Alteration Magic

Alteration Magic
Use: Cannot be
used unskilled.
Sample specializations: None
Alteration
magic is
magic that uses existing matter and energy and changes it into a form or
condition more desirable to the caster. A spell that changes a character’s Strength attribute is an example
of alteration magic, it “alters” the pre-existing Strength of the spell’s
recipient. A spell that changes a character into stone is another example of alteration magic; the matter that
makes up the character’s body is altered into a different substance.
Teleportation spells are another type of alteration magic, which work by
altering the target’s physical location rather than altering an attribute or quality
possessed by the target. The alteration magic skill is used to cast alteration spells. Specializations
are not allowed because this is already covered by the magic system through the
use of arcane
knowledges.
Detailed rules for using alteration magic and the other magic skills can be found in Chapter
Ten.
