| This is a list of the various spells/curses known by the believers of the Sphere of Influence, which they are interacting with through a series of behaviours that bend reality. They are not thought to be connected to StarClan. Each spell was classified by a council of Wizards to determine the security clearance on learning them. Some argue that the spells themselves are not good or evil. Either way, users were classified depending on which ones they used. Knowing any High spells made one a High Wizard. Only knowing Good spells categorized someone as a Good Wizard. There is debate on whether the opposite category should be known as Evil Wizard or Foul Wizard. Each spell also has a Steward, a cat who is entrusted with a particular spell to know the ins and outs, as well as control who learns it. A Steward may choose their own successor, and may do so while still alive. Otherwise... well, we will just have to see what happens. To learn a spell, one must be told how to use it or observe it being cast. Spells are tracked in the Stat Tracker. All spell components have to be cleared by the Admin to prevent powergaming. | ||||||
