Aura Manipulation

The user conjures enough of their mana, however much they choose, and convert it to a visual aura. This aura can be used to clad the user in it like armor and be used as a defensive layer of protection, a strong source of offense and anything in between.

It is very common for an aura to clad the user's entire body, but what is a little less common is seeing a Mage or Summoner focus it to one specific area of their body. This level of Aura Manipulation isn't usually taught until a Summoner in Training's 3rd Year in a Summoner Training School/Academy.

Elements can be added to an aura, changing its properties and usually changing the appearance along with the benefits of using it. An example of this would be to infused Lightning Magic into one's aura to enhance their speed, reflexes, and, sometimes, durability.
