Editing Tom Wilcox (section)

=== Mage ===
The mage universe combines elements from superhero and cyberpunk settings. Tom remains enigmatic and reserved, wielding powerful runic magic while retaining his signature attire revealing his crotch. He adopts a tunic, necklace, and cuff from earlier AI concepts, now adorned with runic motifs. Draxon utilizes forbidden magic to absorb power from mages.

This universe places Nethington in an earlier timeline where isolation reigns and the kingdom holds sway. Tom forms a forbidden romance with Oliver, who desires to understand magic. Their agreement mirrors the cyberpunk scenario: Tom aids Oliver’s magical exploration in exchange for his assistance in dismantling Draxon, under the assumption that Draxon wouldn’t anticipate a submissive prince yielding power to a civilian.

While capable of multiverse disruption like the superhero universe, this magical realm operates on fantasy principles and “planes” exist throughout, making it difficult for magic to breach without first acknowledging its existence – something lacking in this world. Unlike superheroes, mages here lack the awareness to manipulate the multiverse directly.
