EMOTION mages have the ability to influence the emotions of others, be it intentionally or not; they are often very persuasive.

FIRE mages have typical fire powers, as well as a natural resistance to heat; sometimes even to the extent of being able to comfortably sit in molten rock.

EARTH mages have the ability to control rocks and dirt, moving it around to their will. They have an innate knowledge of different types of rocks and stones, as well as an uncanny ability to find certain types of rocks.

LIGHT mages have the innate ability to tell if someone is lying or not, and also can create hovering light sources, illusions, or holograms at will.

LIFE mages have a deep connection with the living things surrounding them; some are even able to commune with animals and plants.

PLAGUE mages have the ability to magically cure most common diseases instantly (and cure most others with a little bit more work).

WIND mages have the ability to control air to their will, as well as the ability to perfectly mimic any noise they've ever heard.

FUTURE mages have the ability to tell the future; whether this can be controlled or happens at random is mostly dependent on the level of skill someone has trained their abilities to. It is most easily focused on objects; seeing where an object will be in the future, or something like that; people are much more difficult to focus on,

WATER mages have typical water powers; able to control water to their will. Most can breathe underwater.

DARKNESS mages have the ability to erase the memories of others; however, they can only erase small, individual memories (so for example, not memories of a whole person; just one perhaps embarrassing event.)

DEATH mages have, oddly enough, the ability to teleport. They also have the ability to sense when someone; either someone nearby, or someone they're very emotionally close with; is in distress in some way.

PAST mages have the ability to gain occasional glimpses into the past; whether this can be controlled or happens at random is mostly dependent on the level of skill someone has trained their abilities to. It is most easily focused on objects; seeing where an object was at a certain point in its past, or something like that; people are much more difficult to focus on,
