Now think as you might noble warrior but magic is real, and as we in the 21st century approach the 8th age of magic allow me to explain to you the history of magic.
Ever since the beginning of the universe there has been magic. But like all good things magic comes and goes. Evolution as we know it is thanks to magic. The first fire, jesus' miricles, and all the creatures of myth. All because of magic. But allow me to explain the real important part of magic in the world. Starting in 1085 (just before the beggining of the first crusade) the 7th period of magic began. We now realaise why the Crusades where fought , not just for the possesion of the so called holy land but for the Magical artifacts that rested there. Now before the crusades started, the catholic church and the muslums decided to have a contest of sorts to decide the ranks of the battlemages, elite warriors skilled in the useage of miricles or magics. The most coveted position these future battlemages fought for was the archmages position. The archmage's position is held above all others, save the pope, or the muslum leader.

You are here in this place soldier because you are the descendant of one of these battlemages or possibly one of the two archmages themselves.

There is only one way to know for sure. Dawn this helmet and dive deep into your genetic memory, find your ancestor and live out his or her lives as a battlemage in the tournements, in the crusades and then return to fight the magical wars here in the 21st century.

OOc: so heres the story, every now and then magic returns to the world. And now in the 21st century scientists have predicted its return again. A secret group calling themselves the templar (for the good nations) or the MFF (magical freedom fighters for the Evil nations), have taken you to a under ground facility as you are a descendant of some of the worlds finest battlemages. You are to aceesse your genetic memory and find out how your ancestors did battle with magic in the past so you may know how to use it in the present)There is going to be 3 parts to this story. The cureent one called Battlemages, the second called the crusades and the third called Modern combat. Remember there are 2 tournements going on in part one, one for each side.

*cool ancestor although I hate to be a bastard but in the RP magic only comes into the world in periods and your ancestor having 1 hundred years of experience with it is a bit unrealistic (unless you could give me a legitimete reason he survived over 100 years waiting for the next period of magic.)
