Dragon's Howl Prison

Image
After a series of tragic events involving magic and wizardry, the Cloaken Monks declared all magic to be illegal. As one might expect, the wizarding world resisted, and fighting broke out. Eventually, the conflict involved most of the kingdom and became known as the First Wizards War.  The Cloaken Monks, with far superior numbers, were victorious over the wizards, and the war ended with many wizards dead, most in hiding and the leaders in custody. The wizards considered the greatest threat were taken to a newly constructed prison known as Dragon's Howl. Here, they were locked in tiny cells, and any use or suspected use of magic was met with extreme measures. Many wizards died in Dragon's Howl Prison. Some froze to death during the brutal winter, others starved to death or succumbed to the elements after being locked in small cages with no protection from the weather and given little or no food. In the center of the prison was the largest  known to exist. The Cloaken Monks beli...

Wizarding World

 The Wizard's world is made up of several levels, from Grand Wizard to Potion Collector. Wizardry was deemed to be legal after the Second Wizard War. The term wizard is a generic title that, in legal terms, applies to both men and women. When speaking specifically, female wizards are referred to as witches.

A Time Walker

Image
A Time Walker is a person who will have a vision of the future when they make physical contact with another person. This is most often seen as a curse, and the Time Walker will live a life of solitude, avoiding any human contact. The stress of their condition and solitude results in a vast number of physical ailments, and most are in poor health.  Some Time Walkers will see a future that is set and unchangeable. Others will see a future in which their own actions can result in an alternate future unfolding. Still, others will see a future that can be altered, but not by the Time Walker themself. It is considered improper for a Time Walker to share their visions, but many do so because they cannot shoulder the responsibility alone. It is unknown how a person becomes a Time Walker. It is known that a person is not born with the power, and it is not passed down from parents to their children. No one who has ever acquired the power has ever lost it before death. Many refused to d...
