Sorcerer Abilities

A sorcerer is a being (normal or supernatural) who through study and practice can use magic.

• Spells: Sorcerers require spells to use magic.
  • Spells must be acquired by some means.
    • Spells are usually found in ancient tomes.
    • The majority of found "spells" are utter fictions and/or heavily coded, and therefore useless.
    • Some sorcerers gain their spells through infernal contracts. More details on the infernally contracted will follow at some point in the future.
    • VERY knowledgeable sorcerers can make new spells, but these are extraordinarily rare.
  • Spells require components.
    • Generally the more powerful the spell the more components it requires.
    • All spells require ingredients, materials that range from relatively common to impossibly rare.
    • Most spells also require spoken components, usually in ancient and/or mythical dialects.
    • Most spells require a series of physical gestures.
    • Some spells require a staged scene with magic circles, candles and the like.
    • Some spells can benefit from and/or require multiple sorcerers casting in unison.
• Magic Items: Some sorcerer spells can imbue normal items with magical properties.
  • Potions are the most common type of magical item, and the easiest to produce
  • Jewelry is the second most common type of magical item, with amulets and rings far outstripping other types of jewelry.
  • Other items are much less common, and can be just about anything, from a pebble to a building.
