− | + | There are two (2) Low Order Magic Systems that function and exist throughout the Subterra Sway; its System of Shadows, but both Systems are not known/practiced/taught in each and every Shadow. For example; the Shadows that have Shadow Paths connected to the Core Shadows that practice the Magery System (Warlock) will also practice Magery, but Wizardy (D&D) the other Low Order Magic System, still functions, though it is not taught or practiced by the denizens of that Shadow, but might be 'heard of'. | |

The Deities that are worshiped throughout this Sway may be called my many different names, but their Spheres of Influence are similar if not identical and They may just be all be the same Deities, just called by different names. It is also possible that there are only three Deities, representing Good, Evil and Balance... but The Dude believes that the 'Deities' are 'something else' and truly represent Order, Chaos and Balance. |
