Lore
Warriors are nonmagical peoples who wield Might (Martial Arts), and the best Warriors do so artfully. The Runiverse is a world of aesthetics, and some say this makes it a Wizard’s world, because they wield Magic (Arcane Arts).Swords and Sorcery. Might and Magic. Wizards and Warriors have banded together since time immemorial.— ElfJTrul
While Magic can be anything the heart desires, Might is limited by physical ability. However, the mostly highly-regarded martial artists seem to briefly tap into Magic at their peak performance, but these Warriors would almost never claim to be using “Magic.” To a Warrior, great martial arts are the result of hard physical work and training,—not spending hours in dark corners of the library, smoking pipes, and waving one's hands around saying, "Abracadabra."
Relationship Between Wizards and Warriors
The relationship between Wizards and Warriors in the Runiverse is ever-shifting, varied, and complex. Both Wizards and Warriors are comprised of multiple different groups and factions, each of which has their unique view of their counterparts "across the aisle." Individual Wizards and Warriors have also formed their own alliances, friendships, rivalries, and enmity towards other individuals, regardless of their faction's general attitude.
According to 
Magus Tumbaj of the Mount (3147), "One should not think of the domains of might and magic as two wholly separate categories. Rather they exist as a vesca pisces and come forth from the same place of power! Each aims to bend the world by will. One by gross means; the other, attained by the subtle. Warriors often pray, meditate, or have some sort of aesthetic practice to raise their mana and tune the mind, body and spirit. This is why the warrior monks exist. A few examples I have glimpsed from other realms would be:
• King Arthur and the Magic of Merlin
• The Rosicrucian Knights
• Magic Scrolls worn by Japanese Samurai
• The altered stages of consciousness experienced by The Beserkers
• Magic summoned by druids for the Vikings before battle and rune-carved weapons.
Those are only a few examples of how !magic is an integral part of the warrior lifestyle!"
