Magic and Karmic Traditions of Aventuria

The art of using magic and karma developed in several independent ways in Aventuria. These methods, collectively called Traditions, differ in their understanding of their power, their origins, their effects, their practical application of spells, chants, and the artifacts they use. Spells from different Traditions can be very different in appearance and application. It may be possible to learn a spell from an unfamiliar Tradition, but you would suffer a penalty of 2 and could not use modifications on the spell.
