“That's the thing about magic; you've got to know it's still here, all around us, or it just stays invisible for you.” ― Charles de Lint

The allure of magicae is undeniable. It's a force so majestic that many dedicate their entire lives to its pursuit - something that most people spend their entire lives devoted to.

After all, when one can do practically anything with just a wave of their wrist, why would they even consider wasting their time on things like cooking and cleaning when they could be learning to tame dragons or inventing new spells? Most Magus don't even consider leaving the world of Magicae once they've made a life for themselves.

Of course, you aren't most Magus.

Instead of breaking curses or making potions, you've made the very practical (and totally not boring) choice of settling down in the non-magical world. An odd choice, sure, but it's not like you were exactly going to make it very far as a Magus. Not with your...condition.

Especially now that the war was over.

Honestly, spending the rest of your life as a Debilis was probably the best choice you could have made.

...or at least, that was what you thought until a certain bird flew through your window and let the parchment in their mouth flutter down onto your desk.

So now, instead of being able to live out what would've been your very happy and normal life, you are being dragged back into a world full of mystic and wonder to fight a war that you really don't want anything to do with. You'd be terrified (or perhaps thrilled) if you weren't dreading it so much.

Have fun exploring a world of magic and wonder. Try not to get too caught up in the excitement though - after all, there is a dark side to everything.

Create your own character! Their personality, appearance, gender identity, sexuality and skills will be yours to customize!

Choose from five different houses that your MC could've been in during school!

Look back into your past and all the fun experiences and relationships that come with it. Try not to fall too deeply into it though - you still have the future to look forward to after all.

Join a secret magic organization in order to stop an upcoming war!! Yay!!

Navigate through a series of complex relationships. Will you find friendship? Fall in love? Help mentor and care for the child of your deceased friends? Join the dark side and murder everyone? It's completely up to you!

Astoria Furi (29) [F]

A former classmate and the current Lychnus Professor at Medeius. Astoria's just as intelligent and charismatic as you remember. Of course, she has upgraded from the popular head girl of your past and has become second-in-command for the Circle. Amidst the chaos of ongoing conflict and her unwavering commitment to her duties, will you be able to capture her attention?

Personality: Astoria is the type of person that garners respect from both friends and foes alike. Behind her calm and polite demeanor lies a heart that is filled with both passion and dedication. She embodies intelligence, talent, charisma, and, most notably, leadership. One can only wonder how someone is so perfect...

Appearance: Astoria is as elegant in appearance as she is in personality. Her dark umber skin is always perfectly clear and there is never a single jet-black hair out of line when it comes to her curls. Whether she be in a perfectly pressed pantsuit or a more casual turtleneck, she is dressed to the nines. Her captivating dark brown eyes complement her hourglass frame, that has her standing at around 5'9".

Caspian Vale (28) [M]

An incredibly powerful Magus and, more importantly, one of your (former?) best friends. It's been a few years since you've last spoken but for the most part Caspian has remained the same. He's still the arrogant, reckless, and overly charismatic man that he has always been. You wonder if he'll still let you see what's really going on under that surface, even after all this time apart...

Personality: Caspian exudes an aura of confidence and charm that draws people towards him like moths to a flame. He possesses a rebellious spirit, always ready to challenge authority and fight for what he believes is right. Beneath his roguish exterior, however, lies a fiercely loyal friend who would do anything to protect those he cares about. You used to be one of those people.

Appearance: Caspian is the embodiment of the "bad-boy" trope. Standing tall at 6'1" and sporting a lean but muscular build, his bronzed skin carries a smattering of freckles that only add to his allure. His dark, ebony locks cascade past his shoulders, framing captivating slate-grey eyes that seem to ensnare anyone who meets his gaze. With rugged good looks and an air of mystery, he's often seen in ripped jeans and a leather jacket, his skin adorned with a few tattoos scattered across his arms and torso.

Solaine Ozul (28) [NB]

Another former classmate and former rival (at least your friends former rival...) Solaine has kept their admittedly terrible bad attitude but has moved on from sneaking books out of the forbidden section of the library to breaking curses. Unsurprising, considering their skill in...less than favorable types of magicae. Still this war may be opportunity to mend old wounds...

