This is the arcane art that tries to decipher the most likely future of mortals by examining the interaction of the Blue Wind of Magic, Azyr, and the light of various celestial bodies, including moons, stars, comets and meteorites. The magic of the Celestial College, also known as Astromancy and Divination, can be very roughly divided into three areas: prognostication, control over meteorological phenomena, and the most dangerous, manipulating the future through curses. It is this foreknowledge that is the true test of Astromancy, for if you look into the future you must live with what you see. These gentle effects may lead some to believe that the Blue Wind is an easy thing to master - not so, for one glance into the eyes of a Celestial Wizard reveals the burning power of Azyr and the terrible foresight it brings. The magic of Azyr leads its practitioners to become dreamy and unearthly, with a calm, comparative demeanour. It apparently can be sensed by the manner in which the permanent celestial bodies are distorted by the drifting cloud of Azyr's impermanent and temporally distorting blue light. As the Blue Wind blows from the timeless realms of the Aethyr across the distant sky, it supposedly appears as a clouded window through which Azyr's Magisters can predict certain events.

This association with the sky gives Celestial Wizards their power over storms, flight, and mighty hurricanes. It has few temporal boundaries and supposedly reaches into all the possible futures as readily as it floats across physical distances.Īfter passing into the mortal realm, Azyr is said to be drawn into the upper portions of the heavens, becoming a haze of eerie cloud, visible only to those who posses witchsight (the ability to actually see the Winds of Magic).

To those with The Sight, Azyr appears as a charged, crackling cascade, like lightning. This magical lore, also known as Astromancy, is practiced by Magisters of the Celestial Order to divine the future and pluck the strands of fate. The magic of this Wind is based upon knowledge of the unknowable and the manipulation of the skies. Emblem of the Celestial College of Magic.Īzyr, the Lore of Heavens is the Blue Wind of Magic, and it is said to be a manifestation of the Aethyr's reflection of inspiration and that which is out of reach.
