Magic
The court’s magic was buried with the dead on the Night of Ash. Spell scrolls drop only from the undead and the creatures of the wilds, never from a shop. Once learned, a spell grows through ten ranks in your spell book.

Circles
A spell’s circle sets its mana cost, cast time and difficulty. Below the first number your school skill cannot cast it; from there the chance rises evenly until the second number, where it never fails.
| Circle | Mana | Cast | Castable from | Never fails at |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 4 | 0.5 s | 0 | 20 |
| 2 | 6 | 0.75 s | 0 | 34.3 |
| 3 | 9 | 1 s | 8.6 | 48.6 |
| 4 | 11 | 1.25 s | 22.9 | 62.9 |
| 5 * | 14 | 1.5 s | 37.1 | 77.1 |

Spell power and focus
- Spell power is raised by Focus (6.25% plus Focus ÷ 160) and by Intelligence (0.3% per point).
- Interruption. A hit while casting breaks the spell 50% of the time at Focus 0, and 10% at Focus 100.
- After a cast you recover for 0.5 s before the next.
Spell ranks
- You prepare up to 6 spells at a time.
- A spell’s rank cannot pass your school skill ÷ 10, rounded down.
- The scroll you learned it from sets a ceiling too: a plain scroll teaches up to rank 3, a Silver scroll up to 6, and a Gold scroll up to 10.
- A spell master asks 200 coins at rank 4 and 600 coins at rank 7.

Where scrolls drop

| Fire | Spark, Fireball | Open world: Wild Orc, Lizard Warrior |
| Cold | Frost Bolt | Open world: Zombie, Ghoul, Vampire, Skeleton Mage Mausoleum Crypt: Zombie, Ghoul, Skeleton Mage, Skeleton Archer, Vampire, Crypt Lord (chest 60%) |
