3057 Arcane Power: Protective Charms. By Nitholiak VonSchlichten RHcrow Magic comes in many forms and types. Many seems to overlook the usefullness of protective charm s in their everyday lives. From charms that deflect dark energy to simple locking charms, they effect most citizens of Aegis. :: Protective charms can be split into two categories: Spell and Runic. :: Runic charms are used for to protect doors, chests and other property from theft or destructi n. Only those experienced enough in rune enchanting can master this ability. But for those who do possess it, it makes for a very profitable source of magical revenue. :: Protective Spells are different from the runic charms. Protective spells can protect vast areas from disturbance. Most cities in Aegis have powerful protective spells cast over them. This means nobody can destroy parts of the cities. The only exception is dark magic. Protective spells can also be cast on a much smaller scale. Forming shields against arrows. Or just supplementing your own armor. :: Both types of Protective Charms require much study and practice. Do not get discouraged if you fail repeatedly. Practice must be done for months.
