- 20:17, 23 April 2026 Via Vocatio (hist | edit) [1,058 bytes] Zadammac (talk | contribs) (Created page with "{{Stub}} The '''Via Vocatio''' is one of the nine vias, or "ways", of mages in the Ars Magica - a subset of the school's formalized magical theories. The "Way of Calling" is a discipline concerned with summoning, conjuration, and translocation - differing from Via Artificia in that it can best be thought of as "conjuration by moving things which exist" rather than "conjuration ex nihilo". The iconic use of the Via Vocatio would be in transplanar summoning of a [...")

The "Way of Protection" is as studied by "pure" academic wizards as it is by martial organizations like the Scholarly Order of the Azurejay, owing to the general utility of the school. Using these theories, a wizard can project powerful magical barriers or defuse latent magical energies, making them capable of every...")

The "Way of Illusion" is sometimes thought of as charlatan's magic, but has plenty of legitimate uses - including, as with the other Vias, undermining the use of the school against you or your patron. While the Via Lepos creates favourable or unfavourable impressions in the minds of others, Illusio concerns itself...")

The "Way of Knowing" is the discipline concerned with divination, magical scrying, the sending of messages over great distances, the parsing of information, and the prevention of all of the same. While divination remains unreliable, it along with the more precise uses of the school remain attractive abilities in spell...")

The "Way of Change" is possibly the second most familiar school to the layman after the Via Mandatum's command of the elements and is responsible for some of Ars Magica's most dramatic effects, like the transformation of the wizard or their target from one form to another. The school is concerned with the interplay bet...")

The Via Lepos is the "way of pleasantness"; despite its pleasant name, it is quite possibly the most dangerous of the schools, as it concerns itself with the magical structure of minds and their manipulation. In the popular imagination, the school is reduced to ideas like love potions, and greater fear is reserved for ...")
- 19:47, 23 April 2026 Via Lemurae (hist | edit) [1,587 bytes] Zadammac (talk | contribs) (Created page with "{{Stub}} The '''Via Lemurae''' is one of the nine vias, or "ways", of mages in the Ars Magica - a subset of the school's formalized magical theories. The Via Lemurae is the "way of shades", and finds itself concerned with the arts of necromancy, and the study of death, undeath, and divinity. Scholarship of this via is perhaps weaker than almost any other subject in the Ars Magica school, due to laws against necromancy in both Bastonia and the A...")
- 19:40, 23 April 2026 Via Artificia (hist | edit) [891 bytes] Zadammac (talk | contribs) (Created page with "{{Stub}} The '''Via Artificia''' is one of the nine vias, or "ways", of mages in the Ars Magica - a subset of the school's formalized magical theories. The Via Artificia is the "way of magical artifice", which is concerned with both the creation-ex-nihilo of physical objects through the conversion of magical energies into matter, and the creation of magical goods from existing physical materials. Many students of this via break the subject up further into specialtie...")

Like much of the rest of the Hinterlands, territorial jurisdiction over the tower is a complex affair. Until very recently, it was the seat of County Seelie, and the headquarters of the Companions of the Light, a Chivalric Order dedicated to the martial worship of The Almighty. The tower would ultimately be dest...")

Orcish tradition maintains that the Firekeeper did this in response to the expansion of humans into the Lordless Lands. This is part of the Orcish Long Count of History and is considered the beginning of history by their scholars, with the time before that being known as the Time of th...")

The defining cause of a hearthland seperatist movement is independence of the Hearthlands from the Atarlie Empire, of which the Herthlands is a protectorate. However, not all separatist movements are created equal: some are additionally revolutionary against the Parliament itself, others see...")
