The Dragon Mage is part of a cloak-and-dagger dragon cult from a remote part of the world. The members of this cult are not only respected but also accepted by dragons and live together with them in a community. Only a chosen few are granted the honour of being instructed by the dragons for training in the ancient dragon magic. A magic that comes from a dimension beyond this world. This energy can take on the powerful T-Energy, which is the source of all life and all magic on Ancaria.
Sacred 2 All Classes
For centuries, the cult of the Dragon Mages has thrived in the remote regions of the world, in places like the extreme south, beyond the sea, or in the vast system of underwater caverns to the north. For the adepts studying the magic of the Dragons, there is only one goal, for which they would be willing to do anything: become one of the Dragon Mages. Only the most powerful who complete this training are capable of assuming the form of a dragon and of using the concentrated power of dragon magic. Only they have the privilege of being allowed to carry the title “Dragon Mage”.
But it is not simple: to prove his power and expertise in the magical arts, the aspiring adept must overcome a journey full of pitfalls in the continent of Ancaria. There he must find his predecessor Dragon Mage, defeat him in a duel, and kill him. This mission is required by the law that the Dragons call “The Word,” and is the only way to rise to the coveted title and receive the Mark of the Dragon. The Elder Dragons sometimes rely on the most promising adherents to carry out special tasks, but the Dragon Mages on the continent are always ready to hinder their would-be successors, and sometimes resort to deception… or betrayal.
