Halcyon magic is a syncretic theory of magic originated by the legendary Old-Mage Jatembe and practiced by students of the Magaambya, the academy of magic that Jatembe founded. It represents a combination of arcane and primal magical traditions, with a focus on the convergence of all essences of magic.

Practice

Practitioners of halcyon magic consider arcane and primal magic to both originate from the same source. This is also referred to as halcyon syncretism.

In practice, syncretic halcyon magical techniques manifest as halcyon spells, specific spells that the spellcaster can cast using their choice of arcane or primal magic. Magaambyan students begin studying halcyon magic at the attendant rank.

Advanced mastery of halcyon magic opens spells from occult and divine magical traditions to the spellcaster, though they remain focused on casting them though arcane or primal magic.

Those who devote themselves to the study of halcyon magic are known as halcyon speakers, and their in-depth studies result in them accessing powerful forms of dualisitc synergy between arcane and primal magic.

Notable practitioners

• Professor Mafika Ayuwari, a halcyon speaker of the Tempest-Sun Mages, led the Speakers to the Winds team at the 4721 AR Ruby Phoenix Tournament.
• Druids of the Halcyon Circle, also known as halcyon druids, also draw from the syncretic teachings of Old-Mage Jatembe.
