Talent is an essential notion, but it differs according to races. Among beastkins, physical talent dominates, while for humans, it is defined by the ability to perfectly absorb mana and retain it without dispersing it.
Talents for becoming a mage are divided into five categories: Mediocre, Average, Superior, Epic, and Legendary. All beastkins are classified as Mediocre. Human commoners are most often Mediocre or Average.
Nobles frequently reach Superior or Epic levels. As for elves, none fall below Superior talent, and the seven legendary families are distinguished by mostly Legendary talent.
Awakening, whether warrior or magical, always occurs in the same way: a person at least fifteen years old must absorb the mana from a mana stone. The higher the individual's talent, the more transparent and luminous the stone becomes during absorption. If the talent reaches at least Superior level, the most compatible elemental attribute with the person clearly manifests.
