newmonster    "Cloud Caster"
descr         "Though powerful magicians, the magic of the cloud casters seem to be a mere memory of an ancient elemental magic. Their mages seem to mainly dwell on confused mutterings and overly complicated ancient rituals. In my attempt to record the magic of Elysium, your very humble author has had the chance to talk with some of their foremost cloud casters. However I was met with strange mutterings, and shown ancient and overly complicated rituals. They did not seem to understand the simplest logic of humoral theory. When trying to explain to them how their magic actually works, I was only met with contempt and misunderstandings. The haughty cloud casters seem to be rooted in their archaic ways, and do not see the progress of modern arcana.^ My suspicions were confirmed when I discussed the matter with the most esteemed Aeolia, wind mage at the Imperial Academy. She has suggested a theory that their magic stems from ancient elemental mages who struck an eternal deal with powerful elemental beings, and their magics are simply a set of rituals aimed at appeasing those elementals."
