Shadow Magic

Shadow is vast and many are the styles or magic. The majority of these systems are Low Order ones.

High Order magics are those based on the Pattern, Logrus, Squiggles inscriptions, Marks, and a number of other High Order inscriptions such as the Mall at Reiss

But Low Order systems can be incredibly powerful but may not function in the shadows far from their worlds of origin.

Characters buy a level of familiarity by allocating points to Shadow Magic and specifying type and realm of origin.
