Pagan magic



Magic in Pagan works quite differently than on Britannia; the presence of the four Titans sees to that. Magic on Pagan is divided into five different schools, each with its own rules, spells, reagents and differences. This document will give a deeper insight into the mechanics of magic on this world.

The Five Schools of Magic


This is only a short explanation of the five schools of magic in Pagan. For each school there is a special page, with more information about how the magic works, who practices it, which rituals are needed, and which spells are available for each school.

For a list of all spells, see Pagan Spells.

Necromancy
Necromancy is the magic of Earth and the Titan Lithos, and deals also exclusively with spells the Dead.

Tempestry
Tempestry is the magic of Water and the Titan Hydros, and deals also exclusively with weather effects.

Theurgy
Theurgy is the magic of Air and the Titan Stratos, and deals with spells of knowledge and healing.

Sorcery
Sorcery is the magic of Fire and the Titan Pyros, and its spells are almost all dedicated to destruction.

Thaumaturgy
Thaumaturgy is the the magic of the Ether itself. Its spells are the most difficult to describe, since they are in no category exclusively.

Reagents
Three of the schools of magic in Pagan need to use reagents to access their magic. These are Necromancy, Sorcery and Thaumaturgy. The first two schools only use the reagents of their own school, while the third use beside its own reagents also the ones from the other two schools. This is a overview over the reagents.

The Reagents of Necromancy
(Note: These Reagents can be found in the Catacombs, Carthax Lake and Stone Cove.)

A special case is the Dead Man's Elbow, a reagent whose uses are unknown.

The Reagents of Sorcery
(Note: These Reagents can only be found in the Daemon's Crag.)

The Reagents of Thaumaturgy
(Note: Only Mythran sells these reagents.)

The Words of Power
As in Britannia and Serpent Isle, these Words of Power have to be used to activate a spell. They are needed for every school, except Tempestry, and are therefore universal. They are:
