Is there such a thing a dummies guide to the abilities?
Eg possibly wrong, caught up on flora, fauna and cosmos

  • Time Shifting - elongate or compress time for self

  • Philosomancy - (pure speculation) ability to visualise and run through potential outcomes of a situation applying known and speculated variables, think Dr Strange and the time stone in Infinity war

  • Second Mind - splitting of mind allowing 2+ tasks simultaneously. Possibly similar to Alar and the game Seek the Stone referenced in ‘The Name of the Wind’

  • Astral Thinking - not a clue

  • Tome Kindling - ability to copy personal knowledge/memory in to a book. External back up of the human mind? Possibly required skill to access knowledge/memories left by others?

  • Peering Arts - seeing what isn’t there, what others can’t see, default out of box problem solving, scrying, fortune telling, reading palimpsest without getting a headache…

Unfortunately we don’t know anything about them really only what we’ve guessed

There is a Magiq affinities topic for speculation on what the affinities could possibly do. I really like your idea for philosomancy.

Also, @Sapphire, if you’re interested, there’s a thread for Weatherwatch Affinities if you’re interested in exploring them, though it looks like you mostly have questions about other guilds’ affinities (which is totally fine!). If you’re just interested in general ideas about all guild affinities, then you should definitely check out the thread that BrokenVoid linked to!

Thanks @Remus
I’m interested in them all, I like having at least a rough idea of what’s possible.
Weatherwatch and Thornmouth are my polyguilds so I guess I have a special focus on them.
I assume that all magiq can be done by anyone, but your guild affinities make a spell stronger/more likely to succeed?
Or are you limited to you guild affinity? Are there magiq classifications that aren’t linked to a guild, too powerful or to weak to be noted?

Edit: Same questions in more appropriate thread.

These are all great questions! You should probably ask them over in the Magiqal Affinities thread!

The books are the best place to get caught on the the narrative so far, the other best place is the Wiki! But beware it’s full of spoilers for the books!

Good to see you biting the bullet and signing up, @Callum_Hutchings. :cjsmile:

The books are the best place to start as they include a through line narrative that isn’t available anywhere else. A narrative that expands the world and future books.
