Causepray

Causepray is a highly specialized magical practice that involves the heavy use of symbols and the materialization of concepts. In effect, the user channels forth a concept through his very being, gaining powers linked to that concept. The real work lies in creating the symbols and foci needed to sustain such a materialization.

It is a truly laborious art with excessive returns. If done well, the spell is extravagantly effective. If done poorly, the spell backfires spectacularly.

Mana is taken from the symbolism and the law of correspondence. These must be created well, otherwise the user gambles parts of his very soul to cover the expense. However, this same methodology allows Causepray practitioners to efficiently distill mana, allowing for the creation of powerful magical artifacts without peer.
