Skill Ranks:
Natural skill level indicates a persons actual knowledge of the subject.
Magi skill level indicates the magical effect that may be added.
The two are multiplied to determine the Value Points (VP) for the skill. These points are applied in a variety of ways, depending on the skill in question. Outcomes may also be affected by the material used or other contexts.
Mana usage is determined by the skill in question. Typically crafting skills use VP mana points, while martial and physical skills use Magi level mana points.
The skill user may use any amount of VP up to their maximum.
Magic
Source: Elemental power that fuels the spell
Clade: The type of power channeled
Class: The primary way that power is manipulated
Spell: The final level of detail
A complete spell requires all four parts. Each may be at a different level of mastery, using the same ranks as the natural skills. The points of each are multiplied to determine final effect.
Mana usage = Spell points, but each level of mastery above novice at the source level halves usage. A Spellcaster could have a fireball spell at 4, projected class at 2, flame clade at 3 and Fire Source at 2 (Spell points 48, 24 mana used). The spell points could reflect damage on a direct hit, or be used to cover a larger area at reduced damage.
Higher level spellcasters can use lower points than their maximum at their discretion.
