Overview

A mage’s power can manifest as a Magic Beast Form, an extension of their magical identity. When a mage channels significant energy, this force takes the shape of a creature influenced by their personality, elemental ability, and magical nature. These forms allow mages to wield their abilities at their fullest potential without being consumed by raw magic. Magic Beast Forms are commonly used in duels and battles, granting mages an edge against powerful opponents. Once a beast form is chosen and summoned for the first time, it becomes a permanent part of the mage’s magic.

Rules & Limitations

  1. A mage’s beast form is unique to them, shaped by their personality, magic type, and elemental ability.
  2. Once chosen, it cannot be changed. The beast form remains a permanent extension of the mage’s power.

Academy of Villains
  • Magic Beast Forms are first referenced in Academy of Villains during a Battle Magic class, where mages demonstrate their abilities in duels.

Trivia

  • Greek heroes were often guided by sacred animals that symbolized their divine favor or inner nature. Athena’s owl, Hades’ black stallions and Cerberus, and Artemis’ hunting hounds all served as powerful extensions of their identities. Similarly, a mage’s beast form in Academy of Villains is not just a magical manifestation but a reflection of their personal magic, instincts, and inner power.
  • Plato’s philosophical works explored the concept of an ideal self or true form that exists beyond the physical. This aligns with the way a mage’s beast form in Academy of Villains represents their purest magical identity. It is an externalized version of their deepest strengths and instincts, shaping how they wield their power in battle.
