Sorcery, Druidry, and Thaumaturgy have been removed as skills. They are now Affinities.

I'll get more into affinities in a bit, but here's a basic explanation:

Sorcery, Druidry, and Thaumaturgy are all technically branches of Arcana. The more one uses, say, Sorcery-based arcana, the more one's Sorcery affinity goes up. Greater affinity will increase potency (and potentially unlock extra facets) with related activities.

Affinities, an intriguing concept. Looking forward to hearing more about them!

Just read the post on affinities, and this sounds SUPER interesting! I'll be very excited to see how the magic/occult system works first hand. It sounds like amazing fun.

To anyone reading this in the future, this change was undone recently - sorcery and druidry are now seperate skills once more, and thaumaturgy is not learnable by PCs.
