Spell Descriptions

Work in progress.

This listing contains all spells available to all magic users, but not every spell is usable by every magic user. A list of spells by occupation also is available.

Wizard List

Most spells require warming before use. Warmed spells cancel if you rest, cast them, or take significant damage (requiring rewarming).

Offensive spells may be resisted by targets with inherent abilities, leaving them unaffected despite successful casting.

Spell Types

• Character Spells: Target yourself, another player, a creature, or a group.
• Path Spells: Directed geographically, into a location, or along a path.
• Self Spells: Target only yourself.

Thaumaturges can attempt spells above their skill level if recorded in their Spell Book, but success chance decreases with the gap.
