Magic

Magic exists in the world of Miris, and still plays a large role in Mēr society, despite the fact that its use has become very limited over the past couple hundred years in areas not inhabited by Mēr.

There are five main different schools of magic, which can be put out into the physical world using various different methods. These schools are Red Magic, Blue Magic, White Magic, Black Magic, and clear magic. Red and Blue are opposites, and so are White and Black. These two groups of opposites are parallel to each other. The most common ways of casting these is either channeling them through your hands, legs, mouth, or radiating them out of your body, like an aura surrounding you.

When casting a spell from one of the main four schools, it is impossible to cast a spell from purely one school, there must be some magic from the opposite school to counter the magic you're casting, and Red/Blue needs to be mixed with either White or Black to have an effect, likewise, White/Black needs to be mixed with either Red or Blue to have a physical medium to pass through. How much of each school is put into the spell, determines its effect. Clear magic, on the other hand, is independent in the way that it does not need another school as a counter to be casted.
