Divination

Divination is a magical style that deals with the art of foretelling events and the gathering of hidden information via esoteric means. Though commonly attributed to Fortune-Telling and Prophecy, the Divination school actually encompasses precognition (seeing events before they happen), postcognition (seeing events that have already happened) and scrying (seeing events currently happening, usually those far away/inaccessible).

However, Divination's applications go far beyond merely 'knowing'. It is believed that with enough mystical power and planning, Diviners can manipulate Fate and change the course of history itself.

Divination Styles
Divination itself has many 'styles', much like most of magic. However, its styles tend to only differ in terms of foci and methodology. They all tend to produce the same effects (if done properly), hence their unified classification. As there are a myriad variety of Divining styles, the ones utilised by the King of Derps are listed here as a short list of examples:
 * Cartomancy - The use of cards. The most popular form of Cartomancy is the Tarot. The magical use of cards outside divination may be classified as cartomancy - but this is usually an inappropriate classification.
 * Astrology - The study of heavenly bodies. Horoscopes are the most commonly known divination method.
 * Stichomancy - The use of books, usually by searching random words or passages. Sometimes, the entire book serves as a divinatory piece.
 * Synchronicity - A deeply subjective style. It involves the piecing together of events, statements, and symbols, no matter how trivial, to determine a truth. It is considered to be a 'direct' way of viewing Anima Mundi.

Known Users
Though a popular school of magic, few people can actually be called 'Diviners' due to the many misconceptions surrounding the art.
 * The Archmage Fizzaeus
 * The King of Derps, the foremost expert among the Knights of Round.
