Reading __The Alchemyst__ actually gave me the idea for my magic system, while not working completely linear to Michael Scott, I decided to make everyone have their own tricks.

Nicholas Flamel is and has always been one of the most knowledgeable alchemists of all time. Creating the Elixir of Life on a monthly basis he and his wife Perenelle have lived for hundreds of years protecting the mysterious and powerful Book of Abraham from Doctor John Dee, who wants to resurrect the Dark elders that once roamed free to enslave the humani. The way that the magic system works in __The Alchemyst__ is auric. Each and every person in the world has an aura, varying in color and potency. Pending on their colors each person has a specific smell they give off when they channel their powers. Flamel gives off the smell of mint, while Dee gives off the smell of rotten eggs. Each man has their own way of practice, Flamel relies more on his alchemy and Dee uses more auric power.

The way that magic in Tyrestia works is channeled from nature. Each clansmen though has their own ways to bend and twist. Aggression causes branches and trees to knot and thicken, while calm movements just bend and meld the bark and the leaves. Bracken uses his power aggressively, giving him the abilities to call on lightening and fire, and hurl earth at foes. Orin his master is a tranquil shaman, mastering the healing powers of water and the power of shape shifting. Clansmen that are agressive have less power over tranquil elements and vice versa.
