The spells sorcerers use are all invocations of magical power that draw upon extradimensional entities. In some cases, these entities are known to the earthly realm: gods, spirits, and other archetypes. In many instances, however, they are entities wholly unknown to mortal historians and theologians, their names and invocations revealed only to those with the magic to plumb the depths of the multiverse and discover them.
- Abbridon: The Lantern of Heaven, Light of Righteousness. Abbridon is an angelic higher being associated with order and truth, called upon for magic associ- ated with revealing the truth or banishing darkness and deception. He is often depicted as a beautiful androgynous figure in flowing robes, with peacock feathered wings (the “eyes” of the feathers being his symbol) and carrying a torch or lantern. Sometimes addressed as “The Abbridon,” some mystics have suggested Abbridon may be a multifaceted entity or collective class of higher angelic beings, perhaps even an office held by one of them. Abbridon is also one of the three entities making up the mystic trinity of the Modrossus, along with Heshem and Lamal.
- Ahgrazul: Archmage of Atlantis, the Explorer. Ahgrazul was a mighty archmage in ancient Atlantis, best known as a seer and diviner. He first explored the Cosmic Coil and blazed paths for the mystics who would follow him. Legend says Ahgrazul foretold Atlantis’s fall, but he departed for worlds beyond before the island- continent sank beneath the waves.
- Aion: An entity who embodies cyclical time, Aion was known to Hellenic culture as a god, the father of the seasons, and surrounded by the ever-spinning zodiac. Sorcerers know he is an entity of both time and fate magics alike, and those who invoke him control such powers.
