The vast majority of spells are ancient, having being formulated, tested, and perfected by mages long-gone. To master the strange lore of spells requires keen intelligence and long years of study. Mages strive by experimentation, guesswork, and sometimes arrogant and dangerous invention, to further their personal goals.

	Eight schools of magic have been discovered. Each school is associated with a symbol and a specific colour, as shown in the adjacent table. When a Detect Magic is used, the colour(s) of magic being observed is revealed. Note that a ''Detect Magic'' on an item or effect of divine origin may also reveal the colour of the deity to which the item is attuned.		Eight schools of magic have been discovered.
