THE HISTORY OF MAGIC
Everything in Loonia is filled with magic, including the living creatures like Evoloons, their companions, and the fauna and flora. Evoloons use this magic to evolve and modify their body (with upgrades). The magic itself is strongly affected by the environment. For example, a creature living in an aquatic environment will use magic differently than one living in a desert.
The very first Evoloons didn't have much control over magic at first. Changes in their anatomy would occur unexpectedly. Life was hard then. Evoloons were primal and knew very little of the world. Their body changed to adapt to the environment they were living in. Evoloons learned how to use magic from interacting with their surroundings, but later learned that they could shape magic themselves to fit or change their way of life. Back then, Evoloons where strongly attuned to a specific discipline of magic. These first Evoloons are now known as the Ancients.
Evoloons progressed, learning how to create homes and how to travel. They were not as vulnerable and were no longer exposed to only one specific type of magic. They needed to be adaptable to many environments and lifestyles. They became the Evoloons we know now, born like a blank canvas and able to easily learn any type of magic.
THE MAGIC COMPANIONS
On Loonia, there are creatures that are not only filled with magic, they are born from it. They are very elusive but are very attracted by love, generosity and compassion. These creatures like to attune to a specific discipline of magic. Evoloons learned how to attract these creatures to have them as companions. They are what we call the Discipline Companions. Evoloons can only attract one companion of each kind in their lifetime. It is said that there are other ways to attract discipline companions than a huge demonstration of altruism, but the Evoloon who wants to take this path will have to show a great dedication to the magic discipline the companion was born from.
THE ORDER
The Order is a group of Evoloons who represent the magic disciplines and who have a key role to play for the Evoloon community. These Evoloons trained all their life to fulfill their role, usually too complex or demanding for regular folks.
The Order was created a long time ago, when Evoloons realized they could benefit from other Evoloons knowledge and skills. They are not leaders, they are more like guides and mentors.

UNLOCKING A DISCIPLINE
In order to get some upgrades or a basic companion, your Evoloon must first understand the nature of the related magic discipline.
There are many ways to unlock a discipline:
- Your Evoloon can attune to the discipline. To do so, you must complete an art requirement (described above and on the Upgrade List).
- Your Evoloon can complete the Trial of Categories.
- Your Evoloon can use a Tome of Discipline. This item can be obtained from events and activities or from a Travis for Hire Ticket.
- Your Evoloon can use an Evobooster 5000 Randomizing Crank which has a small chance to unlock the cyber category. This item can be obtained from events and activities or from a P.E.B.K.A.C. for Hire Ticket.
- This is still not totally understood, but it is said that groups of Evoloons can be unknowingly interconnected by magic and that some powerful Evoloons can affect those connected to them. Ancient Evoloons are so strongly attuned to a specific type magic that they facilitate the understanding of this discipline to the Evoloons connected to them. If you own an Ancient, their associated discipline is automatically unlocked for all your Evoloons.
