of the Astrarium.

The bulk of the herd, a rank that encompasses all those who do not fit in another. That is not to say this rank is less valuable- food needs to be made, streets need to be cleaned, buildings need repair. Common work is just as crucial to a functioning city as any other.

This rank also includes the non-noble children of the herd, who are too young to have decided their path.
Citizens

Citizens are granted a great deal of freedom to pursue their interests. Some may choose to delve into research, others go on to teach at the universities, and others still devote their time to working on various projects! This rank describes those that do not necessarily specialize into Guilds and choose to follow their own interests unrelated to government work.
Amalosi University

Amalosi University is the Isle of Lorrdveil's single (and best) academy for magic. Located in the capital city of Guildedtown, the school is open to those looking to study the wild magics of Lorrdveil, forms of inherent magic, or to learn a talent of their own.

### Joining the University

Students are accepted as young as 15 years of age for major programs of study. In order to be accepted, students are expected to have a strong background of arcane knowledge and experience in potion-making and brewing. Proof of high scores in secondary school are a plus, but not necessarily required.

Five-year programs help students gain strong understandings of magic and its abilities. Within this time, many students discover and hone their own talents. Following graduation, the majority of Amalosi alumni choose to stay at the university and continue their education or dive deeper into a specific area of study.

### University Life

In-school housing is provided due to the magic qualities of the university's interior. The university building itself looks as though it could only fit about 200 bodies within, but a secret entrance opens into a massive system of vaulted ceilings, seven individual stories that include dorms, the largest library in Lorrdveil, and a full cafe. Magical engineering has made it possible for the building to have a much larger interior than exterior and first-year students tend to get themselves lost exploring the entirety of the campus.

Students attend classes five days out of the week, usually for six to ten hours a day. Academic years are broken into two semesters with breaks given for major holidays. Classes vary depending on area of study but a general list of entry-level classes can be found below:

* Introduction to Arcane
* Uses of Magic
* Study of Magical Biology
* Influences of the Capitol and the Magical History of Lorrdveil
* Independent Studies of Chosen Affinities

Second-year students are sorted into one of two houses: Fulgir or Tura. House placement is determined by personality and skillset. The houses compete in annual magic-based tournaments and sporting events that students can choose to participate in. Those who show exceptional skill in these events may be offered a spot within the Society of the Twisted Hoof.
