Does your setting have a magic system?

The use of magic is strict, while everyone is able to learn it, not all are permitted to. Magic in itself is a elitist subject that only nobles have access to, Mages who excel on that skill are then granted permission by a council to learn advanced magic and become Wizards.

Magic primally comes from Gemstones and they are found inside rocks, lakes, caves and such; It allows for anyone to be able to wield magic. Gemstones can usually be found in the following colors: Blue, Red, Gold, and White with the last one being the rarest.

Gemstones can also be used to power up magic objects such as wands, vehicles, and even guns; It is known to be a volitale object that can easily explode under pressure, making it's use as fuel to be dangerous and those who work with it are respected in their field.

Little is known about it's discovery, some claims it was a gift left from the gods, so the people in Terra Luporum could survive during The Great Winter, millions of years ago.

Other claims the old, extinct humans found it, way before their kind vanished from the land, but history books mention there is so records of humans ever existing during the time of the first register of gemstones being used.

The average wolf can only use magic if they have a gemstone in their possession, and even certain magics they use with it have limitations as: They can't cast fire without a source of fire nearby, or use water without a source of water near them.

The exception to the rule are Spellcasters, a rare group of people who can wield magic without limitations, who carry magic blood and can pass down the ability even if it skips a few generations.
