Frusnoer



Overview
Frusnoer is the god of magic in the Maelstrom Realm. He is the first being to have discovered magic, and is revered by all practitioners as the greatest magician to exist. The first born son of Cael-weq, he took to studying the unexplainable early in his childhood. After learning to harness what the common man calls magic, he created the eight branches of magic after mastering each of them.

During the war of the gods, Frusnoer's staff was broken. It is believed that the breaking of his staff is what led to magic spreading across the world. The staff contained many secrets, particularly dark magic, that were revealed to the realm. It is also believed that because his staff contained so much magic when it split, it attempted to protect itself by creating land masses to contain the outpour of the magic within. These can be seen as the continents of Frusnoer's Staff and Frusnoer's Crucigar, yet only those well versed in lore, travel, and magic hold this belief to be true.

His symbol is a staff with a crystal crucigar containing eight orbs of color, representing all eight branches of magic. As the father of modern magic, this can almost always found at a school of magic.

Worshippers
Frusnoer is worshipped by many magic users, particularly wizards. Those who obtain their magic from other means often acknowledge Frusnoer as the great magician, but don't necessarily consider him to be their primary god. Those who use magic for good often ask Frusnoer's blessing when creating new spells or items.

Rituals
Wizards often use staffs as this was Frusnoer's mode of channeling magic. If a staff is not used, inscriptions about Frusnoer or his symbol are usually found in spell books. For those inclined to advance the field of magic, they often consult Frusnoer throughout their journey.

Relationships
Frusnoer is known as the god of magic, or the Great Magician. He is the first born, and first son to Cael-weq and Kekallo. He is the balance to his parents dichotomy. He is closet to his brother Zypriid, as magic can only be understood through the pursuit of knowledge.

History
Frusnoer is the oldest child of his parents. Never married, Frusnoer has made it his mission to understand all there is to know about magic. He fought alongside his father against the old gods, leading to his staff being destroyed.

His brother, Zypriid, could often be found conducting experiments where Frusnoer would utilize magic, and Zypriid recording the results and theories. Together they created much of the written works on magic, now lost.
