Introduction
Hundreds of people around the world are rediscovering what the human race had had centuries ago. One thing that was just as real as the soil underneath their feet had been around much longer than the earth itself. Magic.
Now that multiple humans have begun their magical practices, it has become impossible to hide it from the regular public. Politicians, Christians, Kings, and even entire countries fear, segregate, and attack the peaceful magicians. The situation has escalated into a full blown World War 3. But magicians aren't fighting alone. They have certain beings fighting along side them. They are called familiars, astral entities, spirits, etc. No matter what they're called, they are very real. And very powerful. Normal humans have highly funded organizations specifically made to fight against a peaceful practice. They have developed technology that can harm magicians and familiars alike. And they're not afraid to use them, even claiming that they fight out of God's will.
Which side are you on? Are you going to fight for God? Or are you going to fight for something that's been around for longer than Him?
Setting: This roleplay is set in The Iron City which used to be New York City. After years of advancing in technology, the entire city itself has become a device. All the buildings are made of metal, and function like a giant computer, mainly keeping security. There are cameras at every corner of every street. Normal humans, called Regulars, drive smart hover cars, which are designed to never crash. Magicians need to be careful about using their magic in public, for they can be caught anywhere in the city. The only safe place for them is under the streets, in an underground secret facility for magicians, called the Palace. Here, magicians can meet, either teaching each other, sharing stories, practicing magic, and other simple things. Maybe even plan a way to find a place on Earth where there's still trees left, and build a city for magicians. Then they would have a fighting chance.
Regulars are looking for the Palace, and Magicians are looking for a place in society.
Remember, all Regulars are prepared to kill a Magician.

They're fine MacBeth, Trojan spoke to her in her mind. His deep, calm voice always soothed her when she worried. "I know," she spoke back to him. "I just worry too much." Trojan chuckled, amused by her repeating what he's told her all these years. Ever since becoming a mage, she'd worried about Regulars attacking her at every corner. Each time she was about to panic, Trojan would knock some sense into her through all her paranoia. "What'dya like to practice today?" She asked him.
You need to work on your warding skills, he replied. Remember that browny knocking over your favorite mug? He asked.
"Yeah, I remember," she grumbled. "Little jerk."
That happened because the ward you created wasn't stable.
"Alright, I get it." She mumbled back, annoyed.
Finally, she reached the end of the tunnel, and was greeted by a large opening, lit by extravagant lanterns, all handwoven. Each was also lit by the fire of a Drake. A single Drake was assigned a lantern to tend to. Of course there were other jobs in the Palace that were also taken care of by familiars. Undines made sure clean water came into the Palace every day, while Fairies kept the air fresh, and breathable. No one wanted to live in a place that smelled like sewer all the time.
As she walked in, she was greeted by all the other magicians, who were practicing in secrecy just like her.

Bores, a fire sprite, just looked at him. "Want me to flame you?" he asked.
Havin shook his head as they kept walking. Magicians were there. He wasn't knew, but he kept to himself. Except when Bores tries to do something stupid. At that moment, Bores flew to some magician(MacBeth) and made himself turn into a flame on her shoulder. "Bores you idiot!" Havin shot at Bores.
Havin walked towards the witch and pulled Bores off her shoulder. He threw the sprite across the room. "Sorry 'bout that," Havin started, "He's kind of older than me bbuuut he still has a mind of a kid."

Trojan's voice spoke to him telepathically, the way he did with everyone else, How do you do?

He walked away without another word. He was here to get a job done. Where to go? Havin thought as Bores came back.
"Follow me you idiot," the fire sprite said impatiently.
Havin followed Bores until they were upon a mage. "So, you are here," the mage said.
Havin just looked at the mage as he said, "You're a spy aren't you? If you can't use magic, well, it's not going to be pretty."
"Ummm...okay you got me," the Regular woman said, "I just want to be a mage."
Bores and Havin smirked. He walked away, leaving a note behind. It read, I was supposed to kill you. But I see that I can't. He always has notes. Whether it's, Sorry for trying to kill you, I was mistaken, or, Meet me at the place of dead-some random place.

Come on, MacBeth. Trojan budded in. We need to work on your warding skills.
MacBeth sighed, "Alright," She looked at Ai, "We'll hang out later, okay?"

When the symbols were complete, she snatched each stone out of the air and stacked them in her other hand. She turned around toward her fire pit, which she made years ago, when she first joined the Palace. She only spoke one word, "Light," and a burning fire exploded out of the pit. Now that the fire burned bright, she tossed the discs into the burning coals, and chanted, "No more tricks, no more games, all brownies stay away. I call to dragons of fire and plea, as I do will it so shall it be." For a single moment the fire turned blue, and then it went out completely, leaving the stones in the ashes. She crouched over, scooped them up into her hands, and placed them back into her pocket. "That wasn't so hard," she said to Trojan.
He responded, Yes, you did well. You aren't as rusty as I thought you were. Which encouraged her to grin, pleased with herself.
Then onto the other dummy. He pushed his staff forward and fire came out of the oak and made the dummy flame. "Again, not strong enough," he said louder this time.
"Dude, you're stronger than most of us," a mage said, "So ya, don't say you're not strong enough. Do you have ancient wizard blood, or come from a longline of mages?"
"Both," Havin smirked as he left.
He noticed out of the side of his eye a flame burst up from a firepit, then disperse. He walked over to it and noticing that it was the girl from earlier. "So, do you have an ancient bloodline?" he asked unpleasantly.

It was the day I found you, Trojan spoke to MacBeth.
"Right," she replied. "Ever since he found me, he's taught me everything I know about magic." She narrowed her eyes at Havin, "And I know a lot."

Calm down MacBeth, Trojan growled at her. He's just curious.
"Yeah, yeah." She mumbled under her breath.
Well, I believe she is of an ancient bloodline. Trojan spoke to Havin. She has great potential, and power. MacBeth blushed, feeling uncomfortable about someone else talking about her. She never really liked it.

Re: Guns and Dragons
I won't be online from 23 April till 27 April. I'm going to England and there will be no Internet I think. If there is, I'll try to make a post every once in a while but that won't be like now. I won't be online for every day. Sorry for that but it's a school trip and I need to go.
