The ability to read the ebb and flow of the arcane as it is tugged and pulled by the forces of the universe, allowing them to change their vision to see magical auras or cast their minds eye across the world to other places, and even locate lost objects. The study of the chaotic entities that dwell beyond the known realms in the Abyss, demonologists often claim to seek to combat such creatures should and incursion into the world occur, though few keep to such noble ideals and many instead see these beings as tools to be used, and risk becoming tools of the very things they sought to control. Such powers are used by those seeking to travel instantly across the world or planes. Magic that gathers tendrils of arcane power and forces a form upon it, creating matter, creatures and even bridges to other realms. Some practitioners of the arcane specialise in the lifting of these curses, either by sheer force of abjuration magic, or fulfilling the curse's requirements, such as returning a lost ring or tending to a long forgotten gravestone. Whether it be an ancient sword that binds itself to the wielder or a fair maiden cursed with a disfigurement by a witch, curses are a plague upon those afflicted with them. With many generations of magic users having made their mark on Tolas, as well as a myriad of cultists that enacted dark rituals heedless of the pain they would cause, not to mention the foolish peoples of the world encroaching onto the territories that had long been claimed by the Fey or touched by divine beings, the presence of curses can be found throughout the world. It is common for those seeking to protect themselves to employ such magicks, without the need for bulky armour which can hinder spell casting.

Spells of a protective nature, wards and spells that dispels or counters others. Other, less organised magicks include occultism and the esoteric powers of psionics, which can perform acts similar to the structured schools of magic.

Others however are able to tap into magic sources, such as from their bloodlines or through channeling the powers of their gods through prayers and holy symbols. The eight schools of magic, as defined by the college of Telinor, are separated primarily by function, with the most well known of magic being those that can be duplicated by wizards. Magic spread across the planes as mortals mastered the many forms of magic, binding their will to the formless powers of the universe and invoking it with the words of arcane power.ДЄs races arrived in Tolas, some formed centres of learning and arcane study, such as in Telinor and Osana, two societies that rely heavily on magic and share its power with its people. Such powers were gifted to mortals as they devoted their lives to the powers of these gods, and eventually mortals, the first believed to have been dragons, learned to replicate these magical powers. Magic, in the form it is now, is believed to have first been used by the gods, who gave shape to the raw chaos of the forces of the planes and used them to craft their own domains in the heavens.
