''"You know three dozen spells, and I know only three. Yet at this duel's end, it seems I am victorious. How did I win? The truth is that it doesn't matter how many spells you know... what matters is how you use them."''

This page is a '''Lore Sheet''' for the '''The Way Of the Sorcerer''', a set of '''Inner Masteries''' reflecting intense training in spellcasting and understanding of the arcane.
 
=Shen Rules Qing=

''Mind over matter. If you don't mind... it doesn't matter.''

'''Keywords:''' ''Continuous;''

'''Effect:''' Physical hardship never affects your mental capacity. Any and all negative physical conditions will never affect your ability to perform in mental conflicts. This includes tiredness, pain, hunger, thirst, discomfort, nausea... and anything else your body can throw at you.
 
=Fortress of Iron Will=

''Your mental resilience is incomparable, visualised as an impenetrable thought that you will allow none to violate.''

'''Keywords:''' ''Continuous;''

'''Effect:''' Add +5 to your starting and maximum mental resilience.
 Also, your exeptionally strong Shen gives you some additional benefits:
* You are immune to magical mind control. No creature can ever command your mind through supernatural means.
* You have no problem concentrating on a task for indefinite amounts of time. Even after six hours straight of solving logic puzzles, you'd still maintain focus as well as for the first few minutes.
 
=Stream of Revitalised Shen=

''You can open inner reserves to flood yourself with newfound strength, finding resources deep within.''

'''Keywords:''' ''Action;''

'''Effect:''' As an action you can heal a number of points of mental damage from yourself up to a maximum of your ''Mountain trigram''. This costs you a number of Yin Chi points equal to the damage healed.
 Also, your Shen healing gives you some additional benefits:
* You are immune to madness and mental illness. You will never hallucinate, nor suffer psychotic delusions.
* You can calm your emotions perfectly with a moment's concentration. Though social conflict still might persuade you through logic and intelligent discourse, you can never be ruled by your emotional drives. If you choose not to fear, then fear is suppressed. If you choose not to lust, then lust goes away. This calming lasts only as long as you deliberately maintain it, but your concentration is sufficient that you can maintain it for as long as you are awake.
