SURVIVE MAWA SOCIALLY BY KNOWIN THE LATEST TRENDS!!
Much like every other realm, Mahou Wando has it's own general knowledge and trends that are known by its citizens! If you're looking to become the most EPIC mahou around, ya gotta stay up to date on what's HOT! Read the sections below to gain some sweet street knowledge!
AGATHA'S COUNCIL
In Mahou Wando, every major realm-related decision is decided by AGATHA'S COUNCIL. A magical council consisting of the remaining original members of Agatha's creation.
Originally, Agatha's Council consisted of Count Rosencranz, KaiLong Wang, Mao, Miss Amita, AgoKong, and Agatha herself as the head of the council who had the final say on all major decisions.
Count Rosencranz's council seat was revoked after the war. One can make an educated guess on why that happened by reading the CREATION LORE PAGE.
After a few millennia, The Head of the Bunbat Royal Family was given a seat on the council by Agatha after she accommodated their species in Mahou Wando. The council seat was then passed down for generations to every new head of the BunBat royal family, until the last BunBat Prince was disgraced and dethroned. Nowadays, the council seat is held by the elected Bunbat President. Read more about BunBats as a species on the BUNBATS GALORE PAGE.
After Agatha's mysterious disappearance for a thousand years... Chief KaiLong Wang took over as the head of the council by vote. But after an entire TWO YEARS OF... A LOT. He decided it was time to step down as head chief for real, and begin to officially train Star Hargrooves as future-realm-leader-to-be! Star will be getting a seat on Agatha's Council as soon as he's old enough to handle the responsibilities that come with being Mawa's official leader.
MAHOU WANDO HOLIDAYS
Mahou Wando like many many other dimensions has its own unique annual holidays and events! Some of these holidays one might be familiar with - for they might have just come from your dimension! Mahou Wando is home to many unique mahous all with their own cultures, and everyone is welcomed to celebrate their own cultural holidays here.

Before Santa Comes, by tradition, their helper Evergreen Pinecap usually shows up to collect everyone's lists!
New Year
January 1st is the first day of the new year. Not a major holiday, but it's a good day to set some goals and also visit Mao's wishing shrine for yearly wishes~

NOTABLE BRANDS AND CURRENCY
CURRENCY
After you magically convert all of your out-of-dimension currency into Mawabucks, head to the Marketplace and Specialty Shops! AND YES, you can actually liquidize your currency and store it in WEIRD SHIT like a dismembered monster arm or a sword. Simply tap-tap your currency storage item with the shop keeper's, and the transaction goes through. Here's some of the big brand names in Mahou Wando to get your shopping trip started.
MAWALYFE
Mawalyfe is THE biggest social media platform in Mahou Wando. The website was created by multi-billionaire Valery Bellamy, and has been only going up in the current years in terms of interdimensional stock value. Mawalyfe allows users to stream, post statuses, and is a hub for the latest info and gossip in MaWa, so SIGN UP FOR YOUR MAWALYFE ACCOUNT TODAY!
BURGER WIZARD
Burger Wizard is the most well-known fast-food franchise in Mahou Wando. They serve up burgers to mahous 24/7 and do dining, take out, and drive through. It's also infamously regarded as one of the worst places to work at for a young mahou with too much talent, but what can you do. Their burgers are advertised to be literally made with magic. They are currently competing with SAM-WITCH for top sandwich brand dominance.
PATROLLER CULTURE
Those who come into Mahou Wando expecting to get away with crime easily in a new realm discover they are undoubtedly MISTAKEN FAST - For the MAHOU PATROL NEVER RESTS!! Thanks to the realm being populated with super-powered teenagers and just magic users in general, Mahou Wando now has an ACTIVE culture of teenage magical warriors ready to stop crime (and stream it on the internet for clout) at every corner! The police force is pretty dang good too, of course, but the bloodthirsty teens do regularly shine brighter than the adults on social media.
Students studying at Agatha Academy are encouraged to join the patrol, it looks great on college resumes and adults around the realm usually have a higher regard for those who are in the Mahou Patrol. It's not uncommon for mahou patrollers to get free cookies for their acts of service to the realm.

ACCOMMODATING BUNBATS
While not being a part of the original vision for Mahou Wando, when the BunBat species was on the verge of extinction Agatha Hargrooves stepped in to save the survivors from their horrible fate and accommodated the remaining Bunbats in Mahou Wando. Now, these little bunny-bat aliens are everywhere and are a part of Mahou Wando culture! They are still considered interdimensionally endangered though, so please be nice to them-
Funny enough, BunBats are more judgemental within their own communities than from other mahous. Things like ear size, coven members, and tinkering skills are all extremely important to BunBats and some don't take deviations from tradition kindly! Mahous in Mahou Wando are advised to study about their cultural values and trends as to be more sensitive towards their needs.

ALTERNATE SELVES AND CARDVERSE
Ever wonder what alternative versions of yourself might be like...? Well, in Mawa you don't have to!
Due to the ABUNDANCE of Timelords within the realm, and especially because of THESE TWO - MAHOU WANDO HAS BECOME A DITCH IN TIME.
Because of this, it's not uncommon to find ALTERNATIVE VERSIONS OF ONE'S SELF in Mahou Wando!
There can even be more than one version of ones' self here at a time! The ditch's invisible pull is EVER SO MAGNETIZING.
Think of your mahou and their alternative selves' existence as if connected by strings! Aka, if one of them falls in a ditch, others might get pulled in with them~
Causing them to crash meet within the ditch that is the realm of Mawa! How fun!
TLDR: CARDVERSE IS BASICALLY OUR FANCY WAY OF SAYING: LET'S EXPLORE SOME AUS FOR YOUR MAHOUS.
A Drunken Timelord once said...
"Okay so, ere's like, 4 versions of everyone by default usually somethin somethin multiverse theory! Each representin a suit of the cards!
Fer example I'm THE SPADE, right? So ere's like 3 other versions of me out ere! A CLUB, DIAMOND, AND A HEART!
They're all usually similar ta ya in SOME WAY or another, but nobody's ever the same. Shit happens! And that changes a person usually.
And ya can BET that ere's alternative pathways out ere fer things that coulda happened ta ya in life~
Some of these versions of yerself turn dark, or maybe turn out better than you will ever be! It's the luck of the draw really!
But what's important is ta know that they're all parts of YOU, and ya've gotta accept that.
Because ya wouldn't be YOU without all the parts of yerself, now would ya?
So don't be afraid ta go and talk ta some of these alternative selves out ere, jus er uhh! Be careful! Some of em might try ta kill ya like one of mine did! EHEHEH~"
