- | Six mysteries: Earth, Water, Spirit, Air, Fire and Iron. | + | There are two broad types of magic in // |
- | ===== Standard Abilities | + | ===== Formulaic Magic ===== |
- | ==== Earth ==== | + | All magic in this setting is based around the idea of fixed spells that can be learnt and then used as often as necessary, possibly causing fatigue depending on your level of skill and the power of the spell being cast. A spell can be boosted to make it more powerful when cast - so a spell with a short range can be cast with a longer range if you have sufficient skill. |
- | === Summon Earth Elemental === | + | This allows some degree of flexibility, |
- | Summon elf (plant) or goblin (earth) elementals. | + | Rune and Book magic allow boosting is slightly different ways. Because there are only a finite number of runes (they were taught to humanity by the gods) there is little chance of overlap between these spells, so a 'low level' rune can be boosted to be as effective as a 'high level' rune. |
- | === Fertility Rites === | + | Book spells are invented by human wizards, and new ones are being invented all the time. Lower level spells are easier |

+ | ===== Sanity ===== | ||
+ | Sanity is an important part of both magic systems. Learning magic can be hard, but it can be made easier by taking shortcuts that can leave a wizard damaged. Risk of sanity loss is always a choice - if you don't want to take the risks then you don't have to. But the rewards can be very tempting. |
