I have been doing some major work on Rin magic during my short absence (Family Vacation and also needed some time to think on things) So me and my brother had a harry potter montage in the car so I thought why not give the Rin their own magical schools of sorts.

Note: Females are far more likely to become magic users then males (65% are females)

Now first let's get into the magic users themselves. They are called the Exponentiae in High Rin and come into 4 main classes the Revealus, Visius, Viderea, and Materia. Now lets get into the classes shall we:

Revealus:

Revealeers reveal messages sent from other Exponentiae or from the gods themselves (Who they refer to as the Over soul) They are the middle link in the chain in a way only being able to reveal the true purpose of a message. They are the least common of all Exponentiae and are highly valued.

Visius:

The most common types of magic users are Visius. They are called Visionaries by most and send and receive visions. They communicate through a series of either images, runes, or both. They are also the only magic users with a deep connection to the Aluiditerium and thus are also guides. Thus the Ordo Visius is split into two classes the Visionaries and the Guides (Ducitus)

Viderea:

The Viderea or Seers see into the near future. They can sort through multiple futures to find the most likely. They also receive visions in a way by seeing the future of a individual. There are hundreds of futures but the Viderea sort out the unlikely and try to find the most likely futrue that will happen.

Materia:

The Materia are the basic Exponentiae pretty much every Revelaus, Visius, and Viderea are able to be a Materia. A Materia as what we would see as material magic (Fireballs, lightning bolts, and all that stuff) although a few Exponentiae are born only as Materia (Mostly Males) they are stronger by ten fold when it comes to this magic.

Each of the 4 Exponentiae classes have their own Ordo which has it's own Schola (Think School) to teach the Exponentiae how to use their magic on the basic/ need to know basis. Each school has it's own symbol and coat of arms, they go as follows:

Schola Revealus:

Black and White. Horizontal strips 6 in total with the eye of janus upon the shield.

Schola Visius:

Red and yellow. Checkered shield with a black dragon.

Schola Viderea:

Blue and white. A shield split into 2 halves with a large tree in between (On the white side the tree is blue and vice versa)

Schola Materia:

Red and black. A shield split into 4 sections with a white Tau cross.

Each school is just the basic starter to things. If the state deems that a Expodentiae has further potential that would be unlocked by further schooling then they are sent to the Schola Maximus Aeternum to train further in the arts of magic.

Now Expodentiae do not choose their life nor their power that is what the gods and state do. If a child is seen to have magical ability they are quickly taken away from their families and sent to one of the Scholas to train. After that they are assigned their duty or are sent to Schola Maximus Aeternum. Thus Expodentiae are loyal to the state and view it as a father/mother figure in their life.

After a Expodentiae have graduated from one of the many Schola and have been given an assignment they are given a small trinket of sorts (About as large as a watch and has on one side the seal of the empire and the eye of janus on the other) These allow travel throughout the empire and a bit of political power (Each Expodentiae share equivalent ranking with a Pilus Centurion and out rank most government officials)

After this the Expodentiae are divided into 2 main classes. Militum Expodentiae and Civilis Expodentiae and after this they break down into what organization they are sent too and such.

Some Expodentiae have already been stated to have multiple powers. The most famous would be clerics and the machine speakers. But the rarest of all are the Legionary Expodentiae... Nothing more needs to be said about those.

Each Expodentiae themselves are pretty powerful but to truly harness their power they make use of Cyrus crystals. Normally in the form of jewelry.
