he war drums echo off in the distance,
signaling an attack on the front. The sound of
clashing steel dominates the burning
landscape. The weary and wounded gather in
and around a medical tent, its space long since
reached capacity. The tent's entrance flaps
open; a small girl seemingly uninjured, but her
head held as low as any dying soldier slowly makes her way
out, holding the tattered remains of a soldier's garb in her
hands. She looks up, revealing a pained grimace being
chased away by a burning resolve. She wipes her eyes clear
of tears, then sets them on the battlefield. First she walks,
then she runs, building up to a charge at the front line. She
breaks through the shield wall, screaming all of her pain and
fury at the faceless enemies, and a blinding light consumes
her. The war drums echo again.

Magical Girls are surprisingly, at their core, completely
average people, whether male or female. Most anyone could
become one given the right circumstances, but these are the
lucky few. The one percent who gain the potent ability to
Transform and become the dazzling warriors of light they are
famous for being.
The Power Of A Promise
A Magical Girl draws her power from two things: a vow she
makes early on in her growth, and an Heirloom that she has
somehow inherited which fuels her innate magical ability.
The Heirloom gives her the ability to Transform and aid in
her quest to satisfy her Promise.
Often, but not always, the alternate form brought about by
the Heirloom will be unique to the bearer of the Heirloom,
and will likely change to more closely fit the Promise she
makes.
Never Without Friends
A Magical Girl is nothing without friends to fight for and
alongside. Much of their identity is formed around the
connections they make with their allies, and it is these
connections that often form the basis for their Promise.
