Individualized magical kloots are a unique and personalized approach to the practice of magic. These kloots, or tools, are specially crafted to align with the energies and intentions of the individual practitioner. **The main idea is that individualized magical kloots are tailored to suit the needs and desires of the individual, allowing for a more powerful and effective magical practice.** Traditionally, magical tools such as wands and athames were crafted based on specific symbolism and materials, often following established traditions and practices. While these tools can still be effective, the concept of individualized magical kloots takes the practice to a new level of personalization and intention. Creating an individualized magical kloot involves a deep understanding of the practitioner's goals, desires, and energetic preferences.
When UTSA students graduate, many receive a class ring. The ring, which serves as a symbol of pride and accomplishment, creates a bond between alums and future graduates. It also connects our graduates' accomplishments to the deep and rich history of San Antonio and Texas: since 2012, every UTSA class ring has stayed overnight at the Alamo the night before the ring ceremony. The rings are hand-delivered by the UTSA Alumni Association in a secure box as part of the cherished tradition.
Antonio Gonzalez III, the first student to wear the Roadrunner Mascot costume, made his debut by hatching from an egg during a basketball pep rally on November 24, 1981. Students voted in a final election in December 1977, and on December 9, 1977, at a bonfire rally, the roadrunner was announced as UTSA s first mascot.

Go…Dillos?: How UTSA’s Mascot Became the Roadrunner
With UTSA’s long-awaited announcement yesterday that football will be added to the athletics program, the Top Shelf decided to take a look at the history of UTSA’s mascot, Rowdy the Roadrunner.
In 1987, Dr. Thomas Greaves, Director of the Division of Social Sciences at UTSA from 1973-1980, donated some interesting artifacts to the university in the hope that they would be given to an archivist. The items included an oversize mock-up of a logo for the “UTSA Dillos” (above) and a drawing of an armadillo. Greaves writes in his letter of donation that “the poster and the armadillo cutout stem from … when UTSA was deciding what to call its athletic team. There was a campus-wide vote between the Roadrunners, the Stars, and the Armadillos, and a vigorous campaign on behalf of each. The armadillos lost, but these two items were part of the wall posters during the election.”
Students indeed elected their own mascot, in the fall semester of 1977. According to an article in the October 1977 UTSA Bulletin entitled “Mascot Choices Bear Up,” students suggested approximately 50 possible mascots in September 1977 (the title references the suggestion of the bear as a possible mascot). The top nine suggestions–the armadillo, eagle, el conquistador, jaguar, puma, roadrunner, star, toro, and vaquero–were put to a vote in November 1977. The votes were tallied, and the top two contenders were announced: the armadillos and the stars.
There were arguments for both. Athletics Director Rudy Davalos had requested the star to be added to the ballot. “The star would be a good mascot for UTSA because Texas is the lone star state,” Davalos is quoted as saying in a November 4, 1977 press release. “The star is neither masculine nor feminine and equally can represent men and women athletes.” The press release states that former Student Representative Assembly member and “strong armadillo supporter” Bruce Garcia argued that “UTSA is located in the Texas hill country and needs a mascot symbolic of this area. The armadillo serves this purpose perfectly.”
Fortunately for the roadrunner, the election was subsequently declared void by the Student Representative Assembly and a new election was scheduled. The nine original candidates were included on the new ballot, with a write-in option. On November 23, with 1900 of UTSA’s 7350 students voting, the two new leaders were announced: the armadillo and the roadrunner. Students voted in a final election in December 1977, and on December 9, 1977, at a bonfire rally, the roadrunner was announced as UTSA’s first mascot.

Reviews for "The Power of Intent: Infusing Your Magic with Individualized Kloots"
1. Sarah - 2/5 stars
"Individualized magical kloots was not what I expected at all. The storyline was confusing and hard to follow, with the magical elements feeling forced and out of place. The characters were one-dimensional and lacked depth, making it hard to connect with or care about their struggles. Overall, I was disappointed and would not recommend this book to others."
2. Mark - 1/5 stars
"I couldn't get through more than a few chapters of Individualized magical kloots before giving up. The writing style was convoluted and filled with unnecessary details that dragged the story down. The pacing was slow, and not enough happened to keep my interest. The concept of individualized magic had potential, but it was poorly executed in this book. I found it to be a tedious read and would not recommend it."
3. Jennifer - 2/5 stars
"Individualized magical kloots had an interesting premise, but it fell flat for me. The world-building was lacking, and I struggled to understand the rules and limitations of the magic system. The plot felt disjointed and rushed, with too many subplots and loose ends that were not properly tied up. The characters were forgettable and their motivations were unclear. Unfortunately, I found this book to be underdeveloped and unsatisfying."
