From what I've been able to find out, the name "Magius", like "Magus" is Latin meaning "magician". However, even more interesting is the fact that the name is known and used as a surname in what country more than any other?
Denmark.
Yes, the same country from which the lore of the "Valravne" originated.
It's highly unlikely that this show didn't borrow the name from the Danish myth, saying as how similar the names are and the fact that Valvrave uses a raven (albeit the three-legged version from their own East Asian mythology) as its symbol. Does the name "Magius" further suggest that they are drawing from the Danish folklore?
Also, with the heavy leaning towards magic and myth here, is this show leaning more toward the supernatural than towards aliens? Or both? |
So we r going to have a group of magus.....
