Clockwork Karmastry

Clockwork Karmastry is all about understanding the fundamental forces that determine how the universe and flux destinies function. Its symbol is the Endless Knot of Karma, and primarily deals with consequences.
==Overview==
Clockwork Karmastry users study and apply karmastry to control fundamental forces, such as Karma, gravity, electromagnetism, and the strong and weak nuclear forces. These Escape Artists are like the engineers of the universe, tinkering with the gears and levers that make everything work. 
==Abilities==
With Clockwork Karmastry, Escape Artists have the ability to manipulate the very fabric of reality (although not to the theoretical levels of Quantum Karmastry). Spacetime, matter, energy, even karma itself can be bent to an experienced practitioner’s will.
Clockwork Karmastry has three primary subclasses, called “Controls”.
==Matter==
The Matter Control deals with the physical make up of the universe, as distinct from energy.
* Mechanical Control: The study and redirection of the mechanical proporties of objects, such as motion and forces that act upon them. Constructs created using this method can apply force to objects, redirect movement, and integrate with mechanical systems.
* Material Control: Changing a material’s properties, ranging from hardness and toughness, to density, elasticity, and even reshaping the object in question.
* Atomic Control: Deals in manipulating particles at the atomic and subatomic level. This can range from regulating nuclear fusion energy, to creating whole new materials.
===Energy===
As the name suggests, the Energy Control handles various forms of energy.
* Karma Control: Harnesses and redirects karmic energy, whether by siphoning it through toruses, storing it for constructs or other effects, or even managing its flow to avoid Payback.
* Electromagnetic Control: Manipulates the electromagnetic spectrum and magnetic fields, such as creating magnetic field and electrical constructs.
* Thermal Control: Manipulating temperature, heat, and energy conversion. This consists of managing efficiency, integrating thermal regulation, and generating or dissipating heat.
* Optical Control: The manipulatio of light, such as bending, creating, and focusing light for things like lasers, lighting up an area, or even visual illusions.
===Forces===
The Forces Control deals with the various forces of the universe.
* Gravitational Control: The manipulation of gravity as a fundamental force, including localized fields, reversing or redirecting its pull on an object, or gravitational constructs.
* Spacetime Control: Sometimes mistaken for Quantum Karmastry, this deals with the manipulation of spacetime itself. Distorting time, warping space, and creating anomalies all fall under this skillset.
* Acoustic Control: Manipulating sound. This includes creating, increasing, and redirecting soundwaves for just about every concievable purpose.
==History==
===Origins===
==Modern Use==
===Training===
Clockwork Escape Artists typically use larger toruses which can handle the strain of channeling immense amounts of karma into cosmic power.
===Payback Risk===
Clockwork Karmastry’s primary payback risk comes in the form of Newton’s third law: “Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.” This is why advanced math skills are crucial to avoid the dangerous consequences of using it incorrectly.

==Trivia==
* Clockwork Karmastry’s symbol is purple since the main user of it in the series is Hugo, who is associated with purple.
* In Tibetan Buddhism as well as Hinduism, the Endless Knot represents Samsara: the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth.
