BASIC COMBAT MAGIC
As the Siddha divide magic into the realms of Elementalism, Vivacism, and Spiritualism, so are the basic effects of their magic, in terms of attack, defense, advantage, and overcoming advantage. Elemental magic can affect matter and energy by manipulating Akashic forces, Vivacist magic can affect living beings through the manipulation of Prana, and Spiritualist magic can affect sentient creatures through manipulation of Shakti.
INTERMEDIATE COMBAT MAGIC
Intermediate Siddha magic in the three realms is concerned with the primordial forces aligned along the “movement” axis, and the “pattern” axis. Primary Elemental forces are aligned as follows:
Towards Movement: Wind
Away from Movement: Stone
Towards Pattern: Water
Away from Pattern: Fire
