The practitioners of western magic frequently believe they work an ancient art, with tools and techniques passed on from the gods themselves. What few realize is that magic evolved with societies in the far east while western culture was still scrambling together simple spells in huts made of mud and straw. These mysterious arcanists have learned refined, complicated rites and spells that seem esoteric and strange to those not familiar with their ways. Through the manipulation of earth, fire, metal, water and wood, these wu-jen wield arcane power that rivals the strength of the greatest magical traditions in the west.
