Editing Sorcery in Jeweled Amber

Sorcery is the power to manipulate the forces of the universe using a High Order Construct such as the Pattern.  Not all High Order Constructs can empower sorcery. 

The effectiveness of spells is based on the High Order Construct they channel such as Patters, Marks, Squiggles, and other High Order Constructs.

Most sorcerers can memorize one spell.  Otherwise a spell must be encanted in its entirety to cast. High Order Constructs allow a orceror to raise a '''''Frame''''' to ''''Hang'''' spell on for eaier use/

Sorcerers create a '''''Frame''''' and which they hang elaborate spells, leaving off a few elements called'''Lynchpins'''to cast the spell. Lynchpins are key phrases and gestures that allow a spell taking hours to cast to be cast in second from a saved or "hung" spell.

*Twin Transmission
This is Merlin's improvement  over Iulia’s  Special  Deli-
very  spell  (see  Julia’s  Book  of  Spells).  As  a piece of sorce-
rer's bravado, Merlin took the original spell and  improved
upon it, increasing the volume of material summoned, and
also doubling the effect, so that it works in two parts.
Spell Type: Summoning.
Casting Time: Forty-Five Minutes.
Lynchpins:  Additional  five  minutes  casting  time each.

will   be   a   load   of   manure),   Second   Trigger   Gesture,
Quantity (Optional).
*Trump Image Enhancement
The simplest form of Trump ilnhancement merely provides extra energy for making a Trump contact. This is, in effect, a burst of Psyche, like the Power Word of the same name. It can also be usefiil for breaking a Trump contact, or defending oneself against psychic attack, including one which accompanies an invasive spell.
Spell Type: Invasive.
Base Casting Time: Thirty Minutes.
Lynchpins: Additional five minutes of casting time each. Name/Description of Trump Subject, Magic of Shadow.
*Light

Bnse Casting time: Thirty Minutes.
Lynchpins: Additional five minutes of casting time each. Description of Target Location, Magic of Shadow, Duration, Constant Position Relative to Target Object (Optional), Color (Optional), Dispel Word (Optional).
*Levitate
An extremely complex and difficult spell.
Once the spell is released, the caster concentrates, and rises up into the air. It's possible to fly forward, backward, bank and turn, etc. The only danger is, if the caster’s concentration slips, even for a moment, the spell is lost, and the caster will fall like a rock. This will almost
certainly happen if anyone hits the caster, either physically or with a spell. Sometimes, just yelling at the caster will do it; anything that causes startlement. Even the impact of the caster hitting someone else can shatter the spell; it's very hard to fight while levitating, and the use of any powers—even triggering a Trump—is impossible.
Levitate can be cast on someone else but it’s unlikely another person will know how to control the levitation. Unless one knows the spell, or has been ‘briefed” with a Psychic contact nothing is likely to happen.
However, the one who levitates can carry along anything or anyone he or she is able to lift. People  who are carried don’t have to concentrate.
Spell Type: Invasive.
Base Casting Time: Three Hours.
Lynchpins: Additional ten minutes of casting time each. Name escription of Target (Optional), Magic of Shadow.
*Giant’s Slap

Spell Type: Summoning.
Bnse Casting Time: One Hour.
Lynchpins: Additional ten minutes of casting time  each. Magic of Shadow, Duration (Optional), Dispel Word (Optional).

A square area of force forms wherever the caster directs, limited only by the caster's range of sight.  The  ‘wall’ forms parallel to the ground, and then falls with the same amount of force as if it had been a foot-thick brick wall. Normally, the Falling Wall disappears when it hits the ground.

Spell Type: Summoning.
Casting Zime: One Hour
Lynchpins: Additional ten minutes casting time each. Magic of Shadow (Optional for Logrus Sorcery), Target (Optional for Logrus Sorcery), Number of Porcupines, Trigger.

Spell Type: Summoning
Casting Zime: One and a Half Hours
Lynchpins: Additional ten minutes casting time each. Magic of Shadow (Optional for Logrus Sorcery), Target (Optional for Logrus Sorcery), Trigger.
*Bubble Stream
Bubbles stream from the caster’s hands, and swirl
around the target. Each bubble contains a concentration of feelings, captured from some place in Shadow where psyche is broadcast, so that a strong emotion is emitted when a bubble bursts. The closer the burst,  the  more likely the victim will be affected. One by one, the bubbles will swoop in, strike the target, and burst. The target will then feel whatever emotions he or she would feel, if that event had just happened to him or her. Basically, this is a distraction spell, keeping the victim from concentrating properly on fighting, spell-casting, power-summoning, or quick movement.
Spell Type: Summoning.
Casting Time: One Hour, plus an additional Fifteen Minutes for each additional emotion beyond the first
Lynehpins: Additional fifteen minutes casting time each. Magic o( Shadow, Hand Motions (Optional), Name of Target (Optional), Type of Emotion (Optional, but one Lynchpin per emotion specified), Trigger (Optional), Dispel Word (Optional), and Quantity of Bubbles (Optional).

Spell Type: Summoning. Casting Time: Two Hours.
Lynchpins: Additional five minutes casting time each.
Magic of Shadow, Name of Target (Optional), Duration (Optional), Oispel Word (Optional).

*Why break into somebody’s mind with a battering ram or a pickaxe, if you can coax them into handing you the keys7 Under the influence o( a “Warm Fuzzy” spell, the target will feel safe, willing to trust the caster.  If successful, the victim will be easy meat for Imperatives, or any other invasive spell. As with other invasive spells, the
victim’s Psyche must be overcome. Also, unless the victim has  a  relatively  inferior  Psyche,  there  must  be  at  least some positive feelings for the caster. It might also  be called a ludas spell; it only works if cast by those you like or trust.
Spell Type: Invasive.
Casting Time: One Hour.
Lynchpins: Additional five minutes casting time each. NameZDescription of Subject, Name of Caster's Current Shadow location, Name of Subject’s location in Shadow, Duration (Optional), Dispel Word (Optional).

*Astral Club
This spell conjures a shimmering, translucent rod of force, that sails through the air from the caster’s hand. Being insubstantial until contact, it is impossible to parry with conventional weapons. The main advantage of this spell is that it is fast, and that an ignorant target may attempt to parry rather than dodge.
Spell Type: Summoning.
Casting Time: Thirty Minutes
Lynchpins: Additional ten minutes casting time each. Magic of Shadow (Optional (or Logrus Sorcery), Hand Motions, Trigger.
