Eyes of Twilight

Cost: 11 (7 skills + 3 spells + Magical School Familiarity) points
Style Prerequisite: Spirit Empathy, Magery, (not One College Only).
== Background ==
The Eyes of Twilight is the art of spirit magic. Combining a mystical sensibility with high academic standards, the style attracts those who seek deep understanding, those who love the weird, and those looking for particularly subtle or particularly frightening power. Dealing with intelligent beings comes with special hazards of course, and mages of the Eyes of Twilight style have been known to fall under the sway of those they sought to command. Others can grow to view all intelligent life as tools, or to become so enamored with the company of spirits that they grow alienated from other corporeal beings. Depending on the society in which they find themselves, mages of this school may or may not be open about what they are – it isn’t difficult for people to become hysterical over those who traffic with the unseen.

===Cleansing of the Ten Spheres (VH); Area, Resisted by Will
All spirits and demons within the area of the effect must flee as if under the influence of a Turn Spirit spell (GURPS Magic, p. 151). Casting this spell requires the mage to draw or paint a pentagram at least 3 yards wide.
*Duration: A number of hours equal to the margin by which the caster defeated a subject’s Will.
*Base Cost: 2, minimum 8. 4 to maintain.
*Time to Cast: 30 seconds.
===Emerald Ritual of Summoning (VH); Area===
+1 to all Spirit or Demon spells cast in the Area and +2 to spirit summoning spells. The GM should include any spells that are “spirit” or “demon” spells in nature, if not in name. Similarly, the GM should exclude spells that have “spirit” or “demon” in their names but not in their nature. Casting this spell requires the mage to draw or paint a pentagram at least 3 yards wide.
*Duration: A number of hours equal to the margin of success.
*Base Cost: 2
*Time to Cast: 1 hour
===Onyx Ritual of Banishment (VH); Special, Resisted by Will===
Except where otherwise stated, this spell is identical to Banish (GURPS Magic, p. 156). The advantage of knowing the Onyx Ritual of Banishment is that it might succeed even if Banish has failed. Failed attempts to Banish cause no penalty for the Onyx Ritual of Banishment. Casting this spell requires the mage to draw or paint a pentagram at least 3 yards wide.
*Time to Cast: 2 hours
