Celestial Academy of Mystics

What if you wake up on the morning of your fifteenth birthday to discover a system screen floating over your head? It means you are a Mystic, one of the hundred people born each year who have access to the Celestial system and powers of the universe. What if when you go to get registered as a Mystic at their Academy you discover that all the slots are taken? There are already a hundred mystics in the system. You are a strange anomaly that has never happened in a billion years. Well, you must be none other than Xavier Xerxes. The weird teenager who was bullied for his strange white skin, long snowy hair and pink eyes is now also a Mystic who shouldn't exist. It couldn't have gotten any worse for him. Now he has to attend Celestial Academy to get basic training in leveling up and growing into the full potentials of his powers so he can slay demons and battle monsters from real to realm. He has the opportunity to grow from a human to an Immortal, saving the world along the way. Cool, right? But there's one little problem. Xavier doesn't do anything that could pass off as stressful. No, he prefers to read books in the library. He loves to write stories and poems. He cries through romantic movies. He has never walked farther than a meter in his life. No sporting activity whatsoever. He hates violence. Now they expect him to carry a sword. He is supposed to turn his body into a weapon of destruction, and his mind into a fortress of power. What the hell? How is he expected to survive a day at Celestial Academy when he has been home schooled since he was a child? How is he supposed to kill a bloodthirsty troll when he is scared of spiders? Exercise drills, push ups, war games...meditating? Never before in his life! Right. We all have to wait and see. Hopefully he'll find a way not to die on the first day.

Glossary of Things.

* Nature of the World.

Planet Lazuli is one of the two planets of the Twinkle Frost galaxy existing one trillion miles from the milky way. It's the direct opposite of earth.

It has a cluster of ten rainbow stars to give light during the day and two moons at night. It has a third moon, this one black, that only comes around once in a millennium signaling a terrible disaster.

Most of its population are humans, 99% to be exact. The remaining 1% are what is called Mystics.

The Mystics have access to the Celestial system of the universe, which means they can harness sparks(mana) from nature and level up to their highest potentials. They are also tasked with destroying Monster dungeons and wormholes that appear randomly around the planet.

Each year, only an exact total of a hundred Mystics are born to the planet. It is the job of Celestial Academy to collect them when they turn fifteen ( That's the age when the Celestial System becomes active) and train them to reach their possible ranking in the system.

* The Celestial System.

A Quantum level Spatial Intelligence that comes with every Mystic at birth. It gives them access to the intelligence of the universe that allows them to level up.

Each Mystic born in a year comes with one of four spark colours that tells the nature of powers the mystic would possess at the Elemental level of the system. They are called Affinities.

1) Golden: Fire elemental powers. Lotus symbol is a Dragon.

2) Silver: Water elemental powers. Lotus symbol is a Sea serpent.

3) Bronze: Earth elemental powers. Lotus symbol is a Tortoise.

4) White Pearl: Air elemental powers. Lotus symbol is a Unicorn.

There is a fifth spark colour called Dark Shadow but nothing is known about this one except for the fact that it's an omen for something evil.

The Dark Shadow affinity normally comes with one of the other affinities as a Substitute until the Wizard level when it manifests fully. It's lotus symbol is a Phoenix.

*The System levels from least to greatest:

1) Novice: The Elemental Level.

2) Valor

3) Master

4) Astral: The Spirit Magic Level.

5) Wizard

6) Phantom

7) Celestial: The Immortality Level.

Each level comes with a larger spark pool that can accommodate more mana, abilities, power and faster manifestation. Each level has a specific requirement before advancement to the next level. It also means rising to the next realm of Lazuli. There are seven realms according to the seven levels. Each realm is harder to conquer than the last.

* Soul Creature: Every Mystic must find their animal spirit guide once they gain access to the Celestial system when they turn fifteen years of age.

The soul creatures also have access to the sparks of the universe which allows the Mystic to spend mana on them to increase their abilities.

The soul creature that a Mystic can bond with is unique to their Affinity. Each Affinity has its own kinds of creatures.

*Main Goal of Leveling Up: Mystics are required to reach their full level of potential because only then would they become free of the system and gain Immortality. An immortal is the highest level of existence in the universe. They can reach other worlds, dimensions and universes, and even build their own.

Only five Mystics have ever reached Immortality.
