+===== Magic =====
 Magic are rituals, large & small, which people can perform to tap into their mana pool and produce various effects. These effects vary wildly, and spells are generally available for use once learned with some very niche exceptions. Unlike skills, spells cannot be passive.

 Typically the effectiveness of magic will depend on the caster's MAG stat versus the target's RES stat (unless the target is willing). MP naturally regenerates over time. A short or long rest will increase the speed of this. When exposed to the night sky or the moon, spells have a slight chance of having zero MP cost.
+==== MP Calculations ====
+MP cost is determined by the level of the spell, the area of effect, and the distance it must travel.
+==== Learning Magic ====
+All humans are capable of magic as long as they have [[stats|Magicka]].  One must learn a spell before they can use it.  Learning new magic is done either by being taught by another person who knows it or from a scroll or spell book.  Scrolls and spell books can primarily be found within the dungeon, but it isn't uncommon for dungeon divers to sell them.
 ==== Known Spells ====
-  * **Breeze Lv 1** - 3MP.  Moves a small amount of air to the caster's will.
   * **Detect Life Lv 1** - 4MP.  Able to detect living beings within 10ft of the caster for up to 10 minutes.
   * **Invigoration Lv 1** - 2MP.  Restore the caster's endurance from an exhausted state.
   * **Refresh Lv 1** - 4MP.  The weakest healing spell that can be used.  Stops bleeding and reduces fatigue.  1HP recovered.  Reduce MP cost by 1 for self-cast.

+==== Schools of Magic ====
-MP cost is determined by the level of the spell, the area of effect, and the distance it must travel.
+While magic is not limited to certain categories, there are schools of magic that are often learned together simply by having similar purposes.  Thanks to this categorization, it can become easier to find books or teachers.
-==== Learning Magic ====
+Gastronomic magic consists of spells that focus on hunger, diet, and digestion.  These spells are often learned or developed by chefs, dieticians, and doctors.
