Elven dualist

The elven dualists were specialist wizards who hailed from ancient Cormanthyr.

History
In the time of Myth Drannor, the theory of magic revolved around a fixed circular relationships between the eight schools of magic; arcane wizardly specialists would sacrifice the school or schools that opposed her own and focus primarily on their specialty school with minor interest in the other, non-opposed, schools. The Elven Dualists were the first to challenge this notion. The Dualists would specialize exclusively in the two "opposing" schools of the prevailing theory, to the exclusion of all other schools of magic (with the exception of minor divination and universal spells).

Geography
Elven dualists were found in the following nations and times, but not before the founding of that particular nation :


 * Aryvandaar: before and during the Crown Wars - gold elves only
 * Cormanthyr: all times all elves (When Cormanthor became Myth Drannor, half-elves could become Dualists and gnomes were able to become nelluonkkar)
 * Eaerlann: through the Founding Years - moon elves only
 * Evereska: all times all elves
 * Evermeet: all times all elves
 * Miyeritar: before and during the Crown Wars - green elves and dark elves only

Organization
The titles of the four different dualist schools derived from Auld Dwarvish :


 * Alurakar (Abjuration and Alteration)
 * Dijakkar (Conjuration and Divination)
 * Encikkar (Enchantment and Evocation)
 * Nelluonkkar (Illusion and Necromancy)
