Magic

Magic is a free force in the Lone isle universe, but few can access it naturally. It is subdivided into three types depending on it's usage.

Divine magic
The magic of the gods. It is both reliable and potent, allowing great feats of creation.

A small number of mortals are in fact, capable of wielding Divine magic to a lesser extent. These are known as channels, and are exceedingly rare.

Chaos magic
Some few mortals can directly access raw magic. However, whilst powerful, this form of magic is rare and unreliable.

Runic magic
The most common form of magic on the Isle, runic magic takes the form of a written language, a single rune often representing a single concept or action.

These are accessible to almost anyone, and depending on the user, can be more or less reliable. For example, more powerful mages could form a barrier from the rune for 'rock', whilst others would merely be able to obtain a pebble. The reliability also increases as more complex runic phrases are used.
