Mana Elements (Web Novel)

There are seven Colours of Magic that a person with mana can have. They represent attributes and divine colours of the Eternal Five and the God of Darkness and the Goddess of Light. Laynobles normally have one up to two attributes, mednobles two to three and archnobles having up to seven. Having all seven attributes is quite rare and even more rarily at the time of a noble's baptism.

At the baptism ceremony the child holds up their hand to the Schutzaria's shield and the gems on the shield will light up the different gems depending on their magic affinity. When a noble infuses their mana into a feystone, the feystone will change into the person's primary colour. The darker the feystone is, the less affinity there is, with the lighter the feystone is, the more affinity they have.

People who suffer from the Devouring have in general a weak natural mana colour, making them easy to dye. Without any other influences, their mana will take the colour of their duchy.


 * Ferdinand has all seven attributes.
 * Myne had all seven attributes due to being dyed by Ferdinand's mana in the process of healing her wound during the trombe extermination. This is indicated by her statement that Ferdinand's liquified mana tastes sweet to her (the red liquid she drank before Ferdinand searched through her memories). But before dyeing her colour was a pale yellow representing Ehrenfest's colour.
 * Rozemyne has all seven attributes, but when dyeing feystones her natural attribute emerges, a very pale yellow. This is due to her having the Devouring.
 * Charlotte has five elements: Light, Water, Fire, Wind and Earth
 * Wilfried has six elements. His main affinity is water, resulting in his mana color being a pale green..
 * Damuel has only an affinity for water, resulting in a deep green mana color.
