====== Magic: ======
Known at the moment, there are two types of magic. Inherent Magic is magic that is on all the time, or can be activated fairly easily. Most race/subrace magic is inherent, unless it is specifically stated otherwise. Casted magic is magic which requires a level of difficulty. Casted magic tends to require the caster to "prep" the spell over several posts. It will often require runes, or sacrifices, or reagents, or special words. Casted magic is magic which will drain the caster of energy, and the higher level the spell, the more energy it will drain. Casted magic can be used in combat, but can be a gamble, especially if someone is coming at you with a sword, and you're doing a spell that needs the blood of a mermaid and 15 minutes to cast.
Most supernatural races start with two casted magic classes at level 1. Levels can rise through the course of the game and the expenditure of XP. The levels are just guides, and if you can think of things that would potentially fit in the mentioned level, you can do them. You are at your leisure to create your own spells and effects.
Casted magic has different durations depending on the difficulty of the spell, some (like Ritual) can be permanent, whilst others such as combat magics have a much shorter duration. Quite often, magic affecting other people requires proximity, even touching them, or some artifact of their person or belongings.
Magic is based on three things. The more you have of each, the easier your spell will be to cast:
1) Time -- The amount of time invested in casting and preparation.
2) Energy -- The personal magical energy of the person, or energy gained through other means.
3) Reagents -- Reagents are anything used to enact the spell, such as incantations, precious stones, feathers, candles, sigils, etc.
The less you have of one of these, the more you will need of the others. Casting a spell in less time will wear you out and require better reagents, for instance.
Please note that all spells here are only suggestions to show the general power levels and limits of magics. You can feel free to create your own spells, within reason. If you are uncertain about a spell you'd like to make, feel free to ask an ST.
NOTE: Typically casting magic takes two times the rank's number of posts (i.e. level 3 x 2 = 6 posts). This can be reduced, or waved altogether if those you are in a scene with agree to permit it. In a ST ran scene the ST is the one who decides this.
===== CASTED MAGICS: =====
==== ALCHEMY: (Manipulation of matter.) ====
Level 1: You know the basics of alchemy and transubstantiation. With enough time and the correct reagents, you can turn any base element that you can touch into any other element. It must be an element, such as carbon, and not a blend, such as bronze (an alloy). You can destabilize the matter in an object, or make it stronger. Permanent alchemy -- which does not revert after a time, may require ST approval, but the duration is maleable based on the story and spell. (Or we'll have gold everywhere!)
Level 2: You can now do complex alchemy on alloys from afar, on things you can merely see, without reagents. Your alchemy works on plants and small lifeforms.
Level 3: You now have the ability to do alchemy on living, sentient beings. You can still only affect what you can see, but could, for instance, turn someone's hand into lead temporarily.
==== BIOKINESIS: (Manipulation of body.) ====
Level 1: You have exceptional control over your body, and can enhance your strength, speed, or dexterity. You have the ability to cut off your sense of pain or pleasure. You can sharpen your senses to a supernatural level. Generally, you can do only one of these things at a time, two if you want to burn energy extraordinarily quickly.
Level 2: You can do things which would be considered quite complex with your body, such as turn your bodily fluids acidic, produce toxins or aphrodisiacs in your bodily fluids, change sexes, cause your nails to grow and harden like claws, or harden your skin to a stone-like armored state. You can have perfect muscle memory. In general, you are limited to things which are possible in the animal kingdom, abilities that animals have. For instance, while you could spin a web, you could not turn your arm to steel. This should not be confused with fleshcrafting which can change the shape of your body. You can, with great effort, use biokinesis on others who are willing and focused on accepting your magic.
Level 3: You can use your biokinesis on the unwilling, causing their bodies to respond to your spells.
==== CALLIGRAMANCY (Requires Paper or Ink): ====
Level 1: You can animate small origami creatures to have them deliver messages, or just be cute. You can fold a sheet of paper into a pocket knife or dart. You can create invisible inks or notes only readable by certain people. You can induce the ink from ONE page to reproduce into a copy of that page. You can cause any written message you can touch to alter itself. You can create paper charms which give a temporary boost to an object's luck when affixed to that object. (One-use charms that give +2 on an UNRANKED roll involving that object. For instance, if you had no throwing, but attached a charm to a knife and threw it, you'd be at +2. You can only have one charm in play at a time.)
Level 2: You can cause paper to grow or shrink and change color to suit your uses. You can make mundane, non-complex, one-use objects out of paper, such as a hammer, umbrella, or clothes. You could make a shield or sword out of paper, and have it be as useful as a regular shield or sword. You can create paper animals up to 200lbs to fight for you, or a paper horse to ride. Items created in this manner last only 24 hours and then lose their edge. You can make one per spell, up to a total of three at a time. Ink will now align with your thoughts, be it text, or a picture -- you can simply create whatever you have in mind with your mind. Though, if you have no artistic skill it will not be awe-inspiring. You can slap paper charms on things to cause a -2 to the next roll (ranked or unranked roll) involving that OBJECT, or the person must spend a round removing the charm. You can have three total charms in play at a time. You can temporarily imbue other level 1 magics you personally know into a person for them to use for up to 48 hours by giving them a tattoo. Including humans -- yes, humans would be able to cast that magic. Once imbued, your own ability to cast that magic is half as strong (if you do one person) or disappears completely (if you give it to two other people) until the 48 hours has passed.
Level 3: You can create complex vehicles and temporary structures using paper, which now grows or shrinks incredibly with your whim. You could fly on a kite or paper airplane, even a paper dragon. You could make a paper crossbow or a paper gun shooting paper bullets, and can make paper bombs which give nearby people papercuts or explode acid ink. Paper objects created in this manner last 72 hours and then lose their edge. You can make one per spell. You can make Ritual Ink, which allows you to draw spells mimicking level 1 ritual magic. Your charms can now be slapped on people. You can tattoo level 2 magics into others for up to 48 hours. Once imbued, your own ability to cast that magic becomes half as strong (if you do one person) or disappears completely (if you give it to two other people) until the 48 hours has passed.
==== DREAM MAGIC: ====
