Practitioner (culture)
Aversaria has long been defined by its Magi, their power integrated into the very identity of the empire. These Magi, though present everywhere, would begin to cluster at specific locations, the Mayikrata and its satellite academies becoming home to a culture unique from the rest of the Aversarians. Though Magi are not the majority within these regions, their importance in local practices cannot be understated.
The term "Practitioner" originates from a group of administrators, who coined it as a shorthand for the Mayikprolollans members. Over time, the Magi began to spread it to their inferiors, in an attempt to cultivate a loyal following. This has been largely successful, creating a culture that exists to serve Magic above all else. Those who wield it are to be raised above society, and to serve those with it is the noblest calling, for it raises one closer to their glory. Due to this exaltation, many Practitioners will avoid pursuing advancement, with the idea of Magi supremacy having been reinforced for their whole lives.
