The Lores of Magic
URL Copied!

Wizards are a formidable force on the battlefield, able to wreak incredible destruction, weaken or strengthen other warriors, or summon terrible beasts to fight at their side. The rules for using Wizards and casting spells in your games have already been covered in detail in the Magic section. In the following sections, you will find the Lores of Magic – lists from which Wizards generate their spells.

Each Lore of Magic represents a particular approach towards the study and use of magic, giving each a particular character reflected by the spells within it. Different Wizards have access to different Lores of Magic.

Every Wizard's rules include the Lore(s) of Magic they know. In some cases, it will be stated that they know spells from a single, given Lore of Magic, whilst in others it will be stated that they know spells from one of a number of given Lores of Magic. Where this is the case, you must choose one of these Lores when writing your muster list.
