Passive Effects
Passive Effects for Common Magic are unique to each School of Powers:
Mana Power Passives
Applies to Manna powers only NOT Null Powers
Arcane Capacitance
- All Tier2 and higher powers add a stack of Arcane Capacitance when successfully cast
- The stack can be consumed (as an instant) at any time to add +1dam/+2hit per stack to the next power
Null Power Passives
Volatile Powers
- All Null Powers are considered Volatile Powers
Acclimation
Null powers accumulate negative spirit energy with every cast, becoming less and less effective.
For each Volatile Null energy stack:
- increase base Miscast chance by +5%
- apply -5 to hit modifier
- increase Spirit cost of all powers by 1

Traces of the magic remain permanently detectable while resized. The target cannot shrink or grow if there is restricted space to do so (i.e. cannot shrink a helm to crush a skull or grow a foundation stone to burst a damn), this includes returning to it original size (i.e if resizing an immobilized zombie, placing it in a sealed box, then allowing movement, it would not return to its original size unless removed from from the box). • Tier 2: shrink or grow by 1 size • Tier 3: shrink or grow by up to 2 sizes • Tier 4: shrink or grow by up to 3 sizes |

If there is more than one target, friend or foe, that wishes to claim the loose spirit the winner of an initiative stat roll-off claims it. This process renders the components inert, worthless, or otherwise mundane (i.e. crumbles to dust, or melts away). • At Tier4 this can used in combination with a dispel to disenchant a weapon, armor, or item to capture loose spirit from the components that would have been used for that enchant. |

Once opened, anything can pass through it however the portal only remains open if the caster maintains conscious concentration and closes once the caster passes through it or decides to end the spell. If a wondrous portal is connected to a physical gateway, door, or other such object on each end it establishes a reusable portal called a waygate. Provided the waygates remain intact, this connection is permanent and can be activated by anyone with knowledge of it after paying the appropriate spirit cost. • If three or more Waygates are connected together into a network, it creates a pocket dimension of interconnected paths known as a waypath. In theory an infinite number of waygates may be connected in this manner however the more connected waygates there are to a waypath, the larger the theoretical space of the waypath becomes.
