Here is some information on magic that I dug up off of the internet. Most of this information comes from the original Sword World rpg and is related to how the ancient kingdom of Kastruel developed magic.
Magic Systems of Kastruel:
Fundamental Magic (Sorcery)
Large Magic (Elemental)
Summoning Magics (Conjuring)
Enchanter
Enlarged Magics (Enhanse)
Spirit Magic (Necromancy)
Hallucinatory Magic
(Illusion)
Base Magic (Creation)
Spirit Magic (Chamu)
Unified Magic (Wizardry)
Origin of Kastruelian Magic
The ten systems of magic were created by the "Founder" a great wizard
from the ancient Kingom of Kastruel who was also responsible for the creation
of that ancient kingdom.
Each system of magic was called a "Gate" and each Gate was ruled over by a Noble of Kastruel who passed down the tittle in a hereditary type system. Every 30 years the Gate Lords would hold a meeting to select a new Emperor to rule for the next 30 years.

Large Magic (Elemental)
Elemental mages manipulate base power to mainly create aggressive effects.
They harnes "chaotic magic" to create the desired effecst by combining
two elemental forces. For example they would combine "land" and "flame"
to create "magma". Madan Barusas is a well known Elemental mage who
developed the idea of combining elemental forces to power technological
contraptions.

Summoning Magics (Conjuring)
Summoners use magic to create a gate to pull other creaters or objects
too them. One well known summoner was Hadoa Geraruk who developed
the Meteor Strike spell. He tried plotted to overthrow Emperor Ramsey
of Kastruel by starting a civil war and put Lord Azunadeir in power but
they were defeated and sentanced to death for there actions. He also
created the "Deepest Labyrith" in what is now known as Kannon. The
Labyrinth is considered the largest Demon Trap in existance and a gate
still exists there, sealed and watched over by Wart of the original Six
Heroes of legand.
Spells

Enchanter
Enchanters manipulate items and create magical objects with their use
of magic. They are also capable of creating golems. One well
known enchanter was Bunn who created the Anburedo for the magical Kingdom
of Lamrais. Another great Enchanter was Buran who created the magical
air fortresses that the kingdom of Kastruel used to maintain their power
over Forceria. He aided Lord Azunadeir with his ambition to overthrow
Emperor Ramsey.

Enlarged Magics (Enhance)
Enhancement magic is used to unlock the hidden potention of the physical
body. Ramsey, the 152nd and final Emperor of Kastruel was one of
the most well know of these type of magicians. He revived the infinite
magical power of Kastruel by building a Pinical of Magic, and made this
place his throne. Lord Azunadeir tried seizing the throne by calling
for a reelection for the throne, causing a civil war to break out.
Ramsey's side won but he was killed and his son Faram was made emperor
who later renamed the capital city of Kastruel Furion after himself.

Primal Magic (Creation)
Mages adept in the primal gate are capable of making objects or manipulating
matter to whatever they desire. The more skilled primal magicians
are capable of creating living magical creatures. It is believed
that the gods were so adept in shaping primal forces that they used this
type of magic to manipulate and create various creatures in Forceria.

Spirit Magic (Chamu)
Mages trained to use the spirit gate are capable of manipulating spirits.
The mages of Kastruel were said to be so powerful that they could actually
destroy the souls of their enemies. Mages capable of doing this were
the most prized assasins and this was Prince Fuaramis's favorite way of
disposing his enemies. Leigh Buraser was one of the most well known
sprit mages.

Unified Magic (Wizardry)
Only the most gifted practitioners of magic are able to follow this
path since their main goal is to master each of the other nine gates.
One well known wizard was Fuaram who was Emperor Ramsey's sone. He
was able to learn all nine gates and even discovered the secrets of the
gates while still very young. After his father was slayne durring the civil
war to depose him, Fuaram became Emperor in his place.
No true wizards survive in the world of Forceria except for Karla the Grey Witch who watches over the savage tribes and tries to guide them in her own way. She realizes that the arts developed by Kastruel have been lost and that the magic of the world has been weakened and awaits the day when they are revived and rejuvenated. The only mage who would have know what had happened to the magic was possible Monkey Ban but he has been dead for hundreds of years.
As the name suggests, the branch of wizardry contains all of the spells listed above.
