Mysticis

Religion
Mysticis is a Doggie religion. Doggies who are a part of this religion believe in magical arts and have a special connection with spirit Doggies (StarDogs and Howlers), which is why they are usually the ones asking StarDogs for the appropiate weather. They are called Magicae. Because they practise magic, they are often feared by non-Magicae, but they can prove their harmlessness.

Rules of the Religion

 * 1) Never go a day without using magic once you've joined the religion
 * 2) Always wear some dark blue, black or purple.
 * 3) Be kind to all animals that aren't Doggies (by saying this, we're not saying you shouldn't be nice to Doggies).
 * 4) Never call StarDogs unless it's weather-related or a real problem you have. Examples of a real problem is a bad fear of something that's been going on for at least 1.5 years, or a friend/family member that is extremely sick.

Stories and Lessons
They don't have many stories, but they get their spells and magic from a book called Exponentia Liber. They learn spells that are useful in everyday life, like a spell to find lost objects or cook food. They also learn potions, such as a potion for invisibility.

The few stories they do have are about the Doggies that invented magic, called Roko and Merala. In the Exponentia Liber, it says that they desperately had a problem and they were so mad about it they shouted random words that weren't real, and the problem was solved! The following year they invented potions in a similar way, but with ingredients instead of words.

Special Place
Their special place is called a Cantus Locum. Every Wednesday and Friday they go there at 5pm to learn a spell or potion, then they cast a spell to cleanse the entire place. Altogether, that takes around 30 minutes, and after that they all eat star-shaped sugar cookies. Then they thank StarDogs for their time at the Cantus Locum and they all leave.

For Doggies that want to become Magicae, there is a special ceremony to officially make them Magicae. It works like this: The Magicae that runs the Cantus Locum walks the Doggie to the stage at the front of the main room, and sprinkles magic water over them. Then, he/she says 'I announce this Doggie...a Magicae!' Then, the Doggie is given a special bracelet with their name on the back and the Mysticis symbol on the front, which is a 4 pointed star inside a 4-sided diamond shape. It gives them their Magicae powers. They must NEVER take it off, or else their magic will go away!
