History

In the early days humanity is beseidged by demonic legions. The world itself begins to crumble and the havens of the humans begin to fall one by one. The gods flee the planet to ensure their own salvation, only the greater god of magic remains, fusing into the world in an attempt to save his people. Despite the boon of magic humanity is slowly cornered over the centuries and brough to the brink of annihilation. The god tears the reality between worlds and opens a bridgehead for his people to escape to. Humanity arrives upon their new world [Farhaven] and establish their new empire. The strongest of the mages, the last through ten to leave the planet are gifted with taking as much magic as they can to the new world. From the power they carry 9 new divinities are born into farhaven, the host of the lost fragment of Abjuration dying before she could escape the world. The new demigods become know as the Paragon and form the heads of the schools that now represent the fragments of their former lord. So long as a schools Paragon lives new mages will continue to be born with that schools powers. If a paragon dies before handing over the fragment to a sucessor the magic of that school [ceases to function]/[Is stunted] while the fragment slowly inhabits a new host. This process can take decades depending on the following and devotion of that school with no new mages of that school inheriting magic until their Paragon is reborn.
