Foreword

My spells!

Well, I know many people are against Solar Circle Sorceries that enhance one person. I happen not to be. I think they can be interesting and flavorful, and the things they do, really, only they could do. I have had them on my mind since a person I know made a Solar Circle enhancement that was a year-long invisible soak-enhancement... and it just did not *feel* to me like a Solar Sorcery, and I pictured in that moment what a Solar Circle Enhancement would be like. I know some people are against it, but let us agree to disagree, right? .. be Some of those effects echo the Prismatic Arrangement of Creation. Again, there is a very good reason - it is a Style that not only do I love, but I always thought was very much Sorcerous - you become an Automaton and a Living Manse - before the Sidereal Hardback, that was a Sorcerous thing. In the Core, and... until then, really, Martial Arts were... Martial Arts, and Sorcery did transmutation - Invulnerable Skin of Bronze, Incomparable Body Arsenal, Wood Dragon's Claw... I always liked those, but they seemed to fall by the wayside. So I am spicing up this niche of Sorcery I always found fascinating.

One thing to consider is how things work in many spells - Incomparable Body Arsenal lasts for hours and allow you to easily recover the Essence spent to activate it. A spell that works for only one hour, or less, or requires a sacrifice great enough not to be used often, will likely be stronger than it. Different type, different situations, different usefulness. Another thing is visuals - Sorcery is *limitless*. A variaton of a spell may look completely different from Sorcerer to Sorcerer. I have to remind myself of that and try not to make them vague and open to stunt like Charms - it seems to me Spells are always the same, but there are as many variations as there are Sorcerers(and I play a Sorcerer whose version of Wood Dragon's Claws are liquid black diamond, and whose version of the Eye and the Mouth is a melodiously-singing bird of paradise... and Mela's Resplendent Wings, below, may make Angel Wings, or Garda Wings, or Leathery Bat Wings or even Mechanical Clockwork Wings...)

I really enjoyed these. I didn't even pay much attention to the mechanics or power level, as I thoroughly enjoyed them. Good work. -- GreenLantern

Thank you. Muchly ^^ Took awhile to put it here because... I kept trying to think of something more to say. But I can't! ~GoldenCat
