Writing Worlds with Words

Arcana of Ithia: The Paceri.

The Paceri were a highly ordered militant arcanist order. They are often seen as the predecessors of the Magi. The Paceri known for their glowing swords of colorful fire and cloaks of bright wildflowers. The Paceri once helped maintain peace and prosperity among the Citystates when they still lingered in the Lands of Maria. But their power was diminished when the Marok broke through the pass and many stayed behind the delay the advance and allow the Mealites to escape to Dophia. They never recovered and during the wars and turmoil of settling the new world the Paceri order fell. 

The Paceri have maintain enchanted swords made of living fire colored based on their personalities. The creation of a Paceri sword was a sacred task as was the collecting of the flowers to make their cloaks. When they reached higher levels, they were to craft flowery crowns. Paceri do not draw on Words of Power but can shape powerful curative, protective, and earthen spells. While bound in their cloaks most low magic will wash over them harmlessly. The main Paceri order was destroyed by Markov Hybori.