Level 1: You can enter and observe the dreams of others, if you have met the person. You can make yourself known through these dreams, but can not control them. You can pass information in their dreams.
Level 2: You can manipulate the dreams and nightmares of others. You can teach them skills in their dreams.
Level 3: You can create waking dreams and nightmares, either pulling something from the dream world into the real world and giving it substance and form, or causing a person to see a dream overlaid on reality. Pulling a 'monster' from a nightmare and having it attack someone would be possible, though require constant chanelling of the magic, as that monster is moved by your input.
==== ECTOFORGING: (Wraith-only power of forging Real World items out of Pale Lands matter.) ====
(Suggested by: Carnavirious Resident.)
Level 1: You can create simple objects with no moving parts, such as a crude blade, bowl, tire iron, or key. These objects must weigh less than 50lbs. Items last for one day and then decay. They are VISIBLY magical with a sort of purple-black glow to them, and thus, might break the law if used in front of humans.
Level 2: You can create more complex items, such as clothing, a skateboard, microscope, or a gun (bullets separate). These items must be non-electrical. Items last for one week and then decay. They look like the real thing and are no longer visibly magical, but must weigh 250lbs or less.
Level 3: You can create magical items by forcing the soul of a ghost or wraith into your creation OR very large/complex items. These items are permanent in nature. Permanent level 3 Ectoforged Items count towards your total number of magic items (you may only have 3 at a time for your own use), and may require ST approval. Permanent Ectoforging of anything but Grey Crusade members is frowned upon by many, but is often used as a punishment within the Pale Empire for failure or traitors.
==== ELEMENTAL MANIPULATION: ====
Level 1: You can manipulate a single element (fire, wind, water, or earth) within 20m, as long as it is already in existence. You can not increase the amount of that element -- except for fire, which can be increased by, well, setting other things on fire. You are immune to magical attacks by your element. (You may purchase this magic more than once in order to manipulate multiple elements; each element is a separate magic school in your magic pool.)
Level 2: You can manipulate a single element within visual range, and produce it from thin air. You can cause it to serve you, and speak to you and for you, delivering messages and receiving them from afar.
Level 3: You can become a being made entirely of your element.
(Note: Due to their weakness, vampires and dryads can not choose fire as an element.)
==== EMPATHIC MANIPULATION: ====
Level 1: You can determine the emotions of others. You can tell if a person is happy, sad, afraid, and to some extent, may get some inkling of what caused that emotion, if it is in the immediate area. This magic must be cast and lasts only for the duration of a day. You may cast a spell to sense lies or intent to decieve, but it lasts only one scene and can be fooled if many people in an area are speaking or with the target rolling Subterfuge vs 13.
Level 2: You can control the emotions of others. You can incite fear or joy, hatred or lust. This power works best when you are touching the target. Without touch, it is difficult to control and the effect is milder. This magic must be cast and lasts only for the duration of a scene. It works better if the person is already inclined towards that emotion and you are merely augmenting it.
Level 3: You can control the emotions of whole groups of people to some degree. This dangerous power has created some of the largests cults and religions in history. But like the previous level, it lasts only for the duration of a scene.
==== GRAVITY MAGIC: ====
Level 1: You can change the way gravity affects you by up to 200lbs, allowing you to run up walls or stand on ceilings, levitate, or become much heavier and harder to move. You can jump extremely high. You can change the gravity of a non-organic object weighing up to 200lbs by up to 200lbs, allowing you to float an object, or cause it to become heavier. You will need kinetic magic to manipulate objects via force.
Level 2: You have the ability to levitate other people to levitate up to 20ft along with yourself, or you can make them heavier, so that it is more difficult for them to move. You can manipulate the gravity of a non-organic object weighing up to 600lbs by up to 600lbs.
Level 3: By subtly manipulating gravity, you can fly and, if the people stay within sight range, cause them to fly along with you. You can create objects nobody can lift or cause heavy craft to become light enough to float (though again, they will need another means to propel them forwards).
==== HOLY MAGIC (Angels only): ====
Level 1: You can emit an aural glow which makes people regard you as wise or trustworthy. You can force another to obey short (3 words or less), clear, non-confusing commands which do not involve physical harm. (For instance 'kill yourself' would not work but 'go to sleep' probably would.) You can imbue an item you are holding with holy magic, protecting it from use by demons or non-believers.
Level 2: You can emit an aural glow which dissuades those nearby from wishing to attack you or those near you OR feel intense guilt over their sins - this only works as long as you are not attacking them. You can force another to obey longer (8 words or less) commands which do not involve physical harm. You can imbue an weapon are holding with holy magic, so that it causes extra damage to demons or non-believers. You resist and can cancel out level 1 infernal magic. You can hear prayers of the faithful from up to 1 mile away.
Level 3: You can emit an aural glow which causes people to fall to their knees and tremble at the majesty of God. You can create localized Biblical-like plagues. You can cause debilitating and long-lasting pain to demons and non-believers with a touch. You can resist and cancel out level 2 infernal magic.
==== ILLUSION: ====
Level 1: You can create illusions which fool one sense. This includes the ability to change your appearance or go unseen. Low level "change my appearance to look like new person" spells last a day before needing to be re-cast and do not take that much energy to maintain
Level 2: You can create illusions which fool more than one sense.
Level 3: You can create immersive illusions which seem like a complete reality.
==== INFERNAL MAGIC (Demons only): ====
Level 1: You can emit an aural glow which makes people regard you as desirable or worthy of high esteem. By touch, you can manipulate your own, or someone else's sense of pleasure or pain, increasing or decreasing either of them. You can imbue an item you are holding with infernal magic, protecting it from use by angels or non-believers.
Level 2: You can emit an aural glow which makes people feel compelled to indulge in their darkest desires. By touch, you can manipulate pleasure and pain to an extreme degree, causing addiction or psychological trauma after several uses. You can imbue a weapon you are holding with infernal magic, so that it causes extra damage to angels or non-believers. You can resist and cancel out level 1 holy magic. You can create binding demonic pacts with magical consequences.
Level 3: You can emit an aural glow which causes people to which to sacrifice that which is dear to them to please you. You can create localized Biblical-like plagues.

