Passionate Magic
This article is a work in progress and is being developed over the course of WorldEmber! If you have questions or ideas for this article, I'd love to hear your thoughts!
I know this is something we can do, and I have the power to make it happen!Passionate magic is one of two accessible paths for practicing Sovosian Magic, the other being Lawful magic.
Manifestation of Magic
In a world built from Whimsy, magic doesn't need to be so rigid all the time. Those who follow the path of passionate magic know that going with the flow and following intuition can summon exactly the magic they need, when they need it. When done right, this belief proves true!Sorcerers: Magic from Within
Magic has a way of bubbling up when you least expect it, and sometimes that magic comes from within you! If magic comes naturally to you, with no need for those bulky scrolls and tomes (and especially all of that homework), sorcery might be a path that's right for you.Bold and Free
Sorcerers are the ultimate Passionate Casters, drawing their power from within, honing their skill through experience, and bolstering their strength through trust in themselves.Example Spells
Mystic Bolt
An offensive spell that flings a bolt of concentrated magic at an enemy.This bolt can be composed of several different elements — this composition can be controlled at higher skill levels!
More spells will be added to the list soon!
Clerics: Fueled by Faith
Sometimes, magic comes from some place higher — well, it depends on where your patron god(s) live. If you're someone driven by faith and conviction, the path of the cleric may be yours to walk!Divine Partnerships
Not to be overshadowed by sorcerers, clerics are another prevalent subset of Passionate Casters. The difference is that clerics draw their power from their deities, honing their skill through prayer and partnership, and bolstering their strength through building their faith. Their magic is as varied as the gods themselves, gaining skills and abilities based on the different domains that exist in the realm of the divine. The gods of Ayun Sovos are often eager to connect with their worshipers, but becoming a cleric isn't as simple as saying, "pretty please?" and offering a prayer every once in a while. Devotion is just the start of the journey, but the path is a rewarding one.Example Spells
Mark of Mirth
A prayer spell that grants an ally a buff, boosting morale in a pinch.The Mark lasts until a new Mark spell is cast on the same ally, or until the adventure is concluded.
