Temporal Magic

There are many motivations to becoming a wizard some for dark purposes and some for light. One of the most common themes is the want to control time. These wizards may explore different means of controlling time for various reasons. They may want to become an immortal being and look toward necromancy. They may want to use the flow of time to change the past, or future, and look towards transmutation. Very few actually discover the correct combinations to explore the flows of time by combining transmutation and divination.

Those who discover this whether a divine reason or sheer intellect become known as temporal mages. Legends claim that time mages are born and only certain ones can learn the magic to control time. Even the most powerful of mages can struggle with the spells that control larger aspects of time. They often end up as phantoms or shunted into some distant plane of existence. Those who explore this path can become powerful wizards but not unstoppable. Temporal magic is one of the rarest forms of magic and one of the least explored. It is a taboo practice many wizards avoid the magic and view temporal mages as dangers to society. Even necromancy is often more approved of than temporal magic.