==== MIRROR MAGIC: (Fae Only - Magic involving reflection(s).) ====
Level 1: You can hold a mirror, look in it, and "call" someone else who has a mirror whose name and face you know. They do not need mirror magic to "answer" your call. You can reflect a level one spell, targeted at you, back at the caster if you can catch their reflection in a hand-held or nearby mirror and you've cast mirror magic for the scene. You must continue to channel mirror magic for the duration, and can cast no other magic. You can "pull" a static reflection of yourself out of the mirror. It can not move, but looks lifelike. It will last as long as you continue to channel magic solely to that item, or until it is damaged.
Level 2: You can pass small objects (5lbs or less) through a mirror to someone on the other side. You no longer need a mirror but can reflect level one or level two spells targeted at you and one additional person if you have cast mirror magic for the day. However, you can cast no other magic. Doing so immediately ends Mirror Magic. You can pull a reflection of yourself out of the mirror. It can move and talk, but has no magic or skills and must always roll unranked. It will last as long as you continue to channel magic solely to that item, or it has taken 10 points of damage, and it must remain within your line of sight, or it stops moving.
Level 3: So long as someone "answers" your mirror-call on the other side, you may pass through the mirror bodily to be where they are. They do not need to have level 3 mirror magic. You can reflect magic targeted at everyone within 20ft back at the caster. You can pull a reflection of yourself out of the mirror, which has all of the same skills as you. It can not cast magic. It will continue as long as you continue to channel magic solely to that item, or it has taken 20 points of damage. It must remain within your line of sight or it stops moving.

