Epic Magic

Epic Magic also called High Magic is the highest form of magic used by arc mages of Avalon those who have years of experience. The limits of epic magic are much higher than normal magic permanently altering climate, making new species, and even becoming a god. This magic is heavily guarded due to the immense danger it can pose to the cosmos.   Epic Magic requires a multitude of components to work properly spending on the spell. To even be eligible to be cast epic spells one must have direct exposure to the arconis, it's light, it's unique stellar matter & spirit. Epic spells have an extremely high requirement for mana requiring collaborative casting of many mages funneling their mana into the caster each caster giving their mana must also be arc mages although this can be supplemented with the spirit of mortals & animals, the sacrifice of the caster either body parts or even their very life.   Even when the mage has enough mana to use a high magic spell it will still yield immense exhaustion to the user's physical stamina and spell casting capabilities for a time casting a tenth level spell will make the mage unable to cast spells above sixth level for up to 6 months, eleventh level spells make the usage of any spell above a cantrip impossible for 2 years, & a twelfth level spell makes any spellcasting impossible for 50 years. Epic spells have a long casting time depending on the level it needs hours or even days of concentration to cast, this is aided by a barrier casted around the ones casting the spell which defends them during the casting of the spell.

Utility

Epic Magic can be used to decimate enemies in combat but so can typical magic epic magic is used to change the world in other ways.

Social Impact

Epic Magic had set the absolute pinnacle in magical might and experienced the power to challenge the gods. Those capable of this magic are seen as the pinnacle of experience in the art of magic and usually beloved by the masses but in other societies feared and hunted.
"Epic Magic is the highest form of magic attainable from those who are higher than the most advanced mages. Those who spent thousands of years studying magic invented this magic although due to it's power it comes with many restrictions. Many epic mages are needed for this magic and often a sacrifice must be made to conduct these rituals, usually a person is lost or a part of them is gone forever. Because of these restrictions epic magic is rarely used but when we change the world in ways never thought possible. - Merlin"
