Magic Ratings

There are different ways to classify magic (levels, ratings, security, etc.). These ratings can help a mage expect what they can or cannot do.

## Intensity

Intensity ratings identify how much kaph is used in a cast relative to the total amount of kaph. For example, a very intensive spell would be rated as **Leeching** because it uses so much kaph and makes the mage exhausted.

## General Security

General ratings are used to identify how much of a threat an area poses to other beings. This is used in dangerous areas, protected environments, etc. This is generally used to prevent civilian casualties.

**Level 1 - Earth**
 BEDROCK
 BULWARK

**Level 2 - Wildlife**
 BEAST
 GALE

**Level 3 - Nest**
 BEAR DEN
 PHOENIX NEST

**Level 4 - Hellrock**
 HELL
 MOST HOLY

## Regional Security

Regional ratings are used to identify how much of a threat other beings could be to the security of the region. This is usually used in government buildings, public areas, buildings, etc. But this also can be used to prevent additional civilian casualties in an area.

**Level 1 - Bird Nest**
 PIGEON
 CROW

**Level 2 - Dog House**
 ATTACK DOG
 K9

**Level 3 - Club**
 GUARD
 POLICE

**Level 4 - Watchtower**

Due to laws, there are no higher punishments than pursuing / killing a suspect. The rest of the levels are just additions on restrictions

**Level 7 - Thieves Den**
 BANDIT
 PIRATE

**Level 8 - Mental Scape**
 HALLUCINATING

**Level 9 - Undocumented**
 LETHAL

The highest attainable regional security level is **LETHAL GENERAL 6C**

## Mage Security

Mage ratings are used to identify how much of a threat a being could possibly be. This does not mean that the being in question will actively be a threat but it is a mere possibility. Originally meant to identify possible threats, they are now more commonly used to scale a being's "power level".

**Level 1 - Prey**
 DEER

**Level 2 - Beast**
 DOG
 CAT

**Level 3 - Predator**
 WOLF
 LEOPARD

**Level 4 - Prowler**

**Level 6 - God**
 ANGEL

**Level 7 - Modifiers**
 RESILIENT
 FORSAKEN

The highest mage security level attainable is **FORSAKEN GOD 6C**

## Grimoires (CADs)

The ratings for a CAD describe what it's capabilities are in assisting casting.

### i: INVOKING

#### ALPHA - VOICE

Omits the need to verbally invoke the spell

#### BRAVO - DANCER

Omits the need to physically invoke the spell

#### DELTA - SEQUENCING

Invoke spells in a sequence and control them

### d: DIRECTING

#### ALPHA - PROGRAM

Allows the user to program the spell to go in a specific direction

#### BRAVO - MODIFY

Allows the user to cast a modifier spell on an active spell

### o: OVERRIDING

Allows the user to cast a modifier spell on an active spell

#### ALPHA - GENEROSITY

Allows the user to perform the spell regardless of magical ability

If a mage wanted a CAD that made invoking via voice and action easier, they would get an iAB CAD. Or if they wanted one that would allow anyone to perform any spell without speaking it, they would get an iAoA CAD. If a CAD rating has O this means it does everything within a category (ex: iOdO does everything within INVOKING and DIRECTING).

A CAD that can do all of these is known as OMNI.