You can completely preserve a corpse so it will not rot. You can make your aura match that of a dead person, if you have some piece of their body. You can create a 'zombie' powder using dried bone of a supernatural being which, when inhaled by your target, gives you some measure of control over them for up to one day. You can only control one zombie at a time, and the level of control should be pre-decided by you and the other player.
Level 3: You can raise and restore the dead fully. You can perform a ritual to keep a Wraith from inhabiting another body once it has lost the current one or undo that ritual if it has been placed.
==== RITUAL MAGIC: (Can never be used during combat rounds. Some rituals may require ST approval.) ====
Level 1: Minor rituals containing common ritual elements. These can be rituals such as minor curses, removal of curses, banishment from a building, or dedication of objects, imbuing an object with temporary magic, or other occult rituals found through study.
Level 2: Major rituals containing rare ritual elements. These rituals can be such things as banishment from the city, major curses, magical sealing, or imbuing an object with permanent magic, or other rituals created through research or study.

You can make your voice heard over the range of the whole city, all at once.
==== SPECTRAL MAGIC: (Manipulation of magical and spiritual energy.) ====
Level 1: You can use your personal magical energy to boost the abilities of another. You may also perform an energy drain, causing them lethargy and enhancing your magical abilities. (This does not allow you to 'level up' your magic, only to power it for a longer time, cast it more easily, or make your level 1 spell more intricate.)

Restricted magics require pre-approval by a relevant admin. Extremely restricted magics will only be available to NPCs or under extremely limited circumstances.)
==== HEALING: (Mildly Restricted) ====
Level 1: Physical healing -- You can heal physical wounds and injuries, and minor diseases. Healing races with which you are unfamiliar is more difficult than your own race. Healing yourself requires twice the energy.

Level 3: You can do unthinkable and unspeakable things to a person's body, which are permanent unless corrected by another fleshcrafter.
==== PERSONAL MAGIC: (Restricted.) ====
This is the ability to app for a magic not listed here. It will need to be structured like magics here, with three levels, and if approved, will be added for other people to use.

(Basically, you sit out RP until the time has passed, your character disappears in the current timeline, and then re-appears later.)

==== TELEPORTATION AND PORTALCRAFT: (Extremely restricted.) ====
Level 1: Rudimentary understanding of spacial distortions and the ability to detect portals.
