Arcana forum

Post by Rias »

We now have the "Arcana" forum for discussion of occult rituals involving arcane glyphs, diagrams, and so forth.

Arcana is the non-channeled method of harnessing the occult, being more widely accessible than channeling. While virtually anyone can learn the simplest of arcane glyphs and diagrams, the complexity of mixed diagrams and more advanced glyphs increases very quickly, requiring particular devotion to the art: only the dedicated Arcanist (name subject to change) class of the Scholar Guild will be able to master the more complicated and powerful rituals.

In addition to its relative ease to learn, another particular advantage of arcana over channeling is that it encompasses a very wide variety of effects, and even allows for the mixing of certain types of glyphs to create modified or occasionally completely new effects. Of course, it still pays to build up an affinity for a particular "branch" of arcana in order to enjoy increased potency with associated rituals. That said, there is also some appeal to instead being a jack of all arcane affinities rather than focusing on any one in particular.
