Formulae – most often referred to as “Spells” (also prayers, visualizations, actualizations, etc.) – are prescribed elements of mystic power which can be affixed to a character through a Mystic Reservoir. It holds a configuration of mystic power that is manifested using a variety of Mystic Methodologies to evince an effect. Each Formulae has an associated name/title and level or rank of power that reflects the experience and/or knowledge required to learn and use it. The mystic origins of formulae often allow them to be leveraged by a multitude of practices. Not all of them are universal, and some are unique to a few or only one mystic practice. Access to them may vary by tradition, reservoir, setting, race, or character experience which denotes a specific way of viewing the universe that leads to their ability or inability to be able to work with a specific formula.
Spell Formulae are imparted through Classes (Pathways, etc.) as a set of Spell Slots of various levels (held in a Mystic Reservoir) that most often use Casting (a Mystic Methodology like runes, alchemy, etc.) to evince their effects.
Any Formulae (spell) with a ritual tag is Universally Ritualized and typically takes up 5x the space in Reference Work recordings of it.
These are all learned as part of a Mystic Tradition through research, inspiration, and/or a mentoring process that will dictate primary and secondary Attributes when manipulating them. Many appear in common with multiple Pathways, though can have their own labels by path, Setting, and/or locale.
Creatures of Higher Order, greater power, and/or Stature/Size can develop a (through Meditation with other capabilities) the ability to scale the Dimensional Facets of Mystic Formulae to match their scale.