Personality: Solaine is, to put it simply, an incredibly unpleasant person. They are apathetic and snarky on a good day and downright cruel on a bad one. Still, they're undeniable skill and intelligence is almost enough to make up for it. You also have a very distinct feeling that there is something much more warm lurking beneath their cold exterior.

Appearance: Solaine is the epitome of reclusiveness, a fact evident in every aspect of their appearance. With sickly pale skin and a tangled mane of shoulder-length (greasy) white hair, they cut a lanky figure at 5'7". Their gaze, like deep pools of dark purple bordering on black, pierces through anyone who meets their eyes. Preferring to shroud themselves in baggy, dark attire such as oversized sweaters or occasionally donning traditional magical robes, Solaine exudes an aura of mystery.

Maeve Blackwood (26) [F]

Maeve, a recent addition to the Circle, bursts onto the scene like a blazing comet of energy. While her background remains shrouded in mystery, one thing is abundantly clear: her spirit burns with almost too much passion as well as unwavering commitment to the cause. Yet, beneath her fiery exterior lies an enigma, leaving you uncertain whether to draw closer or keep your distance. After all, you don't want to get burned.

Personality: If there were a human embodiment of the term "spitfire," it would undoubtedly be Maeve. Her fiery spirit and unpredictable nature echo draw both admiration and caution from those around her. With a penchant for unpredictability and a dash of reckless bravery, Maeve navigates the world with a fervor that commands attention and respect, yet also leaves a trail of uncertainty in her wake.

Appearance: Maeve rocks a bold style that's as vibrant as her personality. With her short, blue (formerly blonde) hair framing her face, her piercing amber eyes command attention. She has tan skin dotted with freckles, and she stands at a sturdy 5'6" - her muscular build adding to her confident aura. You'll often catch her in graphic tees paired with jeans, completing her edgy look with a pair of rugged combat boots.

Jasper Blackwood (26) [M]

Jasper, perhaps the gentlest soul among them, stands as a stark contrast to his spirited sister. Quiet and empathetic, he exudes an endearing awkwardness that sets him apart. He exudes a gentle charm that he uses to navigate the world with. He seems eager to get to know you (although he seems eager about everything) and it's hard to tell if you should be flattered by the enthusiasm or not...

Personality: Jasper possesses a gentle soul, a rarity within the Circle, yet one that commands admiration. While his knowledge of magicae may not rival that of his peers, and his interest in combat appears lackluster, his dedication to the cause remains unwavering. Despite occasional hesitance and a tendency to stumble over his words, Jasper's fervor for standing up for what he deems to be right shines through, showing off the kind person that he is.

Appearance: Much like his sister, Jasper sports a tousled blond lock, paired with warm amber eyes. His tan skin, speckled with freckles, adds to his boyish charm. Standing at a slightly awkward 5'11", he possesses a lean, gangly frame that lends him a certain charm. His wardrobe typically consists of cozy sweaters, well-worn jeans, and comfortable sneakers.

Inactive Twitter accounts will be deleted

So like I understand the need to free up usernames that were taken and then never used again, but what about accounts of people who died ?

Its unclear if the criteria for an inactive account’s deletion is both “No log in for years AND zero tweets made by the account as a whole,aka empty accounts”

It could very well be “No login for years and zero tweets made during this inactivity”

Which would sucks cuz theres a lot of cool stuff made from accounts who are inactive, and again, all that some families have left from their deceased loved ones is an inactive twitter account.

Back in 2019,this concern was brought up, and Twitter said they wouldnt delete accounts to free up names without making it possible to memorialize accounts of a deceased person first.

Now, Under Elon, i dont know if it will be made.

So if you know an inactive account you really loved.. make sure to save its tweets into the wayback machine, take screenshots, etc.

Just in case.

Also they dont even specify how many years. We’re left in total darkness regarding questions we have.

Also im encouraging you to please REBLOG as to further warn people.

Also hey maybe if enough people Ask Elon about not deleting inactive accounts who do have content in them maybe hell only delete accounts who are empty ??

If you can’t reblog this, unfollow me now.

can someone please be proud of me like fuck I’m trying
