The (Abridged) Legend of the Four Master Magi
Long ago, in Aceon, magic was abundant. For the longest time, there had been thousands of magi, each a master of everything and nothing. All mages knew their blood to be purely arcane and souls to be trivial. Each man used his brain to manipulate the elements of magic. Some used their innate ability to aid them in battle. Others used these abilities to defend their homelands, to convenience themselves, and ultimately, taught it to their children. A thousand thousand years passed in Aceon and since then, the Magic has waned. The world's magic aura has diminished and where once there was infinite arcane energy, so few can harness their utility.
Now, where there was thousands of magi, there are only four. Four Grand Wizards- Each a master of one domain of magic. The masters once knew countless spells but have since discarded the memory of each one that did not deserve remembering. They remember the short rituals, the incantations, the reagents, the leystrings to pluck and likely can learn nothing more from this world. They are the masters of all things arcane, having found a pool of spells they find 100% perfect and incomparable.
"But how will I become a mage?" you ask. Well I say it is no simpler than asking the Four Magi to teach you.
The Grand Wizards are men of knowledge and rarely dabble in the affair of non-wizards, but will often take on one or more apprentices. Over time the wizard will teach his apprentice all of his spells, until the Wizard dispels his essence into the aether streams of Aceon and, finally the Apprentice becomes the Grand Wizard.
Wizards take on one, two, three, or more apprentices at any one time. It is not a static number as each one is a master of his own element and may only be comfortable teaching one person.

You can, in this thread, apply for the position of Grand Wizard (To start off the chain) but unfortunately these applications will only be accepted from people we know we can trust, as this is an incredible responsibility.

The grand magi can't get into combat. Like, at all? Right?
