Broomstick

Broomsticks are a species of magical beast depicted in the world of Reign of the Seven Spellblades.

Description
Broomsticks are life-forms that live in symbiosis with mages, allowing them to ride them and feeding off of their mana. Common household brooms originated as the corpses of broomsticks.

At Kimberly Magic Academy, Professor Dustin Hedges kept a stable of broomsticks of the family Scopae and genus Besom for student use.

Abilities
Broomsticks could be extremely fast depending on the individual and the rider. However, they had a flight ceiling dictated by the density of magical particles in the air. Diana Ashbury's signature "Ashbury Turn" exploited this by riding her broom to its flight ceiling and falling off, then catching the falling broom and using the increased closing velocity to assist in unhorsing her opponent.
