Enchanting Basics
Useful Terms
- Activating (Activator Spell)
- The process of powering or 'activating' a scribed sigil's latent properties by sending lunar mana into it. Currently there are three spells that function in this regard, they are in order from worst to best: Shadows, Dazzle, and Unleash. Unleash also slightly raises the magical quality of the enchantment.
- Binding
- The process of permantently sealing (or 'binding' as we call it) a sigil into an object, by focusing your magical senses on the object until you feel the sigil become one with the object.
- Celestial Sigil
- Pictorial representations of heavenly bodies such as the three moons, the sun, or the thirteen planets.
- Conjunctive Sigil
- Any combination of 2 overlaying sigils or Celestial sigils.
- Enchanter's Burin
- Similar to a mundane burin used in metal etching, The Enchanter's Burin, through the gem in its tip, allows a sigil to be drawn both upon a target object as well as in the space around it.
- Foundation Enchantment
- Enchantments that are made using only one sigil, or 'foundation sigil' as they are called. Also referred to as 'Foundation-based Enchantments'.
- Foundation Sigil
- A sigil that represents a single constellation or other celestial body.
- Grand Square
- Any combination of 4 overlaying sigils or Celestial sigils.
- Scribing
- The process of placing or 'drawing' a sigil on an item.
- Sigil(s)
- Pictorial representations of the constellations, 'drawn' to such precise geometric exactness that they can be used to evoke the raw power of the constellation upon which they are based.
- Trine
- Any combination of 3 overlaying sigils or Celestial sigils.
