Solomon is the fourth son and the youngest child of the main branch of the Morrow family. In a time where first sons inherit nearly everything, he was doomed to a comfortable and dull existence. One in which most would languish in luxury. Solomon wanted more for himself. He wanted to be a true noble. Not just a man with a title, but a man who represents the best of what they can be. An example of how one should treat their land and people. With his father dying, he saw the opportunity to forge his will, and change his destiny. Of course, the lands he inherits come with secrets and will lead him to powers and responsibility beyond what he'd ever expected. Noble Arcana follows Solomon on a journey into magic and secrets. He will become a powerful mage with a focus on forbidden magics. These include all the usual suspects such as necromancy and blood magic, as well as more obscure magics like chronomancy and animancy. He will be hiding his newfound powers from others as every use puts him and those under his care in danger. Setting is roughly Victorian. MC is good to morally grey.
