Mind Thaumaturgy?

[SonOfJupiter]

Hey! Just wanted to ask what 'Mind Thaumaturgy' would entail? It sounds pretty interesting, I'm assuming its something to do with control over other characters or something?

[Burgzaza]

Yes! It will for the most part affect the minds of characters, your own included. The powers themselves are really interesting, but what will truly make this school of thaumaturgy shine lies in it's interaction with the very complex behavior/roles system that every characters is constantly building and acting upon :)

I was Wondering the same thing.

Would you mind elaborating more on what the powers are? It just all sounds quite exciting really

Well, from what I,ve understood Mind Thaumaturgy is more about manipulating minds in subtle ways rather than outright mind controll (that will apparently require an extraordinarily powerfull thaumaturge). For example, you could make someone trust you or fear you or fly into a rage to mention some of the things you can do.

Well, here is a quote, bit out of context, that may give you more of an idea. The power examples are mind.

"so most learning comes from the insight skill
which includes:
Inversion
Expansion
Convergence
Union
Coherence
Iteration
Revelation
Amalgamation
so say you have a power Calm, if you learn the Inversion technique you can learn to invert it into Enrage
or Union can combine Confusion and Suspicion into Fear"

And a WIP pic of the Mind tree.
