Life Magic Spells
Life Magic is the practice of sensing and protecting the energy of all living things. Theurgists, or Life Mages, sing chants or songs, meditate, or otherwise bond with the natural world and the life force that binds all things together.
Modern Life Magic has made great strides in standardizing several healing and restoration spells as well as pushing the school beyond simple herbalists and medics. Mages under the tutalage of Melinda Poppy are taught not only to be healers but true forces of nature.
