Channeler: - Limited to Destruction, Nature, Weather, Death, Dark, Light, (Limited) Life, Blood & Conjuration
Channeler's conjure spirits to harness the power of the elemental world. Being bound to one or more spirit at a time, can cause strain on the mind, leading to frenzies. Fortunately, using such powers also exhaust the channeler. Often a steady flow of low magic, or a frenzied high burst, Channelers are masters of the elemental powers.

Runesmith: - No sphere restrictions, but Location & Time Restrictions
Runesmiths carve or craft in some way, runes into objects. It is very time consuming, but enables one to carry magically enchanted items around with them. Never being able to cast in combat, is somewhat offset by having a small arsenal of magical tricks and items. Expensive, but very versatile and powerful, Runesmiths are some of the most coveted magical users, often...simply as walking batteries for other runes that have faded.

Ritualist: - No sphere restrictions, but long prepartion time
Ritualists are the most powerful practitioners. Unfortunately, they are also the most limited. Extremely long cast times require Ritualists to be very clever in their selection of magic.
