Awesome, but Impractical | |
| Frontier Magic / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: Cathayan magic works by pooling the magical energies of dozens of mages and channeling them through a single adept. This allows for phenomenal feats of magic, like leveling mountains or damming rivers, but it's kind of useless when you just want to light the cookfire. | |

Boring, but Practical | |
| Frontier Magic / int_39b8d3d6 | comment |
Boring, but Practical: Avrupan magic may not be quite as impressive as Aphrikan or Hijero-Cathayan, but it is the king of useful little spells like making heavy things lighter, speeding up travel, or lighting a fire. | |

Exotic Weapon Supremacy | |
| Frontier Magic / int_421f8eb8 | comment |
Exotic Weapon Supremacy: Or, rather, Exotic Magic Supremacy. Avrupan magic is never as effective as Aphrikan or Hijero-Cathayan. | |

Massive Numbered Siblings: Since seventh sons are powerful, many families have numerous children in pursuit of one. | |

River of Insanity: The Far West functions as this, as very few people who venture out beyond the Great Plains ever come back, and none manage to keep their sanity. | |

Alternate History: It's fairly clear that while we are on Earth, history has not progressed in quite the same way. For instance, there are no Native Americans. | |

Wizarding School: Avrupan magic is a standard school subject from the age of 10. At the university level, all the schools mentioned seem to be exclusively schools of magic. | |
